Synopsis

A man stands blindfolded in a firing line. He is dirty, wearing rags, and looks as though he has been tortured. It is clear by his surroundings that he is being held at a type of military base. His skin color differentiates him from that of his captures, who wear cleanly pressed uniforms. Their expressions are emotionless and stern. The man shakes but remains where he stands.
A flashback takes place. We see the man’s home and himself as a child. His childhood home is small and modest. It is not dirty, but it is lived-in. His mother prays in ...

Wall painting can be done by any person as long as they understand and have the instruments and equipment required.

The issue of gene patenting is an interesting one, bringing up concerns about the extent to which we ‘own’ our cells, and what rights we have with them. While some believe that, for instance, organ donors do not have the right to tissue that they have donated, others think that there must be some sense of bodily ownership that must be accounted for in issues like these. To that end, the work of Schleiter (2009), Caplan (2010), Satel (2008), and Rubin (2010) will be examined in order to see the ways in which organ and tissue donation intersect with ...

When I first held Angie in my arms I felt her smiling. Her little pink face was twisting in a happy grimace and she instantly made me laugh. She looked so funny with her two-three curly stripes of fair hair, her big, round eyes, an almost invisible nose and a toothless wide open mouth that seemed to shout her ecstasy of being alive. When she started walking I realized that she would be a naughty child. She was so energetic, constantly jumping, running, falling, then rising up and jumping and running again. She started to grow beautiful thick blonde ...

This statement is in response to the latest email I received from the dean of Fulton school of engineering. The letter accuses me of engaging in examination malpractices. The Dean claims that, according to the academic integrity rules EGR 217, I am guilty of cheating. Going into deeper detail, he claims that I cheated in question number 9 through the use of a mobile phone. This claim has left me deeply saddened and heartbroken. I am a student who values honesty and integrity, and as such, I would never even think of committing such an act. I have been ...

It was Friday morning; the busy shoppers were doing their last-minute errands for Halloween. The store was bustling with chattering people, enthusiasm was in the air. It was cold and windy outside but the warmth inside the grocery store provided a relaxing heat for a comfortable browsing of candies that would soon go on sale as quickly as the occasion was over.
One family got their carts full for the day. It was a cheerful lot except for one tall and pale-faced girl wearing a smug expression on her face, her full attention on texting. She was a very ...

She knew it would be difficult. She knew people would look at them. She knew there would be challenges that would seem insurmountable. She knew all of this before even talking to him for the first time. But she didn’t want to think about it. What would happen in the future ?
He only knew that he loved her at first sight. He only knew that he never wanted to leave her side. He only knew that he didn’t want to think about the complications loving her would cause.
They met on December 8th. Their ...

Since I started expressing myself through visual thinking and design, it has been three years now down the road for me, which have been very resourceful in expanding my art practice. My specialization in the practice is on the moving image pathway. On a personal level, I particularly enjoy doing interactive design, visual design as well as photography. Although my most preference in art and design lies towards graphic design, I have come to learn that good and smart work is developed once a person steps out of the comfort zone and tries new ideas, which are challenging and ...

Despite signifying quite a general concept, the word “team” tends to be primarily associated with the sports. Most frequently it implies a relatively small group of people involved in some common activity. However, in a modern society this word is already widely used in many different spheres that presuppose and focus on the humans’ interaction and, as a result, it can most brightly show its essence and value. The concept of team became often applied in regards to the working environment, since exactly the workplace is where people need and have to cooperate most to see some results, gain ...

Her hands shook, each finger twitching in a frenzied and broken rhythm that no one could have possibly understood. That was okay, the rhythm of her fingers matched the erratic beating of her heart at that moment. She had done something horrible, something that she might never have believed possible of herself in a million years. Worse than that though, so much so in fact that she felt it as a sudden awakening in the pit of her stomach, she’d enjoyed it. She had put a gun to a man’s head and pulled the trigger, and she ...

With a Gin Vermouth in her hand, Harper sat down at the kitchen table. She took a sip, and licked the rim of the glass, eyeing the two Valium pills on the table. The lingering aftertaste of love-making was soon washed away, as she heard a voice behind her. “Not letting go deforms you, and the truth sets us free. Joe is gone, Harper. You should be gone, too.” She recognized the voice being her own, she recognized the thought being a product of her own mind.
“I am crazy,” she thought and a tear came flickering down her face. “I am crazy, ...

Complete the following matching exercise titled, “Race: The Power of Illusion.” (Reference: http://www.pbs.org/race/002_SortingPeople/002_00-home.htm.) Post your results and describe your experience in trying to complete the matching exercise. What are your thoughts on how we approach diversity in the workplace based on our perceptions of race?

I only obtained a 50/50 score. It is true that our definition of race is subjective. Some people sometimes depend their judgment of who they are as a person based on the color of their skin and hair, shape of their nose, height/stature, etc. I was wrong. Some individuals have the freedom to identify themselves (that ...

Short Story – Margaret Jams

Two little girl scouts made their way down the quite neighbourhood street, dragging a rickety wagon behind them. Its wheels squeaked on every rotation, burdened by the dozens of boxes of cookies. The girls very in a cheerful spirit, singing songs that children often sing, skipping after every step of two they took. It was a sunny day, yet the sun seemed a little dim, its light and warmth touching the earth, but not quite. Autumn was stirring, causing leaves to waft down from the drying branches of trees. The song of the girls, the beat of their steps, their intermittent giggling, and ...

Reflection of working with women during pregnancy and in the postnatal period

I first met Ashley at the Nepean antenatal clinic. At the time, she was 30+1 gestational weeks. I established from her history that this was her third pregnancy. Her first pregnancy had been in the year 2001. She had not carried the pregnancy to term because she had had a miscarriage. Her second pregnancy was in 2010. For this pregnancy, she had a normal vaginal delivery at 37+1 weeks. She had given birth to a live female infant, Isobel, who weighed 3140 grams. She had attended the visit with Isobel who is now 2 yrs old. A UA was performed ...

In the recent past, exceptionally premature babies have been dying at a very higher rate. It is assumed that they only have 50% chance of survival. Newborns are also in this mix as they are at bigger jeopardy of developing complications in future (Whitfield & Peters, 2004). To prevent this, both the infants and the premature babies are usually kept in incubators until they are stable. In cases where the new born is stable and does not need incubators, Kangaroo Mother Care is used. This involves a direct skin-to-skin contact between mother and the new born. One of the main reasons why ...

Being educated to a high standard is an important element of progressing in society. Young people who are growing up without a solid educational grounding may be at a disadvantage later in life. Both in professional and personal life, an education can serve to make a good first impression, instil and sustain the confidence of others, and generally make progression easier in many areas.

Although the education system in many countries is improving, there still seem to be many children in developed countries who are growing up without a solid education. There are many possible reasons for this.

One factor that could influence a child’ ...

It is with the heavy heart and the attitude of someone who has always resided in the western world, that I find the purpose of tattoos to have been blemished. The idea of Tattoo that I am measuring is between two extreme ideas: people, and tribes. People treat tattoos as an expression of individuality; tribes utilize tattoos to be recognised as a unit. What either group has in common is a sense of symbolism by using the body as a medium.
Regardless of time periods, resources, or location, the value of tattoos between western people and aboriginal tribes do share a perspective. ...
