My First Kiss

Everyone dreams of their first kiss and what it would be like, often practicing in the mirror or on our hand, longing for someone else’s sweet lips to touch our own and wonder what it would feel like when it happened. When I was 14, my parents sent me to my grandmother’s home on vacation. I remember, it was a hot summer. It was so hot that you could feel the sweat drip down your body and there was no means of air circulating. However, I felt the boredom kick in day after day ...

Abstract: A Bright Star Declined

Over the past 2 decades, IBM reach heights of unprecedented success, down to failure, and up to success again. In 1980, they were lagging in the personal computer business but by 1985, they had taken over 40 percent of the market share (Kanter 46). By 2005, IBM made its exit from the PC business and switched to consulting (Kanter 47-8). This is a drastic shift indeed for a company which provided virtually no consulting services in 1990 to becoming one of the largest services companies some 20 years later.

Photography may seem like just clicking pictures of anything and everything. And that is exactly what the lay man perceives it to be.

Sherwin Bitsui experimental and daring poem “At Deer Springs” is a fascinating work of lyrical and poetic innovation and dreamlike wordplay:

“Turn signals blink through ice in the skin.Snake dreams uncoil,

burrow into the spine of books.Night spills from cracked eggs.Thin hands vein oars in a canyon bed.We follow deer tracks back to the insertion of her tongue.” The topic with which I choose to examine this poem is the conflict between nature and technology. I understand this topic to include issues as vast as the modern human experience in a globalized world, anxiety at the death of the kind of holistic, natural lifestyle that the Native Americans hold ...

Article Review

In my opinion, technology has great potential for connecting rural and public health providers and consumers with resources outside their community, as well as with keeping in touch with them. For example, some nurses use text messages or email messages to stay in close contact with clients and help them remember the details of their health maintenance plan. Being able to keep in touch these ways requires that the clients have a cell phone and know how to operate the device or they have a computer and know how to send an email (Ferguson, 55.November).
