...withholding this information for over 20 years. George Gey, a researcher at Johns Hopkins Hospital had experimented on her tissues, putting them into culture so that they would replicate themselves over and over, to grow a long line of HeLa cells. At first, Henrietta’s identity had been concealed and changed to Helen Lane, a false identity. The Lacks family, mainly Henrietta, had been viewed as abstractions, merely just an idea of a person, thoughts floating around that carried no meaning. It was common for the scientific community to use...

...Scandalous! She quickly put the documents back into her purse and hurried away to tell real authorities about this new evidence. Arriving back at the front of the airport where most of the policemen were stationed, Amy found the detective eating a maple donut and sipping from a thermos of long black coffee. “Excuse me sir, but I think I found something that can help with the case of the Palmer Death!” Amy declared. “Oh, you again. Well, what is your evidence that you claim you found?” He snapped. Amy yanked the papers from her purse. The detective snatched them from her. He flipped through them, barely even skimming them it as his face turned a bright red. “What does this even say? I can’t read a thing, you unprofessional hooligan!” He snapped. “I think the stains are more important than the actual document!” Amy defended herself. “And why might that be?” “I have a theory that these documents were inspected earlier in the day… Maybe even before the murder since they look like fresh coffee...

...It supports those who have been having difficulties with their learning and has particular applications in business, sport, training and education. This model focuses on the best way for a student to learn and retain new information based on sensory modality. (Fleming, 2011) When a student knows his/her learning style preferences, he/she is able to learn more effectively and store and recall the information being taught. “The last group in the four part typology is the group who like to experience their learning by using all their senses, including touch, hearing, smell, taste and sight. This group is regularly described in the literature as kinesthetic (K). They want concrete, multi-sensory experiences in their learning. Although learning by doing matches their needs they can easily learn conceptual and abstract material provided it arrives with suitable analogies, real life examples, or metaphors. They learn theory through its application.” (Fleming, 1995) Upon taking this test, I realized that I have a strong kinesthetic preference for learning. To take in the information I prefer to uses all my senses – sight, touch, taste, smell, and hearing. (Fleming, 2011) People with a kinesthetic preference for learning seem to do best with laboratories, field trips, field tours, and examples of principles, lecturers who give real-life examples, hands-on approaches, trial and error, exhibits, samples, photographs, and many other forms of learning.

...Orange, and even told him his first name, which could jeopardize his own protection. Mr. White whimpers when he realized Mr. Orange, who he thought was his true friend, has betrayed him and could not hold out his overwhelming devastation and cries out loud. Even when Mr. Orange confessed at the end, he sounds as he is truly sorry and feels guilty. He also seems in pain not only because he is physically hurt but also because of the pain he felt for being unfaithful to Mr. White, who trusted him. I feel that Mr. Orange has also developed a deep friendship with Mr. White because after Mr. White protected him from Joe and Eddie, Mr. Orange could have just kept silent till the end but he revealed his true identity because he was truly sorry for violating the trust Mr. White has given him. Even though he had first faked his friendship with Mr. White for the sake of his undercover to succeed, Mr. Orange ended up liking Mr. White and considered him as his real friend. To Mr. Orange, being honest with Mr. White at the end was the last thing he can do to appreciate Mr. White for the trust he has given him and also for saving his life. He continuously says, "I'm sorry" out loud to Mr. White because he feels terrible for deceiving...

...attack and dies. Holy game-changer, Batman. Through an amazing combination of good luck, clear thinking, and readerly suspension of disbelief, Brian manages to crash-land the plane into a lake and escape with nothing more than some bruises. Still strapped onto his belt is the hatchet his mother had given him before he boarded the plane. Brian realizes he needs to find food and shelter so he can last until he's rescued. It's just like Survivor… but real and totally terrifying. With his trusty hatchet at his side, Brian finds some berries, constructs a shelter of sorts out of some tree branches and a cave (this kid was definitely a Boy Scout), and meets a bear in the woods. Woven throughout the narrative are Brian's thoughts and memories of his family, and the "secret" which led to his parents' divorce—his mother had been involved with another man before the breakup. As the days pass, Brian is attacked by a porcupine, learns how to make fire, makes a fishing spear from a tree branch, and eats some really gross stuff. Try not to read this book while you're having lunch—just a friendly tip. All the while, Brian is counting on rescuers showing up at any time. When a rescue plane does fly overhead, though, Brian misses it, seeing it just in time to watch it fade off into the distance. Ouch. Brian's reaction,...

...feelings back for him. This one-sided love causes him to ponder and lose focus of what is really important, keeping himself and his troops alive and well. As he is lying in his foxhole, he looks at pictures of Martha; he can't help to feel, "More than anything, he wanted Martha to love him as he loved her " As shown, he just wants to be with her and to share a love with her. Over and over again, he would think about her; sometimes in foxholes, sometimes while marching, even at times of danger. This lack of focus on the real dilemma, their situation in the war, will be a costly one. His love for Martha was unhealthy and almost obsessive. He still remembers clearly "touching that left knee" of Martha's. Even out in the field he still reminisces how her knee felt. During a mission to destroy some tunnels, Cross imagines the tunnel collapsing on him and Martha. He also wonders if she is still a virgin or not and wonders why her letter are signed "love". This distraction and incompetence of himself lead to the death of one of their fellow soldiers, Ted Lavender. He has been shot and killed, partly because of Cross' lack of focus on the situation. He keeps to himself as he blames the incident on only himself. Shockingly, as they were waiting for a chopper to take his body away, he digs a foxhole. While sitting in the hole, crying, he was also thinking of " Martha's smooth young face, thinking he loved her more than anything, more than his men " at the same time. This abnormal love for...

To stage-right is the front door of the flat, leading to the communal corridor. Archie enters stage-right, in the corridor, paces for a moment, and then stops outside the door of the flat.

...Essay- 12 Years a Slave Rich to poor. Free to imprisoned. Accepted and now treated like a thing. This was the normal routine of black me, who were kidnapped and sold by white people. The movie 12 Years a slave shows in a real way this horrible situation in this difficult time. When someone told me something about slavery, I could hardly understand and feel how slaves felt back during the 1800s. Slaves were brutally beaten and worked all day long. Slave masters had no mercy with the black. They have beaten them sometimes until they were dead. What students are taught in lessons gives only the view of how slaves were treated. Because of this perspective I felt sorry for them and I felt lucky to be born in this century. I think the whole truth must be seen to understand. Born and raised as a free man, Solomon Northup was robbed of his free papers, and then he was sold into slavery. When Northup was brought into slavery, his first master, William Ford, was a kind master. He spoke only good things and encouraged his slaves to do better. But Ford was just one of thousands who treated his slave like, let’s say in a nice way. There were not many masters like him. He never beat them with a whip or humiliated them in front of their peers. So in comparison to other slave holders he was nice. I think this changes the view of the viewers of what slavery was like during this time. There may have been many slave masters who were brutal to their slaves, but slave masters like Ford changes...

...Watergate Written for Submission to Term Paper Warehouse Author Note: This paper was prepared for HIST 101 Type Classes Abstract The “Watergate Scandal” was a very important event that occurred in American history that occurred on 17 June 1972. This event surrounded the FBI, CIA, Democratic and Republican parties, and the resignation of the President of the United States of America. 69 top government officials were charged with crimes such as perjury, conspiracy, obstruction of justice, illegal campaigning, wiretapping, and even burglary. The nature of the activities behind the event-raised flags in areas never considered before and forced a lot of dedicated US citizens to lose faith in their government. Many of the details about this crime that happened over 40 years ago have since surfaced and have been brought into the light. Although, the main reason why it even occurred at all is still a mystery. The outcomes behind this mystery are as numerous as the stars in the sky. The Watergate Scandal When did it happen? On 17 June 1972, 5 men were arrested for burglarizing the Watergate offices of the Democratic National Committee in Washington D.C. The five men were Bernard L. Barker, Virgilio R. Gonzales, James W.

...To the reader, I bet you are wondering what this is all about, or perhaps who I even am. Let us start with a greeting, shall we? Hi, I’m Celina Gonzales, a college freshman taking up BS Legal Management. This E-portfolio encapsulates my entire writing journey of sorts in my ENGLCOM (Basic Communication and Study Skills) course throughout the second term of my first year in university. In here, you will be able to read about various ideas—from the meaning of the word “infinite” beyond the concept taught to us in our Math classes, to the causes of the Philippines’ lagged progress (no, it is not solely due to corruption), and, well, Korean Pop. With all these topics mentioned, I hope you appreciate how much I have grown in terms of flexibility, as I was never comfortable with writing beyond my interests. The entire journey was a roller coaster, thanks to the great deal of papers that came with strict deadlines, high standards, along with numerous revisions inked in either pink, green, red, or blue. However, I believe that all those days figuring out how exactly my professors want me to revise parts of my papers and whatnot are worth it—The innumerable scratch papers that I was armed with in the beginning of the term are gone. I can now write an article of great quality without having to frantically jot down my ideas on a separate sheet of paper. I believe that this growth of mine is impossible without my professors. Therefore, I would like to extend my gratitude to them: To...

...Analysis “The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson “The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson is about a lottery, taking place in a small village. This though, is no ordinary lottery. On the 27th of June, the entire village gather at a square, where they begin collecting stones. Then all the villagers are assembled, the head of the lottery, goes to the stage, with a black box full of paper slips, one for each family household. The families names are then called one by one, and the head of the family goes to the stage and picks a slip of paper. When all the slips has been spread, the family possessing the slip marked with a black dot is the chosen one.all the slips are then collected, and a special pile of slips are made. Each member of that family, has to pick a new slip, and the person who gets the dot-marked slip, is stoned, and probably killed.

The People we hear about in the story, are the residents of the village, where the story takes place.

...A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens Ebenezer Scrooge acts as the main character within this novel in which he is depicted as a “squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, old sinner as self-contained and as solitary as an oyster”. He is incapable of relationships. However, throughout his life of suffering he is guided by the Ghosts of Christmas past, Christmas Present and of Christmas future. A Christmas Carol is a celebration of Christmas and the good it inspires. Scrooge was a cold and old disgruntled man that saw no purpose in life, wouldn’t accept changes, and wished to be alone. The heaviest rain, snow, hail and sleet were just like any other days that had no effect on him. Nobody ever stopped him in the streets to greet him or even ask what time of the day it was. The only relationship he had was with his lifelong business partner Marley, who had been dead for seven years when the novel began. He despises the poor and hates any part of life that is in relation to happiness or spending money. Scrooge’s appearance has been made very “cold and bitter”. For example, “his thin lips blue”. Scrooge’s personality attitude towards the poor is horrible, for example, when the charity guys come into the room and asked Scrooge if he wishes to make a donation he replies no, this makes the readers dislike Scrooge and disagree with the points that he has to make like, “it is a good thing that the Union work houses are still in operation”. Scrooge is a cold-hearted...
