The annual loss of coral cover has sped up as well, averaging 1.45 percent annually since 2006. This pummeling, occurring too quickly for many reefs to recover, currently leaves the Great Barrier Reef with a total coral cover of less than 14 percent, down from 28 percent in 1985. The findings

The Great Depression was the worst collapse in the history of American capitalism. Throughout the 1930s, neither the free market nor the federal government was able to get the country working again.

No longer do we see in the United States two week long acute hospital stays after major surgeries, strokes or other injuries that affect the activities of daily living (ADL). The hospitals discharge patients back home much sooner than before or transfer them to facilities for further recovery. Unfortunately some of these facilities are long term acute care hospitals or nursing homes where continuing daily therapy is very limited.

One of my favorite inspirational lines of all time is from Jim Valvano during his ESPY’s speech in 1993 where he proclaimed” Don’t Give up, Don’t Ever Give Up”. Malala, Gabrielle, Jeanna, and the survivors from the Chilean Coal Mine catastrophe all had this mindset when faced with their predicaments. They were not going to give up, and were going to fight to regain their function and their will to live; namely, to keep on hoping and to avoid despair. Many actions enabled these people to stay hopeful

The role of the brain in cognitive functions is to
