    Whenever someone asks me where I work, I say “The Stranahan Arboretum.” Almost always, they respond with something along the lines of “Wow how did you score that job” or “That must be a very peaceful job.” These assumptions could not be further from the truth. The Stranahan Arboretum is beautiful park owned and ran by the University of Toledo. It is roughly forty seven acres and home to many deer and various bird species. Also, it has a small pond, wooded areas, a river, and a gorgeous assortment of various trees. The arboretum is quiet and surely a peaceful place to go for a walk or have a picnic, but certainly not to work.…

He was young and doing want any young boy likes to do with a four-wheeler and that his go fast. Laura Stone, writer for dontjudgeme.com, writes; “Speaking of those toys… While speeding on his quad (ATV) sans helmet, he smacked into a partially hidden tree stump and flew up in the air an estimated 80 to 120 feet, coming straight down on his head. As he lay there convulsing, the ambulance made its way through the bracken to him. He died in the back of it as they raced back to the hospital, but was able to be brought back to life. He fell into a coma and stayed there for twelve days.” Doug is still looking forward these days and has a recent change in his life.…

    I made my way across the parking lot, towards the entrance to the gym. As I reached the double doors I paused, then slowly turning, I attempted to take in as much of the outside view as I could. I saw a green meadow dotted with a few thoughtfully placed picnic tables, a few baseball, and soccer fields. I also noticed that this place is home to a busy skateboard park right beside a well-kept playground. My pan of the scene had revealed to me that this place has grown into something more than what I had remembered it to be. Today this center welcomes people of all ages. In contrast, when the U.S. Air Force ran this facility it was for military personnel and their adult dependents. It was a simple gymnasium with a couple of minimally groomed baseball diamonds and multipurpose fields, lacking any beauty. Today, the sturdy old building and surrounding fields are a beautiful sight to behold, and maintained by a local community services organization. The quick survey of the sports center had reminded me that this place is still serving the community in a big way with its available venues and activities.…

    “The Meeting” The room is silent other than the steady hum of the air conditioner. Businessmen and location supervisors all sit around a large rectangular table, waiting for the man in charge. There is a projector screen at the head of the table with an opening slide displayed. It reads “Monthly Safety meeting” in plain black text on a white background. A few of the men lean back in their chairs and relax. Two start a casual conversation. Even in the silence of the room I cannot understand them because they are mumbling so quietly. It’s an early Monday morning, and everyone is still a little drowsy from the weekend.…

    The American Revolution, also known as the Revolutionary War, was a significant event that changed the whole world. Although the Revolutionary War lasted only for eight years, the American Revolution started developing years before the first shots at the battle of Lexington and Concord were fired. African-Americans joined the Revolutionary War, because the principles underlying the revolution implied the end of slavery and granting of rights for them. American historian Benjamin Quarles, understood the African-American community's need for equality and freedom. Around 5,000 African-Americans served as soldiers in the Continental Army and about 20,000 in the British Army. The Revolutionary War was a blessing in disguise for many African-Americans, as it paved the way to freedom from slavery and helped them to embark on their journey towards equality and civil rights.…

    I first met Alex Pekker a few years back while in high school. He was a teacher at my school.

So I decided to interview him so I could learn more about his childhood and how he grew up.…

    The purpose of this community profile is to highlight the nurse's role and responsibilities in relation to facilitating health and wellbeing across the health, wellness, illness and age continuum and how this is achieved in a local geographically determined community (which for the purposes of this assignment, will be the town of Middlesbrough). Whitehead (1992) defined health inequalities as “differences in health that are unnecessary, avoidable, unfair and unjust.” These health inequalities are rife in Middlesbrough and, in turn have a knock on effect on the life expectancy of people living in the town which is significantly lower for both men and women than the national average (Middlesbrough Health Profile 2012, DOH). Middlesbrough is also the 8th most deprived local authority area in England according to Middlesbrough Councils Index of Multiple Deprivation…

    When you were younger, has anyone asked you what you wanted to be when you got older? Whether it was a teacher, doctor, lawyer, police officer, engineer or even a firefighter, we all have a dream or desire to be and to do great when we get older. Edward E. Rosenbaum once said: “Doctors are great – as long as you don’t need them.” This quote is not necessarily true; A human being will always need some type of doctor in their life regardless of if they live a healthy lifestyle or not.…

    “Pick up the pace guys, its meatloaf night!” Exclaimed Pleasant Grove High School track coach Bill Saunders. You could see the pain and agony that the athletes were experiencing as they made their final laps around the track in attempt to finish off that day’s workout. The mid afternoon sun was beating down on the young adults and you could see tears of sweat running from their faces.

    My best friend Leah Nepomuceno is one of the strongest people I know, especially when it comes to family. Family to her is everything and she has done all she can to try and keep hers together as a whole. We were in sixth grade swinging on the swings outside at recess, whispering and giggling about our usual gossip when she received news from one of our teachers that we knew was serious by the look on her face and fear in her voice. She came up to us and told her she needed to go the office and that she was being dismissed, she gave me permission to walk with her inside. On the short but long felt walk inside Leah's heart was pounding, her hands were sweating, and her eyes were slowly filling with tears. Her mom was sitting in the big, blue, leather office chair with many of our elementary school teachers huddled around her sharing their sincere heart felt sympathy and much needed support. Leah's mom, Deb, had found out that day that her husband Ron, Leah's dad, was diagnosed with ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. The doctor had told Deb that is was going to slowly take away all of his muscles, eventually killing him and there was no cure for it. This news was heart wrenching for me to hear, since they were my second family, I grew up with them, Ron was my second dad. "It was like the last 11 years of memories with my dad flashed before my eyes and I didn't know what to do besides think of all the things we haven't done that we need to do before he dies," Leah replied when I asked her what her first thought was when she heard the news (Nepomuceno). Just talking to her now about it, 7 years later, is still just as heart breaking and you can hear the sadness in her voice.…
