Douglas Mawson, 'Into The Unknown :Into The Unknown'

     An example of adversity is the Holocaust - Hitler‘s plan to exterminate the Jews. In the memoir, Night, we discover how Elie Wiesel changes in response to his concentration camp experiences. The separation from his loved ones and the horrible conditions of these camps affect Elie immensely. Elie is affected in the following ways:

Many people throughout history have also faced adversity and have been resilient through it. For example, Tyler Perry; he had a terrible childhood, he was physically and sexually abused as a child, kicked out of high school, and tried to commit suicide twice in his lifetime. Still, through all his hardships, he produced and starred in his first theater production, I Know I’ve Been Changed, which failed. Therefore he obtained odd jobs to pay for the production; finally on the seventh run the show broke through. Through all his hardships he never gave up and today has a successful career as a writer, director, and actor. Oprah Winfrey also endured a rough childhood because of sexual abuse, she had a child at fourteen who passed away two weeks after. She continued on to finish high school with honors and get a scholarship for college. She worked her way up from TV anchor to a creator of her own network. Scientist Stephen Hawking was diagnosed with ALS and through his colleague, friends, and family’s support he became a great scientist. Through his perseverance Hawking managed many accomplishments such as his published book on the theories of the Big Bang. Nelson Mandela was also a person with great resilience who dreamed of racial equality and spent 27 years in prison for it.

John Karkauer novel, Into the Wild tells a true life story about a young man

Throughout history there has always been adversity, even today there are people who struggle to cope with it in their everyday lives, but some are able to overcome it as individuals and move on. But sometimes there are situations so adverse it takes more than one person to overcome mentally and/or physically.

John Krakauer’s novel Into The Wild, tells the story of a young man who intends to disappear from society, and contains numerous relatable themes. Although difficult for many to understand his reasoning in doing so, Krakauer intends to demonstrate to readers the positives and negatives of such an experience. Upon thorough examination of this piece of writing, it is possible to truly gain a vast amount of self-knowledge in relation to the text. A tale full of invitations to face ourselves, John Krakauer’s Into The Wild prompts me to examine myself in respect to concepts of great significance such as materialism, conformity, and intimacy.

Without overcoming adversity Jim Abbott would never be the first baseball player with only one hand.Malala Yousafzai would have never brought attention to girls education.Many of the runners from the Boston Marathon would have never ran the race again, and even never race again their life. Adversity, is hard to overcome, but ask is it worth it in the

A great successful researcher not only rely on the numerous published papers rather depends more on how many scientific talks has been given to fellow colleagues and peers. The text, ‘When the Scientist Presents’ written by Jean Luc Lebrun outlines essential aspects to give a science talk and ideas are illustrated through detailed examples of scientific presentations. The book is divided majorly into four parts: Content selection, audience expectation, the slides and the presenter. The information contained in the book help a scientist to prepare about the content filtering, audiences expectation and presenters gesture to give science talks.

Although the author did not state the exact purpose of writing his biography, I believe R.A. Dickey

These strong survivors pose as teachers and role models by revealing strengths, weaknesses and survival techniques. Wiesel and Ten Boom survive against the odds, but not without physical and emotional scars.

Elie Wiesel experienced an unfortunate experience that changed his life, and he used it to change the lives of others. He brutally went through the holocaust, and his life was never the same. He went through so much at a young age, and lived to tell the tale.

Determination When faced with problems, the people with determination are the ones who solve and vanquish it. After a catastrophic event, there are always people who live to tell the tale. Many of these survivors used their determination to survive against physical, mental, and emotional hardships. Elie Wiesel, Paul Rusesabagina, and John F. Kennedy are examples of this. In the memoirs, Night by Elie Wiesel and An Ordinary Man by Paul Rusesabagina, and the article, “Sixty Years Later, the Story of PT-109 Still Captivates” by Stephen Plotkin, Elie Wiesel, Paul Rusesabagina, and John F. Kennedy were intent on staying alive in times where it was easier to give up.

Adversity can be seen in many different ways. Some people look at adversity as a learning experience, while others view adversity as a situation marked with misfortune. When a person is faced with adversity, rather than viewing it as something to hate, they should see it as a opportunity to grow. In the stories by Doris Lessing, W.D Wetherell and Alice Walker, they all show different types of challenges each character had to over come and their journey to do so. These stories all shared similar outcomes, they demonstrate how each character used an obstacle they were faced with, and turned it into a beneficial experience and how it shaped them into the person they are today.

I believe that Douglas Mawson endured the most adversity while contributing to science, he suffered in many ways, including losing his friends and his sled dogs, he also had a lack of food and energy, and lastly he had his soles of his feet were actually beginning to fall off. The seasoned explorer, Douglas Mawson had suffered a lot through his race; he contributed to science, yet still was able to survive. Henrietta Lacks had her cells taken for scientific purposes without permission from her family. Phineas Gage survived an extreme dynamite accident which resulted in him having a hole in his head made by an iron rod. Although you can make a good argument on who endured the most adversity while contributing to science, Douglas Mawson did suffer a lot; and there are many ways to support it.

Rogue Legacy is an indie Platformer that has some rogue-like elements. The object of the game is to explore and defeat 4 unique bosses each in their own environment to unlock what is behind the golden gate. In a procedurally generated world, the player chooses a champion and challenges the “Castle” with the default ability to jump and slash with their sword, along with secondary abilities, such as magic attacks (which use MP). Within the castle, players will encounter many risky obstacles but will always find a reward hiding not too far away. If the champion dies as a result of losing health points (HP) an heir will take their place. Upon choosing an heir you are given 3 randomly generated characters to choose from, no two heirs are exactly alike, often having some sort of disorder /”trait”, and a large part of the fun is deciding which (slightly ill-equipped) heir you 'd like to pass your adventure to.
