Why I Should Be Safe From The Giant Mice

. I can’t help but feel out of place in this town, my every public move watched by people by the dozen. I feel like a complete foreigner in my own land, the townsfolk were bitter, cold and unwelcoming. It felt like there was something here, a spooky vibe radiating of every little thing. The town belonged in a book not a thing out of place, not a drunk to be scene, it was every preachers dream.

“Mandy, your dad and I have something we need to talk to you about.” Being the bright-eyed eight year old I was, I would have never suspected what was going to escape my mom’s lips next.

When I first heard we were moving here, I thought to myself. Why did dad have to take this job? I mean I don’t hate it here. I just hate the fact that I didn’t get to tell most of my friends I was leaving. Although, something good came out of this. I get to see an old friend of mine, at least start something over. This house is nicer than the one before. I still remember the time when mom thought there was a rat in the cabinets, man was she scared.

My steps were heavy and meaningful and I felt somewhat human, arms lifting the body, unaware and uncaring of the weight. "I think once I leave I'll give up hunting" I recited to myself as my boots hit every stair in rhythm, "I think once I leave Ill go somewhere new, change my name and find something or someone to love" The word left my tongue as if it was the last time we were seeing each other in this life time. That word was so foreign to what my brain was focused on and It felt nice I

“Are we there yet?” my brother whined. My mom replied, “Almost”. Finally, after three hours in the car I can get out and stretch my legs. When I open the car door I am overwhelmed by the smell of salt. “We’re here!” my dad cheers. Everyone is mingle ing and having side conversations; catching up on what’s been happening the past year. It’s nice to see my relatives again.

I have no idea what the reasons were for her reaction. Then out of nowhere my father, the man I call daddy just lifted up his right foot and kicked my mother, right in the back! My mother felled to the ground on all fours and instantly tears filled her eyes. I yelled, "Daddy don't hurt mama!", the so called men on the Lot started to clear out, all but one, he confronted my father. I will never forget this man, so much so I named one of my own sons after him years later. Charles grabbed my father in a bear hug to hold him away from my mother. Now mind you my father is a big man, six feet, and four inches tall weighing about two twenty-five. Now Charles on the over hand was a small man about five feet eight inches tall and weighing one hundred and fifty pounds. but he put his arms around my father that day and locked my father in place. As my father began to get free, Charles used his words, "don't do this Willie, your baby is watching you!" My father looked down at me and then the ground. For some reason this caused my father to pull away from his anger of being undermined by my mother. without another word, my father walked off and my mother and I followed. Even at that

The test subjects in this study were a population of 40 male mice. These mice were broken into four groups with 10 mice in each group. The mice were housed two per cage within its assigned group and kept on 12:12 light dark cycle with food and water ad libitum. The control group developed normally. The knockout group had its SHANK3 turned off for the duration of their life. The early SHANK3 group began life with its SHANK3 turned off and had it reexpressed when the mice were 14 days old. The late SHANK3 group began life with its SHANK3 turned off and had it reexpressed when the mice were 90 days old. SHANK3 expression will be turned on and off using the RNAi knockdown procedure. Western blots were used to ensure turning the SHANK3 gene on and off was successful.

He chuckled at my change in behavior. “Very well. It was many years ago but yes, I did grow up here. But don’t confuse that with being part of a family. It was purely nonphysical.”

“You’re mean”, I said to my mother with tears rolling down my face, head down and arms folded, while sitting on my bed. My mother walked over to me and sat on my bed. She placed her hand on my leg and said, “Do you really think I’m mean if so can you express why?” I responded with my head still down, “No.” My mother raised my head and said, “Regina, I just want you to understand that if I say no to something it is not because I am trying to hurt you, it is because I am trying to keep you safe. Just know that I have your best interest at heart.” I hugged my mother and told her that I was sorry and that I loved her. Growing up my parents reacted in many different ways to my emotions. They responded to my emotions verbally and nonverbally.

We finally arrived at the castle and it felt great to be back. I saw a lost first year scrambling to find the rest of the group as a prefect pointed him in the right direction. Memories of being a first year came rushing back, filled with excitement and nerves hoping to be sorted in to Gryffindor. As I entered the Great Hall I was suddenly filled with a feeling of joy, which was amazingly intoxicating, "I'm home" I thought to myself, seeing the familiar

There once was beautiful little mining town with a stream running right through the middle. When it was summer the children would play in it til’ they were called back for supper by their mothers. On those cloudless, cheerful summer mornings you could go out and smell the misty breeze coming off the water. It brushed past the trees and made them sway slightly as the trees rustled. The town was full of tiny little houses with quaint wooden porches and small picket fences to match. It’s the kind of town where everyone knows everyone else, and when you walk around you have to stop and say hello to at least ten people.

We already arrive to our apartment complex and we walk towards our door and inside i'm greeted with my moms friend that I usually don't see often. Surprised I greet her and my excited younger sister glad to have us back home.

Dad, tell me! I 've just broken up a fight. Ma can 't even look me in the eye. What happened?
 - This has nothing to do with you. - It does, Dad!
