Introduction Depression has become a daunting problem around the world, with the World Health Organization listing it as the leading cause of disability.1 As well, in 2030 it is anticipated to be second on a list of fifteen major disease burdens.2 In the United States, depression is a large, but often overlooked epidemic. It is estimated that 6.7% of the U.S. population suffer from depression yearly, with a lifetime diagnosis rate of approximately 16%.3,4 Additionally, it is estimated that 4-5% of

As the life expectancy in the United States rises, the number of elderly in the population has also expanded. These increases have led to the oldest-old (people aged 90 and older) to become the fastest growing age group in the country. The oldest-old face many unique challenges because of their age, one of which is disability. Disability in the elderly has major impact upon society 1 and will continue will be a growing burden in years to come. Although there is evidence from many studies that

discouragement, disaffected, and suffocating in a sea of endless links, the Guardian article “Healing trip: How psychedelic drugs could help treat depression” by David Derbyshire, was the breath of sweet truth I’d been so desperately craving; pure objective data with direct in-citation links to universities’ and medical institutions’ research and journal publications. Finally, I knew the article was not delusive, but instead, based upon inalienable scientific knowledge.

deliver more value without having to make price the single most important part of the customer equation. Here’s how. 1. Make an offer. The success of any ad campaign whether online or in print is “the offer”. Price is always the lowest common denominator and does nothing other than erode margin. Think “high perceived value” in crafting your offer. “Buy a case and get a free shirt”, “Buy 9 lamps and get the 10th free” (create a “grow light card”). Bottom line, people respond to offers. If it’s

Television and the purpose of it has changed in a negative way throughout the years. At the beginning, we took advantage of being able to be a part of the presidential elections and acquire the facts about what truly mattered during the debates. Lately we’ve started to look at what the screen is showing us rather than concentrating on what it was actually telling us. We as people have begun to want to appoint our official leaders based on who looks better and television has helped feed this desire

Democracy is often portrayed as the best political system because it allows everybody to vote, and to have an opinion, regardless of social status. This is often misused when people assume what the majority wants is what everybody needs the most. Or that since everyone is equal in the eyes of the law, then all opinions are equal and there is no way one claim can be worse or better than any other claim. In reality, the rule of majority is simply promoting the most favorable option. The results of

The first part in the process of doing research is the question. You can 't do any research until you have an interesting and feasible question. You will base your research off this question and go through the whole process with it in mind. However, there are previous components to have ready before a question can be created for the research. These components would be: finding a topic to research, creating a theory about the topic, and collecting literature on the topic for analysis. The question

Celebrities and consumers alike have evolved thoroughly throughout the years, which has led to them overlapping quite exponentially. Personalities are interlinked majorly with consumers since without the other; the other would cease to exist. This is evident as celebrities livelihood relies completely upon the consumer culture of citizens, which is what makes them famous, and gives them that celebrity role. Whilst this is apparent, the links involve As stated by Graeme Turner in Understanding Celebrity

In Peter Singer’s All Animals are Equal, he presents an argument for equal consideration for members of nonhuman species, otherwise known as animals. In this paper, I will argue that Singer’s argument does not prove that animals are deserving of equal consideration because it contains a premise that is not obviously true. The premise I believe to be inadequately supported is the premise that there is no property that all human sentient creatures have that not all sentient creatures have that would

belong and what we believe. Who see the humanity in those who take the same positions we do, and in those who are bitterly opposed. Who believe to simplify the cause is to undermine the cause. And that to reduce the issues to the lowest common denominator is to reduce the personhood of those who don’t agree with us. We are the new revolutionaries who know that nothing is as simple as it appears, that things are more murky than maybe either side feels comfortable admitting, and that the act of not
