Proper healthcare is undeniably one of the most important aspects to people living today. Healthcare in this country is a topic of controversy and criticism and has been an on-going battle for many years. As flawed as the system may be at the moment, it plays an enormous role to people of all ages and backgrounds.

To provide effective and responsible medical care is a huge responsibility for those that carry out the medical services. I view medical providers as compassionate and goodwilling people who oftentimes go beyond the call of duty to relieve the pain of another person. The (more…)

Henry was born in 1491 and grew up in a strong catholic family, he went to mass every day. Henry only started to question the catholic faith when he wanted to divorce his first wife, Catherine Of Aragon.

In the sixteenth centery everybody was happy with the catholic church and faith, but this all changed in the 1500’s. People began to critiscise the cathoic church. They protested against the following. The church was too weathly and used all it’s money in the wrong ways. The fact that the parish priests were never at their parishes. They had other jobs ad (more…)

The “Banking” concept of education, an analysis of Education in our society by Paulo Freire, is very simple. Teachers teach to their pupils as though they were receptacles which were to be filled. Things which are to be taught are taught as solid, two-dimensional things. For example, a student of economics might learn what the term ‘Laissez-Faire’ means. However, they would not be taught why or how ‘Laissez-Faire’ affects the economy, or any information regarding how ‘Laissez-Faire’ could be used. Students are rewarded for being able to spit back facts and information to teachers without actually fully understanding what it (more…)

This assignment has made me realize that my formal education began in elementary school. Elementary school was an important foundation for my future intellectual experiences. In elementary school I learned the basics such as reading, writing, and simple math. These skills are all crucial to my success in life. Not only was a basic education important, but also the teachers and faculty that I met, who influenced my social development.

George Orwell expressed a feeling of alienation in “Such, Such Were the Joys”. He cast himself as a misfit unable to understand his teachers or his fellow peers. My upbringing was so different from his. I never felt like a misfit and I had a wonderful relationship with my teachers and fellow peers. His attitude and the way he was treated made him uncertain of where he fits in society. I was always made aware of my purpose in this world. I was raised in the Catholic Church so I was taught to know that God had a place for everyone in this world.

Orwell felt alone, I never did. Even though his home was full of love and nurturing, being at Crossgates destroyed all that. All my memories of childhood were filled with love, kindness, happiness, and nurturing. Orwell was made to believe that he was not handsome enough, not strong enough but yet he was good enough to be a “scholarship boy” who can attract prospective students. How can anyone subject a child to this kind of mistreatment? To make a child believe that he or she is not good enough to be part (more…)

The film Skylark is a wonderful continuation of the previous movie Sarah, Plain and Tall. The events take place in 1912 and are an accurate portrayal of history.

The story revolves around the Witting family who face new challenges of a drought and the possibility of fire looming over their farm. With these threats, the bonds of love and commitment between the family members (Sarah, Jacob, Anna, and Caleb) are tested. Cast members include Glenn Close as Sarah, Christopher Walker as Jacob, Lexi Randall as Anna, and Christopher Bell as Caleb. While Joseph Sargent and Glenn Jordan directed the film, David Shire served as the composer, Michael Brown as the editor, Mike Fash as director of photography, and Joseph Sargent again as the movie’s producer. Skylark is the second movie of a trilogy with Sarah, Plain and Tall and Winter’s End preceding and following it.

The story is based upon a novel written by Patricia MacLachlan who originally did not believe in sequels but then realized the characters of Sarah, Plain and Tall should be explored and expanded. With the second movie, many people, both in front and behind the camera, returned from the first. The cast stayed in a town called Emporia which was twenty five miles from the farm in which they filmed the movie. This farm which served as the location of production, was a real 240 acre Kansas farm owned by John and Ada Bryan. During the two-year time gap between the first and second movie, the owners of the farm decided to modernize their kitchen by replacing their wood stove and ice box refrigerator with state of the art appliances, new cupboards, sinks, and countertops. This presented a problem since many of the scenes in Skylark take place within the kitchen. In order to solve this dilemma, a construction crew worked round clock for four days replacing the 1992 kitchen with an 80-year-earlier Kansas farm house kitchen. After the film was completed, (more…)
