From a small age — usually around the age of six or seven — children are asked to think of what they’d like to be when they grow up. Some already have some kind of notion, but with time their decision will change. That was my case — I wasn’t sure what I wanted to be. “What would you want to be when you grow up?”, was a question several people would ask me. It’s was a question I didn’t know the exact answer to. Little did I know, deep down inside, I knew what I wanted to be all along. In elementary

Women were excluded from the professions, except for writing and teaching. The medical profession is an example of changed attitudes in the 19th and 20th centuries about what was regarded as suitable work for women. Prior to the 1800s there were almost no medical schools, and virtually any enterprising person

Paul Bogard discusses the absolute need to preserve and sustain natural darkness. In his work "Let There Be Light."

well-established magazine and is arranged and researched in a way that adds to that credibility. Mr. Friedersdorf was very direct in his argument that the American government is killing more citizens than it is helping with The War on Drugs policy by banning medical marijuana which, in turn, led to opiate overuse and abuse. He makes poignant claims that medical marijuana is a healthier alternative to opiate pain killers and is just as effective, yet it remains illegal while opiate

This course of action may be taken in situations for speeding up the death, typically for medical patients who are severely ill.
