Saturday Saturday. The first day of the weekend, the first day of freedom at the end of every week at school. Saturday was always a day of great anticipation for me during my younger years.

Since my grandpa came to visit my family every year, I never had a chance to go to my

Feminist Ideals in Woman on the Edge of Time Marge Piercy's Woman on the Edge of Time is a dichotomy of two worlds: one utopic and one distopic. Although the world of the future is utopic in many senses, e.g. Marxist, environmentalist, etc., Piercy seems to especially focus on feminist issues. The two main characters, Connie and Luciente, are both women, and are both products of their respective societies. It is through these two characters that Piercy reveals not only extrinsic societal features
On the Edge, with Sight I have kept for twenty years a tattered and stained copy of a Matt Groenig cartoon entitled “How to be an Artist in Torment.”The cartoon asks if you were sickly, peculiar, alienated, or picked on as a child and, if so, did that make you feel superior?

My target behavior was slouching, which is defined as not having my back straight, drooped shoulders and having my head head down. To record my behavior, I had a sheet made on my phone to record how many times I slouched that day, by the hour. So, at the end of every hour I checked whether or not I was slouching or not and recorded that onto my phone. I then took this data and transferred it daily to my graph on excel, to maintain a consistent record. The baseline data went for 59 days and the treatment
