Still he stands
Watching the vortex widen and involve
in swirling dissolution the whole earth
and circle through the skies till swaying time
collapses, crumpling into dark the skies

INTRODUCTION
Archibald MacLeish was always a loner. Although he married he was always wondering about man’s relationship to the world. He wondered why people could not see that they were wasting the little time we have on this earth. He tried to show in his poems “the reality of the emotions that words cannot describe.';(Falk 27) Often he would include in his poems laws of nature and physics which gave him a unique style.
(Falk 24)
BIOGRAPHY
Archibald MacLeish was born in Glencoe, Illinois to an average middle class family. His father, Andrew MacLeish, was a businessman. His mother, Martha Hillard MacLeish, was a homemaker. His parents soon realized they had a very gifted son so they sent him to the Hotchkiss School. This school catered to his many different interests. Of all the things MacLeish excelled at he was the best at writing. Archibald graduated at the top of his class and was accepted to Yale University. While at Yale MacLeish studied law, but continued his writing and in his off time the university published a book of his works.
After Yale, MacLeish decided to focus on his poetry and his new wife and children. During this time off he wrote his first collaboration called Tower of Ivory Then in 1917 he went to France to serve in the war as a private. He rose from private to captain in just one year of service. Upon his return to the United States MacLeish began teaching at Harvard. While there he taught International Law and Constitutional Law which improved his grammar skills greatly. MacLeish was accepted by the Massachusetts bar in 1920. He began practicing law in Boston and continued to do that for three years. MacLeish then returned to France to focus on his writing. While in France MacLeish spent much time outdoors so he wrote about what he saw and what he thought of it. During his time in France, MacLeish wrote the poems “The Happy Marriage';,';The Pot of Earth';, and the controversial poem about religion called “Nobodaddy.';(Moritz 143)
MacLeish returned to America in 1928 and that same year he wrote The Hamlet of A. MacLeish. This book was a tribute to Shakespeare , but his work reflected that of his fellow poet ,T.
Chester Alan Arthur was born on October 5, 1830 in Fairfield, Vermont. The son of Malvina Arthur and the Reverend William Arthur, a passionate abolitionist, young Chester and his family migrated from one Baptist parish to another in Vermont and New York. The fifth of eight children, Chester had six sisters and one older brother. Before beginning school in Union Village (now Greenwich), New York, he studied the fundamentals of reading and writing at home.
Hemodialysis is the process of blood that is transported outside the body to a dialysis machine where it is cleaned of waste products and returned to the circulatory system. It is a lifetime requirement. As a result, of the repeated and life-long needle puncture of the involved blood vessels, thick scar tissue eventually develops which makes the procedure difficult and painful. To avoid this complication, a surgical procedure known as an arteriovenous fistula is performed. It produces a large vein that can be entered safely and easily with large needles for the three times a week procedure. New techniques are intended to improve the efficiency of dialysis and thereby increases life expectancy, as 20% of people with end-stage renal disease die annually. Peritoneal Dialysis. Peritoneum is the lining of the abdominal cavity. The tissue has the properties of a semi-permeable membrane, allowing the process of diffusion to take place in abdominal cavity. An incision is made through the anterior abdominal muscle wall; through this opening, a tube (catheter) is inserted into the abdominal space. Sterile dialysate (a solution to clear waste products) is introduced and allowed to remain in the cavity four to six hours or overnight. During this time, through the process of diffusion, impurities pass through the peritoneum into the dialysate. The dialysate and its collected impurities are then eliminated from the body. Kidney transplantation when possible, is the best alternative for end stage renal disease. Often, the body rejects the kidney and when this occurs the recipient must undergo a medication regimen to suppress the immune system. Relatives are recommended to donate their liver so that the body has a smaller chance to reject the kidney. I comparison with dialysis kidney transplantation has advantages that positively affect the person’s medical and vocational rehabilitation potential. The person with the

Hughes mother went through protracted separations and reconciliations in her second marriage (she and her son from this marriage would live with him off and on in later years. He was raised by alternately by her, by his maternal grandmother, and, after his grandmother’s death, by family friends. By the time he was fourteen, he had lived in Joplin; Buffalo; Cleveland; Lawrence, Kansas; Mexico City; Topeka, Kansas; Colorado Springs; Kansas City; and Lincoln, Illinois. In 1915, he was class poet of his grammar-school graduating class in Lincoln. From 1916 to 1920, he attended Central High School in Cleveland, where he was a star athlete, wrote poetry and short stories (and published many of them in the Central High Monthly), and on his own read such modern poets as Paul Laurence Dunbar, Edgar Lee Masters, Vachel Lindsay, and Carl Sandburg. His classmates were for the most part the children of European immigrants, who treated him largely without discrimination and introduced him to leftist political ideas.

...and dialysis can help you feel better quickly. (DaVita, n.d ) There are three common types of dialysis: hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis and lastly would be a kidney transplant. Hemodialysis is the most common method used to treat advanced and permanent kidney failure. This method replaces the work of your failed kidneys. Your blood is allowed to flow, a few ounces at a time through a specific filter and removes wastes and extra fluids. The clean blood is returned to the body. Moreover, removing the toxic wastes, salts and fluid help control your blood pressure and keep a balance of chemicals like potassium and sodium in the body. When a patient is on Hemodialysis a strict schedule must be followed. The patient will go 3 times a week for 3 to 5 hours, sometimes longer. Secondly, peritoneal dialysis Kidney transplants are another treatment that can be used to
Kidney dialysis comes at a price. With chronic kidney disease (CKD), there can be problems with iron depletion. Dialysis slowly depletes a patient of iron. On average, about 5-7 mg of iron is lost in each session. Until recently, the main way doctors tried to compensate for this loss was by adding 100 mg of iron into the bloodstream. This treatment comes with risks of oxidative stress and can cause liver damage. A new drug has recently been in the news and seems to help greatly with this problem. The drug is called Triferic. Triferic mimics the way iron is absorbed into the body naturally. The absorption gradually goes to the body’s bone marrow and helps to maintain levels of hemoglobin. Triferic is still in the trial stages with 3 successful trials done so far. It very well may become an integrated treatment for those with CKD. (Glatter, 2013)
writing was weak during grade school, but his great pieces came his senior year at Harvard. He became editor for the Harvard Lampoon, which is the school’s newspaper.
A real estate agent is a person who sells and rents out buildings and land for clients. This career is very important if you are buying a house, but you don’t really know what you’re doing. Real estate agents can help to guide you through the process, and answer any questions you have. Real Estate has always been around, it just wasn’t referred to as an actual occupation. Real estate companies didn’t start until around the 1950’s. People could now officially buy and sell houses, and make money from it at the same time.
...patient without help. Most common problems with peritoneal dialysis is peritonitis, a serious abdominal infection. This happens if the opening where the catheter enters the body and becomes infected or if contamination occurs as the catheter is attached or not attached from the bags. A peritoneal dialysis diet is a little different from an in center hemodialysis diet. People need to still limit salt and liquids, but may be able to have more of each compared with hemodialysis, must eat additional protein, may need to eat high-potassium foods, and may need to cut back on the number of calories they eat because there are calories in the dialysis fluids that may cause them to gain weight. Hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis are treatments that help change the work the kidneys did. These treatments help them feel good and live longer, but they don't cure kidney failure.
In order for a person to really understand how Mr. Hughes’s life shaped his poetry, one must know all about his background. In this paper, I will write a short biography of Hughes’s life and tell how this helped accent his literary genius.
William Shakespeare composed the play Hamlet, around 1600-1601. This play, named after his only son, in my opinion is one of Shakespeare’s best works. The play shows the literal as well as the realistic sides of people during this culture as well as those generations to come. During the play, Hamlet’s character went through several different transitions. In the beginning he was shown as a child, by his actions and curiosity, but towards the end of play his manhood begins surface and he begins to be aggressive at getting what he wants.
Hemodialysis is a procedure where a machine acts like the kidneys, filtering the blood from the wastes and toxins that build up in the bloodstream. Hemodialysis can be used to treat cats with chronic kidney disease or to remove a poison with a cat from acute kidney disease. Unfortunately, dialysis is only available at certain veterinary hospitals in the United States and can be extremely

Education is a form of personal freedom. By pursuing a college education, you are setting yourself up to be a successful and independent individual who not only has a degree, but is knowledgeable of the things in this world that matter. Many may argue that you can be more successful and earn a higher salary than an individual with a degree. This statement is very true, however, those individuals who become rich overnight and have these “special gifts” are very far and in between. This is due to the fact that it is very rare to become an overnight success story and although these people may not have went through college, they still worked extremely hard to be where they are today. This goes to show that one of the best things about earning a degree is the fact that it is one of the only things in this world that no one can take from you because you “earned” it. For example: as a recording artist,
