placement‚ I encountered an obese elderly man with type 2 diabetes who was bed bound. His BP was 98/73 so I decided to do a manual blood pressure (BP) to make sure it was not a mechanical error from the automatic machine and recorded 99/75.

Overpaid professional athletes The topic I chose for my essay is overpaid professional athletes. I chose this topic because I think athletes are getting paid way too much money. Athletes get paid way too much for what they contribute to society. They contribute very little compared to other careers that give so much to society but make very little salaries.

Are Athletes Overpaid The average athlete can make more than the President of the United States; how is that fair? Athletes‚ like Tom Brady‚ are overpaid and make more that the average families that work till they are 70 years old. Do athletes really deserve to make that much? The answer is no‚ they do no. First‚ athletes make way over a million dollars in one year. The average income of an American family is about 54‚000 dollars a year. A nurse only makes 70‚000 dollars a year. Compare that to

Do you think that athletes are overpaid? Well I believe that athletes are much overpaid. People‚ such as doctors and teachers‚ are not even close to being paid as much as athletes. For example‚ teachers teach students how to read‚ write‚ and speak. All some athletes do would be throwing a ball into a hoop‚ and they make a fortune. What a waste of money! They have so much; they do not even know what to do with it. Athletes should never be paid millions of dollars. To begin with‚ people who have

The victors were memorialized in statues and also in victory songs‚ and commissioned from famous poets. Today‚ the Olympic Games are

The Pressures of Guilt Everyone sins. It is an inescapable fact. The magnitude of guilt for these sins‚ however‚ depends upon the creed‚ religion‚ or ideals of the sinner. In both The Crucible‚ by Arthur Miller‚ and The Scarlet Letter‚ by Nathaniel Hawthorne‚ readers see the effect of the Puritan faith on guilt. Strong‚ as well as weak‚ characters face guilt in each book. Abigail and Dimmesdale take a coward’s way out‚ while Hester and Proctor wrestle with their guilt. By upholding the strictures
