    Ventral pallidum (VP) neurons exhibit changes in firing rate (FR) immediately prior to and/or following cocaine-reinforced responses. We first aimed to determine whether the changes in FR surrounding cocaine-seeking responses were coincident with behaviors such as approaching the manipulandum, responding on the manipulandum, and retreating away from the manipulandum. Second, we aimed to determine whether changes in FR during cocaine-seeking behaviors differed between VP subregions. Prior to recordings, animals exhibited both task and skill learning, replicating previous results using this operant. 171 single-units in the ventromedial VP (VPvm) and 48 in the dorsolateral VP (VPdl) were recorded in welltrained animals during cocaine self-administration. Baseline FR and waveform characteristics did not differ between subregions. VPdl neurons exhibited a greater absolute change in FR over VPvm neurons during approaches as well as approaches divided into cued and uncued conditions. VPdl neurons exhibited a greater absolute change in FR over the VPvm during responses as well as responses divided into those cued/reinforced and uncued/unreinforced conditions. VPdl neurons were more likely to exhibit a similar change in FR during approach and response than VPvm neurons. VPvm neurons were heterogeneous, changing FRs during approach or response alone, or both. No differences were found between subregions during retreat behavior. VPdl neurons exhibited a greater absolute change in FR over the VPvm for retreats in which the pump was activated prior to or during a retreat, but not for retreats when the pump was not activated. Given that VPdl neurons exhibited a greater change in FR than VPvm neurons during approach and response, VPdl may be involved in the expression of drug-seeking behaviors through projections to "motoric" regions such as subthalamic nucleus and substantia nigra. Furthermore, because VPdl neurons were more likely to continue their change of FR from approach through response while VPvm were more selective (e.g., approach alone, response alone), it is suggested that cocaine-seeking behaviors are differentially represented within VP subregions. The VPvm projects primarily to the mediodorsal thalamus and ventral tegmental area. Heterogeneous firing patterns within the VPvm may be involved in maintaining a representation of behavioral characteristics or sequences of self-administration behaviors.Ph.

    The annual publication of the students of Hamilton Junior High, Lethbridge, Alberta.(1960-61)pdfForeword We oro proud fo present the Hamilton Junior High School Year Book for 1961. This publication has soveral purposos. First and foromost it is to servo as a pormanont record of the past year's school activities. By tho uso of words and pictures we hove tried to give you the host possible summation of the activities which arc carried on in this institution. The academic and non-academic, the curricular and non-curricular — all aspects of our school life aro on display hero. This year we dedicato our book to threo mon in particular — Mr. George Watson, Mr. Hamilton — after whom our school is namod) and Dr. G. C. Paterson. Thoso mon have given unselfishly to tho cause of training the young people of Lothbridge. The ontire community and particularly our school, owos thorn a debt of gratitude. They are inox- tricably bound up in tho history of our city. Wo gratefully acknowledge tho assistance that has been so un- solfishly given in the production of this book. Without the advice and wise counsel of Mr. G. C. Miller, Mr. George Watson and the other teach­ers, such a book would bo impossible. The students too have helped with tho work, and particularly did we appreciate the assistance of Frod Burton, Doidra Poulsen, Elaine Leong and David Hamer. Wo hopo that as you leaf through thoso pages, fond memorios of a profitable year woil spent will be revived and porpotuated.Ad Astra Per Aspera Imagine standing on a hill on a dark night and viewing a big city in the volley below. Here we see a multitude of lights, large and small, and each is endeavoring to pierce the infinite gloom. Taken individually, there is no great effect but all combined, there is a noticeable impression. So too, in our lives it is important that each and every one of us strive to to help "illuminate" the world of progression. While the struggle tends to be infinite, still, we must constantly endeavor to combat ignorance and work hard to improve the lot of the human race so thot better understanding will prevail. To each of us falls a portion of the task, but to see its completion is an­other problem. It is not for us to question or to find fault, but to be of such good character as to give our very best. Progress is essential and without such, the future would be hopeless. To achieve our portion, it is well that we equip ourselves os bosf as we can. A most important requisite is a well-trained mind. To this end we ore fortunate in having fine schools and good teachers to help us become an important "light" in the path of progress, but the key to the whole situation is the individual. He must be desirous of learning and aspire to be successful. He must play his port in society and then our social structure will tend to glow brighter in the infinite gloom of ignorance, distrust and despair. Good luck to all. Q Valedictory eWb Mr. Miller, Mr. Watson, Honored Guests, and Fellow Sludents. This year I have the pleasure of giving the Valedictory for the graduating class of Hamilton Junior High. This being our final year, we look bock to three years (and in o few cases more) of hard work os well os many moments of fun and recreation. Hamilton Junior High School has been a great stepping stone for us in the transition period from elementary to high school. During these three years we hove boon taught not only the academic subjects but also the impor­tance of assuming greater responsibility, not only to ourselves but also to others. The greatest compliment you can pay to our school is to be successful and happy. Therefore, lot us continue to set our goals high and never be deterred from reaching them. We must accept responsibility, and the degree to which we do will determine the type of men and women we shall be. Everyone of us hore, I'm sure, expects to enter some business or profession in the future and this goal cannot be reached without determination and good old-fashioned work on the part of each individual. We ore now of the age where we must develop ability to assume responsibility and this can best be done by applying ourselves to conscientious study. This year we hove been most fortunate in possessing a specialized teaching staff in our school. Our teach­ers hove given their utmost to enable us to further our education, and coupled with that we have had excellent school facilities. With such a combination, if we apply ourselves, success must bo inevitable. It is with much regret that we ore losing our vice-principal, Mr. Watson, who has so carefully token care of our finances and made sure no money was spent unwisely. Again, permit me to thank all our teachers on behalf of the students. What you have done for us will always be remembered by each and everyone in years to come.

We had included in these programmes the Cameron Report, discussion of the curriculum by the teachers, what their subjects teach the children and what is expected of the children. Wo also showed a film and hod a discussion on if afterwords. Mr. Miller had as guests of the Homo and Schoo! the parents of prospective grade seven students from other schools, in order to explain to them the organization and curriculum of Hamilton Junior High School. At Christmas the students and teachers presented an evening of entertainment. The Drama Club gave several short plays and the school hand gave a very enjoyable recital, all of which was very well received. Mrs. Vera Shirley attended the Banff Conference of the Home and School as our delegate and brought back to us a full and comprehensive report on the conference. As in the past, we would like to express our thanks to the teachers and students of Hamilton Junior High School for their willing assistance with our programmes and in the concerts that were presented at the school. We who fake part in Home and School activities feel that those interested in their children's education, should attend Home and School meetings and take part in its programmes. Mr. C. Miller and Mr. G. Watson, the Principal and Vice-Principal of Hamilton Junior High, ore very helpful in making our programmes as interesting as possible. Mr. G. Watson is retiring this year and we on the Home and School Executive will miss him and the help he has always given us. Wc wish him every success for the future.

Secretory School Board The school year 1960-61 hos seen a further increase in enrolment. At the end of Decomber 1960, there were 1978 pupils in Grades 1 to 3, 1752 in Grades 4 to 6. 1596 in Junior High and 1067 in Senior High. As the heavy enrolments in the primary grades move up there will be o marked increose in the Junior and senior high registrations. The current employment situation points up the fact that more and more training is necessary. In this age of automotion ond technology, when training and skill ore so necessary, those without them cannot hope for anything but the increasingly few unskilled jobs that remain. As the demand for the unskilled decreases, the need for trained workers and technicians with at least high school graduation is increasing rapidly. The National Employment Service has found thot, despite a high rote of unemployment among unskilled teen agers, skilled jobs ore going unfilled. Employees of the future must be adaptable since tech­nological developments moy offect the nature of the jobs they ore doing and they must be prepored to do something else. This implies good, sound training to ot leost the level of high school graduation. The employee must be able to think. Tho greatest need today is for young people who can be trained to assume executive positions. While the drop-out rote of students in the Lethbridge city schools is one of the lowest in the country, there are still far too many students leaving our schools inadequately prepared to meet lifo's problems. After junior high, our two high schools offer a full program in the academic, commercial, industrial arts and goneral fields. After high school the Lethbridge Junior College offers the first year of university training in most faculties for the matriculation student. At present considerable investigotionol work is being done with a view to establish­ing a vocational school os port of the Junior College to serve the needs of the non-motriculation student. To aid those adults who sec the need for increased troining, a comprehensive evening class progrom is offered by the Junior College. In terms of cold cash it pays to stay in school. Recently released statistics indicate that each year in senior high school adds about S230 per year in starting wages, while senior matriculation odds $466 more per year. At the age of thirty, it is estimated thot the high school graduotc mokes 30°* more than the non­graduate.

If was in that building that I last received the strap for telling what I considered to be the truth, although admittedly, in a somewhat round-about way. During my sojourn there I was told much that was never learned, I learned much that I never remembered, and yet as I look back, I feel that it is no doubt one of the outstanding periods of my life. I recall one year that Viscount Bennett, then Prime Minister of Canada, spoke to the student body and at that time he said that the Youth of Today hod the opportunity, training, education, background and know-how, and I suggest Mr. Chairman, the graduates of today are no different. However. I do believe that everyone will agree that we all suffer under the feeling of being pressed for time. We are eternally in o hurry, which after all is simply a shortage of time. Naturally enough there is created a universal impatience which again is merely a shortage of disposition. In all this hustle and bustle is it any wonder that we all search for what we call "short cuts/* "Short cuts" arc to be found everywhere in life today, whether we recognize them os such or not. For in­stance, a leisurely breakfast is almost impossible, with instant coffee, quick oatmeal and minute rice. The house­wife is provided with her own short cuts; she now has polish that requires no rubbing, no buffing and has the use of detergents which make clothes cleaner than clean, whiter than white. "Short cuts" are presented to us so frequently that we ore inclined to try them in everything in life. Well students, I assure you that there are some things that just cannot be hurried, that demand the long way around, if you like, and to which there are positively no short cuts. There is no short cut or quick way to make an oak free grow from an acorn. No hands of man can turn back the fleeting minutes nor hasten the circuit of the sun in the sky. It still requires rain, and sun, and time to grow a crop, and all the impatient mutterings of mankind changes nothing of the works of nature. If has been said that there is no royal road to learning and I suggest that it is just os true that there is no short cut to education. The highway leading to this very graduation tonight is surfaced with the cobblestones of time and effort. I feel rather sorry for young people today, simply because they seem to be in such a hurry to grow up. or at least to become adults. Some try short cuts to manhood or womanhood, and seem to bo impatient with the time and effort required, simply in being young people, and they expect to build character overnight. Some feel that by the use of self-assertion, smartness and disregard for advice, the day will soon dawn when they can say "To­day I am a man." Graduates, I say to you, that it takes as much guidance, growth and direction now, for a girl or boy to reach maturity and possess character as it ever did. Don't be afraid of being a teen-ager for just as long os you can, because you will be an adult soon enough and long enough. Don't form the habit of looking for short cuts os you go through life, because could young people realize how soon they become more walking bundles of habit, they would give greater heed to their conduct while they ore in this plastic state. We arc choosing the paths of our own fate, and whether they be good or evil, such paths are never retrod. Slow down, don't always use the short cut, use the longer way, take time to give the person you would like to be, a look at the person that you really are. It is just os far from the truth for a 14 years old to think he or she knows all the answers, as it is to fear that he or she doesn't know any of thorn. Graduates, on this, the eve of your entrance into high school, I urge you to examine closely all the roads that you may be tempted to take, whether your destination be college, vocational success or simply womanhood or man­hood. Moke sure the path you choose leads you where you want to go. Remember always, that helpful as they can be at times, short cuts ore seldom hard surfaced and smooth, are often rocky and winding, and frequently prove to be longer and more hazardous than the beaten or perhaps more tedious way. Yours is the choice, the well worn path or the promising unknown short cut. May God in his goodness assist you in choosing wisely. MR.

    A modelling approach to assist with managing water quality in a catchment subject to rapid urbanisation: Lake Rotokauri, Hamilton, New Zealand

    No full text
    The objective of this study was to apply a coupled hydrodynamic-ecological model to a peat-stained and shallow (~4 m maximum depth) eutrophic lake whose catchment is likely to be subject to urban expansion associated with the development of Hamilton city, Waikato, New Zealand. The in-lake modelling was designed to increase understanding of the lake ecosystem and potentially to influence planning and management decisions associated with the prospective urban development project being undertaken by the Hamilton City Council (HCC). The overarching goal of the development is to accommodate urban expansion whilst retaining and enhancing the existing natural resources of Lake Rotokauri and Waiwhakareke Lake, and to restore the ecological value of the Rotokauri catchment. The main objective of this study was to understand the relationship between lake water quality and the effects of change of land-use from pastoral to urban within the Rotokauri catchment. This study incorporated results from a twelve-month programme of field work undertaken independently to the present study, into empirical calculations and computer modelling related to the catchment water budget and nutrient load, as well as the lake water quality. The fieldwork included the collection of water samples at set depths from Lake Rotokauri for the analysis of total and dissolved nutrients, chlorophyll a and dissolved oxygen concentrations, and water temperature. On each sampling occasion a Secchi depth was measured. The surface flow measurements and nutrient loadings via the inflows were obtained as part of a water budget calculation for the lake as well as from previous studies that used both field measurements and models to derive nutrient concentrations and loads. An empirical water budget for Lake Rotokauri was developed to estimate the groundwater and outflow discharge as there were no gaugings that could be applied to input these variables into the lake model. Meteorological data for Lake Rotokauri was obtained from the National Institute of Water and Atmosphere Limited database, based on measurement at the Ruakura meteorological station. Meteorological data, inflows (including empirically estimated groundwater and measured surface water discharges to the lake) and the calculated outflow were entered as daily inputs to the DYRESM-CAEDYM lake model for the period of 2009. The available data relating to 2009 were looped for 2010 to check the stability of the model and its ability to capture repeated inter-annual dynamics that would be expected with identical annual forcing data input. DYRESM is a one-dimensional hydrodynamic model that predicts the vertical distribution of temperature, density and salinity. CAEDYM is an aquatic ecological model which was coupled with DYRESM as its hydrodynamic driver to simulate transport and mixing, and output temperature and biogeochemical parameters associated with lake water quality. The model satisfactorily simulated both the surface (0 m) and bottom (3 m) water temperature and the seasonal trends including the occasional stratification periods observed through spring to autumn. The model simulations showed greater departures from field data in simulating the dynamics of biogeochemical variables, particularly the seasonal dynamics of phytoplankton. The conceptual seasonal succession in phytoplankton communities depicts dominance of cyanobacteria in summer and diatoms in winter. In the observed data for Lake Rotokauri diatoms were found to be the dominant group throughout the year. The calibrated model was able to show diatoms to be the dominant group over cyanobacterial blooms. The agreement between concentrations of nitrate and dissolved reactive phosphorus in the water column was better than for chlorophyll a, and the observed magnitude and seasonal fluctuations at both depths (0 and 3 m) were captured reasonably well by the model simulations. The total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) concentrations were under and over-estimated, respectively. Dissolved reactive phosphorus (PO4) was overestimated perhaps as a result of insufficient uptake of phosphorus by the two phytoplankton groups. As the present model does not contain a dynamic description of sediment dynamics, the sediment phosphorus release rates were influenced by user-defined maximum phosphorus release rate, temperature and the oxygen concentration in the overlying waters. Concentrations of ammonium were underestimated but it represented a relatively small proportion of TN. Due to wind-induced mixing and sediment resuspension, as well as convective sediment-water heat exchanges, phosphorus may be released from the bottom sediments where it has previously sedimented out. The model simulations may not have captured these internal loads of phosphorus adequately as sediment resuspension, for example, was not explicitly included in the model configuration. To depict the future water quality of Lake Rotokauri when subjected to urbanisation, three scenarios were developed which involved simulations with altered nutrient loads to DYRESM-CAEDYM and comparisons with the calibrated model which represented a ‘base’ or present case of water quality. The scenarios considered the water quality that could evolve during and after urban development, and with a range of mitigation measures, from relatively modest treatment to best management practices to reduce nutrient loads and attenuate water flows to the lake. The predicted nutrient load contributed from future urban run-off was less than the nutrient load from the pastoral run-off in all scenarios. The model indicated that the nutrient loading from a future catchment with little or modest treatment of the urban area (Scenario I) would be only slightly poorer water quality than Scenario II which examined the water quality during the construction phase. Scenario III (treated water) was most effective in reducing nutrient loads to Lake Rotokauri. At 3 m depth dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations showed large fluctuations throughout the year for the both the base and untreated discharge scenarios. Chlorophyll a (chl a) concentrations for the untreated scenario were greater than in the base scenario. The timing of peak chl a concentrations between base and untreated discharges differed by a few days. The TP, TN and nitrate (NO3-N) concentrations of the base scenario were greater than the untreated scenario. Scenario II represented the intermediate stage towards Scenario 3 which was the optimal treatment case for the catchment. The greatest difference in DO at 0 m between the base case and scenario II was in March (i.e., base-intermediate = 2.76 mg L-1). At 3 m depth, Lake Rotokauri was predicted to be anoxic on 4 July 2011 (0.18 mg L-1) for scenario II. Chlorophyll a concentrations for scenario 2 were lower than the base case and PO4-P concentrations were higher. Concentrations of NO3-N and NH4-N at 3 m depth for scenario II were lower than the base case. Scenario III involved simulating water quality from with best management practices implemented. These practices included detention basins (grass-lined), constructed wetlands, biofiltration swales and floodways. At 3 m depth, fluctuations in DO concentration for both the base and scenario III were similar at the beginning of the simulated period, but for the months of May to November DO was lower in Scenario III than the base case. The maximum chl a for scenario 3 peaked at 30.8 μgL-1 compared to 38.9 μg L-1 observed in the base model. The TP and TN concentrations were substantially lower in Scenario III than the base model. Concentrations of PO4-P at 3 m depth were low for most of the year except in March. At 0 m depth the NH4-N concentrations were greater than the base model from mid-June to July. Concentrations of NO3-N for the treated scenario at 0 m depth were approximately 25% less than the base model. Future studies should consider an ongoing comprehensive and consistent monitoring plan that would emphasise any change in the water quality of Lake Rotokauri during and/or after high-density urban developments within the catchment. Future works should involve regular monitoring that would not only limit the uncertainties in the data but also account for any effects that may be attributable to the management plan. Restoration plans should also be considered to explore the effects of biomanipulation and re-establishment of submerged vegetation. The DYRESM-CAEDYM model may also be used to examine the effects of climate change on in-lake processes and external loads to the lake

    Obstacles on the path: An exposition of the experience of car-free living

    No full text
    The contemporary focus by local and central government on the promotion of sustainable transport options has highlighted the need for commuting to move away from the current dependence on private cars to more public and active (walking and cycling) modes of transport. Given the prominence of the motor car in personal transport options however, choosing to live car-free in this car dependent culture appears at first glance to be an irrational choice. This research explores the lived experiences of a group of Hamilton residents who have made such a choice. Using a grounded theory approach, the thesis presents the results of interviews with nine car-free Hamilton residents who shared their personal transport stories, which include their childhood experiences, but focus on their current everyday practices and experiences. Through semi-structured interviews, the costs and benefits of a car-free lifestyle are articulated and analysed. Their motivations for choosing to forgo cars and their solutions for overcoming potential barriers to car-free living are also reported and explored. The collected data generated a range of themes which are presented in three chapters, each covering a specific aspect of the participants’ stories. The first group of themes relate to the public sphere, the second to the private realm and the final group emanates from specific elements of car-free living that the thesis sought to clarify through the participants’ stories. The key finding is that living car-free within Hamilton City is viewed by the participants as a well reasoned and eminently sensible choice, which produces multiple benefits. In addition to their reduced environmental footprints, the participants value the social interaction associated with active and public transport. Their consensus is that they are healthier, wealthier and more involved members of the community. The most problematic areas of living without a car were associated with recreational and social activities, which often do not coincide with public transport schedules or involve distances too great for active transport. The benefits far outweigh any disadvantages however, and ultimately, this thesis concludes that a motor car is not necessary for the everyday activities of urban living in Hamilton and any associated inconveniences are not as insurmountable as generally imagined

Words will never express the feelings we have because words cannot express them. When v/e first entered the dark, noisy halls, wo thought the end of the world had come. And so it was the end of our small, selfish worlds, for in the three years of our stay in Hamilton, new horizons were opened before our eyes. In Grade Eight, we became accustomed to the school system and felt more a part of the student body. Grade Nine has been a year for leadership and example setting. We were the older, more experienced people. The extra-curricular activities developed our skills, our interests, and our cultural appreciation. Our efficient Students' Council has enabled us to become more aware of the process of government in our environment. In our classrooms, v/e gained knowledge through the efforts of our ever-patient teachers, knowledge, not only about facts and figures, but also how to think and to widen our scope of thinking. With the training v/e have received at Hamilton, many of us have been able to make decisions about our future occupations, while others have found where their general interests lie. We must not think, however, that we have learned all we can, for as Georgia Green states in her poem: "The summit above me lay gloomy and dark As I stood on the brow of the hill; As I turned and gazed on its sombre face The sight v/as enough to thrill. Belov/ at my feet lay a valley fair In its slumbering peaceful state, And the cool breeze fanned my troubled face As my heart beat a faster rate. KAREN DUFF The ground at my feet sloped gently down. The path was rolling and slow. But 1 turned my back at the peaceful scene For I knew where my feet must go. They must follow the crags and attain the peak Though the going be v/eary and slow. For the spirit of freedom was calling me on And the answer lay not below." Class History «Ws Our Graduation tonight is not only a time for celebration, but it is a time when v/e remember our three years in Hamilton. During this period, we have matured from elementary school — graduates to young adults, the world leaders of tomorrow. Let us review the incidents which in years to come will pro­vide us with nostalgic memories of Hamilton. Our first day was not without its events. The trip to the wrong room, the experience of trying to bully our v/ay up the v/rong stairs — all these made up a memorable day. No sooner had we become accustomed to the grind than Mr. Watson opened his "extra-help-in-writing" class after four o'clock. In April we stumbled onto the feared Easter exams. Our marks told of our efforts, and soon v/e were intro­duced to the notorious extra-help sheets. Then v/e deduced from Mr. Miller's illegible scrawl that we had been promoted to Grade Eight. Our second year was different. Night after night v/e filed into Room 27 to attend our beloved (?) Math, teacher's detentions. Or else we were scanning the nev/spapers in science class to obtain Cur­rent Events. V/e faced the "swim or sink" aspect of Easters, but we kept our heads above water. Then came our final year at Hamilton and with it our introduction to final exams. But Grade Nine has not been without its comical points. The befuddled look on our faces as Mr. Watson buried us under a ton of algebraic terms brought snickers and chuckles. Now we are leaving Hamilton for greater opportunities beyond. In our minds, our school will fade almost into obscurity, but its memory cannot be completely forgotten. Hamilton will be a passing saga in our life.

    Benn Pitman\u27s Visit to the Shaker Settlement—Whitewater Village, O. : Introduction

    No full text
    What may be the most interesting and detailed outsider’s account of the White Water community also has a history of scholarly elusiveness. It was written by Benn Pitman (1822-1910), a pioneer in the field of phonography and phonetics, who played a leading role in the development of the science of stenography. Pitman visited the White Water Shakers in 1855, two years after he had immigrated to Cincinnati from Wiltshire, England. Following his visit, he wrote and published an article entitled “Visit to the Shaker Settlement — Whitewater Village, O.” in The Phonographic Magazine in 1855

    Cult: A Composite Novel

    No full text
    Cult (redacted) The first component of the thesis is a composite novel called Cult which falls into two parts with seven narratives in each. Part 1 tracks the protagonist, Ellen, from her first involvement with the cult through to her eventually leaving it. Although fiction, the first half of the book answers the kinds of questions the author is asked when people discover that she was once a sannyasin (a follower of the guru Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh). While the experiences of meditation, group therapy and communal living are all faithfully rendered within the stories, the need for strong characters, narrative drive and a lightness of touch takes precedence. Part 2 picks up Ellen’s story some twenty or so years later and explores what becomes of her in middle age. It also looks at other groups in society, such as academia, the law and the internet dating community which each have their own jargon, hierarchies, rituals and rules but are not considered to be cults. The book examines the question raised in the Epigraph, ‘how do we be together when we feel so alone’ with a focus on relationships other than the familial and the romantic. Collisions, Chasms and Connections: a Performative Exploration of the Composite Novel Form The second part of the thesis is both a critical and creative response to three contemporary American books: Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout; A Visit from the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan; and Legend of a Suicide by David Vann. The critical element comprises a close reading of the three books; a chronological reconstruction of their overarching storylines; and a consideration of what their authors have said about writing the books. It concludes that, in the composite novel, the simultaneous presentation of multiple views and storylines operate much like a 3D image to give the impression of depth to the characters and situations rendered. The creative element of the essay is a playful and personal response to the texts
