This paper uses three poems by Emily Dickinson---"Tell all the truth but tell it slant," "If you were coming in the fall," and "She rose to his requirement"---in order to illuminate Ezra Pound's poem "The River-Merchant's Wife: A Letter". The first of Dickinson's poems is compared to Pound's poem in terms of techniques of emotional reticence. The second Dickinson poem is compared to Pound's poem in terms of how it uses imagery. The final Dickinson poem is discussed as the most accurate parallel to what Pound has achieved in "The River-Merchant's Wife," because the two share a similar approach to dramatizing female psychology.

Correctional institutions have tried to implement inmate postcard-only mail policies to reduce staffing needs and contraband trafficking. The U.S. Supreme Court and lower federal courts have tended to give correctional authorities the benefit of the doubt when prisons restrict the Constitutional rights of inmates, in order to ensure prison security and the safety of inmates and prison staff. However, the Court has established a reasonableness test under Turner v. Safley (1987) when it comes to prison policies infringing upon inmate speech. This essay examines the Constitutionality of prison postcard-only mail policies and offers recommendations based on established jurisprudence.

This paper illuminates two different interpretive approaches in 20th century theater by comparing two different ways of staging Shakespeare's Hamlet. It contrasts the more politicized Continental European view of Hamlet as a dissident with the English-speaking theater's view of Hamlet as man with a tortured individual psyche who tragically could not make up his mind.

The increase in racial and ethnic diversity in the United States and specifically in Anchorage Alaska and the compelling evidence of ethnic health disparities (Smedley, Stith and Nelson, 2002) makes the incorporation of ethnogeriatric perspective into the practice of geriatric health care of critical importance. Reported are the "federally designated racial and ethnic groups…[of]…"American Indian/Alaska Native, African American/Black, Asian American, Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander, Hispanic/Latino American, and white/Caucasian American…" (McBride, 2012, p.1) Also reported are "vast differences or heterogeneity…found between and within these categories related to health beliefs and practices, access and utilization of health care, health risks, family dynamics and caregiving, decision making process and priorities, and response to interventions and changes in health care policies." (McBride & Lewis, 2004; McBride, Morioka-Douglas, & Yeo, 1996; McCabe & Cuellar, 1994; Richardson, 1996; Villa, Cuellar, & Yeo, 1993; Yeo, McCabe, Talamantes, Henderson, Scott, & Yee, 1996 in: McBride, 2012, p.1) Additionally reported is that the heterogeneity within each of the categories of ethnic/racial minority older persons such as sociodemographic characteristics, modes of social interaction and communication, health and healing belief systems, learning behaviors, and certain values and traditions…" all of which "contribute degrees of complexity to the delivery of culturally sensitive health care." (Yeo, McCabe, Henderson, Talamantes, Scott & Yee, 1996 in: McBride, 2012, p.1) The study reported in this work is a qualitative phenomenological research study that examines the experiences of personal care assistants in Anchorage, Alaska.
