    The seasons are created by the tilt, 23.5 degrees, of the Earth’s axis and the position of the Earth in terms of its revolution around the Sun. A hemisphere will experience summer when it is tilted towards the Sun, while the other hemisphere experiences winter. If a hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun, it is receiving more sunlight and therefore it must be summer. This works the other way around as well; if a hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun, it is receiving less sunlight and therefore it is winter. At the end of the day, the seasons exist because of the Earth’s tilted axis and its revolutions around the Sun.…

    The political party name is “Tired of the Bull.” This name is chosen because this seems to be the feeling of the American voters and the American people mostly myself.

An example of this would be the healthcare debate, everyone needs healthcare, without it health care cost would continue to be out of control and people would not get treated because of the lack of health care insurance.…

    The Learning Center’s semi-annual FLOCS assessment was coming up soon. The Learning Center director had to make sure all of the client paperwork was in order and I had to make sure the fire inspection was completed prior to the FLOCS assessment. Dealing with the country Fire Inspectors was not an easy task. Normally a Fire Inspector would come arrive for the inspection in late May or Early June, but apparently they were very busy this year and were running behind schedule. Several calls were placed to the Fire Inspection office in an effort to set an appointment or at least determine what week or day a Fire Inspector could be expected to complete the inspection.…

    At a superficial level, Laozi and Mozi seem to be at odds with one another on nearly all levels. Mozi’s philosophy is backed up with reasoning and a prevailing idea of rational thought in order to create order. Seemingly contradictory is Laozi’s claim that order is created through a spiritual law produced by an entity he calls “Dao” or the Way. At a glance Laozi’s philosophy seems far too mystical to have similarities with Mozi, but they actually have far more in common when it comes to how they believe a government should be run. The ideal state in both Daoist, and Mohist thought operate in such a way that they are highly similar, not so much as explicit structure, but more so in the underlying roots of legitimacy, the basis of laws, and the role of the state to bring order.…

    Imagine for a moment that you have to climb to the very top of a large, daunting mountain with the goal of eventually seeing the world from a new perspective. It is not that simple though because you are also unable to use any equipment or information to guide you in the task. Conversely, there is another person who, before beginning the exact same climb, already has an extensive knowledge provided to them for the venture, and additionally, they have high-tech equipment to make the journey easier. They have done this before. Obviously, this would be rather unfair.…
