60 Minutes

During one year, the heart initiates approximately 32 million heartbeats to pump blood around the body, beating a total of 60-80 times per minute at a normal pace. It is a highly efficient organ and constantly works to keep our blood circulation going and ourselves alive. The high efficiency of the heart pumping system originates in a conductive system, which is linked to the Sinoatrial (S-A) and Atrioventricular (A-V) node. The Sinoatrial node, also known as the natural cardiac pacemaker, is…

Did you know 60% of tax and legal papers get returned because of cursive that they can’t read. In my opinion, I truly believe that cursive should still be taught in schools today. First, cursive is killing history. Also, cursive makes us able to communicate with all generations. Lastly, cursive helps the brain work constantly. First, cursive is killing history. If we can’t read cursive we won’t be able to read historical documents. For example, Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and…

It’s early 1980s and Dr. Robert Ballard has a dream. That dream was to discover the Titanic. The depth of the Atlantic Seabed would force Dr. Ballard to go deeper than any deep-sea diver had gone before. In 1973, the ALVIN (a manned deep- ocean research submersible owned by the United States Navy) had to go through structure changes to withstand the depth necessary to reach the Titanic which was around 13,000 feet. The researchers did not have much to go on in terms of a location for the ship…

Lady Gaga shocked the nation when she presented herself at the MTV Music Awards wearing a dress made out of flank steak. The dress has a popular label “the meat dress.” The meat dress took people by storm many outraged, and interpretations were farfetched from what Gaga intended. I will be exploring a relationship between Gaga’s iconic meat dress photograph and a larger public culture.

Cardio workouts are supposed to help people lose weight, maintain muscle tone, as well as prevent cardiovascular diseases. Unfortunately, most people doing these workouts are not getting the results that they wanted. Hence, they get discouraged and frustrated, and wind up quitting their exercise habit. For those people who do not quit, they become overworked and exhausted because they work out harder; thus, straining their muscles and getting harmful effects to their bodies. The reason why…

time down to the half hour or even quarter half hour, the scale was so small and hard to keep still so it was not very accurate (Watson). That wasn’t a huge problem for the Romans because they did not necessarily need to know the time by the exact minute. Pocket watches were also created as a luxury item; it was not a necessity. The only problem with pocket watches was their generous price and their inability to tell time the entire day. It could only tell time for half of the day at a time, so…

think James is saying that because of the 4th Amendment. The 4th amendment states that people should feel safe,secure,and have a right to privacy. Therefore if that law gets passed then how will we feel safe when we are being watched and heard every minute of the day. In conclusion, I don’t think the government should be allowed to use electronic surveillance. I say they shouldn’t because the only reason why the government should have the need to gain access of someone’s texts, emails, or hear…
