What do people think about when they hear the word politics? To further that, what do they think of when they hear the term polarization? Congress is in a constant battle between parties, and this, in turn, keeps us in an almost constant state of gridlock. Susan Page, Jim Douglas, Brian Resnick, and Norman Ornstein have all written articles explaining political polarization, civil discourse, or the solutions to these problems. In Susan Page’s article “Divided We Now Stand,” she mainly focuses on…

about earlier painters such as those in the Oklahoma School. The most artwork from earlier painters are traditional portraits and pictures of recording the ceremony. Fritz Scholder combined Indian culture with American culture to show the Indian with a beer can, the Indian with a American flag, and a portrait of himself with a cat. He also drew abstract in which expressed Indian’s daily life, and he expressed more emotions though his works. I have chosen Hell and Heaven because the structure of…

degree in chemical engineering. He was a researcher at the National Autonomous University of Mexico in the Institute of Chemistry. He also was the faculty of chemistry there. Not only that, but he was the director and professor at the Universidad Iberoamericana in the School of Chemistry. Luis Miramontes was a deputy Director of Research at the Mexican Institute of Petroleum. He was also a member of many different scientific societies. Some of those societies are, the American Chemical…

To the ASME, improving the general welfare of society through the utilization of the specialized skills of engineers is highly stressed. One must consider the possible consequences of actions and decide the best course of action to benefit the safety and health of the public. The ASME requires engineers to take responsibility for one’s actions. Falsification of facts, omission of information, and deceitful actions to any employer, coworker, or member of the public is forbidden. The welfare of…

York School of Civil Engineering and Architecture and the Brooklyn Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute, were established. The school's fundamental grounds is in Brooklyn's MetroTech Center, a urban scholarly mechanical exploration park. History On May 17, 1853, a gathering of Brooklyn specialists composed a sanction to build up a school for young fellows. Named Brooklyn Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute, the school moved into its first home at 99 Livingston Street in Brooklyn. The five…

splitting of a uranium atom. Scientists believed that the energy harvested could be useful to making such powerful weapons. The Manhattan Project was a code name given in 1941 for the devising of the atomic bomb. At one point, there were over 120,000 Americans that were employed in this project, and almost two billion dollars were put into research. Isabella Karle is a scientist who worked in the field of crystallography, and during the Manhattan Project she worked on plutonium chemistry. With…

The number of mobile phone users in the world is expected to pass the five billion mark by 2019. In 2014, nearly 60 percent of the population worldwide already owned a mobile phone. The invention of the cell phone is estimated to continue growing, rounding up to 67 percent by 2019. Motorola was the first company to produce a handheld mobile phone. In 1973, Dr. Martin Cooper invented the first personal handheld telephone while working for Motorola. In 2000, the first Symbian phone, the…

the large and small scale to achieve such an end. Recent technological and scientific advancements have enabled scientists and engineers to protect and benefit the economy, people and the planet through implementation of Green Chemistry. The American Chemical Society Green Chemistry Institute describes green chemistry as a different perspective on how chemistry and chemical engineering should be done to reduce waste, conserve energy, and utilize replacements for hazardous substances. Through a…

petroleum engineers have been able to implement a new and effective way to extract oil from the ground. The hydraulic fracturing also known as fracking is used in nine out of 10 natural gas wells in the United States with the purpose of extracting oil and natural gas (Freeman, 2014). Fracking is a drilling method, and consists of special ground stimulating techniques that can be vertical, horizontal, or in directional sections, where millions of gallons of water, sand, and chemicals are…
