That argument is that, “One chicken fewer sold makes no perceptible difference to the chicken produces, and therefore there can be nothing wrong with buying chicken”…

Ever since I was a little kid up to the young man I am today, I have been captivated by Mathematics and Science. To this day, I find myself with the…

As stated originally, our hypothesis for the laboratory experiment was that there is an inverse relationship between the percent abundance of tap water in a mixture and the size (diameter) (cm) of the bubbles produced from the respective mixture. However, our experimental process yielded just the opposite results- a direct relationship between the percent abundance of tap water in a mixture and the size (diameter) (cm) of the bubbles produced from the respective mixture- meaning that when there…

For this extra credit opportunity, I watched the first Republican debates of the 2016 campaign. Given that this assignment is for an advanced public speaking course, I focused most of my attention on the nonverbal communication of the debaters and their use of rhetorical devices, two qualities that distinguish advanced public speakers.
