Nickels, who is passionate about teaching and has a broad background in elementary education, became dissatisfied with the way other teachers thought about and taught mathematics. She realized that in order to make a change that went beyond her own classroom, she would have to go into higher education and…

If radon emissions and radioactivity is a concern for you, have your home tested to put your mind…

Glioblastoma Multiforme Glioblastoma Multiforme, or GBM, is the most aggressive and most common primary brain tumor, but it isn’t quite that simple. GBM has quite a complex background and can start in many different ways, so that’s why I feel I should start from the very beginning of GBM so that you can fully understand what it is all about. Let me start by saying that GBM is the highest grade of glioma brain tumors, so it only makes sense for me to tell where GBM and glioma tumors come from…

instead cause these clusters to scatter away from each other. [2] In simpler terms, there seemed to be an undetectable force that acted as a gravitational field, keeping the galaxies spinning within the cluster. Since this matter emitted no form of radiation on the electromagnetic spectrum, it emitted no light. Ergo, “dark” matter.…

Eric heard the loud crack of gun, and started running as fast as he could. As he ran, he could feel the wind rushing past him. He knew he wasn’t running fast enough, and tried to run faster, but he couldn’t. By then he knew he had lost the race.

In the late 1960’s the United States along with the help of National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in what was a very dangerous mission sent a man to the moon for the very first time. NASA sent three men Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins. Since that very day, there have been countless debates on if the moon landing actually happened or it was just a hoax…
