It used to be that the only people who could afford cosmetic surgery were the rich and famous. Those not living in mansions looked to those living in the glamorous world with wonder because those people looked so much younger than they did regardless of age. Today, this isn't the case. Cosmetic surgery is now more affordable than ever and is just as common with people who live in two bedroom houses as it is with people who live in twenty bedroom mansions.

seen to vary at all energies. Having derived from radio discoveries, many quasars found interestingly do not emit radio waves in a detectable amount. Such are called quasi-stellar objects (QSO), but are lumped together in the category of quasar. In general, quasars actually are best seen and surveyed at X-ray (Finkbeiner 1992). While quasars have spectra similar to Seyfert galaxies, they tend to be farther away than Seyferts and appear point-like to the optical astronomer. So what is the source…

Julius Robert Oppenheimer is remembered as a well-renowned citizen-scientist whose efforts in the field of theoretical and experimental physics produced a cornerstone in weapon development and the knowledge of the atom, but what can we say accounted for Oppenheimer’s success in his endeavors? Was it his drive for the knowledge of science, or was it the patriotism he had for his country that drove him to work endlessly on the creation of the atomic bomb? In an article in Modern American Poetry…

Nissan Pick up trucks remain in high demand, and it is easy to see why. With several models to choose from, every driver should be able to find the vehicle that fulfills their demands.

Millions upon millions of cars are recalled every month, a staggering number that should give consumers reason for concern. What some may not realize is that recalls are not always handled in a timely fashion, even with rental cars. Unfixed Recalled Cars and Car Rentals Although rental car companies may eventually comply with the recalls, that doesn’t mean the affected models have been repaired. Furthermore, there are no laws stipulating that unfixed recalled cars cannot be rented. Here’s…

There are many astronomers out there, but the one person that stood out to me was Edwin Hubble. It is because of Edwin, we now have a better understanding on the distance in the universe and that it’s expanding. His research was very remarkable that he had a telescope with his name. Since Edwin established the scale of the universe and laid the observational basis, he helped us understand what are galaxies like in the universe. To start off, Edwin noticed a Cepheid variable in the Andromeda…

Impostor is a 1965 Chevy Impala that presents as a normal car with a very decadent paint job; under the hood is where the magic happens. The vehicle underwent numerous modifications in to house a Corvette C6 engine (Completed Builds). (Figure 1&3 Impostor) A 2008 Corvette chassis was placed into the 1965 Impala Super Sport, which posed a challenge as the Corvette is seven inches thinner and the Impala is fourteen inches shorter (Completed Builds). Further customization was placed into the…

Our Rube Goldberg machine used several physics concepts in order to complete its simple task, which was to turn on a Roomba. One of the most prominent physics concepts within our project was gravity and/or gravitational potential energy, which could be seen in places such as the inclined planes and the hammer swinging down. Gravity was the downward-pulling force that allowed the energy to be transferred from the top level, to the Roomba on the floor. The toppling rule was another major concept…

Conjunction Rule P(A) x P(B|A) = P(A-AND-B) = P(B) x P(A|B) The rule is general; it always works. If A and B are independent, then P(B|A) = P(B), and the answer will be the same as P(A) x P(B). © Lyle Crawford - 177 - A Common Confusion Joint probability and conditional probability are completely different things. Joint Probability…
