A situation where I experienced all six stages of Brommel’s Stages of the Conflictual Process is with an ex-boyfriend of two years. In the beginning of our dating process he had an ex-girlfriend that he still had feelings for which influenced him to stay in contact with her without my knowledge. Four months in he disappeared on me and cut all communication off with me. I then discovered that it was due to him returning to dating his ex-girlfriend. This made me livid. But after two weeks he…

On the morning of January 28, 1986, at 11:39 a.m., President Ronald Reagan sat in the Oval Office with his team of advisors putting the finishing touches on his State of the Union speech, which was slated to occur that evening (Cannon, “Challenger Disaster”). At this same moment in Cape Canaveral, Florida, the space shuttle Challenger began its launch. However, this spacecraft would never exit our atmosphere; 73 seconds after liftoff, it exploded, killing all seven passengers (“Challenger…

On the contrary, critics argue that funding of space exploration has some drawbacks. Most people believe that NASA’s activities consume too much taxpayer money from the U.S. Federal Reserve. The public also believes that NASA’s $17.647 billion budget on space technology is not being justified neither does it reap any benefits. However, this is a completely false allegation. NASA’s projects do not require a lot of funding as people think. According to Piantadosi (2012), “NASA’s large federal and…

Contemporary English playwright Tom Stoppard’s The Real Inspector Hound (1968) not only stands as a successor to Restoration playwright Richard Sheridan’s The Critic (1781) but does so without appearing as a mere doppelgänger and, instead, adds a new sense of depth with a critique of critics brought about by madness and facing one’s identity. The parallels drawn between the two plays do not mimic one another so much as present a multitude of ideas in a similar fashion. One of the major…

3rd Interview (1970-1980) When Marlena Peel was growing up, she played outside everyday and came home for dinner to the ringing of a bell. With her neighborhood friends she played games, rode bikes, and skated on skateboards. However, they never wore helmets or knee pads, and seat belts were never used passed infant car seats. When asked about popular fads, Marlena replied, “Big hair, parachute pants, and MTV was all the rage.” ATM’s, microwaves, touch tone phones, and the Internet were all…

On February 1, 2003, the Space Shuttle Columbia exploded over Texas and Louisiana upon re-entry into Earth’s atmosphere. The loss of the shuttle and its crew was from a piece of insulation foam that detached from the shuttle’s external tank. Fuel had nothing to do with the explosion, they burned the remaining fuel before re-entry. Space exploration takes a lot of money, the budget increased 3.1 percent from 2003 to 2004. The Columbia incident was the second of two tragedies of space shuttle…

The recommendations that the CAIB assigned to NASA would help to prevent this disaster from happening again. Since the exposing of the external fuel tank foam caused Columbia to explode the CAIB’s first recommendation was to improve external fuel tank foam. They will improve on this by using bolt catchers which will not allow for the external tank to break free (History.com Staff). In doing this future shuttles will not be able to lose a backup tank for emergencies. There are also important…
