The Importance Of Farming Frankie found a tall thicket of wheat to hide himself in while he threw up. His spine quivered like the Tacoma Narrows, about to collapse, as he bent over to release what had built up within himself. He took off his hat, sat down next to the newly-created puddle, and wept. He heard someone walk by, crushing crops as they made a trail. They didn 't notice him, and in that moment he felt thankful for his crops. It was the closest thing to happiness he had felt in the…

Rosalind Elsie Franklin was a chemist and she was born in London England on July 25th, 1920. At just the age of 15 Rosalind Elsie Franklin decided she wanted to be a scientist. Receiving her education at several schools which also includes North London Collegiate School which she excelled in science. She was best known for the role she played in the the discovery of the structure of DNA, also her pioneering the use of X-ray diffraction. Franklin enrolled at Newnham College, Cambridge, in 1938…

It is often said that perception is reality. In Louise Erdrich’s novel, “Love Medicine,” this is not entirely the case. Lipsha Morrissey is a young man adopted by whom he calls his “Grandma” Marie Kapshaw. Marie in all appearances is what some would call “super-mom.” Tending to the needs of everyone around her, with the perception of a domestic goddess, most women aspire to be, with her strength clearly displayed. Lipsha’s real grandmother, Lulu, on the other hand, appeared to be…

properties of different forms of matter. There are two profound chemist whose findings were crucial to today's understanding of chemistry. There names were Marie Curie and Dimitri Mendeleev, both chemist made significant impacts on modern day science and society. Dmitri Mendeleev is responsible for the creation of the periodic table, while Marie Curie is responsible for discovering radioactivity, which advanced the world in medicine and understanding the structure of an atom. Which scientist had…

Marie Curie A glowing particle of radium sat in the dark with all of its pitchblende dirt particle buddies. A sliver of light was let in by the almost shut door, and as the sliver grew bigger, the shadow of a woman appeared on the ground. Marie Curie stepped into her lab, and began to gather the tools she needed. She picked up the little jar of pitchblende and brought it to a workstation and began sifting through it. The footsteps that had been working their way to the door finally reached it…

Angelou, and the upcoming Homecoming football game between Lane and Curie. In it I will be demonstrating why I believe that both lane and Curie are caged birds. My piece is titled “Escaping one's Cage”. Escaping One’s Cage. Before the game even began you could see the growing anxiety on the Lane Tech football team, they were about to go out representing their entire school, in front of an immense crowd in their own stadium. The Curie team was also worried, they were playing on Lane turf…

that’s another way it could make a magnetic field. Some uses of electromagnets is that they can become a circuit breaker but could be very dangerous. The curie point is the temperature when the magnetic field patterns change and strength. The most common curie point in ferromagnetism is around 570°C.…

Piezoelectricity was discovered in1880 by Pierre and Jacques Curie, However the term piezoelectricity was coined by W.G. Henkel in 1881.G.Lippman discovered reverse process that is to say on application of electric field mechanical stresses could be developed in 1880 .Which was experimentally proven by curie brothers in 1881. Piezoelectric materials can be natural or synthetic. Natural occurring crystals include quartz, topaz, silk, wood etc. While as synthetic are quartz like, ceramic polymers…

Waking up at seven o’clock in the morning on a Saturday was never an enjoyable experience for me as a kid. The drive from my small suburb of Mount Prospect to Chicago every morning was dreadful, because I knew that I was about to spend three extra hours of my week at school. At 8:30 in the morning, I would enter the doors of the school and sit down alongside my fellow Polish classmates. From preschool through the eleventh grade, I attended St. Constance School of Polish learning on…
