Rain occurs when condensed moisture in the atmosphere falls to the ground in separate, visible drops and it provides us with another source of water and can be used to provide plants with water such as in rainforests or countryside. The hydrologic cycle allows for rain to form and pour down in different areas. Water from oceans, swamps, lakes, rivers are evaporated and turn into water vapor due to the water being heated by the sun or other means. This water vapor rises into the troposphere…

Throughout the United States, a demand for quality low-cost housing perseveres. High quality housing may not be readily available to lower-income families at affordable prices. The houses that are generally available to these families with lower income are often of poor quality and subpar structure. The substandard housing is qualified by having no indoor plumbing, unsafe or no electrical wiring and lack of heat (Phillips, Bennett & Ordner, 2009). According to the U.S. Department Housing and…

More than 150 years ago, the invention of the camera, a now every day item, was made and its later counterparts would be the technology to predict deadly catastrophes and save millions of people. This modern technology is known as remote sensing. The term “remote sensing” was used first by Evelyn Pruitt of the U.S. Office of Naval Research in the 1950s. It is “commonly used to describe science-and art-of identifying, observing, and measuring an object without coming into direct contact with it”…

The week before spring break, I attended another Cycle Bootcamp class. This experience was much different than my first one. When we got there, some girl made a sign-up sheet for the class and made the first 22 sign it to make sure no one cut the line.

I believe that it is a shame that in 2008, 12.7 million people were diagnosed with cancer and an additional 7.6 million people die from this tragic disease. The World Health Organization states that in the year of 2030, this statistic will grow to 21.4 and 13.2 million respectively (Fanghua, 2010, p.297). But, what is cancer. Cancer is a disease caused by non-stop division of cells and it can happen almost anywhere in the human body. People who are stricken with this disease are people who are…

mucus plug. What is the Mucus Plug? The cervix produces a special mucus referred to as cervical mucus. Cervical mucus is a natural protection that a women’s body produces. The mucus is secreted or discharged during different parts of the menstrual cycle and pregnancy.

Therefore, in 1970 Lenore Walker developed the social cycle theory known as the cycle of violence. She created this cycle in hopes of limiting some of the domestic violence and abuse that women were dealing with.
