Oil is usually found deep under ground, but the greater Los Angeles area up through the Santa Barbara area is one of a few places in the world where oil is not just close to the surface, it is on the surface, bubbling in cold pits of bitumen, also known as asphalt and tar. This asphaltum has been important to humans for as long as they have lived in the region. In the past it was primarily used to waterproof boats, water carriers, and cooking vessels or as an adhesive. Now, of course we use…

In 2014, the US alone used 98.324 quadrillion BTUs of energy. Roughly 82% of that was fossil fuels. Renewable resources accounted for 10%, including solar, wind, hydroelectric, and more, and the remaining 8% was nuclear power. This energy was used to do everything from power our televisions to turn on our lightbulbs. Unfortunately, our reliance on fossil fuels brings with it serious side effects, including global warming. Because of these issues, a variety of alternative energy sources has been…

Neurofeedback Training for Reactive Attachment Disorder Reactive attachment disorder typically involves infants and children in their early childhood years. The disorder is generally in response to the lack of interactions and bonding that should occur in the infancy and early childhood stages of a child’s life (American Psychiatric Association, 2013, p 265). The child experiences social neglect and is deprived of the initial and ongoing bonding that occurs by having their basic emotional and…

Energy is the power derived from the utilization of physical or chemical resources, especially to provide light and heat or to work machines. Energy is all around us and can be created from many things such as oil, natural gas, coal, wood, water, wind, and petroleum. Most industrial nations use fossil fuels, which are natural fuels formed in the geological past from the remains of living organisms such as coal, natural gas and oil to be driving force that powers their modern industrial societies…

Early adulthood characterizes individuals 20 to 35 years of age, who are typically energetic, active, healthful, and centralize romance, family building, companionship and careers. PHYSICAL CHANGES Physical changes in early adulthood are too slow and steady to notice. The cardiorespiratory system generally doesn't change much during this time period (Berk 342). In healthy individuals, the volume of blood pumped during one heartbeat doesn't change much during adulthood. Most of the changes…

There are a lot of complex pieces to a child’s development both cognitively and physically with many intertwining systems and mechanisms. “Child-development researchers usually examine different domains or areas of development, such as physical growth, cognition, language, and social relationships” (Barnfield & Kail, 2012, p.19). In this paper, the child was observed and assed based on five different domains which includes physical growth, cognitive domain, emotional domain, social and…

Nuclear power us one of the biggest and best power sources known today. Nuclear fusion and fission makes a lot of excess usable energy. It produces a lot more energy than wind, solar, coal, or fossil fuels do, and they actually are better for the environment than coal or fossil fuels, producing helium rather than carbon monoxide.In short, nuclear power is a good idea because we can take care of the nuclear waste, the reactors have better safety measures and protocols than normal factories, is…

“The science of today is the technology of tomorrow” Edward Teller (Source D). Energy is a part of our lives, whether we acknowledge it or not. It is the power source that makes up our day and effects our activities throughout. Our society depends on energy, and our energy depends on oil; oil that is harming our earth and running out fast. With that comes problems that we do not have the solutions to. Because of this, many people are wondering what is the answer to Earth’s energy need for our…

when children learn the most; by age three a child’s development reaches eighty percent. As James and Nelson express “brain development is a complex set of processes that begin within a few weeks of contraception and continue until adulthood” (as cited in Holden, 2014, p. 189). Without healthy growth, a child can have many learning, behavior problems even mental and health problems. It is consequential, that parents promote healthy development. There are three periods of neurological growth that…

We as teenagers are allowed our freedom or are we not? Yes if we were to have a curfew rule that is against our freedom, for we have so many rules we have to follow and passing a new one is unreasonable. Violence that happens at night or past midnight isn't necessarily due to the fact that we are out in the streets at the time, but it’s due to those who are much older than us that start it. If violence occurs police should stay vigilant and watch over what we do so nothing happens. No curfew,…
