Discoveries often emerge from a process of deliberate and careful planning evoked by…

Spike Jones used VR to create “VICE News VR: Millions March,” which thrusts viewers into a 60,000 person demonstration. “Her” (2013) depicts love between a person and AI (artificial intelligence). This is a marked contrast from the dystopian future evoked by threats to humanity posed by HAL9000, from “2001: A Space Odyssey,” Skynet, from “Terminator," and the replicants*9 from “Blade Runner.” A number of commonalities can be seen between the works of the aforementioned innovative directors and…
Since many of these chemical methods have proven to be harmful, research has thus shifted to a more biological approach to antitermitic activities. Gupta, Sharma, and Naik (2011) discuss how essential oils have evoked interest as a natural product that holds promise for their potential insect management. In particular, they note that essential oils have been shown to possess insecticidal, anti-fungal, and antibacterial properties. Using naturally made insecticides will help decrease…

Given that P300 is an endogenous potential elicited by auditory discrimination when the subject consciously reacts to rare stimuli…

20 people out of every 100,000 people worldwide have Myasthenia Gravis (Myasthenia Gravis, 2012). Myasthenia Gravis is a disorder that causes skeletal muscle weakness. People experience the worst weakness during periods of activity and the weakness improves under periods of rest. The most common weakness is located in the muscles around the eyes. This causes blurred or double vision in the eyes. It also effects the muscles used in facial expression and chewing. These conditions can cause…
interpret what is experienced by our senses. However empiricist had viewed the mind in a passive nature, a “blank slate” on which is recorded the sounds, images, and sensations of experience. This coincides with cognitive potentials in our genetic equipment and to reach their fully evoked state, they need ongoing simulation of our experience. However the knowledge we gain by analyzing the categories is synthetic a priori knowledge. Therefore Kant believed that people can’t establish the…
how something makes me feel; and create a literary work to evoke an impression within the reader that I possess creativity or merely, to make my audience and myself notice my style. Consequently, when I write for class I attempt to explore the potential knowledge I can learn. Accordingly, while writing about a novel, I may learn an important symbol that I did not pick up until I read it a second time. Writing about a research topic I am bound to learn something I did not know prior.…
