The Blacktip Reef Shark is native to the tropical coral reefs of the Indian and Pacific Oceans. The Blacktip is listed under kingdom animalia, phylum chordata, class Chondrichthyes, order Carcharhiniformes, family Carcharhinidae, and genus Carcharhinus. This shark was given its name based off of the blacktip at the end of its dorsal fin. This fin appears very vivid in the shark’s youth, but fades with age. The Blacktip Reef Shark will most likely grow to be 4.9 feet and weigh roughly 40 pounds,…

October 2015 South Africa South Africa is located south of the equator in the southern hemisphere, its absolute location is 30 degrees South and 25 degrees East.

Diversity is a huge feature in South Africa because it has about 11 official languages as well as many different cultures and ethnic groups. South Africa has one of the continent's largest economies, and also is the only country…

The question I wish to answer is why BBP formulas are so much better at calculating pi than any other method that came before it. I find it interesting that this method only provides the exact digit of pi in question and does not require the calculation of any of the previous digits of pi. For all of the methods that proceeded it like the polygon approximation and infinite series methods, each digit was required to be calculated before the next one could be found. Another compelling fact is that…

The pawn shop is one of the central images in the poem "Evolution". This pawn shop was set up by Buffalo Bill and he had put it right on the border of a Native American reservation. It happened to be right across the street from a liquor store. This would make the Native Americans come inside the pawn shop, after the Native Americans would sell or pawn everything, they had just to go across the street and buy liquor. Buffalo Bill had used this location to prove that the Native Americans were…

in the name of the Queen. My research question is, To what extent did the Indian Military contribute to Allied victories in World War 2 from 1939-1945? Indian soldiers were selected from many different castes, and religions, including Hindus, Muslims, Christians, and Sikhs. Many, many soldiers were used extensively during the First World War. Lots of them sacrificed their lives for a less purposeful war. A lot of Indian soldiers also had no choice to fight. This subject has greatly interested…

In a film directed by Chris Eyre, “Smoke Signals,” is the story of two Indian boys in a journey. At Idaho 's desolate Coeur d 'Alene Indian reservation, Victor and Thomas grew up together. They are not exactly friends, but they have a special connection that built up throughout the story. Victor Joseph is the stoic, athletic young man who is mostly ignored by others. On the other hand, Thomas Builds-the-Fire is the goofy, young man who is a true believer of spirits and he makes every effort to…

In V. Spike Peterson and Laura Parisi’s article, Are Women Human? It’s Not an Academic Question, they explore how heterosexism and the gender binary that underlies it are inextricable from western state making, and argue that, as a result of the pervasiveness of heterosexism, human rights are “problematic terrain for women and all who are stigmatized by association with the feminine” (Peterson & Parisi 154). Over the course of their critique of human rights, Peterson and Parisi make the claim…

Cabazon Band of Mission Indians was a case that barred states from interfering with tribal gaming. These tribes were very fortune to have decisive, courageous and politically skilled leaders; but they also succeed because of the location and their arid lands were seen as unsuited…

the people 's freedom we stole from was that of the Native Americans. In Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, the author Dee Brown tells the story from the Natives perspective, and really shows how in most cases the U.S. government acted poorly in most Indian related matters. The mistakes the United States Government made, could have easily been prevented if they had considered the Natives as humans. In chapter 4, The Cheyenne, Arapahos, Sioux, and other tribes agreed to let the whites use their land…

social power. The advancement of the trading routes, new items found and made, and the political and monetary power gained through trade all worked together to make this time period an “Asian Age”. To begin this discussion I would like to discuss the Indian Ocean Trade. This was a largely popular form of maritime trade. The only issue with this from of trade was what to do in order…
