Lester Bangs

Lester Bowles Pearson was a Canadian soldier, who won the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1957 for organizing the United Nations Emergency Force to resolve the Suez Canal Crisis.

larger scale of audiences that can me used to promote other properties. I would select Sunday Night Football, The Big Bang Theory, The Voice and any of the films being released. I chose Sunday Night Football and The Voice because not only are you reaching a large age bracket, but there is usually lots of social media traffic in relation to the results of those two shows. The Big Bang Theory is a show that is very popular that appeals to all ages. In addition, it appeals to the audiences who can…

watch The Big Bang Theory on television. Those thirty minute airings had my whole living room roaring. We loved how awkward Sheldon was and how Leonard was always chasing pretty Penny.

For those who are not familiar, The Big Bang…

religion is not a good either, we must find a balance. Science like religion is a way of understanding the world around us and how it operates.

Discoveries would not be as rewarding today, without the curiosity and effort put into decoding them. Human curiosity is the sole reason we are atop the food chain as a species. We have the ability to push the envelope of reality to open new outlooks. It is human nature to explore and question the ideas as to why we have arrived on the earth in the way we have. For hundreds of years, humans have questioned the ideas and methods for why we do this in this way and why certain things react in the…

The TV show The Big Bang Theory has spent years as one of the top sitcoms in the United States, capitalizing on jokes about nerd culture and friendships between social outcasts. A group of scientists in California navigate their social lives, romantic lives, and professional lives with many difficulties backed by a constant laugh track.

I watch Big BangTheory all the time and I can think of many scenes that come to mind, but one in particular involved Sheldon and Rajneesh when Rajneesh comes to work with Sheldon and they are forced to share an office. There is a bit of a power struggle that goes on when Rajneesh wants to get his own desk for the office and Sheldon refuses. The struggle begins with Rajneesh completely defying Sheldon and he goes out and buys this huge desk that is so big that Sheldon can barely push the door…
