A volcano is a surface landform resulting from the extrusion of magma from underground as lava, ash, rocks, and gasses are erupted in various proportions. Each year, around 60 major volcanoes erupt globally. How hazardous each one is dependent on a variety of human and physical factors that determine the level of impact on human activity that each event exerts. I will be looking at how the physical properties of a volcano, interact with human variables to make certain volcanoes more hazardous…

and experience. However, there are people out there who masquerade as psychics or mediums, when they have very little or no psychic ability. These people are adept at reading body language as well what people are saying to them; they keep their predictions generic with a 'one size' fits all approach. A true psychic will be happy to tell you of their psychic history, as well as how their abilities developed over the years. However, you need to keep an open mind when you consult a psychic and be…

When comparing both economics and psychology, it is true that both of the social sciences look at the behaviour of individuals and how they react to situations where they are faced to make a decision. However the way both of the two go about it is very different to a small extent. Economics defines rationality as consistent choices made by people to maximise their self interest and utility. It also assumes that people are able to make choices whilst processing all the information without…

Reiss and Moreno 2001 Background The study Reiss and Moreno 2001, by Diana Reiss and Lori Moreno, centers itself around the intelligence of animals. Specifically, Reiss and Moreno wanted to identify whether animals, other than humans and apes, were able to recognize themselves when looking at a mirrored surface. Until this study, no other animals had demonstrated mirror self recognition (MSR). Humans were found to not develop this ability before 18-24 months of age. If it was established that…

Today people use Internet to watch and listen their preferred TV and radio programs live, watch movies, read a newspaper or books, and one more big advantage, for some of them, is the opportunity to work remotely, without having to be physically present at the workplace. The development of the Internet was accompanied by a phenomenon of the explosion of social networks, such as Facebook, Twitter, etc. Thanks to them, people can always be in touch with their friends or to find those that have…

My prediction of the person response of my violation was different of how he responded back. I wanted the person to be creep out or feel uncomfortable. If someone was leaning to me really close I would of said something to them like do you mind? Because I think…

parents. Let’s compare these estimated lists my parents’ actual lists. My mother’s lists of traits for my future significant other included: trustworthy, honest, patient, intelligent, unselfish, and confident. My father’s list - unlike the predictions of my teacher - is just as big, if not bigger, than my mother’s list; funny, smart, patient, considerate, cat-loving, hard working, and confident in…

that allowed her to predict to future and that she told many people about the Greeks in the Trojan Horse (Bell). The first reason Cassandra is a hero is because she had the ability to predict future events, but unfortunately no one believed these predictions because Apollo cursed her (Kravitz 53). Robert E. Bell, who worked in seven libraries, including UC Davis, studying mythology in all them, wrote three reference sites on mythology, and went to five colleges, including Harvard, writes:…

The Age of Revolt Recently, United States citizens swarmed to the cinemas for a chance to watch in horrified fascination as fictional dystopias were projected in front of them. One must ask themselves, where does this obsession originate from? What is the appeal? Some may conclude it is just fascination at the idea of such a horrible society. After reading Aldous Huxley’s, Brave New World, the reader might wonder: is the fear stricken into said movie-goers coming from the fear that we could be…

of population is inspired by Malthus’ views on the human nature reproduction, societal posturing, and integrity. Malthus’s progressive and visionary rationalization, abstracted him from conventional European contemplation, padded with practical predictions supported by mathematical statistics and biological understandings of human nature. His compositions have brought up many social and economical world issues that humans face today like food production, population control, extreme poverty,…
