MARBLE Marble is created from limestone. It is characteristically soft and a metamorphic stone that can be polished. Homeowners must take special care of their marble, because it can be easily stained and etched by acidic compounds. There are many different forms of marble across the globe, and that is one of the reasons it has remained so popular throughout the years. Marble has an elegance that has passed the test of time. It was used throughout the ancient world because it was soft enough…

We the people should never make English the official language of the United States. Should we ignore our rich ancient and current lingual diversity? That’s just hypocritical for us being known as the “melting pot”. The reign of the long, long history of xenophobic paranoia will rise. And in the past, language enactment have not gone well for other countries. First of all, this advocates xenophobia- the fear and hatred of anything that’s foreign. This argument would raise fears that American…

Julianna When riding through the city of Julianna into a small district, there is a change in setting, from a typical fast paced city to a utopian upscale neighborhood. There is a plaza on this route and if you blink you could miss it. It includes two concrete columns that appear more as construction debris rather than a typical art installation and an almost castle looking piece of architecture. The streets around here are all new, redeveloped and reborn. Buildings in the area, to the everyday…

A Christian supplication ensures her auto begins. A Tibetan Buddhist Mandala swings from her back perspective mirror to ward of mischances. She utilizes somewhat White Light to clear her way through activity and discover a parking spot. A Rose Quartz gem enhances her work area to advance an amicable workspace. When she gets stuck, she channels an answer from an Ascended Master or counsels her Angel Guide. After work she goes off to a Pagan full moon occasion to rehearse a witchcraft function…

Orogeny during the Lower Devonian period. Originally deposited as sedimentary rock, the bedrock underlying the Ely Mine site is highly metamorphosed. It is largely comprised of noncarbonaceous quartz-mica schist and feldspathic quartzite, interbedded with amphibolite in some regions. The dominant minerals include quartz, feldspar, mica, hornblende, and…

The Antler orogeny occurred in the Mississippian passive margin of the sialic North American continent in Nevada and probably in Idaho (Speed and Sleep, 1982). Speed and Sleep (1982) proposed an Arc-continent collision model for the Antler orogeny. In their model they assume that The Roberts Mountain Allochthon formed as a result of the large accretionary prism underthrusted by the continental slope and outershelf. The vertical loading and downflexing of the continental shelf by the allochthon…

Samples were placed in a quartz and scattering was collected at a 90-degree geometry using a filter to reject Rayleigh scattering. A laser equipped with another filter provided a wavelength at 405 nm onto the samples with a power of 4 mW for 20-40 min for each spectrum. The Raman…

In Ancient Egypt, one of the duties of the king’s was to build and maintain temples to their gods. “The Egyptian word for temple was “god’s house.” These temples were meant to be the home of the gods and would need to have everything a god would need. The temple complex would need to have land, livestock and the people necessary to work the land. Temple complexes were not only built for the gods but were also built for the kings. (Temple) During Early Dynastic Egypt, temple complexes…

Emily Dickinson’s explains how after awhile you suffer through pain; pain eventually passes by. The languages she uses to communicate with her readers are mysterious or undefined. Emily Dickinson’s gives her readers of a better understanding when dealing with pain. She…

The Tuscarora formation is a light-gray sandstone with quartz grains imbedded throughout it. Most exposed Tuscarora specimens were dark and weathered on the exterior but were light colored on the interior and comprised of fine to coarse grains. The Tuscarora formation is about two hundred meters thick. The Castenea formation is found in parts of the Tuscarora formation. It is typically observed as a dark brown-reddish layer binding a middle section of lighter brown fine grain well sorted…
