“Fifty percent of the United States of America is underneath the ocean. And we have better maps of mars than those areas”- Robert Ballard. Robert ballard is a natural scientist/oceanographer. He was born on June 30,1942 in Wichita, Kansas. He later moved to San Diego and grew up there through his childhood. Robert Ballard got the idea of being an oceanographer one day by just reading the book called “Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea” Following what he loved to do he began working part-time for Andreas Rechnitzer’s Ocean systems group in 1692. Around that time he started working for submersible “Alvin” for the woods hole oceanographic institution. Robert ballard got accepted to the University Of Santa Barbara and earned degrees in chemistry…

Paul Allen is also into exploration. One of his vessels discovered the Us Navy warship the USS Indianapolis. He found the vessel somewhere in the Philippine Sea. The exact location is currently classified. This achievement is incredible considering the ship had been sunk in 1945 and no one had been able to locate it. Allen also discovered another second world war vessel but this time it had sailed a flag of the Rising Sun. He discovered the Japanese warship, Musashi. The vessel was found in the…

the British in the end. This resulted in French land in North America being surrendered to the Great Britain and also angered the Native Americans. Great Britain not wanting more problems with the Natives proposed that if the colonist stay east of the mountains and you stay west will that work? Natives agreed resulting in angry colonist.

In The Ways of Her Household, Ulrich talks about how women’s work in the 1700’s weren’t tangible like men’s work, but were distinctly important in order to keep the community and the family thriving. This theme is shown throughout Midwife’s Tale by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich. Martha Ballard’s diary shines a light on the everyday task of women in the late 1700’s and early 1800’s. Martha is simultaneously a “physician, nurse, midwife, mortician, pharmacist, and attentive wife.” Many people would have…

to inspire thousands of people. And that’s exactly what they did. Diana Ross, Florence Ballard, and Mary Wilson were three incredible women that made their mark on history. The Supremes were the top group of the sixties right behind the Beetles, and they inspired many people during the civil rights movement. Getting together The Supremes had a bumpy start, however after their big break;”Where did our love go”, in 1964, they became one of the most…

an early example shaker culture when Mr. Tanner gives young Robert the pig for help and apron with the calving. Mr. Haven and Robert are fixing the fence when Mr. Tanner brings the pig Roberts father states about accepting the pig “we thank you brother Tanner but it’s not the shaker way to take frills for being neighborly” (P 21). I think this shows that in the shaker culture they feel that is not right to accept a gift or payment for doing the right thing in any given situation are helping out…

The perspective of a work of literature changes from the first time you set your eyes on it. My point of view of the poem Porphyria’s Lover by Robert Browning changed drastically from the beginning of this research project till now. As I looked into information over this poem and different aspects about it, I began to have more of an open mind towards it and understand the true meaning behind it. I learned that poetry has more to it that just the words that were printed on the page. It allowed…

in the leadership’s hands than members of the House making it acceptable for Senate to serve longer terms in order to cater to the large and diverse constituencies. Term limits are a necessary evil that we need to address now. They are evil not in a way that harms the democratic process, rather evil because it would require change and most often people are highly adverted to change. Ironic as it may be, in order to see a change in our government we first need to make a larger change that will…

The Matrix, on the other hand, is more than just a thought experiment. It is a narrative that is judged aesthetically, and as such its success requires that its creators produce something that will captivate and engage an audience. Carroll has asserted that, narratives, far from being complete, have gaps which need to be filled by the audience. That is, creators of narratives do not spell-out every detail of the narrative, instead, narratives rely on the elicitation of moral emotions from an…
