Tesla Model S is regarded as an “evolution in automobile engineering” (Teslamotors.com, 2015). With its dual motor feature at the front and rear wheels (see Figure 2 above) resulting in “unparalleled traction control in all conditions”, Tesla Model S is a definite enhancement on a usual conventional four-wheel drive system. (Teslamotors.com, 2015) Every individual Model S is constructed to be lighter, smaller and more efficient to provide both faster acceleration and improve range, enabling the…

During the Cold War, The United States Government, Armed Forces, and Central Intelligence Agency faced the formidable task of having to battle and contain the spread of the communist, socialist, and Marxist ideologies of the Soviet Union across dozens of countries around the world without igniting another “hot” or total war. Since the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, United States history has aimed at encouraging the belief that the United States is a force for the good in…

some view the leading men the Civil War. Many figures have taken on a mythic quality over the years. Whether it be the stoic, strong, Christian leadership of Robert E Lee and Stonewall Jackson or the rough and tumble no-nonsense strength of Ulysses S Grant, history and memory have shaped them into perfect beings that have been praised for years. However, these views were not always the case for everyone. In a speech by…

I remember watching “Iron Man” in 2008. Iron Man is one of the best action films in Marvel series. This film is based on innovative technology and science. As most people know, in this film, there is a superhero named Tony Stark. Stark is a billionaire, running Stark Industries in New York. I have a habit that I always do research on a film only after watching an inspirational film. After watching “Iron Man” and researching the film, I found out that Elon Musk is the inspiration for the…

Growing Up Too Fast Some children have to grow up too rapidly. What I mean is that some people’s families might not be there, with them, so they have to do everything by themselves.

Hinton the greasers have to grow up too fast. They do this because…

Lewis took issue with raw romanticism believing that it would self-destruct and be unsuccessful in keeping its word. It does not work well. Lewis states his case in point by identifying the romantics whose focal point of their works was nature: This love, when it sets up as a religion, is beginning to be a…

C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien are considered to be two of the greatest authors of the last century. Ralph C. Wood in his article “Conflict and Convergence on Fundamental Matters in C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien” analyzes the stylistic and philosophical differences between these two authors. His article focuses on the correlation between an author’s philosophy and writings. Although Wood makes valid arguments he is clearly biased towards Tolkien, therefore affecting his credibility. Wood…

The second group of historical interpretations depict the Klan as a political organization determined in its fight for political dominance over the Republican Party present during the era of Reconstruction. The Ku Klux Klan itself was racially motivated, using violence and aggression to regulate who could and who couldn’t hold positions of office.
