If you kill someone, someone else will kill you… this hatred binds us together. I want you to feel Pain, to think about Pain, to accept Pain, to know Pain." To learn about the philosophy of Pain, first, we must look at Pain’s life, to see what influenced his mind and actions. Pain was not always known as “Pain,” but as Nagato. Nagato was born in The Village Hidden in…

some can be drastically different or they can be very similar. Ender seems to be very hard working in his different missions that his commanders give him. One point where he is very hard working is when he is in the battle with his team against Salamander Army and Rat Army and he created a very precise plan to win, and they did. He is also very smart. In his final test against the Buggers he was able to adjust his plan at the drop of a hat. Ender always seems to be very insecure and imitated by…

The students didn’t have anything physical to help them understand that death happens and people and things don’t stay in…

Cloning has been around for longer than you may think. Many believe that cloning is a futuristic process, but the history of cloning dates back to more than a hundred years ago. The first ever attempt to clone was made by Hans Adolf Eduard Driesch in 1885, when he attempted to duplicate a sea urchin. As hard as it is to believe, many different animals have already been cloned, including frogs, mice, sheep and cows. Plants are frequently cloned, and you can even clone a plant at your house by…

It was 4:07 on a beautiful fall day in October. The trees were covered with their fiery orange yellow and red leaves. Every color foliage offered was upon this road. This road was my favorite road, I walk this road every day, winter, summer, spring, and best of all fall. I have many memories on this old dirt road, my first bike ride, where I first drove a car and where I got married. Whenever I walk this road it brings back the old memories. I used to walk this dirt road with someone, my wife…
