Humans have the tendency to attribute natural phenomenon to external and powerful forces, but in reality this events can be attribute to a radical alternative which states the world functions according to certain rules that are inherent in nature, no direct actions by gods. In addition the Earth consist of four basic elements which combined make all material on Earth: the earth, water, air, and fire. Science and Astronomy have roots in Greek thinkers. One of the most influential to Astronomy…

The source I chose to evaluate is an article called “Is Pluto a planet?” written by Graham Rax. This source was published by Kalmbach Publishing Company in 1999, and mainly talked about is the Pluto should be consider as a planet or not. For this paragraph, it mainly talks about what is planet, what the figure does the Pluto has, and it give a conclusion that we can’t define the Pluto as a planet or treat is as a member of Kuiper Belt. We can tell that the article was published by a formal…

Safe spaces are used to help those who feel unaccepted due to their background, lifestyle, capabilities, or for those who were triggered by a certain event. These safe spaces can help provide comfort and create a place for students to express themselves without being judged, but maybe these safe spaces are becoming too much of a problem on campuses. In the article, “Hiding From Scary Ideas,” Judith Shulevitz mentions many incidents where safe spaces have done more harm than good. I believe that…

College carry laws, or laws that allow concealed weapons on college campuses, are quickly becoming more and more abundant. It’s not safer, the regulations make it almost impossible to make the weapons safer, and untrained students often hurt more than they help. Many people believe an armed America is a safer America. This is not true; however, since concealed weapons have been more readily available shootings and gun related crimes have increased. This applies to college campuses as well. Since…

With all of the violence shown on television today during entertainment programming such as dramas, it’s not surprising that people do not feel as safe as they once did about the society in which they live. It has been argued by many that the coverage of violence on television, has been dominated by storylines revolving around criminal behavior. This dominance or monopoly on the storylines of American television shows has been around for decades. Countless types of television programs have…

Uranus: Uranus was discovered in 1781 by a British Astronomer named William Herschel, using a 6 inch telescope. At first he thought that it might be a nebulous star or even a comet, but after continued observation, he realized that it appeared to be a disk in the sky that moved relative to the stars. The movement was far too slow to be a comet and soon enough he realized that he had discovered the 7th planet at the time. At first, he wanted to name it Georgium Sidus which translates to…

“Linnéa, would you be kind to solve 14.5 + 2.2.” Her teacher asks, stopping her thoughts. Wanting to make a good first impression on her classmates, Linnéa confidently walks up to the board, careful of not tripping on the extension cord lying across the mat. She doesn’t have to try, she is confident in herself and math. Linnéa is also erudite on the subject of math, but the sudden change and feeling of being so different has made her take a step back and not wanting to draw attention to her.…

The nearly perfect spherical object, located so close in the grand scheme of space but so far away from our precious planet, is a wondrous entity. It has been spiritually worshipped, contemplated as a mystery, and scientifically studied by others. It provides the ocean tides, the mood for romantic outings, and reflected light for seeing at night. Its depiction in work of arts, both literal and symbolic throughout history, is immense. The Art of the Moon exhibition explores the use of the Moon…

I have been a Comcast customer for over eight years, and have had serious customer service issues dealing with billing, service, and contracts over the years. Because I live on my Social Security, I called the Retention/Loyalty phone number on January 2nd to ask if I could sign up for a lower-cost 2-year service contract.
