Although the credibility of a 2002 experiment, mentioned in a 2017 Time Magazine article “The Sleep Cure: The Foundation of Youth May Be Closer Than You Ever Thought”, written by Alice Park, is outdated, this Time Magazine article proves sleep is more important than we ever thought it was by using persuasion and informing the audience.

is water adjacent which increases the overall value of value and appeal of the property, especially for housing developments. Geologically, the dense bedrock directly below the surface provides a solid foundation with few erosion issues, decreasing the chances of shifting in the future. The shallow-sloping limestone makes building easier as steep inclines are not apparent. Further development and access in this area affects both biotic and abiotic components of the wetland. The area provides…

The tremendous storm surge after the hurricane paralyzed the city of New Orleans because not only the city’s natural geographic features made it vulnerable to flooding, but also the built protective system failed and worsened the impact of flooding. The flooding ensued after…

Just like the schools in the India of Darkness, the village hospitals in rural India are also mute witnesses to the rampant corruption that overwhelms the whole society. The hospital does not have a doctor despite the eagerness of doctors to get posted in villages. To secure a village posting, the doctors must first bribe the Great Socialist and then bribe the hospital superintendent with a third of their salary if they do not wish to appear there for work. Thus, they can profitably work in…

Even with their contemporary impact, the Enlightenment-era Social Contract theorists were not without their detractors—two prominent critics being Mary Wollstonecraft and Karl Marx. Because each takes issue with the Enlightenment, one can theorize their responses to the assertion that "the Enlightenment ideals (EI) (of freedom and equality, firmly grounded in notions of reason and progress) are riddled with hypocrisy and should therefore be abandoned."
