The sun radiates energy in a wide range wavelength. Ultraviolet rays reach the earth surface in wavelengths that range between 290 and 400 nm. The impact of the wavelength to the surface of the earth is determined by size of the wavelength. When the wavelength is short, it causes a more energetic radiation that in turn creates more harm to the surface. Ultraviolet light is a form of electromagnetic radiation that is invisible to the human eye. The sun is a source of radiation that forms the full…

The Dao de Jing was written in ancient China during the Warring States period from 475–221 B.C.E (Bokenkamp, 2015). Lao-Tzu, the accredited mystical author of the text, sensed the impending downfall of the kingdom of Chu. Before Chu’s collapse in 221 B.C.E., Lao-Tzu had written the Dao de Jing at the request…
All throughout American History we have been taught about the Slavery, Civil rights movements, the presidents and many many wars. But, something that is always very much overlooked has been Dolores Huerta and Mexican American history in general. I believe that the knowledge to understand and to know who is Dolores and What she did to offer the Mexicans in the United States is something essential to fully understand the entirety of American History.
