Global Warming Global warming has become a major issue for us today. Global warming is an increase in temperature caused by many different natural and manmade reasons. Because of global warming, not only are humans affected, but also animals who struggle to survive and the plants who allow us to survive. Global warming is becoming a bigger risk for all of us each day. Even though there are many causes and effects, there are many ways to prevent global warming as well. Global warming has various…

Imagine that a freshly opened lint roller that was left lying on the couch. After a few minutes the brush is longer clean and certain areas have become colorful and fury. This is because the particles from the couch and the air are beginning to stick to the tape on the outside layer. For the brush that is okay because this layer can be removed, and the process can be repeated over and over. So many of the particles found in the air can cause harm to our lungs, but one that is least expected is…

Take a look at a typical elementary classroom, there are blank walls, straight rows of desks, and the teacher's podium is place at the front of the room to show ownership or authority. That is it. Now take a look at a 20th century schoolhouse classroom. It has the same basic feel to it as the classroom from today has. With the changing of our culture and technologies, there needs to be a change in our classroom settings as well. The room should be fun and inviting with bright colored walls and…

contribute to Neptune's colour.[15] Neptune's atmosphere is sub-divided into two main regions; the lower troposphere, where temperature decreases with altitude, and the stratosphere, where temperature increases with altitude. The boundary between the two, the tropopause, occurs at a pressure of 0.1 bars (10 kPa).[13] The stratosphere then gives way to the thermosphere at a pressure lower than 10−5 to 10−4 microbars (1 to 10 Pa).[13] The thermosphere gradually transitions to the…

Global Warming is one of the world’s most pressing issues to date. As carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases collect in the atmosphere, sunlight is absorbed and radiation is trapped in the earth’s stratosphere (MacMillan, 2016). This process results in the earth’s surface warming. Such a process can have various effects including rising sea levels, increased frequency and intensity of storms, and extreme weather and temperature differences across the globe (MacMillan 2016). Though global…

And yet, when Winston returns from the woods, his awakening does not effectively translate into action. The novel that opened with a man’s bold words of dissent, “DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER,” —closes with the same man’s declaration of love: “he loved Big Brother.” How does this radical transformation occur in Winston Smith—and moreover, what can it tell us about the power of language in totalitarian states? To answer these questions, let us turn, once again, to Hannah Arendt. In The Origins of…

A rustic oak desk sat in the middle of a dimly lit room. Various office supplies were neatly placed around the surface, though there was a distinct lack of electronics, laptop or otherwise. There were no loose papers, everything was neatly stacked, either in the outbox or inbox. Normally both would be full, but it was well past closing time, and the secretary had already emptied both. The morning would bring a fresh pile of folders, but for now, there was a single folder in the center of the…

“The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, But the heart of fools is in the house of mirth” (New King James Version, Eccl. 7:4). From this wise Biblical proverb stems the title of Edith Wharton’s second novel The House of Mirth. The narrative examines Lily Bart, a seemingly prosperous and confident young New Yorker plagued by self-hatred and debt. The common literary allusions “gilding the lily” and “consider the lilies” better illustrate these negative attributes, which ultimately…

Describe a change that you tried to initiate in your school. Why did you undertake this change? What challenges did you encounter? How well is it working and how do you know? Why undertake this change? Did you know that at a minimum 180 academic hours per school year are lost due to disciplinary problems in the classroom? In addition, troubled students in the classroom cause a decline in peer standardized testing. Furthermore, students and parents lose confidence in the educational system,…
