It was a year ago that I was first hit with the utterly shocking realization that I was on the brink of adulthood, with no conceivable plan for the navigation of such. I was driving my car alarmingly fast down an empty country road when my back tires hit a remarkably slick patch of ice, and proceeded to spin quickly into a ditch. Sitting in the ditch gifted me a peaceful time of contemplation, allowing me to come to the realization that I had absolutely no clue how to get myself out of the…

Endothermy has a lot of benefits and costs compared to ectotherms. Endotherms depend on their bodies metabolism to produce enough heat to raise their body temperature. Endotherms balance heat production with heat loss. Each endotherm has a range of environmental temperatures that keeps its body stable and it does this by regulating the heat loss and heat production. They regulate their body heat by vaping their metabolic rate and change its rate of heat loss by adjusting their insulation.…

Introduction: Opium Smokers in an Opium Den, Qing Dynasty It was way past sunrise, and yet no one could be seen in the streets. There was no one walking around, tilling the fields, or preparing for a new day. Instead, people gathered around a small, round table with their metal pipes, pumping the smoke in and out of their throat. The sound of the inhale and exhale was all a visitor could hear. People then lay down for hours at a time, caring about nothing but fulfilling their daily cravings…

Time after time again we would tattle tale on each other. A family of four kids, I am sure you can only imagine all the fights that went on during the early Saturday mornings when we were up, but not trying to wake mom and dad. It would all start after the TV shows we all agreed on finished. Chaos usually started shortly after we could not all agree on a TV show or a movie. Whoever had the controller was usually seen as the “bad guy” only because they would never put on what everyone else wanted…

3A.2.10 Robustness A method is robust if it is unaffected by small changes in operating conditions. To evaluate the robustness of developed analytical method few parameters were deliberately changed. The parameters included analysis at different temperatures viz. 250C and 300C, at 0.8 and 1.0 mL/min flow rate, using C18 columns from different manufacturers one from Qualisil BDS, USA (4.6 x 250 mm x5µ) and the other from LC-GC, India (4.6 x 250mm x5µ). Each of the three selected factors were…

Asbestos has played a pivotal role in the construction, electrical and automotive industries for many decades due to its excellent thermal and abrasive properties (Brandt 2008). The term asbestos comes from ancient Greek word meaning "inextinguishable". According to Hart (1988), the use of asbestos dates back to prehistoric times where asbestos fibers were woven into a fabric and used as wicks in oil lamps. Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral which is mined from the earth’s crust. It…

Chores done, nurse left saying she'd call back around tea time. Michael was soon up stairs asking lots of nothings, smiling, as pleased as punch. A wrinkly sight was Raymond, with a thatch of jet-black hair. He had settled from the smack on his bottom. Michael and Rose embraced looking adoringly at each other and feeling as pleased as punch. ‘What did he weigh’ he asked? ‘6 pound 3 ounces and lungs that will put Benjamin Gigli to shame’ Rose laughed. In fact not really knowing what to say or…

"The course of genuine romance never ran smooth," remarks Lysander of adoration's complexities in a trade with Hermia (Shakespeare I.i.136). In spite of the fact that the play A Midsummer Night's Dream absolutely manages the trouble of sentiment, it isn't viewed as a genuine romance story like Romeo and Juliet. Shakespeare, as he unfurls the story, deliberately separates the gathering of people from the feelings of the characters so he can personification the anguish and weights persevered by…

metals and other toxic chemicals (Smucker et al. 2011). The United States put limitations on the amount of dumping allowed per industry in lakes; however, in 2009, the U.S Supreme Court allowed Coeur D’Alene Mines to dump almost 7 million tons of tailings from the Kensington Gold Mine in Alaska into Lower Slate Lake causing mass destruction of all plant and animal life. Mining companies, such as hard rock mining companies, are dominant contributors to water pollution that will ultimately last…
