Think tank

A weapon that has been with war for almost the entirety of the previous century and all of this one thus far, the tank, has changed warfare in many ways. The advent of mobile armored weaponry all started with the tank, albeit in its most rudimentary of forms. At first, this new weapon did not seem like a game changer, but that did not last forever. The tank evolved into a more mobile and armored piece of machinery, tactics changed to account for these beasts of metal and fossil fuel, and the…

1. The class system ranks groups of people based on things such as education, wealth, and occupation. However, because there is so much variation between people, a framework is needed to form a consensus about who belongs to what class and why. The six-class system is the most widely used framework for that purpose. The six-class system is comprised of the upper class, upper-middle class, middle class, working class, and working poor (79). Each group is divided by education, occupation type…

zoo keeper, while he drops a gold coin into my tank. When he walks away, I slowly slide down from my perch that was up on top of the fake little rainbow, that they had given me for my tank. I didn’t like the rainbow that much, but I guess it will have to do. In my opinion the rainbows back home were the best. Colors mixed perfectly in the golden rays of the sunlight. The rainbow in my tank was the complete opposite. It had a glare from my warm yellow tank light and the colors were all wrong. As…

post that the Indians had control of, only killing a few camels. The indians did not have enough time to prepare a minefield but quickly put down some anti- tank mines. The indian forces laid down fire as the tanks were coming closer. A few of the Indian soldiers hoped in a jeep with a gun mounted on the back and whet out and fired on the tanks that were stuck in the sand, damaging or…

tell them that wearing a tank top is inappropriate. Orenstein explains how her daughter will be restricted to wear short shorts next school year. I think that dress codes have become too strict. In some school’s girls cannot wear strappy shirts or tanks, yoga pants, or shorts that do not past your mid-thigh. I agree with this article The Battle Over Dress Codes, that dress codes have become too strict and unreasonable. In The Battle Over Dress Codes the author talks…

health and life span decreases in the tanks is that the bacteria and chemicals, like chlorine, used in tanks peel of their skin. Sadly, those chemicals and bacteria can also cause the animals to go blind. If we don’t sit in a tank of chemicals…

SeaWorld’s Orca Problem Every year, millions of people are drawn to marine parks to see captive animals, including everyone’s favorite, the killer whales, perform in shows for their entertainment. Not many people think about what goes on behind these said shows. What we don't think about is the torture, maltreatment and even forced insemination that goes on in these “wonderful” places. Captured from the wild In the open ocean, orcas are smart, cooperative creatures. They work together to find…

When the whales bite on their metal tanks they develop bad dental health. Do you think that whales should be in captivity or do think they shouldn't be in captivity. Why should whales be in captivity when they have so much more life to live than when they live in the wild. As I said earlier wales life span is decreased by like 40-50 years…

Like reading from some unseen script, she knows next he’ll want to watch some TV war story from Iraq or Afghanistan. Tank was straddling two worlds. His body was physically within the relative safety of being home. Nonetheless, he functions as if still surrounded by danger in the war zone. It was a challenge and a struggle that they never trained him for. For Tank, it would prove just too much. “Ellie, I typically have a terrible time settling into being home. Why don’t we watch the tube…

Home water heaters are equipped with temperature and pressure relief valves, whose job it is to open when the pressure inside the tank reaches 150 psi or the temperature reaches 210℉. This discharge of water protects the water heater from damage and though a leaking pressure relief valve is a good thing, it’s still an indication that there is a problem inside the water heater that…
