Zodiac

My favorite constellation is Scorpius ("The Scorpion") due to the fact that I am a Scorpio (my birthday is November 15th). Scorpius is the southernmost constellation out of all the Zodiac constellations and is near the center of the Milky Way. Also, the red star, Antares, is located where the Scorpion's heart is supposed to be. The star is red because it should be going out soon. The Scorpion's heart may either turn into a black hole (which many describe our hearts to be like) or a new star.…

These two works have many principal elements in common, but are ultimately very different. Though they are comprised of the same materials, depict similar subject matter, and reflect similar influences, one would never mistake one work from the other. The content of these two paintings is comparable, but many formal properties and iconographic details are different. Both works appear to be oil on canvas. This was a popular medium in 16th to 17th century Latin America. Both works also feature…

Giving a name to a child that you’re seeing for the first time, and you have no idea what their personality will be, has to be a frustrating, exciting challenge. The most stressful part is that you’re reliable for your…

Cell Phones were the start of connecting people on their mobile devices. Then texting had its place.

With employers finding tweets or pictures of employees and potential employees, you have to closely monitor and drag yourself into social media. I believe that social media recently has had a negative impact on society. This…

the Sun sit inside a flat plane, called the plane of the ecliptic. This ecliptic is also the path taken by the Sun across the sky over the course of the year. There are twelve constellations lining the ecliptic. We know these constellations from our zodiac and the Sun passes through each of these constellations annually.

History Many people would agree that Planet Of The Apes was an iconic film, which is probably why they made multiple movies and a tv show. The film was revolutionary for the prosthetics they used for the apes. The film even won an Academy Award for its makeup effort. The movie actually started out as an idea for The Twilight Zone but it was too expensive for the show to make, so they brought it to 20th Century Fox. When they brought it to Fox they had to make a quick test scene. The movie ended…

“The Importance of History in Literature” Two English poets, John Donne and Margaret Cavendish, wrote during the periods known as the Renaissance and the Restoration respectively. “The Sun Rising” by Donne details a scene in which the speaker berates the sun for rising and disturbing him and his lover. “A World in an Earring” by Cavendish discusses the idea that on the inside of an earring there is a smaller version of our world. In the Donne poem, the speaker utilizes personification such…

Diversity is a complex term, but the simplest definition is differences amongst people.

These types of diversity are the focal diversities in an ESL classroom. In order to fully understand cultural and linguistic diversity, and how to approach the subjects of diversity, it is important to…
