The heat was intense. The orange light shone on the desert, drying up the remaining puddles of water into vapour, rising into the atmosphere. A lizard crawled slowly, almost dying, parched and with a hide so leather like, one would think it was crisp fried.
Slowly, I heard the intense ringing of the siren. Waaang waaaang waaang. It was time to get inside our shelters. The shelters were not made of concrete. Unlike the olden days, concrete was the material of choice. All buildings were once made from stone, from cement mixed with water to form hard solid blocks. ...

The very title of this article may seem to some readers fantastic. Is there any evidence that alien beings exist? Can we prove that there is no clear scientific argument in favor of their life and activity? Such questions immediately arise among readers, of course, they are quite natural. And yet, I will try to show that the statement of the problem in our time of exclusively rapid scientific and technical progress is quite logic. Moreover, most recently the first steps towards the solution of this great problem facing mankind were taken. Basically, from the scientific point of view ...

Introduction

Seasons are caused by tilting of the earth around its navigational plane known as the orbit around the sun. Climate change involves the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere. When the earth is in the Southern and Northern hemisphere means that the season is at summer. Changes in the tilt of the earth lead to changes in the severity of the seasons, for example when there is more tilt leads to more severe seasons including warmer summers and colder winter and when the tilt ...

Analysis of the title of the play “A Raisin in the Sun”

Introduction
The title of the play, “A Raisin in the Sun” has in depth meaning based on the literal outlook. First, we can look at the meaning of Raisin. A raisin is a dried grape. So, when we look at dried grapes, when left in the sun, the probability is that they will get worse in such a way that, a person might not admire them. The title thus has a direct connection to the story which is about dreams and realizing them in life. Many times, people often forget about their dreams letting distractions come on their way ...

“Paganism” is an extremely unclear term that appeared in church circles to refer to the pre-Christian era where people had diverse religious worldviews. Those were beliefs of primitive tribes, pre-Christian beliefs of the Slavs, Finns, Germans, Celts and pre-Islamic religion of the Tatars.
In East Slavic paganism there can be found all the stages that were intrinsic to other pagan cults that existed in other nations. The ancient extant sources testify the worship of the ancient Slavs to objects and phenomena. The worship of, for example, stones, trees, groves was the important constituent of those beliefs. The cult of ...

The “exclusionary rule” is one of the most important elements of United States criminal procedure law, but it is not found in the Constitution. Indeed, the exclusionary rule is a court created procedure that allows a judge to declare inadmissible any testimony or evidence presented at trial that was result of or otherwise obtained in violation of the Bill of Rights’ Fourth, Fifth, or Sixth Amendments. In other words, while the basis of the exclusionary rule is the Constitution, it is not a constitutional right. Rather the exclusionary rule was created as a means for the court to prevent ...

In the research made by de Crespigny on The Battle of Bowang which is historically known as the Battle of the Bowang Slope, he shared that it was a collision between the forces of two the warlords- Cao Cao and Liu Bei in the 202 reported late in the Eastern Han Dynasty (56).

Solar Energy Background
What can be more useful for humanity if not an unlimited power source, which we can use without any harm to the environment? Probably nothing, but solar power. Humanity has always tried to conquer the unlimited power of the sun – the history of solar technology dates back to the 7th Century B.C. and continues to this day. In the beginning, we tried to concentrate the sun’s heat by using glass, mirrors or other devices to light fires. From those times, we greatly progressed, but still we did not conquer this magnificent source of power.

Introduction

It is customary for the non-native speakers to substitute the correct pronunciation of the words with their versions of vowels and consonants. There are patterns of pronunciation of words in every language and it is believed that the non-native speakers utilize their habitual pronunciation of the new language. These patterns in language may persist at different levels. Some of the non-native speakers tend to learn new language faster, the others retain the traces of native language in their patterns of pronunciation through the years. This may root in different factors, such as the duration of practice in new language, ...

‘A Raisin in the Sun’ is about an African American family who struggle against racism and poverty to get out of the ghetto they live in and move into a white suburb. However Hansberry’s play is also filled with other themes such as pride, family, dreams and there are also many characters who dare to dream beyond their current life. The play focuses on racism, but on poverty as well. However, the beauty of the play lies in the fact that the central theme is family bondage. The poverty in their lives affects every member of the Younger ...

Global warming is the rise in average global temperatures. The rise in global temperatures is occasioned by the emission of greenhouses gases such as carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, methane, and nitrogen oxides. The gases are released from industrial process that combust fossil fuels such as diesel, coal, and petrol. Such processes include generation of electrical energy in thermal power stations, burning of coal in industrial boilers, and combustion of fossil fuels in internal combustion engines. When these greenhouse gases are emitted, they rise to upper levels of the atmosphere and form a layer that blankets the earth. This layer ...

First, the atmosphere of the planet should be taken into consideration. This is important since humans have evolved to survive in an atmosphere with ample amount of oxygen and other gases. Without an atmosphere ...

How Iconography and Hieratic Scale give us the Message of the Stele of Naram-Sin

The construction of the Victory Stele of Naram-Sin took place in the Sippar’s Sun God Cult in celebration of King Naram-Sin’s triumph over the people of the Lullubi Mountain.

Introduction

In information systems development (ISD) projects, three parties must understand each other’s knowledge domains for the project to proceed seamlessly and efficiently. These are the project manager, the development team and the business users. Project management and system development each have their own methodologies to work with while business users have the knowledge and deep understanding of the enterprise’s business objectives that are relevant to the project. One can liken their relationship as a triangle when each has to relate well to the other two.

Kuwait is a country located in the Middle East, which is a region characterized by severe water shortages as its located in the middle of a desert. Also, nearly all the electrical energy consumed in Kuwait is generated from fossil fuels such as natural gas and diesel. This situation poses several challenges. For example, the lack of enough clean water for domestic use could lead to serious problems such as waterborne diseases, such as cholera or typhoid. Also, water shortages can affect businesses such as agriculture and hospitality businesses. On the other hand, over reliance on ...

Once, mankind believed that the Earth is the center of the solar system, and the entire universe as well. Though tempting as it seems, this narcissistic view was perceived due to the observable motions of the visible heavenly bodies in the sky. However, as mankind learns to invent more powerful tools to understand the cosmos, they learn not just the fact that the sun is the center of the solar system, but also the place of the Earth in the universe. In fact, the view of our place in the universe gradually changed as science and technology cemented over ...

Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald's creative works can be called "parallel", as both writers worked at the same time - "Jazz Age". Many different critics still discuss their works, citing the numerous common characteristics and similarities. Of course, their technique and literary devices differ and are unique. At the same time, some of the characters, concepts, and problems have similar features. For example, one can compare the value of freedom, which penetrates many writings of these brilliant authors.
The theme of the "lost generation" sounds in the early works of E. Hemingway. In the novel The Sun Also ...

Background — Setting and Issues of the Case

In 2008, 49-year-old Brian Schafer was fired from his job as a battalion chief with the Pompano Beach Fire Department in Florida. Chief Harry Small stated that Schafer’s failure to take charge at the scene of two different firers was the reason for the termination. Small also asserted that, when questioned about the incidents, Schafer had lied when he claimed that two other qualified firefighters were already in charge by the time he arrived at the scene.
Supported by his union, the Pompano Beach Professional Fire Fighters Union, Schafer contested his dismissal, noting that in his 27 years ...

Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. It is a term given to a series of diseases in which the cells within human body grow at an abnormal rate, thereby damaging healthy tissues . While normal cells grow and die at a specific rate according to the requirements of human body, the growth of cells is extreme when compared to the death of cells in cancerous patients. Such an abnormal growth in turn leads to tumors, which consist of a huge mass of tissues. However, in patients suffering with cancer related to the blood, there ...

Because Lorraine Hansberry’s play A Raisin in the Sun takes its title from Langston Hughes’ poem about the dangers of deferring dreams due to racism, many people assume that the primary theme of the play is the corrosive effects of racism on the souls of African Americans. Indeed, this play is about a family of African American extraction who runs into racism as they try to move from the inner city projects of Chicago to the suburb of Clyborn Park. However, there are other themes at work in the play as well, such as the ins and outs ...

Equality between females and males cannot be attained using legal channels only. How people, cultures, and societies perceive gender and equality can make an immense difference. The aspect means that individuals must start believing and behaving as if women and men are equal. The attitudes towards equality and females are shaped in various ways. They can arise from personal experiences, social values, or people’s upbringings. Two essential contributors of stereotypes and attitudes are culture and popular media. This paper examines popular media particularly print media to identify how women are represented as well as their presence or absence ...

Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) was an Italian physicist, astronomer, philosopher, engineer and mathematician. He was a critical figure in the scientific revolution of the 17th century. Galileo is perhaps most synonymous with the invention of the modern telescope which has since helped man to discover countless things about the universe.
In regard to astronomy, Galileo is erroneously credited with the discovery of the first telescope. His contribution was carrying out massive improvements on the existing telescopes. In 1609, Galileo learnt about the spyglass which was crudely used in ordinary life to view distant places on the land. Galileo began to ...

English astronomer W. Herschel discovered planetary nebulae in about 1783. Nebulae received the name "planetary" on account of their external similarity with the images of distant planets, light wheels of which are different from the point images of the stars. “A planetary nebula is a beautiful object created during the final stages of the life of a star whose birth mass was between 1 and 8 solar masses” (“Planetary Nebulae”). A planetary nebula is an astronomical object consisting of an ionized gas shell and the central star, a white dwarf.
All planetary nebulae originate from stars that are in ...

This refers to moulds of a particularly microbial genus commonly found in the digestive system, decaying vegetable matter, plant surfaces, and soil. Depending on the route of infection, mucor can result in two types of infection (Ibrahim, Spellberg, Walsh, & Kontoyiannis, 2012). In the case of pulmonary exposure, the victim inhales fungal spores found in the environment which may cause an infection to develop in the sinuses, face, eyes and lungs. During cutaneous exposure, the fungus enters the skin via puncture wounds, cuts, or scrapes.
Mucormycosis, though rare is an infection attributed to the organisms belonging to a group of ...

Ernest Hemingway is one of those artists, who like to expose themselves any way they like. Hemingway often used irony in his writings when depicting characters, which had life stories full of muddle and difficulties. Not many writers can boast of such an innovation brought to literature, but William Dean Howells can. He began as a critic, and later became a novelist – he is considered the champion of literary realism, who depicted each aspect of society without any embellishment. He sought to pass his own impressions to readers, to arouse their imagination and feelings – the same ones as Howells ...

Loraine Hansberry’s iconic play A Raisin in the Sun tells the story of the beleaguered Younger family, who face racism and interpersonal strife in their life on Chicago’s south side. Given the title’s status as a line from a Langston Hughes play, “A Dream Deferred,” A Raisin in the Sun is itself about dreams, and the ways in which they are denied to people of color in America. The dreams of Walter, Benethea and Mama Younger are ‘deferred’ in this way throughout the play, showcasing the unique struggle that black families have to get ahead in ...

Introduction

In the last few centuries, our understanding of universe has grown by leaps and bounds. Before seventeenth century, people generally believed that the Earth is at centre of the universe and all heavenly bodies move around the Earth. Galileo challenged the idea and published his papers in support of Copernican heliocentric theory that the Earth and other planets move around the Sun. Our understanding of universe grew further. We realized that the Sun is not unique and there are hundreds of billions of stars in the galaxy, which are brighter ...

Gentlemen of the jury, this case is about a defendant who made claims that radically contradict the views of the church. He has made a claim that the Earth is not, but rather, it is the sun. Our views on the universe are that the earth is the center of the universe. This view has stood for centuries, and we have always put our full belief in it. The origins this view trace back to Plato and his student Aristotle. Plato explicitly stated that the Earth was a stationary sphere located at the center of the universe. He further ...

The earth’s atmosphere can be defined as a series of progressively arranged “shells” or “spheres” held to its position by the force of gravity. Just to mention, the earth’s atmosphere exerts pressure to the earth’s surface which is referred to as the atmospheric pressure. In addition, the earth’s atmosphere covers a region of about 480 kilo meters around the earth’s surface after which exists the exosphere. Also, the earth’s atmosphere is further divided into heterosphere and homospere. Homospere is the layer 80 kilo meters just above the earth’s surface that has a uniform chemical composition ...

The civilization that took place in Ancient Egypt is widely known for its great achievements in various fields such as statecraft, engineering, architecture, and medicine. The large and marvelous buildings found along the banks of the Nile River still leave people at awe despite their old age. The civilization of the region is partly attributed to the unification of the Egyptians under one ruler in different sections of the Nile Valley. Empire building gave the ancient individuals a sense of stability and organization that allowed them to focus on civilized practices and behaviors. The ancient Egyptians emerged as one ...

Introduction

On most occasions, historians construct world history according to the emergence of civilizations associated with a particular empire. Egypt is one of the rich areas studied by the scholars to understand how ideas and people came together to formulate civilizations and empires. Imagine a region that is sparsely populated but still fertile and watered by several water sources. Individuals settle in the region and proceed to domesticate the animals and plants. The process of domestication is made possible by migration and riverine territories. As the population rises, so do the needs of the people. The requirements introduce political and ...

The majority of energy used in the world consists of fossil fuels, such as oil and coal. However, at the current usage rates, the Earth will run out of fossil fuel, and the population will have an energy shortage. Many researchers are now looking into renewable sources of energy to combat the threat of exhaustion of our current energy sources. Renewable energy sources are ones that use the aspects of the Earth that cannot be consumed, and therefore, we would never be depleted. Waterfalls, wind, and solar power are three renewable sources of energy that people are using today.
