But this method was not useful due to the conditions of weather. Dispersants were also sprayed; with the help of booms and skimmers, mechanical cleanup was done. For the delicate areas, special cleanup techniques were approved. After more than two decades, when the Gulf of Mexico encountered an oil spill, the weapons available remain the same (Houston Chronicle, 2013). ...

The Bill of Rights serves as an integral part of democracy that the United States (US) has long espoused and developed. Although the Bill of Rights did not draw immediate support from most of the Framers of the Constitution, it eventually gained ground in the form of the first 10 amendments submitted to Congress during its first session. Whereas states have duly ratified the Bill of Rights, the Fourteenth Amendment loosened its applicability through selective incorporation. Such provides for flexibility in applying the Bill of Rights to state jurisdiction, although it does not mean to say that non-applying states ...

The debate between Nature and Nurture within psychology is a great concern to a large extent, particularly in regards to the extent to which selected aspects of behavior are a product of either acquired (learned characteristics) or inherited (genetic).

To start with, it is coherent to first differentiate the two terms; Nurture is a term that refers to all environmental influences after conception which in this case could be an experience, while Nature basically is that which is generic or ...

Artic Exploration and the Future of the Arctic

The response to the question seeking the rationale for Isaac Israel Hayes setting off for the Open Polar Sea was to determine the farthest or northern most portion of the Earth and therefore establish claim for having been able to navigate the Arctic seas to the farthest point possible.

Vincent Van Gogh is one of the most fascinating figures in art and painting; the Impressionist genius lived a short, difficult life plagued by mental illness and inspirational torment.

In The Mulberry Tree, the painting depicts the titular tree resting in an abstractly-painted field. Rolling hills surround the tree, which ...

It was in a nice afternoon that I had sat in a restaurant with a colleague after work. He is a man who is usually conservative and I could not predict what was up for discussion. However, being the two of us in a shade, I believed this day we would share a lot with the man.

Following the conservative nature of the friend, I was mindful of what he was about to share with me. It was not a guarantee that he had something in particular that he wanted us to share since I still doubted how he ...

Analysis of line

Horizontal lines dominate the painting; for example, the artist draws ground, raft, and the sea using these shapes. These lines mean that there is a sense of calmness and comfort in the picture. The lines on the sea and the raft show that these factors are calm and comfortable; the water is still because there are no waves, and this makes the raft stand calmly in the sea. The shape of the ground is horizontal to mean that the place is a plateau. A plateau is a flat land where there are no highlands; they are common near ...

This paper will investigate whether or not artificial artificial affect obesity. Everything that is sweeten with sugar can now be sweetened with an artificial sweetener; and for pennies morewe can have all the pleasures of sweet with half the calories; and so we slip onto ignorant bliss unaware that we might be adding calories instead of taking off calories,

As Americans we have a phobia of hard work, so rather than reading the label on food we look for the word “diet.” Recent studies have shown that we might be putting on more weight with fewer calories from sugar. ...

Currently, coal-fired power plants account for more than 80% of carbon dioxide emissions in the electric power industry of the United States and 33% of all the carbon dioxide emissions in the United States. Consequently, reducing carbon dioxide emissions that come from the coal plants is the focus of most proposals that intend to cut on the greenhouse gas emission. The options to do this include capturing and sequestering carbon dioxide that emitted by the coal power plants, replacing the coal power plants with the low or zero carbon dioxide sources of power like the nuclear and wind energy.

1) Both Carol and Ruether require changes of Christian behaviours toward the environment. Which has the strongest arguments? Why?

Ruether states that the Christianity proclaims that human beings, men in chief, are the embodiment of Jesus or God and hence follows the eco-feministic view of the issue. Nature is only a creation by god that was meant for usage by humans. Moreover, in the ancient times, it was never imagined that humans would ever have more power than the nature itself. Nature was deemed to be the ever powerful and domineering source with no interference from humans. So in ...

The question “why countries that do not have that much natural resources to boast of often appear more progressive and financially stable than countries that are staggeringly abundant in natural resources?” has been common among citizens of both resource-rich and non-resource-rich countries for a very long time. It is actually logical to think that a country rich in natural resources, especially the point-source and non-renewable ones such as oil, diamonds, and other ores, would outperform those that are less blessed because they already have an edge to begin with. However, according to Sachs & Warner (2001), the opposite happens. Sachs and Warner stated that while natural resources-rich countries may have undeniably larger export income potential than those less fortunate with natural resources, the resource curse thesis prevents that from happening. ...

A natural disaster occurs as the effect of natural hazard. The UN office for co-ordination of humanitarian affairs, defines natural disaster as the “consequences of events triggered by natural hazards that overwhelm local response capacity and seriously affect the social and economic development of a region.”.

Hume and Bergeson were philosophical scientists who are remembered for their contributions on humanity nature. Bergerson’s philosophy advocated for the fact that a person has a free will, which is conceived within their hearts.

In the early 1800s, Neoclassical writing was par for the course; works were typically very restrained, conservative, and focused on structure more than anything else. However, as the 19th century rolled along, more and more authors (including Washington Irving and

James Fenimore Cooper) found themselves writing stories of passion, full of experimentation and discovery. In these works, notions of established language and literary structure were challenged, as the Romantics ceased believing in the established systems of literature and created wholly new works that were free from restraint. While the works of Smith demonstrate the observational, dry and formal writing ...

Set in the fictional world of Middle Earth, J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring is a seemingly well-woven tale about the relationships emerging from the race of men and the realm of mythical creatures such as elves, dwarves, wizards and etc. Its ingenuity comes from the striking resemblance of the values and practices of Middle Earth creatures to that of modern day beings, touching on the delicate issues of morality, the ability to distinguish good from bad, and human nature.

In the story, even with divergent traditions and cultures, we see that mythical ...

I chose to visit a park not far away from the city but in a forested area next to an artificial river. I specifically chose a small water fall and sat just next close to it and fully concentrated on my surroundings. After about ten minutes of silence and full concentration, my senses of smell and hearing were very much stimulated. I could for instance perceive the smell of river water not at all like the tap water, but a strange freshness that I had not expected. I initially thought water was the same everywhere and that it was ...

Question one: static, flexible and activity based budgeting

A flexible budget incorporates elements of change in the level of activities of the firm. The budget allows for its application even in the events the level of activity deviates substantially from the initial expected level of activity. On the other hand, the static budget is geared toward one level of activity. As such, the budget does not find application in scenarios where the activities deviate substantially from the expected level of activity. Activity based budgeting, on the other hand, employs the process of budgeting through the authorization of the activities ...

Part I:

I believe that, despite the seemingly mercurial and boundary-less morality of Peter Pan, there are instances in which he shows himself to have a moral code. Even though he seems less restricted than many, and he is seen by Wendy and the others to be the stereotypical naughty boy, who never wants to grow up and always gets in trouble, he acts according to a code of ethics. He is dedicated to the protection of Wendy and the Lost Boys, and seems to be very kind to those for whom he feels responsible. He saves Tiger Lily from Captain ...
