Prometheus lent humans the gift of fire, and while the move he made had Zeus fuming, Prometheus never regretted his decision. Prometheus was unlike any of his counterparts on who lived on Mount Olympus; a God that cared about the events of the future, about the world the humans lived in, and about the people who lived on that world. He was disinterested in Godly matters, disinterested in the wonderful things that all the other gods seemed to enjoy. For Prometheus, the other gods were merely ignorant of what was happening to their people, and therefore, he wanted to Continue reading...

Factors that Influence Emotions

Human emotions are variable from time to time depending on various factors. Gender is one of the distinguishing factors that affect human emotions. Women tend to be more emotional than their male counterparts are. This is mainly due to hormonal imbalances and variations that occur during menses. At such times, they tend to be moody and easily irritable. However, in some instances men can be moody depending on other sociological factors. Culture is a crucial factor in determining one’s mood ((Berry, 2004)). This is especially important since it shapes one’s general mood from an early age to Continue reading...

Following the story of the use of ethanol to provide warmth in cold environments, this paper presents research on the effect the consumption of ethanol has on an individual’s body temperature. Firstly, the distribution of heat in the body is done by the blood. Through the vasodilatation and vasoconstriction of blood vessels, the body loses and retains head respectively. Given that ethanol enters the bloodstream directly upon consumption, its effects are almost immediate. Its presence in the blood causes the widening of blood vessels due to its vasodilation effect (Eston & Reily, 2013).
This results in an increase in Continue reading...

Power capacity is the maximum amount of power that an electric line can transmit, and it varies with distance and voltage. The longer the distance, the lower the power capacity of the line due a drop in voltage. For example, a line with a 100-mile length has a maximum capacity of 3.8 GW. In contrast, a line with a 400-mile length has a maximum capacity of 2.0 GW (Amin & Stringer, 2008, p. 400). The higher the voltage, the higher the capacity of the lines since high voltages produce more heat that is likely to cause sagging of the lines. Continue reading...

Introduction

This term paper explores the issue of weather affecting pollution in major cities. In a major city, where there can be a higher proportion of pollution sources in a relatively small geographical area, the effects are likely to be more distinct and concentrated.
Whilst there are several causes of air pollution, it is known that the air quality at any given time can be affected by the prevailing weather conditions. For example, strong winds can rapidly transport pollutants released into the air great distances from the originating source. Conversely, in conditions when there is very light wind or in Continue reading...

There are documents in the city hall of Nizza Monferrato that also mentions about the growing of this variety of grapes in 16th century (Sonkin, n.d.).
Barbera is a dark-skinned grape. The red grape Continue reading...

The rate at which greenhouse gases have accumulated in the last half century is alarming. The accumulation has led to the inevitable rise in the temperature values experienced around the globe. Greenhouse gases have directly increased in proportion to the amount of emissions made by equipment and engines using fossil fuels. This effect is also a direct result of the industrial age that came with a shift towards making use of automated diesel driven machines under supervision of a few operators. It is legitimate to put into consideration that there are numerous effects of global warming that may reduce Continue reading...

The weather conditions between Oshkosh and Wisconsin are similar. This means that they share both latitudes and longitudes. Snow usually comes at a specific time of the year. This is fall. When it comes, the weather becomes cold. However the ground usually behaves differently. Temperatures are the regulators. When temperatures are high in a place, then the weather becomes warmer or hotter. Nevertheless, when the temperatures are low, a place becomes cooler. Therefore, the grounds nature depends on the temperatures. Weather is not directly related to the ground. When there is snow, the temperature normally becomes cooler. On the Continue reading...
