6 00 Pm Touch The Dragon Book
1,000 wordsI enjoyed Touch the Dragon, and throughout made little connection with Karen's realisation's, observation, and experiences comparing them with my own life of travels.

Fear Of Death University Of Chicago
1,129 words... ay the dead bee, when the narrator encounters another death of an animal. This death of a rat is much more cruel and deliberate than the natural death of the bee. This death can be seen to be representing murder; or any death where a third party deliberately robs someone of their life. The rat had a skewer of some sort thrust through its neck, and was trying to climb a stone wall out of a river, while people threw rocks and laughed at it. It was interesting to notice Shiga's mentioning the d...

Million Years Ago Sea Levels
1,218 wordsLong before there were any people, millions of years ago, dinosaurs ruled the world. This was known as the Mesozoic Era, the "Age of Reptiles. " Three different periods made up the Age of Reptiles, Triassic, Jurassic, and the Cretaceous Period. Out of these three periods, it is my opinion that the Cretaceous was the most magnificent time of the dinosaurs. The divide of the supercontinent Pangaea into separate continents was underway.

Win In A Fair Fight Win In A Fair Godzilla
507 wordsCinematic scholars have argued for decades over which is this biggest, meanest, and coolest monster of all time. Given the choice of Godzilla or Mechagodzilla: most people would choose the radioactive lizard over the space robot, because Godzilla won against Mechagodzilla. What these people fail to realize is that Godzilla had an unfair advantage in that battle. Both titans fought with all their power and when they reached a stalemate, Godzilla enlisted the help of King Seeser the 120 meter dog-...

Polar Bears Body Temperature
1,467 wordsFirst of all we need to understand what ectothermic and endothermic animals are. Animals differ in their abilities to regulate body temperature (thermo regulation).

Somewhat more precise descriptions can be made by using the terms poikilothermic and homoiothermic. The body temperature of poikilotherm is relatively variable, while that of homeotherm's is rel...

Million Years Ago Survival Of The Fittest
723 wordsLike the biblical hero Adam, a single cell let part of it's body become another being, now one of a pair. Like the heroin Eve this duplicate created more of it's species.

One must remember that when speaking of the theory of evolution one is not only referring to humans but to other species of the kingdom Ani...

Blue Tongued Skink Blue Tongued Skinks Lizards
335 wordsThe blue-tongued skink is not dangerous at all, and it becomes tame in captivity. It will learn to take food from your hand, and it will even come to the front of the tank when you approach. The blue-tongued skink inhabits forest, woodland, grassland, and semi-arid areas in Australia, so a substrate of bark, aquarium gravel, newspaper, or indoor-outdoor carpeting will suit it nicely. Because of the skinks large size, a 40 -gallon aquarium (with a screen cover) is recommended. Include several hid...

First Chicken Egg Language
289 wordsWhich came first, Chicken? Or Egg? The answer is that this is the wrong question. The trouble here is the word Firsts. A human life contains many firsts, so the word comes easily to our lips. For example, a creationist could ask how the metamorphosis of a butterfly occurred for the First time. French is called a Romance language because it is descended from Roman, or to be more specific, Classical Latin.
