religions across the globe. One of the stories we

of Noahs Ark, is a well known segment of the old
testament, and an interesting story of how God
punished the world for how corrupt it had become.
God accomplished this reportedly by flooding the
world, and annihilating all the creatures upon it,
save for Noah and his family and a pair of each
type of creature on the earth. This story,

system, marked by open competition in a free
market, in which the means of production and
distribution are privately or corporately owned
and development is proportionate to increasing
accumulation and reinvestment of profits. However,

The Mirriam-Webster dictionary defines literature
as: writings in prose or verse; especially
writings having excellence of form or expression
and expressing ideas of permanent or universal
interest. This concept of thoughts and ideas on
paper is a good start but does not thoroughly
define literature. Literature takes many forms and
has evolved over time along with humankind.
Therefore to thoroughly define literature one must
discuss the elements of literature, the history of
literature and what ...

Hubble Space Telescope Universe Continues To Expand Energy

The universe begins with a cataclysm that
generates space and time, as well as all the
matter and energy the universe will ever hold. For
an incomprehensibly small fraction of a second,
the universe is an infinitely dense, hot fireball.
The prevailing theory describes a peculiar form of
energy that can suddenly push out the fabric of
space. On a rare occasion, a runaway process
called "Inflation" can cause a vast expansion of
space filled with this energy. The inflationary
expansion is stopped o...

Plant Cells E G

Water has importance inside cells and externally.
This may be because it has interesting chemical
and physical properties; it can be found naturally
in all three of its states. However its molecules
are bonded together by hydrogen bonds, this raises
its melting and boiling points, i. e. its boiling
point would be - 120 C rather than 100 C. Also
because it contains slightly negatively charged
oxygen atoms and slightly positively charged
hydrogen atoms making it polar. Water has been

Hundreds Of Years People Of Color

The Construction of an Institution For hundreds of
years, it has been truth that the races were
biologically different. The differences that
separated society were based on scientifically
based genetic differences that gave reason for the
separation of races. However based on recent
findings, it is known that this is not the case.
In 1974 Richard Lewontin dispelled this myth with
a study he did that proved that there are no
genetic differences between races. In fact he

Black Greeks Stepping Brothers

Part 1: The Genesis It began with singing.
Brothers would gather in the quad and sing. They
eventually graduated to dancing and from there
stepping. You can go to some yards down south and
they call it a Sing instead of a Step-show. The
WHITE FRATERNITIES started the singing part, but
the black fraternities took it to another level.
Much like we did with basketball and football. I
dont think that any one fraternity can lay claim
to stepping, more than likely it evolved. One
