Electromagnetic Radiation Infrared Radiation
1,377 words
You might remember the heroic role that
newly-invented radar played in the Second World
War. People hailed it then as "Our Miracle Ally."
But even in its earliest years, as it was helping
win the war, radar proved to be more than an
expert enemy locator. Radar technicians, doodling
away in their idle moments, found that they could
focus a radar beam on a marshmallow and toast it.
They also popped popcorn with it. Such was the
beginning of microwave cooking. The very same
energy that warned the B...

Training Program 30 Second
1,628 words
This training program is for Bob, a male eleven
year-old student with cerebral palsy. This
requires him to use a wheelchair most of the time
although he is able to stand and walk for short
distances of approximately 30 feet when there is
something to hang on to for stability. With more
muscular training, that distance could be
increased greatly as the only reason he cannot
continue is fatigue and therefore the risk of
falling or other injury. It should be noted that
an assistant will be needed f...

Animals That Are Targeted Captivity On Fur Killed
1,102 words
"Every year, the fur industry is responsible for
the miserable lives and painful deaths of nearly
40 million animals. Many are suffocated, drowned,
or beaten in the wild; however, others are gassed
or electrocuted to death on fur farms. These
animals endure unspeakable cruelty (fur
statistics). " To kill the animals for the fur to
keep ourselves warm is wrong. There are many
alternative ways to keep us warm. It does not
necessarily mean that we have to wear animal skin
to keep ourselves warm. Th...

Makes The Reader Light And Dark
1,353 words
How can a writer have a character make the reader
feel warm inside when reading about them, or feel
anger and disgust towards the character? A way is
the use of light and dark imagery. Imagery is a
very important aspect of writing used to portray a
situation or character as more real or to display
their personality. Charles Dickens uses imagery in
his book Oliver Twist to display his characters as
good, light or bad, dark. This type of imagery
makes the reader feel more comfortable when
reading ...

Global Warming A Deadly Threat For Human Life
1,510 words
Global warming is one of the major environmental
issues facing the world today. Global warming
refers to an average increase in the Earth's
temperature, which in turn causes changes in
climate. An increase in the temperature of the
Earths surface may lead to changes in rainfall
patterns, a rise in sea level, and a wide range of
impacts on plants, wildlife, and humans. One cause
for Global Warming is called the Greenhouse
Effect. The Greenhouse Effect results from a four
step process. First, sunl...

Smile Crept Isabel Looked Andy
1,455 words
Isabel leaned her forehead down on the windowpane
and sighed deeply. The icy glass seared her
burning flesh and sent a rattling shiver down her
spine that reverberated to her fingertips. She
peered into the room almost longingly. The first
thing that caught her eye was the crackling fire
dancing in the old, brick fireplace. The light
from the fire flickered on the walls, illuminating
and casting shadows all at once on the black and
white photographs that hung all around the room.
The pictures we...

Lack Of Communication Third Stanza

Parents often have the desire to give to their
children no matter how much pain it brings to
themselves. In Robert Hayden's poem Those Winter
Sundays, the father does whatever is necessary to
make his family comfortable. In the early morning
he awakens to a cold house and rises to prepare a
fire that will warm the house for the rest of the
family. As the son grows older and matures, he
realizes that he should have praised his father
for the many sacrifices he has made in the past.

Surface Waters Deep Water
646 words
Cold water discovered in the subtropical Atlantic
was brought there by a current which had
originated in the polar region; temperature
measurements in the real ocean and computer models
show there is a southward outflow of cold deep
water from the Arctic throughout the Atlantic.
This cold water is replaced by warm surface
waters, which gradually give off their heat to the
atmosphere as they flow northward towards Europe.
This acts as a massive heating system for all the
land downwind. The heat r...

Chose Venice Warm Inviting Life
413 words
Life to Gustave von Aschenbach meant more than
simply living; rather, an entirely differently
definition is used. To him, life was abstaining
from art; but to take up art is to deny life. Thus
the artist becomes the individual, and life that
which he envies. All too late to realize this,
Aschenbach, in his final years, finally seeks life
outside his works. Unfortunately, without the
rhythm and dutiful nature his art brought him, he
became lost. To re-identify himself, he chose
Venice to vacation...

Thermo Regulating Indoor Cabinets Plants

It is hard to believe that some plants produce as
much heat for their weight as birds do, which are
the greatest heat producers of all. It is even
harder to believe that some are able to thermo
regulate, which means that they actually alter
their heat production to keep their temperature
constant in fluctuating air temperatures. This is
similar to what mammals do. The article I am

and how they do it. There are only three plants
