philosophers, explorers, and premonition ists have
made many credible theories about the lost
continent which have historical documentation to
make them believable. IV. Atlantis and the Earths
Shifting Crust Do you believe in the lost
continent of Atlantis? Or do you believe that it
is merely a fairy tale for a misrepresentation in
history? Many of these glitches in history have
been exploited as absurd accounts of a lost
continent once destroyed....

Chain Of Events One Month
1,253 words
Upon my first reading of Jorge Luis Borges Death
and the Compass I found myself reacting to the
chain of events not unlike the bland but efficient
Inspector Treviranus. The Hotel du Nord with its
hateful whiteness, numbered divisibility, and
general appearance of a bordello seemed a natural
place for a crime of greed and betrayal to have
gone sour on a luckless criminal. The lure of
priceless sapphires and mistaken destination was
more than enough to recreate the crime that had
taken place. Insp...

For this assignment we are asked mainly to answer
the questions given to use over the reading
material, as a measure of accounting for each

Greater Good One Man

good and evil, though it also raises questions of
what is truly good. It blurs the line between good

good. In this story Billy is faced with a wide
range of undeserved punishments, but shows good

Robbing American Taxpayers Through Big Business
1,469 words
For most Americans the term welfare is associated
with any number of negative images: laziness,
illegitimacy, family breakup, irresponsibility,
and wasted tax dollars. We hear "welfare" and our
minds conjure up a young unwed mother of two or
three infants, huddled in front of a TV set in a
public housing tenement and living at taxpayer
expense on monthly Aid to Families with Dependent
Children (AFDC) checks and food stamps. We react
negatively because too often these checks
subsidize bad behavio...

United States Government Cuban Government
499 words
The U. S. withdrawal of arms played a critical
role in the victory of the 26 th of July movement.
This effect was not just a result of the Cuban
army having insufficient weapons for combat,
although it was true that as the Cuban Minister of
Public Works plainly stated, "the troops cannot be
armed with toothpicks. They need guns" (Smith
817). The United States also, during the American
kidnappings, urged other countries such as Canada
and Great Britain to deny Cuba arms, so that
weaponry could be...

Camera Obscura Human Psychology
1,276 words
How do representations of space affect our
relationship to a place? To answer this question,
we should perhaps ask ourselves an equally
important question: how can we probe nature to
learn about it without changing it. By analyzing
this question using six main representational
themes cartographic, political, Cartesian
perspectivalism, optical, transcendental, and
biological we will answer the original question. I
believe that there are no representations of space
that would not in some way affec...

infectious disease caused by the human
immunodeficiency, AIDS was first recognized in the

Coastal Plain Hudson River

New York s Geology The bedrock of the earth is
made up of rock bodies that vary in size, shape,
orientation, composition, color, and texture.
These rocks makeup the bedrock, which is present
everywhere. If one were to study a map of the
bedrock from a vehicle point of view, they would
find that patterns are made by eroded edges and
surfaces of rock bodies that crop out of the
state. Most rock bodies are originally tubular and
horizontal. Deformations of these rock bodies
occur over many years du...

Production And Consumption Period Of Time

A natural resource is defined as a natural
material found on earth that is useful for humans
in some way. It is often processed of manufactured
in order for it to meet the needs of a society.
Resources then differ spatially, as different
people have different needs and therefore require
different resources, and temporally as a society
grows and advances their needs will change and so
to their resources. Natural resources range from
minerals and metals to people (their labor and
skills). (Kleeman...
