African Americans Affirmative Action

4. THE JUSTIFICATIONS FOR AFFIRMATIVE ACTION: THE
CONTINUING NEED TO COMBAT DISCRIMINATION AND
PROMOTE INCLUSION Affirmative action was
established as part of society's efforts to
address continuing problems of discrimination; the
empirical evidence presented in the preceding
chapter indicates that it has had some positive
impact on remedying the effects of discrimination.
Whether such discrimination lingers today is a
central element of an analysis of affirmative
action. The conclusion is clear...

Build A Fire Knowledge And Experience

It is human nature to think wisely and act
foolishly Anatole France Nature is full of hidden
menaces. It is always dangerous to underestimate
the significance of its power. Nature can give
people a lot of pleasure, but also many troubles.
If people do not respect its laws or do not have
special knowledge and experience they can find
themselves in a danger. People should know that
very often their carelessness and self-assurance
could lead to terrible consequences and even to
death. A bright exam...

In talking about global warming, we need to learn
what causes the greenhouse effect. Rays from the
sun are taken up and absorbed by water vapor that
is natural in the atmosphere. The United States
emits the largest manmade greenhouse gases in the
world. As Americans we must realize the
responsibility to reduce the emissions. (Gore,
Albert) Water Vapor is eighty percent of
greenhouse warming. The last twenty percent
results from other gases that are in very little
amounts. A huge absorber of the ...

As we enter a new millennium we are also making
vast technological improvements. In the field of
medicine in particular, there is cause for great
optimism. There has never been more power to

is something even bigger approaching, cryonics.
Many people think of cryonics as some futuristic,
science fiction process that would only be
possible in the movies. However the idea of
cryonics isn t really that unreal. There are many

Any Desert Biome DESERT BIOME Any barren region
that supports very little life may be called a
desert. The cold expanses of Antarctica, extreme
northern Asia, and Greenland are therefore true,
but cold, deserts. Most commonly, however, the
term desert is used for regions that are barren
because they are arid, or dry. Arid deserts
receive little precipitation and are characterized
by specialized plants that tolerate drought
conditions and salty soils, and by distinctive
land features. Most desert...

Rate Of Reaction Bunsen Burner
2,301 words
For this investigation I am going to investigate
the effect of the concentration of an enzyme, in
this case Amylase, on the time taken for the
enzyme to fully breakdown the substrate, which in
this case is starch. The reason why these two
enzymes have to be used is because each enzyme is
designed specifically to break down only one
substrate as each enzyme is made of a protein that
causes it to be a specific shape, in this case the
enzyme Amylase can only break down starch to
dextrin. I am going...

The Longest Day Few of Gods miracles cause
protests in the scientific community like the
account of Joshua's long day when God made the sun
and moon to stand still. But science and modern
technology have done more to verify this
phenomenal biblical fact than they have to refute
it. Common sense would say it is impossible for
such a major disruption to occur and not totally
destroy the precise, perfect balance in the solar
system. But given a God, who created the heavens
and the earth, who establ...

Reptiles Enjoyed Warm Arctic (Global Warming) An
article written by ABC News writer Kenneth Chang
discusses the change in climate of the arctic from
ninety million years ago. Seven hundred miles from
the North Pole, lies an island called Axel
Heiberg, a barren land that scientists have dug up
fossil bones of a cold-blooded reptile known as a
champsosaur. How does this happen in an arctic,
freezing land? How does a reptile that needs the
warmth of the sun to survive, live in a frigid
climate? Wel...

Speed Of Light Degrees Celsius

The Properties of Light Applied to Fibre Optics
One of the basic properties of light is that it
travels in straight lines and can have it? s
direction changed. This is the property which is
applied to achieve the purpose of Fibre Optics
which is to carry light from one place to another.
The way this is done can be explained by the
principle of refraction. This is the principle
which governs the behaviour of light as it passes
from one transparent substance to another. It
states; if a ray of ligh...

Liquid Nitrogen Degrees F

Since the beginning of time people have been
trying new ideas for keeping things like food
cold. Up until the early 20 th century ice was the
best method for cooling perishable items, button
we figured out a more efficient and affective way
of keeping items cold. It was called the
refrigerator. Soon after the introduction of the
refrigerator we developed something called
cryogenic freeing, which is freezing with very low
temperatures. Cryogenic freezing is the study

Times Per Minute Body Temperature Falls Hibernation
1,829 words
Hibernation: Definition Hibernation is an
inactive, sleep like state that animals must go
and at least one bird enter during the winter.
Animals that hibernate shelter themselves from
harsh winter and reduce their need for food. Their
body temperatures are considerably lower, as well
as their heartbeat and breathing. The true
hibernator spends most of the winter in a state
close to death; in fact the animal may appear to
be dead. The body temperature is close to zero
degrees; the respiration is ...

Big Bang Theory Force Of Gravity
1,630 words
Not so much a theory of the universe as a simple
picture of the planet we call home, the flat-earth
model proposed that Earth? s surface was level.
Although everyday experience makes this seem a
reasonable assumption, direct observation of
nature shows the real world isn? t that simple.
For instance, when a sailing ship heads into port,
the first part that becomes visible is the crow?
s-nest, followed by the sails, and then the bow of
the ship. If the Earth were flat, the entire ship
would come ...

Time Of Death Crime Scene
3,316 words
Investigative Techniques to Determine Time of
Death One of the first steps involved in a
homicide investigation is the determination of the
time of death. While knowing the time of death is
not crucial in each and every homicide case, it
can be of significant importance in some. Except
for a bullet passing through a victims head and
striking a clock in the same room, determining
time of death is not an exact science. However,
there are a number of different indicators, most
of which are evaluate...

Thermo Regulating Indoor Cabinets Plants
598 words
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
reviewing tells about few a plants that do this,
and how they do it. There are only three plants
which have yet been...
