When inspirational Sally Ride became the first American woman in space in 1983, Jemison quickly decided to apply for the astronaut program at NASA. However, shortly after her application, the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded- therefore, resulting in NASA taking a break from

The many different jobs & problems of military Most civilians don’t join the military because they do not know want to get shot at or die. But what they don’t know is the military has so many options for everybody and anyone can find a job they would like to do. Most women have wanted to join the military but they don’t like that they cant have combat positions, many people have argued this but don’t actually think it through. There could also be many steps and problems with transferring from a military

Forensic imaging, particularly MRI technology is crucial in determining the cause of death in forensic pathology. There are a few main techniques for forensic imaging, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), post-mortem computed tomography (PMCT), and conventional radiography. The PMCT is generally used for gunshot wounds, detection of gas embolism, trauma cases, and changes in the skeletal system. Some advantages of this technique are that it is fast, easy to handle, good three-dimensional reconstruction

soccer fields was later resolved when Luma was able to find a grassy and descent area that the boys could focus on only soccer and not get distracted by anything else around them. According to chapter 18, page # 144 it states "The boys could hardly believe their eyes when they showed up for their first practices in Milam Park." This page also later states" ...A thick blanket of soft green grass..." This was a new form of field for the team to play on after having to play on such a harsh field at the

First, while McAllister Park has strong brand recognition, it has an age limit of 18 and puts greater attention on the Little League All-Stars teams. Second, while the Miracle League has a large complex and specially designed field, it only has 6 teams as opposed to Lone Star Play Ball’s 14. Also, the organization’s founder was quoted in an article stating the age limit is not enforced but this information is not readily available on the organization’s website. One page on the

1. A) Show that the relation R over bit strings where (x, y) is in R if and only bit strings x and y length 16 that agree on their last 4 bits is an equivalence relation. Define the equivalence classes and the partition induced by R. Answer: A relation R is said to be an equivalence relation if and only if it has all the following three properties: • Reflexive • Symmetric and • Transitive We got to show that the relation R over bit strings where (x, y) is in R if and only bit strings x and y length

Dave Saunders, a young seventeen-year-old plantation worker, attempts to find his self-identity. Dave, living in an impoverished area, is forced to live under the command of a plantation owner, Mr. Hawkins. Thus, this creates this strive to discover something that will resemble his growth and maturity: “One of these days he was going to get a gun and practice shooting, then they couldn’t talk to him as though he were a little boy” (Wright). In order to fulfill this goal, Dave must own a gun. Owning

Many themes can be portrayed in a person’s life. Especially when one’s life is struck by so many strange events. The Glass Castle by Jeanette Wells is a very good example. Jeanette experiences many accounts of survival, betrayal, and loss which go on to influence the rest of her life. Jeanette’s life becomes a rollercoaster and she takes us along for the ride. Survival is one of the most profound themes in The Glass Castle and is immensely influential throughout the entire novel. Jeanette even says

In criticizing the utilitarian behaviorist framework, Murdoch says that moral philosophy should provide not only an ideal of what it means to be good, but also advice on how to move oneself towards that ideal. One way that the ideal of humility can help a person be good is by providing a test for actions. Instead of asking himself the rather difficult question “Is this a good action?” an agent can ask himself “Would a humble person do this?”, and if the answer is “no”, then the action is probably

The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra expresses that any polynomial of degree n will have n roots. Moreover, Descartes’ rule of signs states that the number of real positive and negative roots can be determined through the number of sign changes present within a given polynomial. In order to demonstrate my understanding of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra and Descartes’ rule of signs, I will provide two polynomials and predict the number of complex roots for each. Polynomial 1: f(x)=x^4-6x^2+x^3+3x-4

-What is the domain of an algebraic expression? Domain is a set of values for the variable for which the expression makes sense. You can’t have zero in the denominator. As a result of this, restrictions are needed to list the values for the variables in which the denominator would equal zero. Closed dot on timeline = [ ] brackets. Which means that number is included. Open dot on timeline = ( ) parenthesis. (Infinity always uses parenthesis). Which means that number is not included. Example: 3x2

Diversity is something that I believe is very important in any situation. Without diversity, people would be too similar. Diversity makes people who they are. I am a 14-year-old soccer player who moved to California after living in Massachusetts for 5 years, is have over 50 first cousins all of which are from Massachusetts. Not one other person in the world is the same as me. I think diversity represents the fact that people are snowflakes, not in the sense that people are weak or fragile but that

stand and the dirt on the field. It’s a beautiful day at the softball fields; 75 degrees and sunny! I was on a new team called Iowa Outlaws, and I wanted to show my team that I could help them. We were playing in Ankeny in a 1-day tournament, so we had 3 games total. It was important that we played our best in the first 2 games so we would be able to play in the championship game. My team was lucky and got one of the later games so we played at 11:30 and had to be at the fields at
