Plutonium Monologue

Not since the 1980's has a recent surge of uranium mining claims occured in the Four Corners region. Energy Fuel Resources Inc. has placed its Canyon Mine on standby and expects to resume shaft sinking operations December of next year, when an official court ruling is made and depending on market conditions.

The United States had been in war for almost four years. Over 416,800 American lives were taken, and four percent of the world's population was killed in World War II. America needed a way to end the war as quickly as possible with the fewest U.S. casualties. A Japanese invasion was considered, but it would put American lives at stake. With the invention of the atomic bomb, President Truman made the most debated decision: the decision to use the most deadly weapon ever invented- the nuclear bomb. It was a very controversial decision. On one hand, the nuclear warheads ended World War II as quick as possible. On the other hand, it created mass destruction and devastated the two cities targeted: Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Some say that the

Why did the Truman Administration decide to drop the atomic bombs on Japan in 1945?

And she said “baby leave the water by the bed for later, i woke up without a single drop”

Boom, Bam Nukes they are exploding all over my mum the nukes are exploding I'm legally autistic but that never has stopped

The Negative Portrayal of Nuclear Devices in Popular Culture The Atomic bomb’s world debut on August 6, 1945, when two nuclear devices exploded over Hiroshima and Nagasaki, made an everlasting impact on the world and changed how global combat conducted itself forever. At the time, the atom bomb’s use, through the eyes of many Americans, was necessary and justified for effectively ending World War II, even at the expense of the hundreds of thousands of lives that it cost. Americans celebrated the bomb for it demonstrating huge scientific achievement and future progress. However, positive attitudes towards the weapon began shift dramatically as other powerful nations, such as Soviet Russia, armed themselves with nuclear weaponry matching power that of the United States.

Through the idea of SCIFI and real-world problems, there have been songs describing the future chaos and our world today, as the band Imagines Dragons with the song Radioactive. In the song Radioactive, the main theme is speaking about is how technology has made our world into a battleground, using nuclear bombs to fight, as the speaker is revealing the condition of being a prisoner. Using technology has made our world into chaos, as humanity uses bombs to fight with the world in corruption and chaos, “I’m waking up to ash and dust” (line 5) by using the idea of what the world will end up “I’m breathing in the chemicals” (line 7). Just as the speaker is telling the world that our society needs to stop the corruption and the hate or else we’ll

On the quiet morning of August 6, 1945, the United States shocked the world by dropping an atomic bomb over the city of Hiroshima, Japan. (www.grolier.com) Hiroshima was a major industrial city with an estimated population of almost 400,000 people. A B-29 bomber was loaded with the Atomic Bomb and left the United States Pacific air base at 2:45 a.m. local time and dropped the bomb at 8:15 a.m.

There are many things that were and are important to me like family,friends and food.Many things on this list have become less important to me I remember being so in love with something unimportant it was almost stupid it was taking over my life till it got taken away from me.This object has hurt me and helped me in different kinds of ways.Staying up late night to get on it and hiding it from my parent so they would not yell at me for being on it I couldn't control myself and it controlled me. I didn't know it was controlling me but it was I was wrapped around its finger its slave you could say it would always taunt me and sometimes when I didn't get enough sleep I could it chanting my name.This object was so addictive it was my kryptonite.

August 6th, 1945, 70,0000 lives were ended in a matter of seconds. The United States had dropped an atomic bomb on the city of Hiroshima. Today many argue whether or not the U.S. should have taken such a drastic measure. Was it entirely necessary that we drop such a devastating weapon? To answer that first we must look at was going on in the world at the time of the conflict. The U.S. had been fighting a massive war since 1941. Moral was most likely low, and resources were at the same level as moral. Still both sides continued to fight and both were determined to win. Obviously the best thing that could have possibly happened would have been to bring the war to a quick end with a minimum of allied casualties. Harry Truman’s decision to

Now with that easy one out the way, time for the real brain busting stuff. At the end out the second movie and beginning of the third, Doc (Christopher Lloyd) gets struck by a bolt of lighting while flying still in the air and gets sent back to 1855 while Marty is on the street and sees this happen and is now stuck again in 1955. Right after that happens Marty gets a letter from Doc stating specific intrusions on where he left the time machine hidden and how to fix it. Shortly after Marty finds out that Doc was killed a week after he wrote the letter. Marty then decides to travel back to 1855 and save Doc. In the process of going back to 1855 he cuts a gas line so now the Delorean has no gas and Doc and Marty spend the rest of the third movie tiring to find a way to get the Delorean up to 88mph to be able to travel back home. Here is where there is three major plot holes.

In today’s day and age many people around the world have become dependent on what seems like useless or needless things such as the internet and television. This is one of the negative effects of science and the technology that comes with it. Some of these technologies seem harmless, like cellphones and computers, but it seems as the years progress people want more and more power, literally and figuratively. The element uranium is a perfect example; this element has the power to do well in generating power for millions of people, and the power to do wrong in nuclear warfare.

The previously accepted nature of war stemmed from the Clausewitzian trinity: war is emotional, an experience wrought with passion, violence, and enmity; uncertainty, chance, and friction pervade the medium of war; however, because war is not an end in itself, and because, as a means, it is subordinate to its political aims, war must be subject to reason (Clausewitz, 89). With the first employment of nuclear weapons, however, strategists and military theorists began to question Clausewitz’s foundational ideas (Winkler, 58). Similarly, Allan Winkler, in agreeing with Bernard Brodie’s thesis, opines that the advent of nuclear weapons fundamentally changed the nature of war. Winkler’s assertion stems from his argument that such a nuclear duel would yield a post-war environment incapable of recovery for any parties involved (62). He further describes Brodie’s realization that “[t]he atomic bomb is not just another and more destructive weapon to be added to an already long list. It is something which threatens to make the rest of the list relatively unimportant.” (62) Ultimately, Winkler abridges Brodie’s assessment in stating that “the United States was caught in the paradox of having to prepare for a war it did not plan to fight.” (63)

One of the foremost growing concerns in the modern globalized world is the increasing rate of nuclear proliferation. Coupled with the burgeoning number of nuclear devices is the threat of a terrorist possibly obtaining a weapon of such magnitude. While one could argue that the rising number of states with nuclear capability is a disturbing prospect, particularly as many pursue such capabilities without the approval of the “traditional” nuclear powers, terrorists in possession of nuclear arms presents the most horrific outlook concerning nuclear proliferation. Terrorist groups, unlike states, are not organized governmental bodies, which complicates any means of formalized diplomacy or negotiation. Furthermore, unlike as compared to a
