In this selection I will be explain what Linear perspective is, where it originated and how it affected artists. Linear perspective is basically a system of creating an illusion that is on a flat surface with the use of depth. All lines in a painting or drawing using this system cover a single vanishing point on the horizon line. The term perspective refers to the attempt to depict an image as it is viewed by the eye. What is linear perspective and where did it come from? The three components

innovations, the backscatter X-ray system, designed to speed up and improve accuracy in security checks. The backscatter X-ray systems are weaker than ones that people may get at the doctor, only scanning the slightly past the surface of the skin. Backscatters are used for full body scanners at airports. The scanners are used to provide security personnel

Mark Twain and Charles Dudley named the late nineteenth century as the “Gilded Age”. What Mark meant by Gilded Age is it is a shiny gold type surface on the top, but if you study and try to look inside it is full of corruption, scandals and controlled by wealthy influential people. As mentioned in the book on pg. 641 that Supreme Court justice John Marshall Harlan in the late 1880s spoke of a “deep feeling of unease,” a widespread fear that the country “was in real danger of another kind of slavery

lively color lying beneath the surface. The potter makes yet another examination of the pot to be sure that he has erased any blemish or imperfection before gently placing it into the kiln. The kiln fires the pot allowing the pot’s colors to come through

Through the decades’ people are seeing the effects on this planet that have been caused by climate change. But people are unaware that these weather patterns are abnormal, and need to be fixed before it is too late. There are major droughts, and record breaking high temperatures in places like California and in the Middle East while there are floods and hurricanes in Houston and Florida. The world seems like it is falling apart slowly, but some even wonder if there is enough evidence to prove that

regarding the relationship between different forms of knowledge. He completely reverses the common assumption that our minds are ever changing, and written records remain cut in stone. Altering this structure

The key principle behind radiocarbon-14 dating is plants and animals exchange carbon with their surroundings and thus contain the same ratio of carbon-12 to carbon-14 once an organism dies it no longer exchanges carbon with its surroundings. The carbon-14 will slowly decay at a known rate decreasing the ratio of carbon-12 to carbon-14. Since the decay rate and original ratio of carbon-12 to carbon-14 is known we can determine how old a sample is by the amount of carbon-14 remaining. There are two

changed in substantive ways in recent years that are far removed from rote memory drills and traditional dusty chalkboards. As one mathematics educator emphasizes, "Chalkboards have come a long way, haven't they? In the past, the standard writing surface in the mathematics

melting of ice caps. Global warming is real and can be reduced as well as affected by humans, but it is not a topic we need to prioritize. The evidence behind this discovery is quite breathtaking. Since the 19th century, the surface temperatures on planet earth have increased a full two degrees. This change has been proven to be largely driven by increase in carbon monoxide and other human-made emissions into the atmosphere. Along with the rising global temperatures, another vital sign of global warming

trials that evaluated the role that occlusion had on the progression of periodontal disease in humans, was unethical. To avoid unethical situations, patient records from a private practice facility were collected and studied to see if there was a connection between occlusal discrepancies and the progression of periodontal disease. The records that were studied were from patients that had periodontal evaluations as well as occlusal assessments. All of the patients studied had periodontal disease but
