History: The history of zirconium all started with a stone that was initially used on the Jerusalem wall. The jacinth stone was the same mineral referred to by the Persians as zargun, meaning "gold-like" in Persian. 1 Jons Jacob Berzelius was the second chemist in history attempting to isolate zirconium and he was unable to obtain its pure form. Jons Jacob Berzelius experimented with impure zirconium by heating potassium hexafluorozirconate with a potassium metal enclosed in an iron tube. After

Maverick Wagner Evolution 2/20/15 Evolution of the Carcharodon carcharias (Great White Shark) Did you know that sharks appeared in the fossil record about 450 million years ago (Natural History Museum, N.D.)? Since we know that sharks have existed for 450 million years we know that they have had to survive many mass extinctions. In these mass extinctions many of the predators that preyed on sharks were killed off. These mass extinctions that the sharks were able to survive gave them

However, under the $2 a day poverty line, only China and Vietnam have a population of less than 20 percent living below the poverty line, and the rest have beyond the 20 percent limits. The most extreme of them all is Lao PDR with over 60 percent living under $2 a day, and Cambodia and Philippines are about the same with just over 40 percent of the population (http://povertydata.worldbank.org/poverty/region/EAP). In stark contrast with East Asia & Pacific, the Sub-Saharan Africa has an overwhelmingly

“They have employed existing means of production differently, more appropriately, more adventurously. They have “carried out new combinations”. They are entrepreneurs” – Joseph Schumpeter (Lumsdaine and Binks, 2007). Entrepreneurship is a procedure through which individuals identify opportunities (problems that need to be solved or unmet needs) in the market place, allocate resources, initiate change by being innovative and creative and create value through solutions.

Reading Material: Realms of the Earth Astro-physicists and scientists believe that there could be quite a few planets in the Universe similar to our planet Earth. There is also a probable chance that some form of life prevails and sustains in one of such planet. However, so far as we presently know, the Earth is the only planet which supports life which makes it a very unique planet. It is therefore imperative (very important and necessary) for us to understand the spheres of the Earth as the spheres

Andrews, Block 3AC, 2014 Earth Science Project Paul V. Moore High School Abstract As the level of carbon emissions in the atmosphere continues to skyrocket, carbon dioxide forms a “wall” around the atmosphere, from which solar energy is unable to escape. Carbon storage/capture and carbon sequestration can theoretically prevent solar rays from becoming trapped, ensuring Earth stays at a stable temperature. Carbon storage in the oceans is a possible route to take, but with serious repercussions. It
