The school

False Tracks As a child, Tesan Slope was exceptionally smart at solving puzzles similar to that of a murder case. He was inspired by the one and only fictional detective, Sherlock Holmes. However, being inspired by an investigator was unusual for a boy like him in his school. Tesan was bullied on multiple occasions during class, but at recess, that was the worst time of the day for Tesan. During recess, the children would constantly call him names like “Tesan Holmes,” which bothered him a lot

Technology and Information: a slippery slope from knowledge to misinformation Since the invention of the world wide web in 1989 by Tim Berners-Lee, the global spread of information has become increasingly easy, as more resources become available online. The internet can be a useful tool in research and a great way to accumulate valuable information and knowledge, and can be a medium used to spark intelligent and meaningful discussions, but only if used correctly.

The commercial “Questions” advertising Old Spice opens with Isaiah Mustafa also known as the man your man can smell like in nothing but a towel. He starts by addressing the women of the world with a suggestive “hello ladies” and continuing to further question women on what they want in a man.

America’s Slippery Slope In The War On Terrorism Terrorism is a word that strikes fear into many hearts, thus causing immediate panic to many. Although, the word terrorism is doesn't have a definite meaning. People often give their own opinion on terrorism. President Obama said, according to an article by Laura Beth Nielsen “What Is terrorism?”, source Al Jazeera, “Anytime bombs are used to target civilians, it is an act of terrorism.”. While so many people get caught up in who president Obama is

Is Slope Determination a valid method to calculate the density of a metal? Slope determination is a valid way to calculate density because the slope of the data and the actual slope were close in value. When looking at the slope of the graph with the points, they were all relatively close. Three of the five point were even on the slope line. The formula of (y2-y1/x2-x1) allowed the finding of the slope of the line graphed and it also allowed the comparison to the actual slope of silver. This allowed

America, abortion is an age old argument and most Americans have sided with being either Pro-Choice or Pro-Life.

The Snow and the Slope A few winters ago, some friends invited my family and me to go snow skiing at Paoli Peaks, Indiana. I did not know how to snow ski, and I leaped at the thought of trying this new sport. On the first morning we entered the pro shop to rent all the gear and make decisions about whether or not to take lessons or go it alone. We decided to be adventurous and go it alone—no lessons. Kent and Celeste, the friends who invited us, knew how to ski and snowboard. He assured us that

Slope class (visual interpretation) (fig-1) shows that according to our model for the area less than or equal to 5° is flat, so the majority of areas falls within less than 5° areas. It means that only some areas fall within greater than 5°. The statistical information (fig-2) of slope class shows that the min. slope is 0°, max is 31.36° and the mean is < 4°. Therefore, generally the majority of the slope areas are low. Figure 1: Slope classify area Figure 2: Classification Information Model
