It was during summers last year. I had just completed my first year in college (wasn’t sure at that time as the result was still pending) and had come home for my vacations. Now if you are an engineering student like me, you would know exactly how we spend our vacations. Yes, exactly what you just told to yourself. We do nothing. As much as we swear to make our vacations productive, we always end up wasting it away with an ocean of regrets flowing through our minds in the end. But last year, I decided
The book of C.G Jung “The Undiscovered Self” was written during the cold war concerning communism. He saw during this time the trend toward collectivism as the utmost threat to the individual self. He expresses grief over the adoption of mass mindedness, and encourages its psychic depreciation. Witnessing the physical and psychological destruction of war, Jung provides the reader his analytic interpretation of the incomparable loss of self in the intrusion of secular religion and social collectivism
Undiscovered Genius of the Mississippi Delta (Fig. 3) shares numerous characteristics with Jim Crow, most notably the almost palpable southern scenery. The context and regionalism of the Deep South pervades in this painting similarly to that of Jim Crow, in that there are various textual markers of this regional context that are quickly noticeable. For instance, we see MARK TWAIN scrawled three times in the upper left corner, and COTTON ORIGIN OF PA—the scrap is purposely cut‐off: what word
Diabetes Type 1, or juvenile diabetes, takes place when the immune system begins to harm beta cells. This fails to allow the pancreas to give our body an adequate supply of insulin, a hormone that serves our body as a significant source for energy and glucose. According to the American Diabetes Association (ADA), diabetes type 1 was set apart as another type of illness from diabetes type 2 in 1959. The ADA explained how this disease has been then referred to as insulin-dependent because there were
Talent Not Left Undiscovered Everyone has a natural strength or talent for something, but some never find out what it is. Luckily, Ansel Adams wasn’t one of those people. A natural photographer, Adams is most known for his breathtaking landscapes, both in black and white and in color, and his great impact on the preservation and conservation of nature in the United States. Born in San Francisco, California, Adams‘s first real experience with photography took place in 1916 in Yosemite National Park
Leonard Nimoy: Life Before, During and After Mr. Spock Leonard Nimoy has been one of the most memorable, and predominant, actors of the 1966 original Star Trek series where he was known for playing Mr. Spock. However, there was so much more to Nimoy, both as an actor and a person, than him just playing the intelligent alien on a science fiction television show. Leonard Nimoy has been an actor, singer, photographer, poet, director, and, in more ways than one, a teacher. Leonard Nimoy has been a significant
America got its first look of a program that would later become legendary on September 8, 1966 at 8:30 PM on NBC. America was never the same after Star Trek made its debut that night. The series did not receive the recognition it deserved until it was canceled after only three years and later returning in syndication. However, Star Trek was never an ordinary science fiction program to begin with. Comparison to other programs in this genre is difficult because Star Trek is certainly not an unconventional
Star Wars and Star Trek are both a part of the science fiction genre and are about space exploration. They both take place in the far reaches of the galaxies, on unique planets with imaginative and distinct species. In both series the planets are united in some way, Star Trek has The United Federation of Planets and Star Wars has the Galactic Empire. They both have a ship that they are famous for, Star Wars has the Millennium Falcon and the Death Star while Star Trek has the USS Enterprise. Each
Why spend valuable resources and time on space exploration when we can find valuable resources from the undiscovered land and oceans. According to oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/exploration.html, ¨The US have only explored 5% of the oceans so why spend time and money on space when the US have 95% more of the oceans to still explore.¨ If there is only 5% of the
apparent when elements were classified to their properties. Mendeleev’s adjustment of elements was the one and only due to his idea of leaving blank spaces for elements he believed were undiscovered in 1869. The purpose of the Mendeleev Lab of 1869 is to use knowledge of the periodic table in order to identify the undiscovered elements. Ultimately the whole idea is to observe, and draw conclusions to identify the elements. For instance, observing properties, samples, and trends will help us learn more
