Is Earth the only planet within our solar system or even the universe that yields life to sentient beings? This is a question one must ask when questioning the existence of extraterrestrial life. Taking into account that the universe vaster than I or anyone could possibly comprehend, I am a firm believer in the existence of extraterrestrial lifeExtraterrestrial life is defined as life that may exist and originate outside our planet Earth. Its existence is currently hypothetical, meaning there has yet to be any evidence of extraterrestrial life that has been widely accepted by scientists. This includes the well over a million UFO reports since 1947. None of which can provide a scientifically

The thrust of Edison's work may be seen in the clustering of his patents: 389 for electric light and power, 195 for the phonograph, 150 for the telegraph, 141 for storage batteries, and 34 for the telephone. His life and achievements epitomize the ideal of applied research.He always invented for necessity, with the object of devising something new that he could manufacture. The basic principles he discovered were derived from practical experiments, invariably by chance, thus reversing the orthodox concept of pure research leading to applied research.Edison's role as a machine shop operator and small manufacturer was crucial to his success as an inventor.Unlike other scientists and inventors

The Metamorphosis is said to be one of Kafkas best works of literature. In the Metamorphosis, Kafka directly reflects upon many of the negative aspects of his personal life. The relationship between Gregor and his father is in many ways similar to Franz and his father Herman. The Metamorphosis also shows resemblance to some of Kafka's diary entries that depict him imagining his own death by dozens of elaborated methods.From the moment we meet Gregors father we are shown how short tempered he is. He "came on, hissing like a wild man" when Gregor first exited his room after the metamorphosis. Gregors father chased him with a cane and newspaper making a hissing noise that annoyed Gregor. This

Sexuality and Life In our world today, there is a variety of choices that you can make in life, such as what clothes you want to wear, what school you want to attend, what you want to do in your free time, and the list goes on. The point I am trying to get across, in the category of sexual preference, is a choice that people decide on in ones' life. It could be attraction to a persons nationality, their appearance, personality, or in some cases, attraction to the same sex. All of these examples that I have mentioned are all choices that humans make in life, but I have just named a few.On the sixteenth of April, our class was fortunate to have three guest speakers come in and talk about

Drugs are going around in elementary school
The kids that do the drugs think they are cool
When you watch the news, there is a war
Kids think its ok to steal from the store
What are we teaching the kids of today?
Because the lessons they are learning are not ok
13 is the age most kids begin to smoke
Elementary kids are now doing coke
It is now natural for a husband to cheat
He and his mistress always planning when to meet
Teen death's are a big factor in life
A 10-year-old cut his teacher up with a knife
3/5 of teens already have at least one baby
Where is the boyfriend of this lady?
He's out getting another girl in bed
His parents wish they were dead
60% of Americans have AIDS today
Mothers are getting their babies taken away
None of this stuff is right, at all

In the novel Life of Pi, Yann Martel uses indirect characterization to portray how the harshest elements can bring out the most primal instincts in man, and the unexpected cooperation in the most primal of animals. This is used to symbolize the close similarities in the behavior of man and animal, although seemingly worlds apart at first glace. It is a constant switch between Pi's thoughts and Pi's actions that is needed to extend this characterization to the fullest. Martel does this by showing Pi's religious and peaceful vegetarian personality in the beginning of the novel; one that wouldn't even drink milk because it came from an animal. Yet when the time comes to survive he shows much

Essentially, the primary objective of a philosophical ethic lies in its attempt to explain the justification of rationality within the context of the individualistic internal struggle, as well as how that molds our perception of right and wrong. This perception is then applied to a universal concept of truth that is unique to society. The basic features of the virtue ethics of Aristotle includes six different features one including; the classification of all things, in other words, lets organize the world and say why.

Also, in 1850, he discovered the equivalence between mechanical work and amounts of heat in his well known "paddle-wheel experiment". Not only was James Joule a researcher, but an inventor. Many things he discovered go into new technologies and devices today. Today, he is recognized for electrical welding and the displacement pump. Towards the end of his life, around 1875, he ran out of money doing his experiments, because he paid for most of them. Shortly after that, he became ill and died. In his honor, a unit of energy, the Joule, was named after him.

However, it received many criticisms that he was afraid of, so he withdrew into his Cambridge study to continue his works. Although his works in the field of optics were important, however his work in mathematics and mechanics were much more important.

Do we go to a place of everlasting reward or eternal torment? Are we destined to be reincarnated, coming to life again in a different body in a seemingly endless cycle of living and dying? Will we ever see deceased loved ones again? Is there somewhere you can go to find the answers?In spite of centries of research, science cannot tell us when, where or how life began.

Thoreau believed human life mimicked that of nature. Thoreau used the simile of how a day is like a year: "The night is the winter, the morning and evening are the spring and fall, and the noon is the summer" (200). Therefore, following Thoreau's theory, if nature is 'reborn' every spring and never actually dies, then life should be eternal as well. Thoreau describes spring at the pond as rejuvenation from the 'death' of winter:"At length the sun's rays have attained the right angle and warm winds blow up mist and rain and melt the snowbanks, and the sun, dispersing the mist, smiles on a checkered landscape of russet and white smoking with incense, through which the traveller picks his way

As early as 380 AD, Christian leaders have condemned abortion. Abortion was only allowed when performed in the early stages of pregnancy. Abortion was damned however if the fetus had taken on the shape of human form and considered to have a spirit. In 1869 Pope Pius IX created a distinction between what was called fetus animatus and fetus inanimatus. In 1917 to 1983 Can law was changed to refer to the embryo as the fetus.
