Excerpt from King Lear - anthology.

Find out their enemies now. Tremble, thou wretchThat hast within thee undivulgéd crimesUnwhipped of justice. Hide thee, thou bloody hand,Thou perjured, and thou simular of virtueThat art incestuous. Caitiff, to pieces shake,That under covert and convenient seemingHas practised on man’s life. Close pent-up guilts,Rive your concealing continents, and cryThese dreadful summoners grace. I am a manMore sinned against than sinning. KENT. Alack, bare-headed?Gracious my lord, hard by here is a hovel;Som...

To this my mother returned, “Certainly, my dear Jane,” and said no more. I felt apprehensive that I was personally interested in this dialogue, and sought Mr. Murdstone's eye as it lighted on mine. “Now, David,” he said—and I saw that cast again, as he said it—”you must be far more careful to-day than usual.” He gave the cane another poise, and anotherswitch; and having finished his preparation of it, laid it down beside him, with an expressive look, and took up his book.

disabled are sometimes more stronger, with more skills than normal people or even able-bodied athletes. In order to achieve their goals, disabled people have to be courageous, mentally strong, hard-work, self-confident and very motived . What makes a hero of a disabled person is that he can overcome his fears, his obstacles and go to the end of him. And for us the spectators, we have trouble for them, but we know that they are capable and have great skills, we respect them as much as other athle...

Regardless of the method used to attain a supercritical assembly, the chain reaction proceeds for about a millionth of a second, liberating vast amounts of heat energy.The extremely fast release of a very large amount of energy in a relatively small volume causes the temperature to rise to tens of millions of degrees. The resultingrapid expansion and vaporization of the bomb material causes a powerful explosion. VI PRODUCTION OF FISSILE MATERIAL Much experimentation was necessary to make the p...

Excerpt from Our Mutual Friend - anthology.

The Podsnaps lived in a shady angle adjoining Portman Square. They were a kind of people certain to dwell in the shade, wherever they dwelt. Miss Podsnap's lifehad been, from her first appearance on this planet, altogether of a shady order; for, Mr Podsnap's young person was likely to get little good out of association withother young persons, and had therefore been restricted to companionship with not very congenial older persons, and with massive furniture. Miss Podsnap's earlyviews of life be...

A nuclear fission reaction releases 10 million times as much energy as is released in a typical chemical reaction. See Nuclear Chemistry.

For instance, Mohammed Ali, heavyweight champion of the world, teaches the importance of the determination, the courage and the will through his fight.

But there are also features that are perceived only by people with a special sensitivity - balance or unity,for example. These latter people are the ones who have taste.

The economy will then expand because more money is being pumped into it. However, deficit spending also can harm theeconomy. When unemployment is low, a deficit may result in rising prices, or inflation. The additional government spending creates more competition for scarce workersand resources and thi...

Hush, now, gossips; for the lock is turning in the prison-door, and here comes Mistress Prynne herself.” The door of the jail being flung open from within, there appeared, in the first place, like a black shadow emerging into the sunshine, the grim and grisly presence ofthe town-beadle, with a sword by his side and his staff...

By the late 19th century, the music-publishing business was centralized in New York City,particularly in an area of lower Manhattan called Tin Pan Alley. “After the Ball” (1892) by Charles K.

Composers were hired to rapidly produce popular songs by the dozens, and the techniques ofFost...

two electrically charged plates (positively charged top plate and negatively charged bottom plate). By measuring the difference in how fast these electron-laden oildrops fell when the metal plates were charged and uncharged, Millikan was able to calculate the total charge on each oil drop. Because each measurement was a wholenumber multiple of -1.60 × 10 -19 coulombs, Millikan concluded this was the charge carried by a single electron. Using Thomson’s electron charge-to-mass ratio, Millikan then...

Earthquake.

III CAUSES Most earthquakes are caused by the sudden slip along geologic faults. The faults slip because of movement of the Earth’s tectonic plates. This concept is called theelastic rebound theory. The rocky tectonic plates move very slowly, floating on top of a weaker rocky layer. As the plates collide with each other or slide past eachother, pressure builds up within the rocky crust. Earthquakes occur when pressure within the crust increases slowly over hundreds of years and finally exceeds...

Finally, census agencies often conduct an extensive marketing campaign before Census Day to remind the general population about theimportance of responding t...

A wide-ranging dialogue with various philosophers and theologians makes Biel's work valuable as an encyclopedic overview of the diversity in Western thought at the end of the Middle Ages.

His Canonis misse expositio (1488) is a remarkable example of the symbiosis between late medieval theology and spirituality. The pragmatic tendency of Biel's thought...

It was clear that I should have chosen sciences , like my brother and sister did . Do our personalities differ? Probably, to a certain extent they do, but not essentially. If being different means having different tastes in music or ways to spend free time, then we are different, since we have entirely opposite views on music, films and pastimes. For...

True wit is nature to advantage drest; What oft was thought, but ne'er so well exprest. The same animal which hath the honour to have some part of his flesh eaten at the table of a duke, may perhaps be degraded in another part, and some of his limbs gibbeted, as it were, in the vilest stall in town. Where, then, lies the difference between the food of the nobleman and the porter, if both are at dinner on the same ox or calf, but in the seasoning, the dressing, the garnishing, and the setting for...
