-Redi, Spallanzani, and Pasteur all used similar experiments to prove that living things are not spontaneously generated and through their experiments they were able to support their hypothesis with scientific reasoning. The experiments preformed were considered valid because of the reproducible outcome in each study.…

The domain of prosecutors has been extended to provide greater authority. An example of domain expansion of the prosecutors is improving police-prosecutors relationships. Truthfully, police officers and prosecutors are looked at as the bad guys in the eyes of the public. They are both to serve justice, even though they have different perspectives on the law. For example, the police officers consider a case to be closed when the suspect is arrest, but the prosecutor needs obtain more information and evidence to win the case in court. Prosecutors depend off of the police to obtain a conviction; this all depends on how the police officers investigate and the quality of their arrests. Although both police officers and prosecutors have sought strategies…

Most of the time, these discoveries are made by mistake, but have a great impact on the world. Thomas states, “And then, if it is a lucky day, and a lucky laboratory, somebody makes a mistake: the wrong buffer, something in one of the blanks, a decimal misplaced in reading counts, the warm room off by a degree and a half, a mouse out of his box, or just a misreading of the day’s protocol. Whatever, when the results come in, something is obviously screwed up, and then the action can begin,” (Lines 18-25). The findings of a laboratory cannot become significant unless a mistake is made which makes a laboratory lucky. One example of this is the discovery of x-rays. A physicist named Wilhelm Rontgen was investigating the properties of cathode rays, he was not planning on discovering anything. However, he noticed a flicker on the machine he was using, and to his surprise, he saw a skeletal hand. He could not believe it. Somehow an unknown discharge passed through the air and through his hand. This allowed his bones to cast shadows on the screen he was using. The discovery of the x-ray forever changed the way doctors diagnose many people and has saved many live around the world. If it were not for the accidental discovery of the x-ray by Wilhelm Rontgen or any other accidental discovery, then the way of life, as many people know it, might not have been the same as it is…
Clarissa Harlowe "Clara" Barton was a pioneer nurse who founded the American Red Cross. In addition to being a hospital nurse, she worked as a teacher, patent clerk, and humanitarian. At a time when relatively few women worked outside the home, Barton built a career helping others. She was never married, as she knew the restrictions of a married woman at the time, but had a relationship with John J. Elwell. During the end of the American Civil War, Barton worked at a hospital she made helping the people at the Andersonville prison camp where 13,000 people died.…
Due to the financial crisis there have been many changes made to government programs to reduce costs and help with debt. Many of these cuts are happening statewide, in America’s public schools. The first programs that are being cut are the art programs, and the excuse is that the core classes are more important. The argument is that children need to be more focused on test scores in Math, Science, English and History. It is unfair to single out art classes, there should be a more even spread of budget cuts, not just the sole elimination of the arts. There are parents who are indifferent with the arts and they are unfazed by their removal from elementary public schools. What many of these parents do not recognize is that there are actually benefits of the arts that help with core subjects. Some benefits are strengthening problem solving skills, stimulating critical thinking and helping developmental growth. There is also a duel component that shows that there is a direct correlation between SAT test scores and art programs in schools, as well as higher participation and attendance. It has also been shown that the arts can help boost the economy.…
“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore, send the homeless tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door.” Reference? America has long been the land of freedom and hope to the world, and the American military is what has kept her that way. People have forgotten how important and valuable the military is to the world that we live in. As part of the Budget Control Act of 2011, automatic sequestration calls for $1.2 trillion in lowered federal spending, with 50% coming from defense and 50% coming from non-defense budgets. If Congress cannot reach an agreement, these cuts will reduce the Department of Defense spending by about $55 billion dollars. On September 11, 2001, the United States faced a difficult time in which 3,000 lives were lost due to an attack upon the U.S. by terrorists who hijacked airplanes and crashed them into the Twin Towers in New York City, the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia, and the United States Pennsylvania! That day, 9/11, has become a day in which we remember the lives that were lost and the families who were affected by such a tragedy. We called on our military once again, and they were there to protect our country. I am against automatic sequestration towards the military and military programs for many reasons.…
Reported by the Guardian, the genetically modified monkeys that develop symptoms of autism can help scientists identify brain circuits dealing with common autistic behaviors and test new treatments. The issue on using animals in medical research is controversial, provoking the discussion about animal ethical and legal problems. Animal research has brought great advances in the fields of solving medical problems, curing diseases, and developing vaccines in recent decades. Since it makes significant contribution to the progress of medical research, from my perspective, animals should be used for medical research.…

Moreover, sometimes in experiments in which animals are tested upon, there is not a world-changing discovery that changes the medical field and save thousands of people’s lives. Nevertheless, those experiments do not go to waste. In fact, a lot of information can be taken from the experiments whether a cure is found or not.…
Online, physically, or verbally you can be a victim of being bullied. You don’t have to keep things as they are. The question is how to handle the situation (Do you attack the bully and become the bully yourself? Or do you ignore the bully and pretend all is well?) What you do is speak up and ask for help. I would know, because not only was I a victim, I was also a person who stood by and simply watched it happen.…
