    Such a social atmosphere of extravagance also reflected in scholar-officials’ daily practices of tea consumption and water drinking. Water delivery was widely accepted and practiced by scholar-official tea connoisseurs in the late-Ming era. Tian Yiheng has explained the way in which drinkers should deliver the spring water from the Mount Hui in the Zhu quan xiao pin, and he suggested that drinkers should send honest servants to fulfill this job so that they would not bring bad water from any places nearby. Another active practitioner of water delivery was Li Rihua (1565-1635), a scholar-official from Jiaxing, which was a prefecture considered as a hinge between Suzhou and Hangzhou along the Grand Canal. As soon as Li received his jinshi degree in the year of 1592, he became a friend of the Xiang family, which was the most influential and wealthiest family in town, based upon their common obsessions with the collection of paintings. The distance between Jiaxing and the Mount Hui was around 300 li by water, which usually took the travelers three or four days to arrive at the other…

    The French Revolution was time of "liberty, equality, and fraternity." For the women of France, however, these ideologies were extremely ambiguous. Among many other limitations, women were allowed education only in the home, they could not sit in on juries, and marriage and divorce laws were extremely unfair. Legally and socially, women were inferior to men. The Revolution gave women the opportunity to evolve from subjects into participating citizens.…

    Greed is one of the most dangerous things in the world. It almost always leads to ill faith such as death. One such case was the legend of Hawaiian chief Hala’ea. In his small fishing town, the local fishermen would go out to catch fish using the tedious and arduous process. Although, the chief was extremely greedy, and so he would order the fishermen to give him all the fish for his own benefit. The fishermen knew his greed would one day get to him, and so one morning, they paddled out earlier than usual and caught much more than usual. So, at the end of the day, Hala’ea asked for the fish, the fishermen poured all the fish onto his boat. Although due to his greed, Hala’ea did not notice his boat sinking. Thus, the boat sunk and he died. This story is extremely similar to Kino’s, because the Chiefs greed and cupidity got to him and took his life. Because Coyotito was so important to Kino, it was almost as if he died himself, and so due to the greed, ego, and ignorance, Kino is the sole reason for Coyotito’s death.…

    Spinal Cord- The spinal cord is a long, thin, tubular bundle of nervous tissue and support cells that extends from the brain (the medulla oblongata specifically). The brain and spinal cord together make up the central nervous system (CNS). The spinal cord begins at the occipital bone and extends down to the space between the first and second lumbar vertebrae; it does not extend the entire length of the vertebral column. It is around 45 cm (18 in) in men and around 43 cm (17 in) long in women. Also, the spinal cord has a varying width, ranging from 1/2 inch thick in the cervical and lumbar regions to 1/4 inch thick in the thoracic area. The enclosing bony vertebral column protects the relatively shorter spinal cord. The spinal cord functions primarily in the transmission of neural signals between the brain and the rest of the body but also contains neural circuits that can independently control numerous reflexes and central pattern generators. The spinal cord has three major functions: as a conduit for motor information, which travels down the spinal cord, as a conduit for sensory information in the reverse direction, and finally as a center for coordinating certain reflexes.…
