2. I found a relationship between the social theory of Max Weber and the song “Ex-Factor” by Lauryn Hill.

The history of Post colonial Mexico included many successful and influential leaders: Porfirio Diaz‚ Francisco Madero‚ Francisco (Pancho) Villa‚ and Emiliano Zapata. Disparities in classification of the revolution arise from the numerous factions and ideological assumptions advocated for the overthrow of Diaz’s rule‚ hence one can argue that it was a political‚ social‚ or economical revolution. A social revolution advocates a complete transformation of all characteristic aspects of society‚ encompassing

Robots would never have the true feelings as humans because they weren’t born or developed feelings through life experiences as people do. Ex Machina which is a movie about artificial intelligence opened the idea to human vs. non-human. Watching the film and having discussions gave me a better understanding on the topic of human vs. non-human. The movie portrayed a detailed example of human

Buffer Post Lab Calculation 1. We added too much NaOH to our buffer 1 solution. The original pH was 5.32‚ with 10mL of buffer and 10mL of DI water. We added 5mL of NaOH and the pH changed to 12.12. If 5 mL changed the pH by about 7‚ then we predict that about 2 mL of NaOH would change the pH by about 2. This prediction is based on the fact that 2.5mL is half of 5mL‚ and 3.5 is half of 7‚ so adding a little less than 2.5mL would give us a difference of about 2. For the buffer 2 solution‚ the original

Block 4 9/23/10 Post-Fishbowl Reflection I found last class’ fishbowl discussion to be quite helpful‚ besides one improvement I might add. To have looked a layer deeper into the meaning of Meursault’s epiphany near the end of the novel would have helped us all grasp what Camus’ interpretation is trying to emphasize. After his frustrating meeting with the chaplain‚ Meursault comes to an important realization. He ponders what the point of life is‚ and more closely‚ death. I believe that
