Baltimore‚ Maryland displays quite a few Ancient Islamic art pieces‚ including the silver dish entitled “Plate with a King and Queen” (Figure 1). Constructed in Iran during the 6th or 7th century‚ this dish depicts a wedding between the two people. It is twenty-three centimeters in diameter and is supported at the bottom‚ making it five and one-fifth centimeters in height.

The Impact of Special Events Balancing the impacts of events Special Events have both positive and negative impacts and it is essential the in assessing the impact of and event or of a proposed event that careful consideration is given to whether the positive outcomes sufficiently outweigh the negatives to justify the event. The positive impacts must be developed and maximized so that they both give and appear to give the maximum benefit to all stakeholders and to the wider community positives

Constructive Plate Margin * This is where two plates move apart be it any combination of crust type either sial or sima. At a sima and sima divergence such as the Eurasian Plate and the North American Plate‚ both crusts diverge leaving magma to rise up. This with aid from the cool ocean water solidifies and creates gentle sloping volcanos with basic basaltic lava with low viscosity. The type of volcanoes found at these margins are shield and fissure volcanoes. At this specific plate margin‚ at

the topographical features at divergent and convergent plate margins. Subject: Earth Environments 1: Geomorphology and Soils Course Code: GEOG 1231 Divergent and convergent plate margins are both studied in plate tectonics; which is the study of the plates that makeup the lithosphere‚ their movements and how these movements has influenced changes in the surface’s topography (Strahler‚ 2011‚ 389). The driving force that causes these plate movements is the gradual movement of the semi-molten rock

one another. These pieces slowly assumed their present positions as the continents. PLATE TECTONIC THEORY Plate tectonics is the theory that the outer rigid layer of the earth (the lithosphere) is divided into a couple of dozen "plates" that move around across the earth’s surface relative to each other‚ like slabs of ice on a lake. There are seven or eight major plates and many minor plates. Where plates meet‚ their relative motion determines the type of boundary: convergent‚ divergent‚ or transform

these processes were plate tectonics‚ glaciation‚ and weathering & erosion. One example of plate tectonics in CT is the Connecticut River Valley. The Connecticut River Valley was also formed by glaciation but first came the plate tectonics. When the plates divided it created a rift valley‚ (When the land on two sides rises but the middle land lowers or stays the same.) rift valleys can be formed by earthquakes and some other natural forces as well. This is only one example of plate tectonics. Another

He also contributed to meteorology by establishing to track air circulation using balloon. In 1911‚ he read a paper that listed identical fossils of plants and animals found on opposite side of the Atlantic‚ and he looked for more of such organisms. At his time‚ such cases were explained by postulating land bridges which do not exist now. However‚ Wegener found

of evidence for plate tectonics. It is the patterns on the rocks which presented a problem with the theory. There was thought to be a problem with the description of the movement being “slow and gradual”. According to scientists and geologists the movement would have been performed at a rapid speed. A physicist then predicted where the evidence for this rapid movement could be found and it was later proved that the argument against the theory was correct. The biblical view of plate tectonics conveys
