In the reading‚ Singer talks about how animals should be treated equally as human beings when it comes to certain aspects‚ but that they should not be treated equally in every aspect of the word. in example‚ he states that human beings have the capability to understand about politics and about voting‚ but that animals do not know anything about voting and should not be counted as equal in that aspect‚ which would be called; equal rights. Animals should be counted as equal as human in terms that animals

History and the Importance of Calculus Calculus can be summed up as "the study of mathematically defined change"5‚ or the study of infinity and the infinitesimal. The basic concepts of it include: limits‚ derivatives‚ differentiation and integrals. The word "calculus" means "rock"; the reason behind the naming of it is that rocks were used to used to carry out arithmetic. This branch of mathematics is able to be rooted all the way back to around 450 B.C.‚ when Zeno of Elea discovered infinite numbers

“The Street Singer” A 1940 survey revealed that 1.5 million married women had been abandoned by their husbands during The Great Depression in the 1930s.(“America in the Great War”) Most of the Americans affected during these tragic times did not deserve the negative consequences that they were up against. Alcoholism was very common during these times‚ but was no excuse. In “The Street Singer”‚ a story in Will Eisner’s A Contract with God‚ Eddie becomes a victim of The Great Depression trying to

HIPPARCHUS (c 190 – c120 BC) Hipparchus was a Greek astronomer‚ mathematician and geographer. Surprisingly little is known about his early life. He was most certainly born in Nicaea‚ Bithynia‚ (which is now known as Iznik in Turkey)‚ around 190 BC. Most of what we do about him comes from the books of other scholars who came after him‚ such as Ptolemy and Strabo. It seems likely that Hipparchus studied in Alexandria but spent his later life in Rhodes. Strabo‚ another Greek geographer writing about
