Traffic Stream Characteristics Traffic facilities are broadly separated into two principal categories. * Uninterrupted flow * Interrupted flow The major difference between the uninterrupted and interrupted flow facilities is the impact of time. On uninterrupted facilities‚ the physical facility is available to drivers and vehicles all at a time. On a given interrupted flow facility‚ the movement is periodically barred by “signal systems”. The signal timing‚ therefore‚ limits access to

In “The Fracking Truth‚” Chris Faulkner argues that fracking has almost no consequences. Perhaps the strongest argument that Faulkner gives for this claim relies on three claims that (1) subsurface contamination from fracking is almost impossible‚ (2) low concentrations of any harmful chemicals used in fracking would be negligible and (3) earthquake activity caused by fracking are nearly moderate to small. In this paper‚ I will argue that this argument fails because there are many consequences of

Simmel and W.E.B. Du Bois have had a significant influence on important theories and ideas developed in the Social Sciences. Perhaps two of the most relevant and well-known concepts developed by both of these theorists are the concepts of “double consciousness” and “the stranger”. In this paper I will be analyzing both of these pieces of work to draw upon differences and similarities between the two. The similarities I will be elaborating on are the usage of the paradoxical figure‚ which both Simmel

Kleist and Consciousness A few short years before his death in 1811‚ Henrich Von Kleist finished writing some of his last great works including The Prince of Homburg. Although The Prince of Homburg was not the only play Kleist had written‚ it emphasizes an idea that he carries throughout the play in addition to The Chilean Earthquake‚ and The Puppet Theater‚ two of his short selected writings. The way that Kleist writes is sophisticated‚ eloquent‚ and philosophical. He is able to maneuver his words

Consciousness is a tricky concept‚ both in its definition and its attribution. Here‚ “consciousness” refers to a cognitive process involving self-awareness and wakefulness; this paper will be specifically concerned with self-awareness‚ which seems to be a minimum requirement of conscious experience. I propose that the evolutionary history of consciousness likely began in large-bodied‚ arboreal apes with the development of a bodily self-awareness and sense of personal agency‚ allowing them to successfully

Animal Consciousness In “The Problem of Animal Consciousness: Do Horses Gallop in Their Sleep?” Matt Cartmill argues that concsciousness does not only contribute to humans‚ but to non-humans as well‚ animals. Consciousness has been prescribed as a human experience in spite of all of the evidence that has been showed that animals have consciousness. Philosophers and scientists believe that consciousness has no evolutionary history‚ because they think that humans are the only creatures that have
