the caged bird trapped by the racism and hatred of others. As the poem continues on Dunbar shows the darkness of racism and how the caged bird can even be bruised and sore. “When his wing is bruised and his bosom sore‚ When he beats his bars and he would be free; It is not a carol of joy or glee.” He beats his wings against the cage which is society holding him in by racism. The only way he would be free if society forgets the differences and establishes a community that accepts adversity. This is

The Mimosa plant‚ which folds its leaves on contact through a phenomenon known as “nastic” motions‚ could result in robots that could maneuver through tight spaces and then change their shape to grab hold of something or airplane wings that can alter their shape similar to the way birds do.

LESSONS FROM GEESE By Milton Olson* 1. As each bird flaps its wings‚ it creates “uplift” for the following bird.

Whenever a goose falls out of formation‚ it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of trying to fly alone

parasites‚ bats come out only at night because they’re dazzled by the sunlight. Probably as a punishment‚ but they never really knew. In today’s time‚ no one would actually believe that. Science has long proven that due to the bats’ wide hairless wings‚ they would dry out if they flew during the daytime. It would also be more convenient for the bats to fly at night since they use sound rather than sight to navigate‚ unlike most of their predators. Noses or mouths are being used to send pulses that

I recently implemented controls for the flight log of the Moose Wings Cooperative Flight Club and I wanted to take the time to explain what these controls are and how they prevent and detect input errors. The first controls that I implemented pertain to the “Member #” attribute. The first control I implemented on this attribute was a field check. The field check prevents a user from inputting a member number that contains non-numeric characters and can detect if any member number values contain

This story points out in particular the stereotype between the French and the English in Quebec. In the story‚ a young‚ English girl lives with her father in a French-Canadian town.
