Title: Chemical Usage in Agriculture | The Peterson Farm Blog Headings: Chemical Usage in Agriculture Chemical Usage in Agriculture Table of Contents Part 1: What are the different chemicals used in agriculture? Part 2: Why do farmers use pesticides? What are the issues related to using them? In summary: Part 3: How do farmers apply chemicals? Part 4: Are chemicals such as pesticides used in agriculture safe? For our food? For the environment? We come into contact with chemicals all of the time. They are not inherently bad. Toxicity: The dose makes the poison. The most toxic pesticides are no longer used. Agriculture has transitioned to using safer chemicals. Most used today have very low toxicity. Pesticides (like any substance) are not dangerous if consumed at a low enough rate. Just because a pesticide residue is detected in food, does not mean the food is unsafe. If synthetic pesticides were truly causing all the things they have been claimed to cause (cancer, disease, etc.), farmers would be having severe health problems. Eating organic does not necessarily mean you will be exposing yourself to less pesticide residue. Environmental concerns about pesticides are real and should be taken seriously. Eat healthy food, exercise often, and talk to the experts about your food. Content: Reasons for the decline include more effective pesticides, better application technology, genetic engineering (GMOs) and new production methods like cover crops. ( This is further explained in Part 2) Part 2: Why do farmers use pesticides? What are the issues related to using them? Part 2 is answered in another one of my blogs that you can read here: Why do farmers use technology like GMOs and pesticides? ( Benefits) What are the issues?

Title: 27 Insect Population Statistics That Concern Us All Headings: 27 Insect Population Statistics That Concern Us All 27 Insect Population Statistics That Concern Us All The Top 10 Statistics on the Decline in Insect Populations How Many Species of Insects Are There in the World? 1. There are several million species of insects. 2. A third of all insect species are endangered. 3. A study from 2017 shows that 76% of flying insects in Germany had disappeared. 4. Arthropod biomass in the Luquillo rainforest in Puerto Rico has declined between 10 and 60 times. 5. Only 84 species of insects in the US are listed as endangered or threatened. Why Are Insects Dying? 6. America’s agriculture is 48 times more toxic to insects than 25 years ago. 7. A study conducted in Sweden in 2018 revealed that, at the time of the study, there were 62% less nocturnal pollutions due to light pollution. 8. Global warming has killed 98% of insects in Puerto Rico’s Luquillo rainforest. 9. The use of herbicides is the second-greatest cause for the decline in the insect population, as insect population statistics show. Insect Population Decline 10. In 2018, less than 200,000 monarch butterflies were overwintering on the California coast. 11. The population of ladybugs in the US and Canada has declined 14% from 1987 to 2006. 12. More than 20 butterfly and moth species in the US are listed as endangered. 13. The overall number of moths in the UK has declined by 28% since 1968. 14. 36% of the 39 dragonfly species are in decline. Insect Population Growth 15. There are more than 110 trillion mosquitoes in the world. 16. Asian hornets are spreading at the pace of 62 miles a year. FAQ 17. Are insect populations declining? 18. Are the insects dying? Sadly, yes. And at this rate, they could all disappear in just one century. 19. How many insects are dying? 20. What happened to all the insects? 21. Why are bugs dying? 22. How fast are insects dying? 23. What happens if all the insects died? 24. What would happen if the population of insects decreased? 25. Is the world population declining? 26. Why are pollinators dying? 27. What is the current human-to-bug ratio? The Bottom Line Sources Content: One of the most apparent reasons for the decline in insect population is the use of pesticides. The loss of habitat can also endanger the existence of a species. Furthermore, habitat degradation and the decline and disappearance of plants and animals that insects depend on for food and shelter. Moreover, water pollution also has devastating effects on the environment and contributes to the problem of insect extinction. 6. America’s agriculture is 48 times more toxic to insects than 25 years ago. (PLOS One, National Geographic) The agricultural landscape is toxic because of the widespread use of neonicotinoid pesticides, which can remain toxic in the environment for up to 1,000 days. The pesticides are responsible for 92% of increased toxicity. This is because plants absorb these chemicals into all of their tissues — stems, leaves, pollen, nectar, and sap. According to the study on insect population decline that was conducted in 2019, these chemicals are incredibly toxic to pollinators like bees and butterflies, while birds aren’t spared either.

Title: How Long Do Piglets Stay With Their Mothers? | Pet Pig World Headings: How Long Do Piglets Stay With Their Mothers? How Long Do Piglets Stay With Their Mothers? Why piglets need to stay that long Weaning Process Caring for the weaning piglet Challenges during the weaning stage Related questions: How long can a pig’s pregnancy last? How many piglets will a sow produce at a time? How many times can a pig get pregnant every year? Content: If possible, the water they drink should have electrolytes to help keep them hydrated and healthy. Another challenge is that piglets won’t consume feeds that don’t taste or smell like the milk of their mothers. This poses a very difficult challenge because some owners might prefer giving them certain feeds. It’s essential that owners know what feeds are similar in taste and smell so they won’t have a hard time transitioning the piglet. Since piglets need to be placed in pens that are proportional to the number of piglets in one and their sizes, piglets must be able to interact with them properly. Feeding time must be scheduled and be done with all the other piglets around. Failure to give them sufficient interaction, as mentioned earlier, will lead to piglets biting each other due to the induced stress of the lack of interaction. This is one challenge that owners must pay attention to. Related questions: How long can a pig’s pregnancy last?

Title: Causes of Howling at Night in Cats | Pets - The Nest Headings: Causes of Howling at Night in Cats Causes of Howling at Night in Cats Heat Senior Felines Attention Hunger Stress Health References Content: When the entire house is quiet and still at night, your lonely cat may howl just to wake up someone up and get some attention. Instead of thinking of it as a nuisance when you're sleepy, look on the bright side and think of it as endearing -- your pet enjoys your company. Hunger Some cats are on the spoiled side and get used to enjoying meals and treats during the daytime hours. If your cat is howling all night, she may simply be trying to get you to wake up and give her something to eat! Stress Cats are prone to anxiety and stress, especially when they experience major life changes. Some examples of traumatic changes for cats include a new pet in the home, moving away or the loss of a companion. Try to be especially understanding toward your loud kitty if this applies to her -- she's going through a lot! With time and adjustment, the behavior should diminish. Health No matter what your cat's age is, nighttime vocalization could also be an indication that she just isn't feeling well. If you are scratching your head as to why your cat is howling so much, take her to the veterinarian immediately.

Title: Restlessness in Cats | Pets - The Nest Headings: Underlying Health Issues Chocolate Heat Energy 00:02 08:19 GO LIVE Content: Heat For female cats, uncharacteristic restlessness often points to the heat cycle, also known as "estrus." If you have not spayed your queen cat, heat is certainly a possibility. When a female is in heat, she calls out to tomcats in an attempt to inform them that she is indeed ready to mate. You may notice signs such as restlessness, pacing, trying to run away and severe agitation. Get your cat fixed if this is the case -- she will thank you for it later! Pregnancy can be very physically taxing on cats. Energy Restlessness also may mean that your cat just isn't getting enough physical activity. She may have a little pent up energy that she just wants to let out. If this is the case, it has an easy solution. Help your kitty move her body around by encouraging playtime aerobic activities.

If this is the case, it has an easy solution. Help your kitty move her body around by encouraging playtime aerobic activities. Buy her a toy mouse and let her chase it around, for example. Set up a cat tree so she can hone her jumping skills. Also, although cats aren't often associated with learning tricks, they certainly can. Get your feline active by showing her how to sit up. Not only will your cat let off some steam, she will enjoy some quality time with you.

Title: 8 Common Cat Behavior and Health Problems and Solutions Headings: 8 Common Cat Problems and How to Solve Them 8 Common Cat Problems and How to Solve Them Keep the peace between you and your feline friend with these solutions to common cat problems. 8 Common Cat Problems and Their Solutions Content: To help the kitty who doesn't understand that nighttime is for sleeping -- not for playing with your nose -- try these tips. First, make sure your cat has no medical problems. An agitated, active feline could be one that's in pain, so talk to your vet if you think there might be something wrong. If kitty is just rambunctious at night, you can help tire and relax them with a good play session before bedtime. Make sure kitty's environment is enriched so there is plenty to do during the day, making your cat more inclined to sleep at night. You might create a cat enclosure; offer your cat a variety of toys; mount bird or squirrel feeders near a window out which kitty can see; or leave out items for your cat to explore, such as boxes, bags, and packing paper. If your feline friend is the social sort, get them their own kitty companion to pal around with.

You must know exactly what to look for and how to best care for your dog’s teeth and gums to help prevent loose teeth. With the right information in hand, you can ensure your dog’s teeth and gums receive the absolute best care at home and from your veterinarian. Utilize this informative guide to learn about the potential causes, symptoms, treatments and preventative care techniques used for loose teeth in dogs. Causes of Loose Teeth in Dogs Puppies will typically start to lose their 28 baby teeth at four months of age to allow their 42 adult teeth to grow in their place. Losing baby teeth is a normal part of life, but losing adult teeth is often a sign of advanced gum disease. In fact, the American Veterinary Association estimates that 85 percent of dogs over age three exhibit minor to severe gum disease. The development of gum disease at such a young age often leads to serious complications down the road without treatment and ongoing preventative care. Trauma is another reason for loose teeth in dogs. If your dog recently received a harsh blow, such as a collision with another dog, the loose teeth may be related to that incident.

Carnegie was able to construct many steel plants around the United States with the a technology that made the manufacture of steel faster, easier and more productive. Carnegie owned everything he needed in order to become the “King of Steel“. Some of the negative effects of big business in the 19th century was the atmosphere and working conditions of the workers at the time repeatedly change. Technology is another negative effect because the products were not being complete made by an individual. Immigration was another effect. The positive effect was that more money for this country. A positive effect that Carnegie’s business had on society were his donations to build libraries in the United States and in other English speaking countries. Carnegie funded about 3,000 libraries in 47 US states and other countries. In 1901 he gave two million dollars to create the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburg and the following year he donated the same amount to Washington D.

In my opinion Carnegie did a lot positive things for society. He was able to accomplish the American dream, as we know he was an Scotland immigrant. One of the negative things was the Homestead Mill strike because it “broke his reputation as a friend of the workers”. The pros of the big business in the 19th century were the benefits that industrialization gave to the people, like how the life of Americans improve and how their wages climbed. The cons was that everything comes with a price.

It was a time of fierceness and anger, resulting in the deaths of thousands of people living in France at that period of time. The terror followed the trial and execution of King Louis XVI in 1793 and was incited by the conflict between the Girondins and Jacobins. Soon after, King Louis’ wife, Marie Antoinette, was executed in the guillotine- the new form of constitutionalist justice. Many of the people who were executed during this period of time were not aristocrats, but ordinary people who may have only stated a critical thought or judgment going against the revolutionary government. Many believe that once Robespierre became leader of the Committee of Public Safety, he overpowered France and dominated the public, leading to the terror. Some believe that the terror occurred to stop counter-revolutionaries, such as the War in Vendee, and happened because of the factions between the Jacobins and Girondins. The Reign of Terror was the governments reaction’s to counter-revolutionary threats occurring particularly in the Vendee region of France in 1793. Here the public armed themselves in order to attempt to overthrow the Republic and restore the monarchy to the way it was. The counter-revolutionaries in this region were strongly against Robespierre and upset he had launched a movement to de-Christianize the nation and persecute the Church- massacring priests, destructing churches and destroying religious images.

The Jacobins then had firm control of both the National Convention and France as a nation, left to deal with the violence and repression on the streets of France. Robespierre became leader of the Committee of Public Safety in 1793, causing a shift in power from Georges Danton to Maximilien Robespierre, Danton being an implausible public speaker and having a stronger physical presence while Robespierre less passionate about the public in general and their needs. He encouraged violence in France during the political deterioration and the fact that the attempt to set up a workable constitutional monarchy under King Louis XVI‘s reign failed made him passionate about politics. He wished to create a temporary dictatorship in order to save the Republic from falling completely. He believed that it was “One’s duty to punish traitors, to help the needy, respect the weak, defend the oppressed, do good to one’s neighbour and behave justly,” meaning he wanted to punish those who were against the government in any way and act justly- not something that he achieved. He believed that the “Terror is nothing but quick and hard justice,” granting that he wanted the terror to be something which was handled quickly and only for those who acted against their choices in any way. Robespierre was a large influence in the Reign of Terror and wanted the people who acted out to be punished for their actions. Many people believe that he was the reason why the Reign of Terror originally began. Many dispute that the Reign of Terror simply does not exist due to the fact that there was already violence occurring before this supposed period of time.

In fact, Germany lost 13% of its land which contained 6 million Germans. The land Germany had owned was given to countries such as Poland, Denmark, Belgium and Lithuania. Consequently, Germanys population went into poverty and many of them lost their homes creating an overall negative effect. Moreover, the treaty stated that Germany had to disband their air force, limit the army to 100,000 soldiers and cut the navy to 15,000 sailors. Due to the limitation and cuts, many people lost their jobs causing them to go into poverty. The army had gone from employing 3 million people to now 100,000 people resulting in 2. million people becoming unemployed. As there weren’t as many soldiers, this meant Germany was vulnerable and became an easy target. Germany was open for an attack, but it meant Germany would be unable to attack other countries.

The transition in becoming more independent, creating new insights and peer influence are key factors in changing the perspective of an individual. Students are faced with new ideas from their professors, family and fellow peers. Through that acquired knowledge many students decide that they either agree or disagree with the perspectives that they are taught. Allowing the right of ‘Free Speech’ on public college campuses has become an important issue that many public colleges are starting to address. In college students are capable of informing their peers about issues that are important and controversial. It is important that students are able to maintain this right so they can and inform the student body to promote positive change. Free speech should be allowed on public college campuses because it liberates students to actively engage in controversial issues. ‘ Free Speech’ is necessary on college campuses because it allows students to determine their own beliefs and promote positive change.

It is important that people are not limited to expressing their voice publically because people need to see multiple perspectives then just their own. ‘ Free speech’ also provides an opportunity for students to gather together and promote positive change. Allowing a person to publically speak their minds often is seen to be disruptive. Many people do not think about the positive outcomes that ‘Free Speech’ provides. Allowing students to express their opinions often is for the better and creates positive change. It is a proactive way for students to become educated and inform their peers about issues that are happening on campus. This relates to the Pacifica Forum controversy because students were able to express their views using their right of ‘free speech’. A few students were able to educate a majority of students about the Pacifica Forum and were able to force them off of campus. The ASUO president, Emma Kallaway, stated in the Daily Emerald “This may seem like a small victory in the larger fight, but it’s still a tremendous testament to student power that we were able to force this group out of our student union” (1).

By this time the once soft and kind-hearted man, was now replaced by one who had developed a great love of power along with a reputation of intolerance, self-righteousness and cruelty . Robespierre quickly came to a conclusion that the end would justify the means, and that in order to defend the revolution against those who would destroy it, the shedding of blood was justified. Merlin de Thionville who was a member of several French legislative bodies said commented that: “ In those days so rotten had France become that a bloody mountebank without talent or courage, whose name was Robespierre, made every citizen tremble under his tyranny”. The French now lived under fear and oppression of a man who no longer cared for the people of the revolution but rather the revolution itself. Using his great oratory skills he successfully demanded the execution of the king and queen without fair trial or judgement, saying that “Louis must die so that the revolution may live”. In January 1973 Louis XVI was executed, followed by his wife ten months later. By his own words he had become a monster, “A victor who kills his captive enemies is called a barbarian” .

A nation cannot be one when the people do not believe in the ideals of the government. The revolution was merely a civil war which pitted citizens against one another. While many people believed in the revolution, they did not accept the extremist ideas of the Jacobins, and for that thousands of ordinary people were targeted and killed. The September Massacres was a subsequent mass killing of prisoners, after news that the Prussian Army had invaded France. On September 3, 1792, crowds of French citizens stormed into the prisons where they attacked prisoners and refractory clergy, regardless of their status as counter revolutionary.

With the execution of Louis XVI in 1973, this new “regime” still had many problems to overcome including the continuing war that constantly needed men and money. The National Convention (which was created in 1792 as part of a campaign to convert France into a constitutional monarchy) amid high pressures, decided to set in place a centralized government which provided everyone with food, support and direct the war effort, and punish counterrevolutionaries (611). Headed by Maxmilien Robespierre, this new government was based on the principles of virtue, in which the government sought to educate and/or force the citizens to become virtuous. Inspired by enlightenment thinkers Montesquieu and Rousseau, he believed in the importance of a government by terror. Robespierre justified his beliefs by saying stuff like: “ To punish the oppressors of humanity is clemency; to forgive them is barbarity. ”

The land of California was another economic incentive that justified Manifest Destiny and the movement westward. California held economic advantages such as abundant resources including mineral, agricultural, commercial and manufacturing and a good vantage point to trade with countries bordering the Pacific Ocean. In President Polk’s State of the Union Address in 1847, he justified the right of the United States to acquire California by saying that the Mexican government would not be able to properly control the land over the far distance in between. Furthermore, if the United States would give up control over it, a European power would attempt to claim it by either force or purchase. He also mentioned the Monroe Doctrine which states that “no foreign power shall with our consent be permitted to plant or establish any new colony or dominion on any part of the North American continent must be maintained.” In other words, it would go against our destiny to allow another country to settle land that is in our entitlement. Manifest Destiny was the idea that the United States was entitled to all of the North American land. Pro-expansionists used this idea to take over land either by purchase or by war. The idea of entitlement fueled westward expansion and there were laws created to achieve control over all of the land.

The war originated in the Cuban struggle for independence from Spain in February 1895. The spreading influence of the Cuban conflict on America prompted the United States to go to war with Spain (History.com Editors, 2010). Although the “mysterious” explosion of the battleship U.S.S. Maine, in Havana Harbor, was seen as the cause of the Spanish-American War, it was the United States’ increasing concern over political unrest in Cuba that prompted America to declare war on Spain. Throughout the nineteenth century, the Cubans were struggling to rebel under Spain’s oppressive rule. The Cuban conflict was injurious to U.S. investments on the island, so much so, that it almost ceased U.S. trade with Cuba. Meanwhile, on the insurgent side, the war mainly waged against property and led to the ultimate decimation of sugarcane and sugar mills. Furthermore, under the Spanish commander, Capt. Gen. Valeriano Weyler y Nicolau, Cubans were forcefully herded into “reconcentration areas,” which were often located in and around large cities.

The multitudes of institutions that assist in the socialization of an individual vary from person to person, but are all beneficial in creating a sense of gender. According to Michael Messner, there are two types of institutions, the gendered and the gendering. The gendered institution is described by Messner as “an institution constructed by gender relations. As such, its structures and values (rules, formal organizations, sex composition, etc. ) reflect dominant conceptions of masculinity and femininity” (p. 133). The gendering institution can be described by Messner as an institution that constructs the current gender order and genders people’s bodies and minds, it creates the masculine and feminine identities. These institutions are both detrimental to the construction of gender and personal identity; for me the involvement in CYO sports at a young age and the household in which I grew up (all girls) allowed me the freedom to develop an identity of my own outside the traditional masculine/feminine identity.

Such rash economic development and fast growing of urban population stipulated emergence of many serious problems in urban communities not known earlier. Poverty of the city-dwellers, overcrowding of housing, transportation and environmental pollution were among the most critical problems (Light, 1983). Rising crime rates, increasing pauperism, and spiraling juvenile delinquency signaled a moral dislocation in cities undergoing commercial and industrial transformation. Swarms of foreign immigrants challenged their capacity to accommodate and assimilate newcomers, as did the influx of white and black native migrants from the countryside and small towns. Everywhere the orderly patterns of existence appeared interrupted; the cities seemed to be overwhelmed by the rush of social change (Ward, 1972, p. 164). Cities lacking institutionalized systems of orderly government (police departments, fire departments, centralized governmental bureaucracies) had to forge new tools to hammer out an urban discipline (Schultz, 1972, p. 308).

Many turning points have occurred during history. Two examples of turning points in history are the bubonic plague in Europe and northern Africa where many died of a fatal disease, and Humanism that occurred in Europe where people valued the individual needs of the person over traditional authority. Both of these events were times of great change and effected the world on a large scale. The Black Death, also known as the Black Plague or the Bubonic Plague killed one third of the population of Europe during its reign in the 13th and 14th centuries.

Gun rights and gun control are always hot items during any political discussion, whether it is between peers or politicians. One of the many great advantages of being an American is the ability to choose for one's own self what to believe in. Another advantage, in my opinion, is the right of the people to keep and bear arms. Laws should not restrict gun rights because first, it would infringe the second amendment, second, guns are a part of our culture, and finally, if guns were outlawed, citizens of the U. S. would become vulnerable. The most prevalent argument for gun rights is the second amendment to the Constitution of the United States. The second amendment is broken into two clauses; the justification clause and the rights clause. The justification clause is, “A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state. ” And the rights clause is, “the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”

While hunting for meat is no longer a necessity, wild game is still much better for you and healthier than meat bought in a grocery store. Hunting also requires a person to take a class in Hunter Safety before they can legally hunt, where firearm safety and shooting skills are taught. Hunting as a family is a bonding experience where time is spent outside together instead of indoors sitting down watching television or playing video games. There is a saying that goes “Take your kids hunting and you won’t have to hunt for your kids” - kids who are involved with their families more and spend time doing things they enjoy together are much less likely to get in trouble.

Cite this page Content: Secondly, the Germans hated clause 231 because accepting it gave the Allies the moral right to punish Germany – it validated all the harsh terms of the Treaty. The Germans also disliked the reparations, which were to be paid in instalments until 1984. They did not accept that Germany had caused all the damage. They felt that the huge sum was just designed to destroy their economy and starve their children. Most of all, they hated reparations because they too had rebuilding work to do. Germany’s economy was ruined, but, instead of being able to pump investment into German industry, the country had to send abroad huge sums of money that German industry was not yet strong enough to earn. Finally, the territorial terms of the Treaty of Versailles also made the Germans angry. Germany lost 10% of its land. The Saar was a valuable coalfield, and West Prussia and Upper Silesia were rich farming areas, so their loss further weakened Germany’s economy. The loss of the Polish Corridor separated East Prussia from Germany, and further damaged the German economy.

The loss of the Polish Corridor separated East Prussia from Germany, and further damaged the German economy. Germany lost 16% of its coalfields and half its iron and steel industry. The loss of all Germany’s colonies was seen as the Allies building empires. The loss of Malmedy to Belgium, Schleswig to Denmark, Memel to Lithuania, Alsace-Lorraine to France was also a national humiliation. The Treaty of Versailles also stopped Germany joining with Austria. This seemed unfair to the Germans, because everywhere else in Europe, the Treaties of 1919–20 gave peoples self-determination, but they divided Germany, and put 12.

The purpose for allowing guns should stand on its’ own, whether or not people will submit to gun restrictions or gun control is another matter. On the other hand, here are all the reasons against gun ownership. Guns are capable of killing or injuring a person or property. This is basically the argument that " guns kill people " when in reality " people kill people ". People don’t need a gun to kill people, since there are many other dangerous objects in the world that are not banned and cannot be banned. I do not see a logical reason for banning guns just because they can be dangerous. Guns make killing or injuring a person or property very easy. Whether firearms make it very easy for accidental or intentional gun murders, gun injuries, gun suicides, or gun damages does not matter. A tool that makes it easier to do something is still just a tool.

As a result, this basically comes down to whether the political and personal security of gun ownership is greater than or less than the public safety of gun control. I think with this detailed analysis of all the reasons for and against gun ownership, I have proved that there are much more convincing reasons to allow gun ownership than to ban firearms. In other words, the usefulness of firearms outweighs their dangers. by Phil for Humanity on 12/09/2007

Title: Understanding Personal Agency | Philosophical Therapist Headings: Understanding Personal Agency Understanding Personal Agency Hyper-agency Hypo-agency Inverted agency Conclusion Share this: Content: This all depends on what is happening inside of that person’s head, not what you’re saying or doing to them. I can give two women a massage: my girlfriend and a stranger on the train. While I am doing the exact same action to both women, they will react differently. But here’s the thing, while most of the time my girlfriend wants a massage, and most women don’t want to be touched by a stranger, sometimes my girlfriend won’t want a massage and sometimes a stranger on a train will respond positively to a massage. People are not predictable like a physical object is. That which has emotions is impossible to understand by the laws of physics alone. It may be tempting to tell people whatever you think might alter their thoughts, feelings, and actions to suit your interests, particularly if you believe you have agency over that person, but this is an error in observation. A more careful observation is that the other person chose to respond to your words in the way you were hoping they would, but just because they chose to respond positively to you once or even a few times, does not mean they will continue to do so. Indeed, once one starts full blown lying to people in an effort to get the desired responses from them, it is only a matter of time before they point blank refuse to co-operate with you at all and it turns into a vicious power struggle.

Determinism versus Free Will You might think these are opposites; however, philosophers recognize four possible points of view regarding the two—both true, both false, and one or the other. Compatibilism, the theory that they can both be true at the same time, is popular, since most people want to believe in both. Then again, the theory that they are both false is also popular; because that is what current science seems to imply: if quantum theory is correct, determinism is probably false if neuroscience is correct, free will is probably false As far as we know, our minds are entirely part of our brains, which simply obey the laws of physics. So, how could the activity of our brains not be determined by physical law? Quantum theory doesn’t help, because even if quantum events in our brain are un-determined, they’re random; random is just as much the opposite of free will as deterministic!

Controversies about Determinism Does quantum mechanics necessarily mean that the universe is non-deterministic? The laws of quantum mechanics (QM), the most thoroughly proven theory of all time, deny that specific events are predictable or determined at the quantum scale (smaller than an atom). According to QM, only the probabilities of events are determined, while specific events are random. Whether an atom will decay at a certain time, or where on a photographic plate a photon will hit, can never be predicted, no matter how much you know about previous events, except statistically.

Whether an atom will decay at a certain time, or where on a photographic plate a photon will hit, can never be predicted, no matter how much you know about previous events, except statistically. You can say approximately how many photons out of 100 will hit a certain spot, but not which ones. And the uncertainty is not just a matter of human knowledge; the photons do not follow specific paths, and have no specific locations, until they are observed, and there is no way to predict exactly where they will be. Most philosophers do not worry much about quantum theory because they have been told that it doesn’t matter at the human scale; although quantum events may be non-deterministic, their probabilities average out to give precisely the predictions of Newtonian physics for events much larger than atoms.

For one thing, quantum theory operates at every scale, even if its randomness averages out at large scales, and for another thing, it has now been shown that quantum effects are amplified up to the biological scale by chaos; some biological processes—such as the formation of proteins–even rely on quantum indetermninacy! Chaos theory shows that quantum effects can matter at the scale of neurons in the brain, which means that quantum indeterminism could be relevant to the question of whether our choices are determined or not. However, this does not make quantum indeterminacy a source of free will because randomness is no more free will than determinism, is it?!

Since this makes it about five times longer than the large intestine, you might wonder why it is called “small.” In fact, its name derives from its relatively smaller diameter of only about 2.54 cm (1 in), compared with 7.62 cm (3 in) for the large intestine. As we’ll see shortly, in addition to its length, the folds and projections of the lining of the small intestine work to give it an enormous surface area, which is approximately 200 m 2, more than 100 times the surface area of your skin. This large surface area is necessary for complex processes of digestion and absorption that occur within it. Structure The coiled tube of the small intestine is subdivided into three regions. From proximal (at the stomach) to distal, these are the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum ( [link] ). The shortest region is the 25.4-cm (10-in) duodenum, which begins at the pyloric sphincter. Just past the pyloric sphincter, it bends posteriorly behind the peritoneum, becoming retroperitoneal, and then makes a C-shaped curve around the head of the pancreas before ascending anteriorly again to return to the peritoneal cavity and join the jejunum. The duodenum can therefore be subdivided into four segments:

The duodenum can therefore be subdivided into four segments: the superior, descending, horizontal, and ascending duodenum. Of particular interest is the hepatopancreatic ampulla (ampulla of Vater). Located in the duodenal wall, the ampulla marks the transition from the anterior portion of the alimentary canal to the mid-region, and is where the bile duct (through which bile passes from the liver) and the main pancreatic duct (through which pancreatic juice passes from the pancreas) join. This ampulla opens into the duodenum at a tiny volcano-shaped structure called the major duodenal papilla. The hepatopancreatic sphincter (sphincter of Oddi) regulates the flow of both bile and pancreatic juice from the ampulla into the duodenum.

Jejunum means “empty” in Latin and supposedly was so named by the ancient Greeks who noticed it was always empty at death. No clear demarcation exists between the jejunum and the final segment of the small intestine, the ileum. The ileum is the longest part of the small intestine, measuring about 1.8 meters (6 feet) in length.

Title: Headings: Content: ELECTIONS 1 USA ELECTIONS in Brief 2American voters going to the polls often face many choices. 1 Free and fair electionsare the keystone of any democracy. They are essential for the peaceful transfer of power. When voters elect representatives, they elect the leaders who will shape the future of their society. This is why elections empower ordinary citizens: They allow them to influence the future policies of their government, and thus, their own future. The United States has been a representative democracy since the ratification of the U.S. Constitution in 1788—although the electoral tradition began during the colonial era and had its roots in British history. This book discusses the nature of the modern American electoral process and how it works at the federal, state, and local levels. The process, complicated and sometimes confusing, has evolved to ensure universal suffrage to all men and women who are U.S. citizens 18 years of age or older. INTRODUCTION Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, left, and vice presidential nominee Joe Biden wave to fellow Democrats at the party’s 2008 national convention in Denver, Colorado.

The term “culture of power” is introduced to determine the correct teaching method. The article continues with the breakdown of the five different facets of power we experience in the classroom setting. The first one states an issue of power is played out in the classroom. This is followed by the concept that there are codes or rules for participating in the “culture of power.” We then learn the exact rules of the culture of power reflect the rules of the culture which holds the power. Delpit continues that when aware of the rules of the culture, obtaining power becomes easier. The last aspect we learn is those with the power most often are not aware of it or even willing to accept such a balance exists. Rather, those who do not hold the power are the most aware of the situation. Delpit furthered her argument with different illustrations to show differences in communication styles of teachers of color when speaking to their students.

Explore further Content: What are the chances of life on another planet? May 9, 2016 What are the chances of life on another planet? by Tufts University In an infinite universe, most scientists agree, the odds of life existing on a planet besides Earth are pretty high. It is unlikely, however, that familiar life forms will be found on any planet within our solar system. Life as we know it—everything from single-celled organisms to human beings—consists largely of liquid water. So a planet that harbors life can't be too cold or water will freeze, nor can it be too hot or all the water will evaporate. Planets closer to the sun than Earth are too hot, and those farther away are too cold. The surface of Venus, for example, is hot enough to melt lead, and would vaporize any living thing, while the surface of Mars is frozen solid. Life as we know it here on Earth also requires a magnetic field and an atmosphere, both of which protect it from the lethal radiation our parent star, the sun, emits. Earth's magnetic field—generated by its rotating iron core—deflects the solar wind, a continuous stream of high-speed, high-energy particles coming out of the sun. (

Without the magnetic field there, the solar wind might destroy all life on Earth. As for Earth's atmosphere, it protects life because the water, carbon dioxide and other gases in it absorb solar radiation in its harmful ultraviolet-light form. The parent stars of other solar systems would emit radiation as well, and the planets orbiting them would need the same kind of protection. Of course, life on Earth also alters the chemical composition of the atmosphere—Earth's atmosphere lacked gaseous oxygen until plants started growing here some million years ago.

Launched in 1967, the Soviet Union's Venera 4 was the first probe known to land on and send back data from another planet. The mission revealed that Venus' famously soupy atmosphere is made up almost entirely of carbon dioxide with a surface temperature hot enough to melt lead, making it a very unlikely place to harbor life. Today, NASA's Mars rover, Opportunity, has been sending back reams of data about the red planet since it landed there 12 years ago.

It's been an invaluable research tool, but has found no direct evidence that life ever existed on Mars, and has revealed that the planet's atmosphere is too thin to protect it from the sun's radiation. The discovery of thousands of planets orbiting nearby stars has nevertheless greatly increased speculation that there may be some kind of life on a planet outside our solar system. In the past 20 years, we have confirmed the discovery of almost 2,000 planets, called exoplanets, beyond our solar system. Four thousand other exoplanet candidates await confirmation.

The Kepler mission —a space observatory launched by NASA in 1997 to search our galaxy for just these kinds of Earth-like planets—has found one candidate that meets both requirements, Kepler-452b.

What role does financial literacy play in Black entrepreneurship? How do disparities in Black business ownership affect Black families and communities, especially in areas that remain segregated today? What are some creative ways that Black entrepreneurs have managed to overcome these barriers? What were your study's findings surrounding the small business loan process? What else can major commercial and retail banking institutions do to better support Black entrepreneurs and businesses? Explore further Content: Further, when examining the net worth of Black business owners in comparison to the net worth of white business owners, it becomes clear that entrepreneurship represents a pathway to narrowing the racial wealth gap. While whites have 13 times the wealth of African Americans, when comparing the median wealth of Black and white business owners, the median wealth gap decreases substantially. "What these figures illustrate is that Black business ownership, more so than even education," she says, "is a tangible pathway for African Americans to achieve economic parity and close the racial wealth gap." We caught up with Howard to explore the history of Black entrepreneurship in the U.S., barriers to growth, the impact on African American communities and families, and procedural and financial investments that commercial and retail banks can employ to help shore up the gap. Statistically, how does Black entrepreneurship in the U.S. stack up when compared to other racial/ethnic groups? Although African American business ownership remains on the rise and is continually increasing, growth has been incremental. In 2014, African Americans owned 2% of U.S.-based companies. In 2017, this figure inched to 3.5%. Despite this increase, Black-owned businesses continue to lag behind that of whites and other minorities in terms of market share. In 2017, white-owned businesses accounted for 81% of all U.S. companies, with Asian- and Hispanic-owned firms comprising 9.7% and 5.8% of the market share, respectively.

As it decays, Pu-238 will power the rover and its instruments across the planet. Credit: NASA After its long journey to Mars beginning this summer, NASA's Perseverance rover will be powered across the planet's surface in part by plutonium produced at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory. "Mars 2020 will be the first NASA mission that uses ORNL-produced plutonium-238," said Alan Icenhour, associate laboratory director for nuclear science and engineering at ORNL. " This accomplishment represents countless hours of work by dedicated ORNL staff, and it's rewarding to see this work come to fruition. Helping NASA in its mission to Mars is a significant moment in the history of the lab." Like other rovers on deep-space missions, Perseverance's traveling power on Mars comes from thermoelectric generators that create electricity from heat generated from the decay of plutonium-238 in the form of oxide ceramic pellets. Pu-238 produces heat as it decays, and the rover's multi-mission radioisotope thermoelectric generator converts that heat into electricity to charge the lithium-ion batteries that move the rover and power the instruments it will use on the surface of the Red Planet. Pu-238 is ideal for deep-space travel because of its long half-life of nearly 88 years, but it has been in short supply.

But U.S. production of Pu-238 ended more than 30 years ago. Pu-238, in pellet form, produces heat that the rover's multi-mission radioisotope thermoelectric generator converts to electricity. Its long half-life makes it ideal for deep-space travel. Credit:

It's not an easy process, and ORNL, DOE's Office of Nuclear Energy and NASA have invested time, money, research and bright minds into improving it. ORNL receives neptunium-237 feedstock from Idaho National Laboratory, which stores the nation's inventory. Once at ORNL, the neptunium oxide is mixed with aluminum and pressed into pellets. Next, the pellets are put into tubes and irradiated in ORNL's High Flux Isotope Reactor, which causes the neptunium to transmute into Pu-238. The pellets are moved to shielded hot cells in ORNL's Radiochemical Engineering Development Center. There, the Pu-238 is separated from the neptunium through a series of chemical processes, converted to an oxide powder, and then shipped to Los Alamos National Laboratory for fabrication into ceramic pellets for the thermoelectric generator. Leftover neptunium is recycled to make more Pu-238.

HFIR can irradiate up to 6,800 grams of neptunium per year in batches that stay in the reactor for two to three months. INL's Advanced Test Reactor is also irradiating small quantities of neptunium on a limited basis and is slated for a makeover next year that will increase its capability to produce Pu-238 as well. The program has installed automated systems to press and measure the Np-237 target pellets. Wham said automating the entire process has allowed the lab to increase the production of pellets significantly, helping to more than triple the output of Pu-238.

Title: When a physician may refuse to treat a patient – Physicians News Headings: When a physician may refuse to treat a patient When a physician may refuse to treat a patient Previous Good news on the retirement plan front Content: Various laws, including laws governing emergency treatment provided by hospitals and antidiscrimination laws, as well as certain ethical constraints, have significantly limited a physician’s ability to terminate the relationship. The federal Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act, commonly referred to as “EMTALA,” was enacted by Congress in response to a concern over “patient dumping” by hospitals refusing treatment of individuals who could not afford to pay for medical services. EMTALA imposes a duty on the hospital and its physicians to provide medical screening examinations and medical stabilization of all individuals seeking emergency care, regardless of the individual’s ability to pay. Under EMTALA, a patient cannot directly sue a physician for not complying with EMTALA’s requirements, but physicians may be subject to civil monetary penalties and may be subject to exclusion from participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs for gross and flagrant or repeated violations of EMTALA. Antidiscrimination laws also have affected the circumstances when a physician may deny medical care. Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 prohibits an otherwise qualified individual with a disability from being excluded from or denied benefits of any program actively receiving federal financial assistance solely by reason of the individual’s disability. The Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 provides even broader protections for disabled individuals, including individuals who have a contagious disease. Title III of the ADA prohibits a place of public accommodation from denying an individual access to health care because of disability, unless the individual poses a direct threat or significant risk to the health and safety of others that cannot be eliminated by adequate precautions or reasonable modification of policies, practices or procedures. A disabled individual is one who has a physical impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, a record of impairment, or is regarded as having an impairment. In several cases, the courts have addressed the application of the ADA to a physician’s decision to refuse to treat a patient.

Title: Headings: Content: In relativity, we expect that even if different observers disagree about many things, they agree about intersections of world-lines. Either the particles collided or they didn't. The arrow either hit the bull's-eye or it didn't. So although general relativity is far more permissive than Newtonian mechanics about changes of coordinates, there is a restriction that they should be smooth, one-to-one functions. If there was something like a Lorentz transformation for v=c, it wouldn't be one-to-one, so it wouldn't be mathematically compatible with the structure of relativity. ( An easy way to see that it can't be one-to-one is that the length contraction would reduce a finite distance to a point.) What if a system of interacting, massless particles was conscious, and could make observations? The argument given in the preceding paragraph proves that this isn't possible, but let's be more explicit. There are two possibilities. The velocity V of the system's center of mass either moves at c, or it doesn't.

At very small scales (sub-atomic) particles can exist in several states at once. When they interact with anything else - even as small as another electron - they can experience "wavefunction collapse". A "wavefunction" in quantum mechanics is the maths used to describe how something behaves (and that means everything, though there is no point trying to work out a wavefunction for say a bus, as it would be a) impossibly complex, and b) quantum effects are so unlikely and so minuscule at that scale as to be irrelevant, so physicists only talk about wavefunctions for tiny things, such as an electron). The point of these wavefunctions is to describe the world in terms of probability - for instance, one cannot talk about an electron being in a particular place, but rather only of the probability of it being there. (this is entirely different from the uncertainty principle. That states that certain complementary metrics cannot be known with complete accuracy at small scales.

That interaction causes the photon's wavefunction to collapse, and the quantum effect of the two slit defraction to cease. (the uncertainty principle by contrast is the same whether or not the photon is observed) It is interesting to apply this explanation to Schrodinger's Cat. The radioactive decay that is to trigger the release of cyanide and kill the cat can exist in two states only as long as it interacts with nothing else. There is no need for a human observer, and so no paradox - the wavefunction of the radioactive decay collapses when it interacts with the detector and the cat in the closed box, meaning that the cat is already either alive or dead when the box is opened.

For a one dimensional case involving momentum and position it would be as follows. Δ x Δ p ≥ h This means that if we know the position exactly then we don't know the momentum. For energy and time it would be Δ E Δ t ≥ ℏ 2 Basically what these mean is that there is a certain amount of maximum precision that we can make. If we knew the energy exactly ( Δ E = 0) then we know that Δ t is AT LEAST ℏ 2.

It is not too difficult to find the momentum of a wave, but by measuring this you know that it is a wave, and lose information about where it is.
