...What is technology doing to and for us? Sitting on the playground with a tablet avoiding a couple kids; playing with jump ropes, draw with chalk on the ground, playing hop scotch, teeter totter and swinging on the monkey bars. A seven-year-old boy is playing basketball on the tablet and when asked by his friend to come play basketball on the court. He reply’s “I don’t wanna, I’m playing on my tablet.” In schools, students are learning skills that they will need to carry them through life and to find jobs. Schools use technology more and more everyday to teach kids and relate to them. Kids are allowed to bring their own devices to class such as tablets, Ipads, and Mini Laptops and use applications that the teacher may require them to. Clearly, technology is becoming increasingly essential to learning. Students with basic academic skills improve with the use of everyday technology. With the speed of technology solving problems is becoming achievable at a faster pace. A good example of that is finding out about schools closing during bad weather. You can have an email sent to you, or even a text message sent to your mobile device, letting know if you have class. Performing school tasks as in writing research papers, finding out your grades for the semester, and submitting work is so much easier. For example flipping through pages to find a word in the dictionary while looking over it once or twice became easier. Now, you can type it in online and in seconds...

...Introduction Over the years pharmaceuticals have been trying to find multiple ways to improve the drug delivery system for cancer. Microgels and hydrogels were first established, and then the new creations of nanogels were created. Nanogels have grown to have a huge impact for the use of certain anticancer drugs. Although characteristics of nanogels are still being studied by recent researchers they tend to have many advanced features as a drug delivery system. Some features include: simplicity of drug formulation; high drug-loading capacity; exceptional dispersion stability; and prolonged storage of drug formulations in the freeze-dried form. [1] Nanogels are cross linked particles of sub-micrometer size, made up of hydrophilic polymers. There three-dimensional polymer chains are formed by using covalent linkages or the self-assembly processes. [2] A polymer with two different properties such as soluble and insoluble is called an amphiphilic polymer. When the polymer is added to water it creates nanoparticles. The outside of the nanoparticle is called the shell and the center is called the core. When the core is cross linked it then forms a nanogel. Within this experiment cysteamine hydrochloride is added to create crosslink chains in side of the nanogel and TCEP is then added to cleave the disulfide bonds within the gel. Because Nile red is insoluble in water it is added before water during the cross linking reaction. Without the addition of cysteamine hydrochloride the Nile...

...Hayley Masi May 8, 2013 Law Lipman E1 Justice Delayed is Justice Denied The term “Justice delayed is justice denied,” was written by William Ewart Gladstone (1809-1898). Gladstone was one of the greatest English politicians and was also former British Prime Minister. It has several possible origins, one of which is the Magna Carta, clause 40 which states, “To no one will we sell, to no one will we refuse or delay, right or justice.” A prompt trial is guaranteed by the sixth amendment of the United States Constitution. A defendant who is held in jail for a lengthy period of time prior to his day in court could ultimately be found not guilty and then will have been in a sense wrongfully imprisoned. Trials that are pushed back for years may mean that witnesses may be lost or their memories may fade and a guilty man could walk. Victims of crimes and their families must prolong an agonizing ordeal awaiting their day in court. Parties on both sides of the law may be adversely affected by a justice system that is slow and inefficient. In the New York Times, an article written showed that in the Bronx there were more people waiting for their trial then in the rest of the city combined. This borough “was responsible for more than half of New York City’s criminal cases that were over two years old, and for two-thirds of the defendants waiting for their trials in jail for more than five years.” Of the cases eventually tried in the Bronx, less than half of the...

...point of contrast (PC). Remember that a point of contrast is a quality that both subjects possess in different ways. This is called a “difference in kind.” Apples and oranges both have seeds, but they have different kinds of seeds. Your points of contrast should avoid the Not/-Er Fallacy. In other words, you must write about the actual characteristics of each subject and not simply say one has X but the other does not, or that one has X but the other has more X. Topic Sentences (T) You will have two topic sentences in each paragraph. One will come at the beginning of the paragraph and identify the first subject as it relates the point of contrast (the general difference). After you have provided the necessary information (see below), use a transitional expression (on the other hand, in contrast, however) and write the second topic sentence which will identify the second subject as it relates to the point of contrast. Support Distinguishing Characteristics (DC) After each topic sentence, you will present in specific, clear detail the characteristics that distinguish the first subject from the second. The details you present will vary. If you were writing about the characteristics that distinguish an apple seed from an orange seed, you would need to use description in order to show the reader what makes the apples seed different. If you are writing about how a person is obsessed with his self-appearance, you would need to provide examples of the person’s...

...About Apples History The history of apples stretches back to the days of Adam and Eve, when it is believed to have been the “forbidden fruit” described in the Bible. Despite this long standing history, apples did not always grow naturally in New England. While the first apples are thought to have grown on the lower slopes of Tian Shan, a mountain range separating Kazakhstan and Krygystan, they also grew wild in Central and Southwest Asia, China, Italy, Switzerland, Spain and Greece. Through conquest and exploration, apples were spread when Romans conquered England and when Spaniards brought them to Mexico and South America. It wasn’t until the mid 1600’s that the Pilgrims cultivated them in Massachusetts. It is believed that John Endecott, an early governor, was the first to bring an apple tree to North America, and the first orchard was planted on Beacon Hill by a clergyman named William Blaxton. It is Blaxton who is credited for growing the first named apple, the Yellow Sweeting. Once apples were established in New England, they played an active role in everyday life. As a fruit which was easily stored through the winter, as well as being very beneficial to settlers’ health, apples were a main staple in early settlers’ diets. Despite the fact that apples were not initially from North America, and have been growing disease-free for centuries in their native habitats, the early settlers found that the long, hot summers and cold winters of New England grew apples unlike...
