...Pandora from the legendary myth, Pandoras Box, is a great example of a few greek values. Pandora means "all gifted." Pan means all and dora means gift. Pandora was gifted in everything, due to the gifts from the gods. Pandoras tale varies in detail. Each person interrupts it a different way, like art. This shows how beautiful the story really is. It has many valuable lessons to be learned. Pandoras story starts thousands of years ago, in the home of all the lovely gods. Prometheus was a kind god, some say he was too kind. One day, Zeus bitterly hid fire from the humans; fire was the key to their survival. Prometheus saw this, and felt sympathy for the terrified mortals. He decided to steal the fire back from Zeus and entrust it back...

...group. Myths are diverse and intricate, with completely different outcomes and views. However, taking a closer look at these stories there are countless similarities between each explanation of how humanity came to be.

The Greek myth “Pandora’s Box”, the Iroquois myth “the Diver” and the Judeo Christian myth Genesis all have similar “universal” characteristics....

...Assignment MIS This project involves packaging nails so that you make the most profit possible (this is a profit maximizing problem). Say you have six types of nails and can make as many as you need of each. These nails are in 4-inch, 3.5-inch, 3-inch, 2.5-inch, 2-inch, and 1.5-inch nails. The cost of making each type of nail depends on how big a nail it is. Those cost and selling prices are listed in the table below along with the weights. The nails will be sold in boxes of up to 30 nails. There must be no more than 10, but no less than 5, of each of three types of nails in each box. The nails in each box should weigh no more than 20 ounces. You're looking for the combination with the highest profit using a trial-and-error method. A spreadsheet would be helpful for completing this project. You'll most likely find that you identify some promising paths to follow right away and will concentrate on those to reach the best one. |Nail |Weight |Cost |Selling price | |4 inch |1 oz |4 cents |8 cents | |3.5 Inch |0.85 oz |3,5 cents |7 cents | |3 inch |0.7 oz |3 cents |6 cents | |2.5 inch |0.5 oz |2.5 cents |4 cents | |2 inch |0.25 oz |2 cents |3 cents | |1.5 inch |0.1 oz ...

What follows is an example of using two conventional shipping containers to create 90 square meters of living space in dense rainforest adjoining World Heritage Rainforest. The facility, on a nature refuge is used for rainforest research. The terrain is extremely difficult and accessed via a narrow track made by woodcutters in 1928. The techniques are simple and require only very basic skills. They produce a dry, durable ,vermin proof, comfortable, removable facility with a low ecological impact.

...Data Gathering Procedure The data for this research were collected using a survey questionnaire. The survey was created using suitable questions modified from related research and individual questions formed by the researcher. The survey was comprised of 20 to 25 questions, which were related to the participant’s perception regarding for the reject products of corrugated box in well pack. In the questionnaire, Likert scale was used to determine if the respondent agreed or disagreed in a statement. After the professor validated the questionnaire, these were distributed to the 4th year Industrial Engineering students of Quezon City Polytechnic University . The researchers assured confidentiality of their survey sheets since the identities are not important. The researchers also understood that people’s consciousness may also affect their honesty and effectiveness in answering the survey, and so, the researchers gave people the option of being anonymous. Participants were given time to respond and then the researchers collected the surveys the next day. There were no incentives offered for participating in the research. Next, the researchers planned the questions that they would be asking to the interview. The researchers interviewed certain number of workers in the company regarding to the reject products.

...In this beautiful world, many forces that can’t be identified by our naked eye surround us like anything...and some people do not even realize their existence. Forces like magnetism, electricity, gravity etc. have been a constituent of earth science. The spinning of the earth and things like gravity force etc. is due to the earth’s magnetism property. Here we are introducing a simple DIY science project for students or hobbyist – Maglev Train. Magnetic suspension, Maglev and Magnetic levitation are an approach by which a thing or any object is hanging without any support apart from the magnetic fields. This magnetic levitation approach is utilized for designing this simple maglev train. Actually the original maglev trains are very complex in design, but here we try to design a simple maglev train, which uses some permanent magnets, cardboard or wooden boards etc. Working Principle of Maglev Trains: The basic principle behind the magnetic levitation is to use the magnetism property to levitate any objects. Magnetism is a part of our elementary science, and the principle is that “the like/same poles repel each other but the unlike/opposite poles attract each other”. Actually our Maglev Train works on this principle of magnetism. The train floats on the guide rail due to this principle of magnetism that the magnetic forces. Materials Required for Maglev Trains: The materials required for the construction of Maglev Train model are listed below. * Wooden block : 5" x...

...Vengeance It was dark outside, but the moon illuminated the sky. James Florence had a strange feeling that someone was following him. He turned around, but nobody was there. Maybe he just couldn’t see anything. Then, he heard a crack behind him. He stopped and looked behind him again. As he suspected, nobody was there. Now he was getting really nervous. “Maybe it was just a tree branch falling”, he said to himself. However, once he started walking he heard it again. It sounded like somebody was walking over leaves. The crunching was getting closer. It was getting louder. It was getting faster. He started to walk faster. Then, he started running. The crunching was getting louder and louder every step he took. He heard a growling noise behind him. It sounded like it was a dog, but he couldn’t tell. Then, when the beast stepped into the moonlight he realized it was his dog, Bear. He realized that Bear had followed him from his house. Bear was a black lab with a white spot on its left paw, and a white spot on its right ear. Bear was just over three years old. James had gotten him about two years ago. He told Bear to go home. Bear whimpered, but then started walking back into the shadows. After a minute or two, James heard a whimper, and then a squeal. There was silence. “Bear”, James called. He heard nothing. He started walking to where he heard Bear last. He saw a red substance on the ground in front of him. He touched it, and the red substance was slimy and stuck to his finger...
