...Due to the enormous expense, no further tests were conducted. The second bomb, known as "Little Boy" was detonated over the city of Hiroshima, and the final bomb, "Fat Man" was detonated over the city of Nagasaki. The United States where keeping a secret away from the rest of the world and they wouldn't even tell some of the people that worked for them what they were doing. In my own opinion I think it is wrong to keep secrets from the states because many people were hurt from this. People died of cancers because of the radiation that came from the bombs. The employment went through the roof during this time. They went from pretty much just talking about a bomb on paper, and than in the late 1942 they had a project with about 125,000 active employees at its peek. The Manhattan Project was extreme secret project. By 1945, the project had nearly 40 laboratories and factories which employed about 200,000 people. Among these employees were some greatest scientist. Included: Albert Einstein, Enrico Fermi, Richard Feynman, J. Robert Oppenheimer, and Harold Urey. There are many more but this is just a couple. This was a very important project...

...lessen the amount of calories. It will also affect how we advertise it because it is a short, catchy, and non-difficult name that no one will have problems pronouncing or reading. Baked Hut will export food related products that will differ from a typical fast food restaurant in various ways. In current typical North American fast food markets, restaurants such as McDonald’s, Burger King, and KFC provide customers with food containing high amounts of calories, saturated and trans fats, sodium salt and processed sweeteners that increase your risk for chronic diseases. Baked Hut will alter this issue by providing the same idea of fast food, but instead encountering the health risks associated with regular fast food and providing customers with healthier food. The idea is for customers to gain the same pleasure of eating “fast food”, but without being conscious of how it is affecting their health. Generally, we’re looking at North American, or westernized style dining, and expand our market in New York City, located in the America. Our objective is to gain the same amount of attention and exposure, but providing healthier choices in our menu in comparison to foods in McDonald’s or Burger King. Therefore, by adding a healthy style of food, and by providing the excelling fast service you would usually see in a functioning...

...of both corporate donations and governmental funds have uncovered new information about the Nacirema. Although there are hundreds or perhaps thousands of Nacirema rituals, ceremonies, and practices that merit intense study and analysis, the focus of this research paper is perhaps one of the most bizarre and poorly understood of all their rituals. This ritual has it’s roots in many different cultures dispersed across the world dating back hundreds of years. This most interesting ritual has been celebrated in a very concentrated region of Nacirema for hundreds of years located in a few costal cities north of the body of water “Gulf of the Land of Maize”. Although this ritual is celebrated to some degree in selected Nacirema cities of this region, the epicenter of this ritual and it’s many strange customs is the city that straddles the end of the big river Ojibwe. This city is “Crescent City”, aptly named for the villages of the city that followed the curvature of the big river Ojibwe. Once per year in the third month when the Spring season begins to spread across Nacimera, tens of thousands descend upon the Crescent City and join with the local inhabitants to celebrate the ritual known as Mardi Gras. This paper will serve as an introduction to this ritual including an explanation of the some of the elements of the ritual, some of the history and origins of these elements, discussion...

...African Americans and their involvement in Olympic Swimming; Why are there so few African American swimmers? Marcos Mendez Georgia Southern University Abstract This paper explores the phenomena that we see in Olympic Swimming. Whites dominate this sport and African Americans hardly ever participate in this sport. This research paper explores why that is, by examining numerous sources. These sources were obtained using the internet. From the research conducted, their seem to be varying answers to this question. However the main ones are genetics and socioeconomic factors. Consequently, the genetic research is not a direct correlation to why African Americans don’t participate in swimming. Genetics only points out that differences in muscle composition, bone density, and buoyancy have some effect on a person’s ability to swim. The major cause for this goes into the past to segregation and economics. History of Olympic Swimming Swimming was learnt by prehistoric people in order to cross bodies of water. This can be proved in ancient egyptian paintings( 2011 Olympic. Org). Swimming did not truly become an organized sport until the early 19th century when British swimming clubs began to hold competitions. Swimming was added to the Olympic in 1896. History of African American Swimming Now lets look at African swimming. In 1451 when Europeans began exploring Africa. Europeans regarded Africans as “ The best swimmers in the world.” They attributed these swimming skills...

...in three Americans. A study show in the three experiment found that presenting obese people with a passage that described obesity as disease decreased the dissatisfaction they reported about their own bodies. The term disease suggest that bodies, physiology, and genes are malfunctioning. By invoking physiological explanations for obesity, the disease label encourages the perception that weight is unchangeable. A way to talk about obesity is that it reduces blame and dissatisfaction. In this paper I will be discussing how individuals that are obese overcome obstacles throughout their lives. I consider obesity to be disease because some people cannot control what or how much they eat. Over one-half of all Americans are overweight or obese. If you are overweight or obese, carrying this extra weight puts you at risk for developing many diseases. Women generally have more subcutaneous fat than men, but appear to suffer a greater cardiovascular risk from a given degree of fat than women. Obesity is the net result of an excess of energy consumption over expenditure. Factors that must be considered as contributing to causation are: heredity, and altered metabolism of adipose tissue, the list goes on and on. Overeating is clearly a prominent contributor to obesity. Feeding behavior occurs in response to...

...An atomic bomb is a weapon with great explosive power that results from the sudden release of energy upon the splitting, or fission, of the nuclei of such heavy elements as plutonium or uranium. (Encyclopædia Britannica, 2016) This catastrophic bomb was used twice during World War II. On August 6, 1945, the United States dropped its first atomic bomb on the city of Hiroshima, Japan. The bomb was known as "Little Boy", a uranium gun-type bomb that exploded with about thirteen kilotons of force. Three days after the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, a second atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki, Japan, on August 9, a twenty one kiloton plutonium device known as "Fat Man.”(Atomic Heritage Foundation, 2012) This paper will discuss the creation and use of the first two atomic bombs. Early in 1939, German physicists had learned the secrets of splitting a uranium atom. Fears soon spread over the possibility of Nazi scientists utilizing that energy to produce a bomb capable of unspeakable destruction. Scientists Albert Einstein, who fled Nazi persecution, and Enrico Fermi, who escaped Fascist Italy, were now living in the United States. They agreed that President Franklin Roosevelt, must be informed of the dangers of atomic technology in the hands of the Axis powers. In late 1941, the American started to design and build an atomic bomb, which later received its code name, the Manhattan Project, which was named after one of the initial sites of research, Columbia University...

...The Bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki Pearl Harbor was bombed on December 7, 1941. An air attack led by Commander Mitsuo Fuchida, which consisted of 183 fighters and bombers, attacked Pearl Harbor at 7:55 a.m. During the bombing many ships were destroyed, and many soldiers died. This event would bring the United States into World War II. The Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor because it was considered the height of America’s Naval supremacy. Another reason is that the Japanese knew the United States would primilary be using the navy to attack them. Since the Japanese were trying to take over China, they knew it would be a bit easier for them to do it because it would be harder for us to get to Japan and stop them if they destroyed the American Navy in Pearl Harbor. Despite how far Japan was from Pearl Harbor, it was still closer then the rest of the United States. The Japanese fleet had to sail over 4,000 miles to launch airplanes to attack Hawaii. The Japanese were able to attack Pearl Harbor because America's intelligence community failed to notice them. Some reasons why it was hard for the American intelligence community to notice the Japanese on their long naval journey, was the Japanese would only travel at night and would not use any radio communication. Any form of radio interception was impossible (Truman). The Manhattan Project started when Albert Einstein left Germany to come to the United States to escape Nazi prosecution. A month after Einstein had left Germany he...

It is well known that technology, coupled with knowledge and innovation have the potential to alter traditional concepts of the urban community. The cities to benefit from these changes are those with strong appeal for artists, creative individuals and younger educated people. The cities which have this creative skill base will be able to adopt and develop new technology. Historically, Melbourne has a long history as a manufacturing city. However with the rise of China and Asia there has been a steady decline in the manufacturing industry in Victoria. Melbourne has revived itself as a knowledge city with higher education arguably being a key factor in Melbourne’s current and future prosperity (Committee for Melbourne, 2007). Can Melbourne leverage from its historical base in manufacturing and knowledge to be a leader in emerging technology? It is well known that a city which can adopt new technology will excel...

...A Pricing Strategy to Promote Low-Fat Snack Choices through Vending Machines Simone A. French, PhD, Robert W Jeffery, PhD, Mary Story, PhD, Peter Hannan, MStat, M. Patricia Snyder, RD, MPH Introduction There is general agreement that measures that would reduce the fat content of the diet in the population as a whole would be helpful in preventing or delaying the development of several chronic diseases.1-4 An important question for public health policy, therefore, is how to encourage the population as a whole to make lower-fat food choices. To date, environmental intervention strategies to reduce the population prevalence of high-fat food consumption have focused primarily on improving consumer knowledge through mass media, schoolbased, and point-of-purchase education.-"-- Such interventions have shown positive effects on nutrition knowledge, but changes in food-choice behaviors have been modest in magnitude, variable, and often short lived. Environmental strategies designed to influence food choice through mechanisms of availability and cost rather than nutrition education have received less research attention.5-14 Perhaps the most impressive of these studies in magnitude of effect was a recent cafeteria-based study that examined pricing and availability influences on food choice.'4 Prices of fruit and salad were reduced by 50%, and the number of fruit and salad items available was increased. Purchase of fruit and salad increased threefold during...

...CREATIVITY An Experimental Psychology Requirement Presented to Arts and Sciences Division Cor Jesu College Digos City By HANNAH SHEREE G. TULOD BS Psychology 3 September 2015 ABSTRACT The objective of the creativity experiment is to measure the flexibility, novelty and originality through response production of a series of letters .The experiment has two parts the part 1 which the experimenter presents the anagrams and ask the subject to form as many words as possible from the given anagrams with a time limit of 4 minutes. And the Part 2 which the experimenter presents the anagrams as words and the task of the subject is to form as many words as possible within 4 minutes. Result shows that out of the anagrams that is given in the part I of the experiment it has the many numbers of words that is been created by the subjects with a total of 158 words while in the part II the total responses is 124 .The difference between the Part I and part II is the subjects created more words than the Part II. And also out of the anagrams that is given the procedure in the part I is more likely the easier unlike the Part II. It implies that when the experimenter presents the anagrams as words it would be likely elicited or difficult to the subject to make words out of the given words unlike making words out of the scrambled. The resuls also shows that the words that there are almost 5 words that is frequently used and also through this experiment the speedity of the...

...virtually all diets products and programs available in our society. One of the critical issues has been to understand a diet with short term weight loss results without any serious health consequences. Research shows that virtually in a fort night, there is a new diet that comes up. Yet with all these debates people are not loosing weight. Not only are friends, relatives, and individuals driving themselves crazy, but they are exposing themselves into mind and body damages by consumption of these diets and pills. This paper gives the process and an analysis of how one can lose weight without losing their mind. Discover your Calorie Target The first step is to know the amount of calorie that one should be eating everyday in order to loose, gain, or maintain your weight. Research show that in order to loose one pound of fat then one have to deduct 3,5000 calories in the body. It is also true when one wishes to gain weight where an addition of 3500 calories gains one pound of fat. There are available online resources which can help one to know the amount of calories one should be eating everyday. Example is freedieting.com. After one has identified the amount of calories oe should consume, it is important then to commit. This where people lose their mind as they find it difficult to commit. However, in order not to lose your mind, it is good to seek for people who will support you in your endeavor. By having people around you who tells you that you can make it, this can motivate you...
