In the late eighties and early nineties alternative music tried to save rock and roll, but it was too big of a category. If a band didn't sing country or rap, they were considered alternative. Every alternative band had their own idea of music, and it all spread apart, running farther away from rock. Finally, when alternative became more defined and broke ... in a decade to revive the long forgotten era of rock and roll.

Industrial music has weaved rock and roll with evil and misery. The founder and leader of the industrial revolution is the band Nine Inch Nails. Most people do ...
- 11462: The Amateur Scientist
- I was on my way to work, when I started to read this interesting story and I don't deny that I was a little sceptical in the beginning. But the more I read, the more I wanted to know about this man and his unique ways to define Science. I finished reading it ... The writing won my attention because his stories about his youth and his days at Princeton fascinated me. He was always exploring his environment to learn new things about science, especially how things worked. Feynman's thirst for clever things to do and clever ways to do ordinary things were remarkable. One of the best anecdotes that illustrate this point, was his experience at Princeton detailing ants' behavior. Feynman was constantly ... the connection between hypothesis and truth, so one day at Princeton he started to observe the ants' that were coming out on his windowsill. The experiment with the ants is a reflection of this man's mind, always in search for an answer.

- 11464: The Apprenticeship Of Duddy Kravitz

- 11465: Frankenstein: Rights and Responsibilities
- ... Scientists invent and test for the sole purpose of education, but is an end ever discussed? Of course a glorious impact and immense gains for all, are what we want to happen, but that isn't always the case. For every achievement there must be a failure and no one wants that on their plate. Just as in the case of Frankenstein and the monster, a mistake was made and the inventor had to acknowledge that, and correct what he had done. The only problem was that he didn't. Victor Frankenstein used science to help him build a "monster", but when his experiment failed, he wouldn't take responsibility for his creation. Science is about understanding nature. It incorporates all things around us and attempts to look at every hair, muscle and movement of an object to find out everything about ...

According to Paul, though, the men haven't entirely lost human sensitivity: they're not as callous as they appeared in Chapter 1, wolfing down their dead companions' rations.

- 11468: The Downfall of Lady Macbeth

To beguile the time, Look like the time; bear welcome in your eye, Your hand, your tongue: look like the innocent flower But be the serpent under't." This urging causes Macbeth to possess black and deep desires', which lead him to murder the king. She takes it upon herself to pressure him and therefore, her bold character is revealed.
