There comes a time, and this is that time" (page 75.) I think that Moses had to die in order for the story to continue because if he had lived I don't think that the Battle would have been such a alarming experience for Adam, and because of the traumaticness of watching his father's death Adam was able to grow up and become more of a man. Some of the actions of Moses's death were Adam went into a state of almost shock, and wept and mourned ...

- 12324: Nuclear Fusion
- ... are now trying different methods here on Earth to make fusion the next large-scale energy source. The most suitable reaction occurs between the nuclei of the two isotopes of Hydrogen - Deuterium (D) and Tritium (T). Scientist have already begun to test reactions involving just Deuterium or Deuterium and Helium (3He). (JSPF, Source 2) The basic equation for D-T is Deuterium + Tritium ------ Helium-4 + neutron. The amount of material fuel needed for fusion is rather low. For example 10 grams of Deuterium (which can be extracted from 500 liters of water) and 15g of ... or by the accumulation of Helium "ash" from the fusion reaction. As fuel ions are burnt in the fusion process they must be replaced by new fuel and the Helium ash must be removed. (U.S. Energy Science Program, Source 5) To fuel nuclear fusion reactions, scientists heat a gas until its components dissociate (separate) in a process appropriately named dissociation. Once the gas's particles are separated into a ...

- ... because Tom was a Negro there would be a slim chance of winning.

- 12326: "In Cold Blood" Review
- ... of characters childhoods are shown. The different plots are handled very well in the movie. The main plot obviously is the murders and the run from the law. Other subplots that are shown are Smith's internal fight with his past in which his father deserted him, and at one point, had a gun pointed to his head. Also there appears to be tension between Smith and Hickock. They think differently at times, especially when it comes to the discussion of the crime. You can't help but feel sympathetic towards Smith, as it appears that he is forced into this by Hickock. All characters in the movie were played well by the actors in my opinion. They all seemed real and seemed to fit in with the setting and the time period. I think that Hickock and Smith are not victims of forces beyond their control, they are victims of, at least in Smith's case, a bad upbringing. The two murderers have no direction in their lives. The only skills that Hickock seems to know is how to steal things and how to write phony checks. Smith seems ...

- 12328: To Be Or Not To Be... As A Cha
- Hamlet's classsic "To be or not to be..."(Hamlet, prince of Denmark, 3.1.57) speech really shows who he is. Obviously Hamlet is horribly depressed. We have already seen several examples of this, but this ... his speech shows his weakness and indecisiveness. Hamlet is consistently melancholy, but he never really acts on it; he just kind of wallows around, full of self-pity and loathing. Finally, it gives us Hamlet's reason for not committing suicide. Throughout the play he seems to wish for death and here we find out why he doesn't bring it on himself. This also gives us a window into his personality. This speech provides us with a clear understanding of Hamlet and his motivations. Hamlet is seriously in need of some Prozac. ...
