Exposure to high levels of radioactive waste can cause birth defects, cancer, and death. We all need to be aware of these dangers that exist across the country. It is imperative that we rethink our visual communication effort for warning current and future generations of the imminent danger below. The comic strip is a great medium to get across a point to many levels of audiences. In this cartoon I attempt to send the message that nuclear power will kill everything, even innocent cockroaches.
For instant, he creates a plan to escape from the Cyclopes cave. “Three absent/ I tried them silently together… then slung a man under each middle one.../ so three sheep can convey each man.”(IX. 466-478). Odysseus in this way fools the Cyclopes into letting Odysseus and his men escape from the cave. Odysseus is also clever when he planned out a way to pass through the island of siren, which had a monsters that sang and lured sailors to jump off the ship and swim straight to the monster and it would eat them: “Take me and bind me to the half way up the mast; bind me as I stand upright, with a bond so fast that I cannot possibly break away…If I beg and pray to set me free, then bind me more tightly still.’’(XII.
ABC decided to conduct a thorough investigation of the Food Lion supermarket chain. When ABC decided to pursue Food Lion they sent two of their producers into two different Food Lion Stores with cameras and microphones hidden in order to catch what was going on behind the scenes in the Food Lion stores. The ABC producers submitted employment applications that misrepresented their educational and employeement background in order to not give away who they were which would defeat the purpose of undercover reporting. The November 1992 broadcast of Primetime Lives undercover investigation exposed that Food Lion employees were using spoiled fish, and soaking them in bleach to get rid of the smell. Also, putting bbq sauce on meat to take away from the smell.
When Doctors are Their Own Best Guinea Pigs This article is about how two scientists who won Nobel Prizes in Medicine suspected that Bacteria that were in Biopsies cause stomach inflammation and ulcers. Dr.Barry J. Marshal, one of the scientists experiments on himself to prove his theory. Just like how Dr. Jekyll wanted to prove his theory of moving your emotions into another man, he experiments on himself also. Dr. Marshall drank a potion cocktail of pure Helicobacter pylori bacteria, just like Dr.Jekyll drank his potion every time to turn into Mr.
Perfect for the disposal of such things as waste from nuclear reactors!" (Page 2), he chants. Not surprisingly, the villagers, who are supposed to build a sacred shrine over the vicious hole, agree. As soon as they are convinced that "there would be absolutely no above-ground contamination for several thousand years and that they would share in the profits" (Page 2), they eagerly gave the hole to the concessionaire. After the villagers, city people, and the government have tasted the benefits of the hole, disregard and thanklessness toward the contribution of our environment is demonstrated.
They used secret messengers to relay information between other hiding places. Numerous times the Nazis invaded their house looking for Jews that could be hidden there. One day a man came and asked for money, Betsy opened the door. Instead of the man coming back for his money, he had notified the Nazis and this is how they were captured. To avoid discovery, the Ten Booms carefully and cleverly developed an alarm system.
Ray Bradbury wrote this piece of writing while he was very disturbed. It was right after the atom bomb, and he saw the great destruction it cause, and even afterwards from the radiation. All this destruction came from technology. He wants us to stop and think before we use or invent technology about the after cause and consequences it cause. It’s very interesting to see how through out the whole story it describes how beneficial and helpful the extreme advanced technology in the house was for humans.
They would tell each other that they would call the “karma police” if they did something wrong (Randall 223). Radiohead’s lead vocalist, Thom Yorke, instantly depicts the main idea of 1984 in the first verse: “Karma police, arrest this man / He talks in maths / He buzzes like a fridge / He’s like a detuned radio” (“Karma…” verse 1). The karma police can easily be connected to the Thought Police in Orwell’s book, searching Oceania for the ones who are rebellious thinkers. As the lyrical “he,” being Winston Smith, talks in “maths,” a thought crime is being committed and the Thought Police are being asked to take care of him. Winston’s mind buzzes like a fridge and thoughts race through his head like a detuned radio; they are the unwanted sounds and thoughts of rebellion.
MARCUS H…mmm That robot looks very attractive maybe it will give me some lollies and crisps. Marcus is rescued by Kyle Reese, who fights like the power rangers and takes him to safety, by destroying the T800. MARCUS Is your gun not working? KYLE REESE OH no it works perfectly well, Guns are only for terminators it’s not my style. MARCUS That’s a bit silly, I will stay with you.
One of the most common uses for fluoride was in the form of rat poison. Fluoride is the main ingredient in rodenticides, insecticides, and in wood preservatives due to the fact that it inhibits all forms of life (Murphy, 2008, p. 8). Fluorine spontaneously combusts when it is exposed to the air and is a key ingredient in rocket propulsion, developed by the Germans between the great wars to help “lift off” the space shuttles (Murphy, 2008, p. 8). Major George Racey Jordan, a member of the U.S. Air force and veteran of both world wars, said in a speech delivered at the Thirtieth Women’s Patriotic Conference on National Defense in Washington, DC, February 1956, “During the war I learned how the Soviets used fluorides in the drinking water of Siberian prison camps to weaken the minds of their prisoners, to make them dull, cow like and more resigned to their slavery,” (Murphy, 2008, p. 251). The United States army’s chief of the Manhattan Project, General Leslie C. Groves, said that fluoride was essential in creating the atomic bomb (Bryson, 2004, p. 46).
