Silent Explosion (A comparative study)


Everything has something behind it. And something is nothing –“unspecified” or unknown, defined by itself. Based on the relative standard of the law of nature, something comes out like a single sprout, and everything started to exist. That is the unique demonstration of existence that something itself cannot define its own characteristic. Throughout the power of sense, a human being contrives varieties of questions out of something which begins from independent perception followed by undergoing observations. As a result, these serve as a bridge discovering the truth behind what is considered the reality and explore concrete answers beyond views which are “only believed as it is”.
Throughout uncertainties underlying questionable types of phenomena, Nicolas Copernicus and Mohandas Gandhi were just one of these human beings who went through painstaking and skilled observations in order to achieve the truth when “something behind a single thing was left unanswered”.
Nicolas Copernicus, a Polish astronomer, amended an arbitrary that the Earth is the center of the universe – which was the long-accepted view conceptualized by Ptolemy. Copernicus went into a prudent scrutiny grasping the chance to undergo further studies with regard to the rampant concept during the old times. By formulating precise analogies taken from practical scheming courses and applied principle of mathematics and philosophy, he affiliated  the focus of his study basically from the Earth’s structure and movement until obtaining the status of its location. Ascribing logical conducts pertaining to the Earth’s regular revolution amidst heavenly motions, it sorted out into driving hints that the Earth itself moves into its own axis accompanied by the outside movements controlled by either force or nature. It is due since the form of the Earth is oblique spheroid considering that it is a flattened surface deceived by the human sight. He stressed out to the basis of Earth’s actuality by observing its co relevance to other bodies including those which are not controlled or driven by the Earth’s motion.
In the latter, his effort made n encompassing result that the sun is the center of the sphere of the fixed stars. Another aftermath revealed the Earth’s distance to other planets which were ascribed if they appeared to be irregular as if they are governed by a center other than the Earth. As the planets happen to appear nearer or further from the Earth, their position might appear to have an irregular movement. Thus, his theory stated that the Earth is not the center as its movement is more probable than its fixity, especially with regard to the daily revolution.
Next was Gandhi’s view about rational discussion and persuasion that these two are effective tools for solving conflicts. Conflicts interceded when both parties do not agree with whatever the situation falls into dispute. For him, reasoning prowess compels an individual’s idea to fall in such a way of being self critical and examining one’s point of view regarding the disputed subject. As he perceived violence is driven and controlled by a situation where inevitable intervention of evil demeanor counteract, he strode to click an absolute way where human kind and heart must be opened instead of letting intricacies and immoralities predominate. He found out every violent situation as the worst thing to be taken up, because violence in its use rejects the rare essence of human soul, to be won over by appealing into others. By realizing this anthological fact, making every opposing subject worse, he made another method called satyagraha. It is a type of spiritual power, to achieve a goal taking rational discussion fall into a calm and critical self-reflection. He called it a great way persisting on a pursuing truth aimed to destruct the barriers of prejudice, ill-will, dogmatism and self-righteousness. It is by touching one’s heart and moving it smoothly not just the mind. “Suffering love” is the best thing to penetrate the opponent’s heart as it forms an inspiring principle of method. In the opposite view of his method, he discovered its value when it did not suited on all humanitarian beliefs and values. His method showed a limited standard implying that some totalitarian systems and mandates undermined the essential significance of satyagraha – that not on general aspects of soul-force could possibly apply its transforming method due to differences of beliefs.
Gandhi’s and Copernicus’ views have a huge and subtle type relationship discerning the best and helping way in discovering something behind everything existing partially opened. Their countless ideas, candid efforts, constant observations and wholehearted dedications are one of kind concerns explaining the truth beyond this intricate world. Their views also adjusted in a reciprocate intercession between each other. In some instances, Copernicus’ theory concerning the real actuality of the Earth, made an enormous impact to the world through “soul-force” application as he sincerely put his effort into calm a non-chaotic way opposing to the heretical belief. While Gandhi’s view of satyagraha is as significant as of Copernicus as humility and open-mindedness bore an absolute answer from exploring an unsettled circumstance.
Their views highly changed the worldview of man as their own understanding to “everything they felt unsatisfied”, encouraged them to exert lots of tactic in order to explore “something they saw as a quite-questionable one.”  When everything happens to exist, whether by belief or conflict, something is designed orderly by God that human beings have to discover it.

A research on How A balllpoint pen works

Doing the Hard Stuff
As discovery exists, invention follows. And as invention follows, development proceeds. There is no way to control everything that happens to exist as human mind continually explores. Indeed, it is not quite surprising why everything we inevitably sense brings forth quests and moves some people to probe and create something that is not strange and futile but that is new and useful. Every invention comes from a simple existence that is just being developed through human efforts. And a ballpoint pen is just one of the simple things that have existed, being developed, and has become an improvised writing machine. And as history divulges its trace, it’s simple figure and parts conceal a complex task of mechanism to which we may say that invention itself exists beyond description.
A ballpoint pen is a writing instrument with a tip that is continuously supplied with ink. The pen consists of a metal ball seated in a socket below an ink reservoir, (The Incredible Ball Point). When applied to a writing surface, the ball rotates and is bathed with just enough ink for smooth writing.
Now the goal of this pen is to create a device that can distribute a fast-drying thick ink, without having the ink dry out of the pen itself.  So the key is the ball. The ball acts as a continuous cap that keeps the ink from drying and it is the rolling mechanism for the ink into the paper. A hard task. First to keep the ink dry, second to get the ink out. The ball is typically made of brass, because it is not only strong but also has a pleasing appearance […..] and does not rust. That is why it is made of solid to compensate with gas and liquid when used and unused, (www.novelguide.com). The ball seems the most crucial element for the mechanism, yet, its other partner that shares responsibility is the ink. We might say that the ink can actually be put into whatever pen we may prefer to choose. However, it plays much subtle when it is perfectly blended and made slightly thick to dry in the pen reservoir and be free of particles. The ink is made different compared to a fountain pen because the ballpoint pen ink finds its place to keep the balance of viscosity. That is why if a fountain pen ink is used in a ballpoint pen. It would easily leak out or clog. The ink has to live in a house where it is apt to survive.
Lastly, the socket. Since the tip of pen is hard to be visualized, we might say that the socket is not that more important. Unknowingly, its function is the most important for a ballpoint pen that helps the ink and the metal ball in maneuvering.  According to the dictionary, it is an opening in any fitting that matches the outside diameter of a pipe or tube. It is where the ball is fitted allowing it to roll around freely, (encyclopedia).  A socket for holding the writing ball-pint pen comprises a tubular member having a tip potion formed to hold a writing ball, a rod inserted into the tubular member to receive the ball in a seat provided at the forward end [….]. Ink passages are formed between the tubular member and the rod and grooved ink outlets circumferentially provided in the inner walls of the tip portion of the tubular member to communicate with ink passages and the outside of the socket. [….] aqueous ink filled in the ink passages is supplied through the ink outlets to the portion of the ball which is exposed to the outside of the socket, (freepatent.online.com).
Some ballpoint pens are not completely dependent on gravity work. In some designs, there is a constant pressure applied behind the column of ink, enabling the writer to use the pen even if the writing tip is elevated. It requires a certain amount of pressure to be applied in order for it work. Hence, it lacks the free-flowing quality found in some other pen designs, (www.ehow.com). Its ink may rely on the gravity as well, but stored a lot more in the cartridge.
It is simple enough in theory but in practice, the designing of a ballpoint pen is tough. The metal ball, the ink and the socket are the simple characters with bigger roles behind this unimaginable work. Doing the hard stuff.

How a Ball point pen works



Doing the Hard Stuff


As discovery exists, development follows. And as development follows, a new discovery exists. There’s no way out to control everything that happens to exist as human mind continually explores. Thus, it’s not quite- surprising why everything we simply sense leads to a new invention. The ballpoint pen is just one of human being’s products of invention. Yet, as history divulges its trace, a pen or a ball pen still came from simple existence that becomes an improvised writing instrument. From its simple figure and parts, conceals a complex task of mechanism.
A ballpoint pen (modern writing instrument) is a pen with a small rotating ball made of metal to disperse ink as we write. This consists of ink, socket, reservoir or the tube and the ball. The ink is placed inside a plastic tube- looks like a stick; at the single top bottom connects the socket; and at the end part is tightened the small ball (not totally end, but between the ink reservoir and socket).
Now, the goal of this pen is to create a device that can distribute a fast-drying thick ink, without having the ink dry out of the pen itself. So the key is the ball. The ball acts as a continuous cap that keeps the ink from drying and it’s a mechanism for getting the ink into the paper. A hard task –one, to keep the ink dry, second, to get the ink out. Additionally, the ball is made of metal to compensate with solid and gas when used and unused. That’s why it’s not made of cartoon or foam. However, it’s not that of a ball’s responsibility where we could rely on. The socket holds the ball in tight as at the same time doing its task to help the ball roll around as we write. The socket seems unimportant, yet, its function is the same as the ball. It’s just that it is hard to visualize how it works with the ball. The half portion of the ball is held by the socket, and the back is exposed so it can pick up the ink reservoir.  That’s why the ball fits into the socket with just enough space to move freely. That’s the role of the socket. It’s somewhat a half-orbital little figure around the ball which we might say we cannot locate it inside. Also, through the socket relies the effectiveness of the pen’s ink which it doesn’t easily losses from the tube. That’s why there are pen that losses the balance of the ink when scratched on the paper. Some easily dries out; some easily flows without control. Lastly, the ink itself. We might say that the ink can actually be put into whatever pen we may prefer to choose. However, it plays much subtle when used on a ball point pen where it really works effectively and no-sweat. The ink finds its place where it can keep the balance of viscosity. That’s why a fountain pen ink is ineffective for easy writing for the viscosity of its ink is low. To make it clear, the ink has to live in a house where it apt to survive.
In using, it is the simplest conclusion as it facilitates its routine through the principle of physics:
As the pen moves across the paper, the ball turns and gravity forces the ink down the reservoir and onto the ball where it is transferred into the paper. It’s the rolling mechanism that allows the ink to flow onto the top of the ball and roll onto the paper we’re writing on while at the same time sealing the ink from the air so it does not dry in the reservoir. The ink, the socket and the ball are the main characters behind this. Developing a simple device into an invented complex machine. Doing the hard staff.

First Entry for Reading Process [Nothing Lasts Forever by Sidney Sheldon]




Part 1 

1. Reaction : I was really awestruck after discovering Paige Taylor's husband to be was Jason Curtis. I really thought Alfred Turner would be her future partner whom she had poured out all her dreams when they were young. Every chapter brings an exaggerating revelation making out rolling twists I could not have imagined. 
At the last Chapter, I felt there was no chance for Paige to win the case filed against her. She underwent euthanasia. The case was really down ended if were also to see it. No strong evidence. She even admitted that she injected the insulin to John Cronin's IV a cancer victim who suffered from tremendous heart cancer). However, Paige put the insulin to make him fall asleep - not to kill him. All the witnesses called to give their side were also against Paige. It was a triggering devastation on my side because I knew Paige was not a total liar - She's a very good surgeon.
The author greatly made a high-paced and snap-crackling kind of novel divulging the best shot of defense at the end of the story when the only and most awaited witness, Dr. Barker came out and gave his outraging stand to help Paige win the case. I thought he was going to put Paige down because he even hated her in the first place.
2. Question :  I wonder why the author did not make a story chapter for the three young doctors to discover each background and past experiences. He just wrote their stories but he did not make them learn their secrets. There must have a setting for the revelation. And I wonder why nobody witnessed for Paige and defended her from the case. It was only Paige who stood for herself and admitted what she did. 
3. Predict: I think that if John Cronin had immediately told Paige about the money and property she would not have been put into prison and suffering. 
And if Paige received the letter earlier, she would not have hoped for Alfred to come back.
4. Connect : Life being a woman doctor is not easy. I have taken note of it - "woman doctor". Most doctors are men and I found it interesting when the three young doctors were involved. I know how it feels to be trapped inside a hospital bearing countless conflict of schedules and shifting. I have also drowned amidst pressures in school and I felt like I can't make a track with my social life. It is somewhat obnoxiously taking a lady's nut in drudgery. I am choleric but I can manage to control my temper. 
The story of the tree doctors is a great realization for me and for other women to be off to discrimination and heartbreaks and on to bravery and new love.  They are examples for me to keep going no matter what.

 PART 2


If the main characters from two different novels could actually meet, who would you want to meet with whom? Why? What would their meeting be like? Use story details for support.

Euthanasia and the Deathly Hallows

T

he battle between good and evil was over. Paige Taylor's life had changed from a nightmare to a fulfilled dream. She got married with Jason Curtis and they lived happily like no one else could ever drag their fate down. Euthanasia. The operation Paige Taylor had done that put her into prison. It is a process of killing a suffered patient to inject a medicament to end terrible disease. By then, the bed-ridden patient would be lifeless.
Harry Potter got married with Jenny Wesley. They had conquered death and plucked the victory for the Hogwarts. Evil predicament had ended. They were now in peace. Now, Lord Voldemort was gone leaving a tremendous scar for revenge even until the world of humans. He left a remarkable destruction that no one had ever thought of him to come back. . . .

01:15 a.m. the telephone rang. Paige got into her knees as she woke up for her another shift. She hurried on as she picked up her coat and name tag and went to room 45. She almost bumped out as she barged in and took her utensils.
 “Where’s the patient?” Paige asked.
“He’s terribly out of control. We can’t see any fracture in checking his brain and temperature. There’s no problem, I’m afraid” Honey Taft said as she crammed. Paige was perplexed. “Ok let me do it.” She swiftly muttered.
As she got nearer, she removed the patient’s eyeglasses.
“Arrrrggghhh ! uh.. Please help me. I must not be here… my wife.” Harry Potter gasped. For the first time, Paige got her eye caught on Harry Potter’s scar as she tried to touch it with the scalpel. She felt like it was not a natural belonging to be inside an operating room. She felt as if there was a reverberating blast inside her to connect with a supernatural clasp to the patient.
“You’re not a human, are you?” Harry uttered as he was trying to catch his breath from pain. “Please help me out.”
Paige was awestruck. “What are you talking about? I’m a surgeon … and I operate diseases. I. . . I don’t understand. Who are you?” she asked as if she was in stupor.
HE is back!!”As Harry shouted his word, an iron thunder blurted outside the county hospital and a blazing snap dropped Paige and Harry out of their places. They were tumbling and shouting amidst an indescribable light inside a hole. By then, they vanished in a blink of an eye. As they transformed, a light dazzled before their countenance and swiftly blinded their pasts.From a magical and natural life, Paige and Harry met to overcome a demonic world. Paige, as a doctor did not expect something supernatural will happen. And Harry, as a person, not already a witch, has come to a new fight.These characters would join forces as they are going to fight against Lord Voldemort. Harry Potter’s bravery and Paige Taylor’s faith would unite their extraordinary possessions to have Jesus Christ as their weapon. From then on, they would become teen agers, winning souls for Christianity and save people from death.Being a surgeon is not always the best way to heal someone or help him live.  And having magic is not always needed to save humanity. IT is all about JESUS CHRIST – not to make bad people good but to make the dead live. And that is their role, to become transformed humans to introduce the word of God. N o Euthanasia, no surgery, no prisoner’s stone and deathly hallows.  Only the BIBLE.
