Formaldehyde

Formaldehyde Formaldehyde is a colorless, flammable gas at room temperature. It has a pungent, distinct odor and may cause a burning sensation to the eyes, nose, and lungs at high concentrations. Formaldehyde is also known as methanal, methylene oxide, oxymethylene, methylaldehyde, and oxomethane. Formaldehyde can react with many other chemicals, and it will break down into methanol (wood alcohol) and carbon monoxide at very high temperatures. Formaldehyde is naturally produced in very small amounts in our bodies as a part of our normal, everyday metabolism and causes us no harm. It can also be found in the air that we breathe at home and at work, in the food we eat, and in some products that we put on our skin. A major source of formaldehyde that we breathe every day is found in smog in the lower atmosphere. Automobile exhaust from cars without catalytic converters or those using oxygenated ...

CRITISIM ABOUT IMF AND WORLD BANK

influencial countries like China and USA. This essay is about criticism to IMF and World Bank. Critics of the World Bank and the IMF are concerned about the ‘conditionalities’ imposed on borrower countries.

The author claims that when people are on the internet they get to present themselves as they want to be by editing and deleteing while writing a text.

A book worth reading A year ago I managed to find time to read an extremely profound book entitled The Fault in Our Stars. This tragic, yet realistic drama was written by John Green, a famous author of young-adult fiction, and it provides a valuable insight into the life of children fighting with cancer. The Fault in Our Stars is about a teenage girl Hazel, who has stage 4 thyroid cancer. Hazel’s daily routine contains taking meds, reading books and taking part of the support group meetings for cancer- fighters. In the support group she meets an extraordinarily handsome boy Augustus, who, full of metaphores and mystery, catches Hazel’s attention immediately. As the plot evolves, these

He gets obsessed of meeting his wife again. During the search of his wife, he meets Mikhail. The author learns the meaning of love, the power of destiny and what it means to follow your heart. During his journey, he is a completely different man. Finally he meets his wife, but everything has changed. I really enjoyed reading this book, because it was really instructive. The story was full of lessons and ethical matters to use in life. I am completely in love with the author, because he doesn't just tell the story, but keeps you thinking about it, and speaks with the readers through the words.

Book report

London. It almost works out to start a new life in London with Norah, but then comes Mrs.Brown, who says that Harry had run away from the school and wants to see his father. Joe goes back to home and finds out that he cant live without Harry, who he discovers, is a lot like Joe himself and Barbara, who has been and always will be his most loved one. Joe discovers that it is hurting others that hurts and they reconcile with Susan. The author is really good at descriptions ­there are just wonderful descriptions in the book. Always when Joe meets someone new or an old friend then the author describes him/her like he/she was the most important one and I like that every little detail counts. I love how the author has made out Barbara´s character ­ it is seen clearly how lovely and cute she is. I would recommend this book to everyone who likes to read a good novel without guessing at the beginning how the book is going to end

My analysis of the article “ Why Ebola is so dangerous”

Signs and symptoms typically start between two days and three weeks after contracting the virus, as a fever, sore throat, muscle pain and headaches. Then, vomiting, diarrhea and rash usually follow, along with decreased function of the liver and kidneys. At this time, generally, some people begin to bleed both internally and externally. Death, if it occurs, follows typically six to sixteen days after symptoms appear and is often due to low blood pressure from fluid loss. The author of the article does not take sides. He is just describing the situation and does not give his own opinions. He quotes people who know more about Ebola and paraphrases their opinions. The aim of an article is to inform people of Ebola and make them think that it is not just a disease it is very dangerous disease because of how easily it spreads. The article "Why Ebola is so dangerous" is very current right now because the disease

In A Modest Proposal Swift finds out a solution to stop the famine. The author cites infants' breeding as an example for improving the economical conditions, finding the proposal "a fair, cheap and easy method of making these children sound and useful members of the common-wealth" (52). He says that because many women in those times had no any material capabilities to raise children and provide for them. The proposal, in his opinion, will make the babies "beneficial to the public" and "prevent those voluntary abortions, and that horrid practice of women murdering their

One of the main problems is the chemical pollution which is caused by natural or man- made halogenated compounds, pesticides, dioxins, chlorinated organic materieals and so on. These compounds are causing deformage in marine animals and are storaged in their fatty tissues. They have also been found in organisms throughout the world oceans because they are dispersed quickly by winds and currents.

Are you experienced- book review

Are you experienced? By William Sutcliffe Have you ever thought about backpackers and what makes them go to such a nerve-racking trip? Or do they regret leaving modern life behind and packing it up to find themselves in 3 rd world countries? I had thought about it before, however newer as thoroughly as William Sutcliffes novel made me think. The author writes about the struggles and triumphs in adjusting to major environmental changes and issues with other travellers that appear in every other backpackers journey. The book is entertaining though it’s full of problems that the 3 rd world has and it highlights them in almost unnoticeable ways. “Are you experienced “ draws attention to food and water problems that are common in India. There were many detailed descriptions of diseases and parasites, they were rather disgusting

The Matlock Paper Book Review

My only criticism on the book would be same as I mentioned before, there were very long descriptions and quite a few lines about the persons past everytime a new character came into, this doesn´t look too interesting for me, I want the plot already to move on! All in all, if you´re a fan of thriller books, you´ll propably like this one also but I think that there are better books out there, propably even from the same author. Unfortunately I haven´t read other books that author has to offer, but I´m almost sure that I´ll read another book of his.

Snakes & Earrings

Like that was enough for her.. Lui decides to have a dragon and kirin tattoo on her back. With going to Shiba-San, she gets to know things like body modification, sado- masochism, possession and nihilism, because she pays for his services through sexual favors and that's where the affair starts. Lui finds herself unable to choose between a man who claims to love her enough to kill for her and one who claims to love her, but feels sadistic temptation to kill her. My opinion of what author tries to say: Nobody can't tell what You should like and dislike Everybody changes, but are still able to fit in We all have bats in our belfry There are lots of things in the world that most of the people have never seen Author tries to present a different world (Hitomi has stretched her ears, so she knows about alternative/punk/goth etc. kind of stuff) The movie trailer Trailer of the movie can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63QcVOWFYnw&fea

"The horse whisperer" raamatu kokkuvõte

Will they ever to be able to trust each other? At first she is sure that she is never going to ride but after trying with other horses Grace thoughts that she is ready to ride Pilgrim. But that is not so easy. The horse still doesn't let Grace near himself. But in the end the horse accepts and she can ride her loved horse again. I actually did not notice a hidden message in the book or maybe I just did not understand it. Maybe the author wanted to say that nothing would go as people expect and that anything can happen.
