Finally, the evening came. It was a chilly, dark night in November. I invited my nine friends over for dinner to dine with a famous Mayan scholar, Ixchel. She is an extraterrestrial human and plans to return to her home planet in a few days, but first, she will share her findings with the group over dinner. I chose to plan an elaborate dinner for such a special occasion. I hired a chef to prepare a five course meal. For the first course there is grilled shrimp cocktail, second course is a light…

The Radiological Dispersion Device A Radiological Dispersion Device (RDD) is a combination of conventional explosives (dynamite) and radioactive components (The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 2014). A RDD is any device that causes the resolute diffusion of radioactive material without a nuclear detonation (REMM, 2016).Terrorist who have utilized RDDs have labeled them as dirty bombs (Ready, 2016).

Throughout the Cold War and into modern times, media outlets popularized the concept of the fallout shelter. The appeal to these structures lies in their absurdity; some think only the insane would spend the time, money, and effort to hide underground and (possibly) survive a nuclear attack. Yet, the public’s fascination with these shelters has increased over the years. Video games, such as those in the Fallout franchise, attract players by the millions who wish to experience how living in a…

This song is about J.Cole sharing his experiences with fame and that he had to reevaluate the things he thought would make him happy. J. Cole also spoke about his troubled childhood struggles and how he is still trying to cope with it. He spoke about the misconception that many people have, which is…

Love. So complicated, yet so simple. It is as rudimentary as breathing, sleeping, and eating. But, why is it so overpowering? Why is it that when I am engulfed in its sweet fluorescent ocean that I can’t sleep. I can’t eat. I can hardly breath without thinking about him. It seems silly right? To let an emotion take over my logical thought process. How is it that I can be so on course, so on track, but suddenly I see Mr. Right and I am fleeing in every direction like a madman? Unfortunately, as…

PS3 vs. PS4: A New Gaming Device What are the differences between PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 and which is better? Sony is slowly adding PS2 and PS3 games for purchase to play on PS4. I believe that PS3 is better because of its backwards compatibility. The main reason I think PS3 is better is because the more reliable and free backward compatibility, unlike the PS4 in which a purchase is necessary.

Metal Gear Survive replaces stealth with survival in what is the first Metal Gear game without the involvement of director Hideo Kojima. Although Survive is the first entry in the Metal Gear series without Kojima’s influence, it isn’t the first spin-off. Released only five years ago on the PS3, XBox 360 and PC; Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance took the Metal Gear series in a completely different direction. Replacing stealth with hack and slash action mayhem, surprisingly, Rising worked. The…
