After Macbeth learns he has been named Thane of Cawdor he says in an aside:
If good, why do I yield to that suggestion
Whose horrid image doth unfix my hair
And make my seated heart knock at my ribs,
Against the use of nature? Present fears

My thought, whose murder yet is but fantastical,
Shakes so my single state of man that function
Is smother'd in surmise, and nothing is
But what is not.

Write an essay that argues whether or not the U.S. should allow fracking
Answer:
Fracking is and how it works, and looking at this will also allow us to be able to assess the most pressing environmental concerns and the controversies surrounding fracking.
fracking is the process of drilling down into the earth before a high-pressure water mixture is directed at the rock to release the gas inside. Water, sand and chemicals are injected into the rock at high pressure which allows the gas to flow out to the head of the well. The process can be carried out vertically or, more commonly, by drilling horizontally to the rock layer and can create new pathways to release gas or can be used to extend existing channels. The term fracking refers to how the rock is fractured apart by the high-pressure mixture.[1] In the UK, drilling is only at an exploratory phase, however, there are plans for this to intensify as shale gas reserves have been identified across the UK.
Impacts and Concerns
Having looked at what Fracking is, we will identify it’s impacts on the environment and its most pressing concerns.
The extraction of shale gas is a topic that is highly controversial in the United Kingdom, this is mainly because of the environmental concerns it raises. One of the major concerns is the water usage in the extraction, the volume of water that is needed. Vast amounts of water are required for the process and this must be transported to the fracking sites[2]. The water tends to be transported to the sites, which has its own environmental impacts, though some sites could use the local water resources and the volume of water that is required could place a strain on local water resources. In addition to the amounts of water, the water is mixed with chemicals, this mixture could escape and could spill or contaminate groundwater in the surrounding areas.
Advantages and Disadvantages of Fracking
The main advantages of fracking include, an increase in the production of natural gas, some could argue that this would ease the burden on finite resources such as fossil fuels, fracking would thus diversify our energy supplies. A further advantage is that this is a relatively clean energy source, providing environmental benefit. The gas produced emits less carbon per calorie of energy produced than other fossil fuels. It is easy to inject and it can be transported directly, shale gas requires very little infrastructure investment before it can be injected into the national gas grid, thus proving to be an economical benefit. Fracking is also the most natural way to pump gas from the ground. An abundant supply of natural gas makes prices relatively cheap to producers and consumers.
The disadvantages of fracking include, Risk of groundwater pollution, Risk of localised earthquakes (probably not a huge risk when well-regulated in the UK), Localised noise and traffic congestion, Loss of amenities, when fracking wells are sited in areas of natural beauty and national parks, A high water demand for the “process water” needed by the fracking technology used, potentially entailing additional stress on water supplies, Planning blight on local properties, and suffering by those unfortunate enough to live near a proposed site for a fracking well.
Explanation:
Imagine a world where [video games] suddenly stopped working. What would life look like after one day? What would it look like after one year
How do think it would affect people? Would it hurt the world? How would it help the world
Answer:
In a world where video games suddenly stopped working were to happen, it would look different after one day because people would be upset and try to find different things to do now that video games has come to an end. People are different so they may handle this differently from others. Some people might find this as an opportunity to start fresh and not be lazy anymore, while others may sulk and hide under their blankets crying and upset that their life is failing them.
After a year, people would be somewhat used to there being no video games. They would have found other interests and new types of jobs may be available. People would be slowly getting smarter now that they aren't thinking about video games any more. People may be very upset at first, but over time they will get over it and find other interests.
It would help the world by stopping laziness and peoples not so good brains. I know that sounds silly, but is it not true? The people in our world of video games have been getting less smart through out time, studies have shown that people are getting less and less smart every generation. But if we just take away video games, that would let people do, explore, adventure, and etc. and help fill them with different knowledge then what they would have with video games.

Do you think is it a coincidence that alphas wear gray and the hatchery is gray in Brave New World?
Answer:
It's not a coincidence
Explanation:
The hatchery is the place where human reproduction takes place in "Brave New World." Inside the incubator, embryos are kept inside machines that provide them with the necessary substances for babies to develop and grow. Babies will occupy different social classes within the "Brave NBew World" society and the substances that each embryo receives, have the necessary resources for a member of each class. Alphas make up the highest and most privileged class and children in this class use the color gray, the same color as the hatchery. This is not a mere coincidence, but it represents superiority. The incubator is the most superior system of that society, whereas alphas are the superior individuals within the same society.
"Brave New World" is a book written by Aldous Huxley. In this book we are introduced to a futuristic and modern society, which re-presents the issues of individuality, emotions and relationships in a completely different way than we are used to. These elements that are inert to human beings have been completely dominated by technological advancement and have impacting consequences for humanity.

One of my best friends is actually my neighbor! We always go over to each other's houses. Lately, because of the virus, we haven't been able to see each other as much, though. We figured out we could call each other, instead!
I have a couple pets... I have one named Kimmie. She's small and adorable omg. Then I have one named Mr.Mew. He's fat... and eats a lot of cat food... all..the...time. I also have another cat named Peaches. We found her outside our house. So heres the backstory behind all my cats:
Kimmie: My mom was at her nail salon thing, getting her nails done. And we went outside and we found a cat. Took her home, and she was ours.
Mr.Mew: Just bought him from somebody, nothing special.
Peaches: I was sitting outside with my sister, and she walked up to me and rubbed up on me. Loved playing with pinecones. We left her outside for like a week and a half. One morning I woke up and she was sitting under a trailer, and it was pouring outside. And when I say pouring.. I mean POURING...- and so I put a blanket down and some food and water. She layed on the blanket and slept, ate some food. Shortly after, my family was outside on the front porch, and Peaches was hanging around outside, ran across the road and was 0.5 centimeters away from getting hit by a car. Our neighbors tried to take her, so we took her instead. Now she's our cat.
I also have a cat and dog at my fathers house. The cats name is Alfured, originated from the movie Batman. And the other is Gracie Lou. She's a tiny Maltipoo.

Wolves are exceptional pack hunters. This is why they are able to take down large prey such as moose or deer by working together as a seamless team. Wolf pups as young as eight months old begin helping on the hunt. Wolves can reach speeds of up to 40 miles per hour when chasing prey, and their thick, double-coated fur enables them to keep warm in even the coldest arctic temperatures. Their large, powerful paws can reach up to 5 inches across and help to propel them quickly across the snow.
Read the excerpt from the article "The Necessity of Hybrids":
Grolar bears and pizzlies are the result of crossing polar bears and grizzly bears. These hybrids were first seen in zoos, as the bears' natural habitats did not normally overlap. Recently, these hybrids have started appearing in the wild. Due to climate change, the bears' once-separate habitats are beginning to overlap. Bigger and more aggressive than their parents, grolar bears and pizzlies could pose a risk to natural habitats and humans.
Wolfdogs are, as their name suggests, the result of crossing a wolf with a domestic dog. Bred for the pet trade, these hybrids do not often happen in the wild. Wolfdogs do not make good pets, however, as they can be destructive and aggressive. Many states have outlawed keeping wolfdogs because they can pose a danger to people.

Can anyone list pros and cons of Harper Lee (white woman) writing To Kill a Mockingbird (about racism)?
Any other thoughts?
Answer and Explanation:
As you may already know "To Kill a Mockingbird" is a book written by Harper Lee, which portrays the injustices and violence that the black population faces in American society, by presenting a black man who has been accused, tried, convicted and executed for violating a white woman. However, this man was innocent and the woman is lying.
Harper Lee was a white woman, she did not live experiences as a black person and for that reason, she only knew the racism and discrimination that blacks went through in a superficial way, since she never went through it. This can be a disadvantage in the book, as it does not present the real life of blacks in American society. In addition, it allows the book to present a "white savior" as it promotes a great protagonism in Atticus, a white man who becomes the lawyer of the accused young black man, instead of promoting the protagonism in the black man.
On the other hand, as a white woman, Harper Lee can present the hypocrisy of white society and point out the mistakes that white citizens make in judging black people based on racist and lying thoughts. This is an advantage, as Lee calls the attention of his own ethnicity, to show that prejudice kills innocent people.
