The Unity Of The Mind And Body
Number of words: 1781 | Number of pages: 7....

What is reality?
Well, there are many explanations and theories about this, but I based mine on
what I can observe and how I perceive things as a whole. Reality, as we know it
seems to be made up of various dimensions. Most people will say reality is three
dimensional, but it's really more than that. Time is often considered a fourth
dimension, and some people say that there are at least eight known dimensions,
possibly as many as thirty. However, it will be easier to start with dimensions
from the ground up. Let us start with zero dimensions. A zero dimensional
reality is a point. It does .....

They did not bathe, but instead sat in sweat houses until they sweat the smell off and then ran out and jumped in a cold stream (Chilly Willy).

This had a roof of 5 inches thick and was in the center of the village.

Acient Mathematics
Number of words: 214 | Number of pages: 1.... concepts such as axioms or proofs.
The earliest Egyptian texts, composed about 1800 BC, reveal a
decimal numeration system with separate symbols for the successive powers
of 10 (1, 10, 100, and so forth), just as in the system used by the Romans.
Numbers were represented by writing down the symbol for 1, 10, 100, and so
on as many times as the unit was in a given number. For example, the symbol
for 1 was written five times to represent the number 5, the symbol for 10
was written six times to represent the number 60, and the symbol for 100
was written three times to represent the number 300. Together, these
symbols represented the .....

Clipper Ships
Number of words: 286 | Number of pages: 2.... rig.
The origin of the clipper is debatable. Some believe that it was
descended from the French frigate of the late 1700's. Other's believe that
it originated from the early Baltimore clipper's. It is highly probable
that it was designed by many ship builders who combined their experience.
The first American clippers like the Rainbow and the Sea Witch, were
built in New York for tea trades to China. A few years later, the
California Gold Rush was the major concern of such ships. One of the
fastest clipper was the Flying Cloud, which, on her maiden voyage, was the
first ship to sail from New York, around the Cape Horn, .....

Number of words: 930 | Number of pages: 4.... not have such high standards after all.
The physical interiors are just as different as their appointed names. Mrs Vyse’s flat is not described in too much detail, but just enough so that the reader has a clear picture of it in our minds. As mentioned above, the flat is proved not to have such high standards when Mrs Honeychurch reveals that there is a “thick layer of flue under the beds.” It is not a very pleasant place, as we see when “darkness enveloped the flat.” By contrast, there is so much light at Windy Corner that the curtains “had been pulled to meet” in order to protect the fu .....
