(2010-07-14)Although there has been a large focus on dark tourism in recent times, there is still limited information on the motivation of consumption and the type of experience that is derived from the visit to a dark tourism site. ...
-
(2010-07-14)When studying the expansion of the universe, a significant problem is measuring the red shifts of stellar absorption lines with sufficiently high accuracy; this requires extremely accurate reference frequencies for ...
-
(2010-07-14)Many scholars have claimed that humor is not powerful enough to bring about social change. However, this study argues that humor is a pervasive form of critique used in America, and is worthy of being examined. With the ...
-
(2011-08-08)In the past two decades, scientific evidence has predicted a significant change in the earth’s climatic atmosphere. Although there are many studies that demonstrate changes in the atmospheric temperatures, there are few ...
