Problem debates concerned with philosophical questions The questions is: Is sth. RIGHT or WRONG? You MUST NOT put forward a practical case! 2.) Follow the general structure: 1.) 2.) 3.) Content In your argumentation say: 1.) 2.) 3.) “Because” is one of the most important words in a debate! Structure 1.) 2.) 3.) 1st Prop 1.) 2.) 3.) 1st Opp You may oppose… - the problem (there is no problem at all, the status quo is fine) - the policy (the case will not have the desired effect and does harm) - both the problem and the policy.

You may… - give a “Split speech” (first rebuttal and then own speech); costs time and you are usually in a rush to get your speech through in 5 min. 2nd Prop and Opp – 1st Speaker 1.) 2.) 3.) 2nd Prop and Opp – 2nd Speaker 1.) 2.) 3.) 4.) 2nd Prop – 2nd speaker: You may (but need not) bring new points – only minor points, not substantial ones. UTA Flight 772 Crash Information and Memorial Construction Photos. A friend told me to go to a certain latitude and longitude on Google Maps.

UTA Flight 772 Crash Information and Memorial Construction Photos

When I noticed it seemed to be in the middle of an African desert, I thought he was just sending nonsense. But when I zoomed in, my mind was blown. I noticed a tiny icon that looked like an airplane. So I did some more research and discovered there’s an incredibly tragic and beautiful story behind it. Here it is, from start to finish. UTA Flight 772 was a scheduled flight operating from Brazzaville in the Republic of Congo to Paris CDG airport in France. This is the flight path. Eighteen years later, families of the victims gathered at the crash site to build a memorial.

Due to the remoteness of the location, pieces of the wreckage could still be found at the site. The memorial was created by Les Familles de l’Attentat du DC-10 d’UTA, an association of the victims’ families along with the help of local inhabitants. The memorial was built mostly by hand and uses dark stones to create a 200-foot diameter circle. Dell XPS 15 L502x: Now with Sandy Bridge. Battery Life: Better than the L501x As mentioned earlier, Dell shipped us a 90Wh (the website states 92Wh, but our battery rates itself at 90Wh) battery for this review.

Dell XPS 15 L502x: Now with Sandy Bridge

However, we still have one of their 56Wh batteries from the previous XPS models available, so we tested both configurations. With the move from dual-core Arrandale to quad-core Sandy Bridge, plus a faster GT 540M GPU and HD 3000 IGP, we weren’t sure what would happen to battery life. It turns out that even sticking with the 6-cell battery, the L502x surpasses the L501x in all three of our battery life metrics. That’s good, because the large bump on the bottom of the laptop that the 9-cell upgrade brings into play is a real drawback.

We’ve noted in the past that Sandy Bridge really improved H.264 playback power/battery requirements, and that shows up in our charts again. Battery life in general isn’t class leading for the XPS 15, but it’s good enough to satisfy most mobile users. Research » Blog Archive. Two Hundred Years of Surgery. Surgery is a profession defined by its authority to cure by means of bodily invasion.

Two Hundred Years of Surgery

The brutality and risks of opening a living person's body have long been apparent, the benefits only slowly and haltingly worked out. Nonetheless, over the past two centuries, surgery has become radically more effective, and its violence substantially reduced — changes that have proved central to the development of mankind's abilities to heal the sick. Surgery before the Advent of Anesthesia The first volume of the New England Journal of Medicine and Surgery, and the Collateral Branches of Science, published in 1812, gives a sense of the constraints faced by surgeons, and the mettle required of patients, in the era before anesthesia and antisepsis. The eye-lids were separated by the thumb and finger of the left hand, and then, a broad cornea knife was pushed through the cornea at the outer angle of the eye, till its point approached the opposite side of the cornea. They were also often illusory.
