Vegetarians by Shayla Thacker

100 Million pigs killed in 2005. Are you a part of it? Well you are if you eat pork chops, bacon and ribs. Vegetarians are not a part of this massacre, vegetarians do not eat meat. Most vegetarians think killing animals is wrong so they simply just don't eat it. |
| |  | | Visit the McDonald Observatory Web Site | | Whether you're eight or 80, it's virtually impossible to leave the McDonald Observatory without a newfound awe and excitement about the universe that surrounds us. You never know-today's enthusiastic young stargazer may turn into tomorrow's space shuttle captain. "I think everyone has an interest in the stars, and we either feed it or outgrow it," says Williams. Needless to say, feeding that passion is what the observatory just happens to do best. |

| | The Mind of Leonardo (The Universal Genius at Work) | | Although Leonardo is commonly known as a “universal genius”, the exhibitions dedicated to him have almost always focused on some specific area of his activity: art, anatomy, technology, studies on water, on flight, and so on.
The Mind of Leonardo offers its visitors a different point of view, inviting them to explore the genius’ very mode of thinking and his unitary conception of knowledge as the effort to assimilate, through bold theoretical syntheses and inventive experiments, the laws that govern all of the wondrous operations of man and nature.
This approach gives rise to a different image, one that helps to dissolve the aura of mystery in which the myth of Leonardo has often been shrouded: a mind tenaciously endeavoring to decipher the rational processes that animate the phenomena of the physical world as well as the “motions of thought”, driven by the desire to achieve a perfect imitation of nature in drawing and painting.
