Superpowers have always been the most energetic products of proactive civilizations that strive to influence vast regions of the world - positively in their era of ascendance and negatively when they are on the downward slope. An aging civilization either leads to a period of anarchy or gives way to the meteoric rise of another powerful civilization. Modern sages have been warning of a major polar shift that may cost the world not only its present day civilization but more importantly what is likely to throw the whole human race into massive sociopolitical turmoil. The blasphemous Danish cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad have unwittingly raised the issue of how to protect this civilization. Here is the answer. This exhaustive analysis of a period of about six months covering events preceding the commissioning of the Danish cartoons offers a view from a vantage point visited by few modern thinkers.
Coagulation is a widely employed technique for removing suspended particles from water and wastewater, and recently, it has gotten attention as a popular method for the removal of microplastics (MPs). Studies on coagulation-based removal of MPs are still in their infancy, and few findings are available about this treatment approach, its mechanism, and removal efficiency. Given these gaps, this study was designed to comprehensively investigate recent advances in the removal of MPs via coagulation. The influence of various experimental factors such as coagulant type, dose of the coagulant, pH of the solution, and shape of the MPs are critically reviewed. The study findings showed that optimizi...

The sun shines brighter than ever this time of July. The strong breeze awakes me. "Yes. Yes. A million times yes," I say sarcastically. I don't know if I meant it or if I was still in shock, but this is all happening too fast. He takes my hands in his. "I promise I will make you the happiest woman in the world because you have made me the happiest man in the world." "Uh-huh." I nod. He gets up and kisses me.
Dare to Struggle and How to Save a Life is a book of poems originally written by a young man about his high school life and the times he spent after that as a coach to young athletes. Collected and published here years later, these poems and the writing about the poems reveal an honesty and gentle-heartedness that young and old can appreciate. Wild flowers, sunbeams, dreams, tenderness—Ali wrote about these things, but most of all, Ali was writing about trouble. Many teenagers, parents, friends, and teachers today know about trouble. Weaving throughout the writing is Ali's hope and optimism, despite the pain and loss he saw around him. If the purpose of poetry is to reach out to other people and touch their hearts, Ali has done that.
