Abstract
The paper discusses Johannes Kepler, a key figure in the 17th century revolution of astronomy. The paper relates that his greatest accomplishment was the explanation of the laws of planetary motion which codified the rotation and planetary motion that was carefully researched and articulated by Tyco Brahe and Aristotle. The paper explains Kepler's treatment of force and his attempts to explain planetary motion as a result of the interaction between forces.
From the Paper
"Kepler was a German born Lutheran; he principally served as a mathematician, astronomer and astrologer. His breakthrough came as a researcher and assistant for Tycho Brahe, the court mathematician for the Emperor of Austria. Brahe's careful documentation of celestial motion provided the solid data by which Kepler was able to carefully create his law of planetary motion. The reason for Kepler's popularity even in today's society is that his Laws of Planetary Motion are so widely sweeping, it accurately predicted a model that would still be true even in today's age of scientific development."

"... note that the provision of range of motion (ROM) exercises early on by professional physical therapists can provide the patient with a wide variety of benefits relative to rate of recovery, degree of recovery, use of medication, use of appliances, overall comfort, and amount of time loss from work, and return to work. Given these numerous benefits, then, the provision of physical therapy can not only benefit the patient but, as well, the insurance company responsible for purchasing health care and the employer whose loss of revenues may adversely affect organization operation and financial standing of the firm. Beyond these, the hospital providing the physical therapy as well as benefits, in that ... "

"Perpetual Motion", 2005.
A summary of Graeme Gibson's book "Perpetual Motion".

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This is a short book summary and responses to environmental issue questions on Gibson's book "Perpetual Motion". "Perpetual Motion" tells us of the mindset of the Ontario settlers which was to tame rather than to find harmony with nature and of the consequences of ignoring the lessons of our natural world. It looks at how this novel is relevant today as we continue to value progress and civilization over nature despite polluted water, air and subsequent problems this arrogance causes humans.
From the Paper
"Perpetual Motion opens with settler Robert Fraser discovering a dinosaur skeleton buried in a field he is laboriously clearing of stumps. As the story leads up to the unearthing, there is a distinct sense of monotony to Fraser's life, of opportunities missed as he remembers "once he discovered that an elephant had left the previous day for Montreal. (Gibson 12)" This represents a turning point where monotony turns to desperation and Fraser's dreams result in his overtly wasteful and violent destruction of his natural surroundings. Fraser is locked in a battle of control with his land and the discovery impels an obsession to create a perpetual motion machine that will free him of manual labour. "

Abstract
This paper examines the nature of modernity in motion within the futurist movement at the turn of the 20th century. By analyzing "State of Mind: The Farewells" (1911) by Umberto Bocking and "Cosmic Flora" (1925) by Paul Klee, the paper shows how the works present both an organic and industrial representation of the fast movement of technological developments, which provide a distinct sense of motion through composition and objective technique. The paper concludes that, through their desire to capture the quickening tempo of advancing technology and rapid development, these painters took an abstract and progressive view towards motion in composition, in which modern motion became the axis of human progress.
From the Paper
"Another advocate and inspiration of the futurist movement was Paul Klee, as his compositions also provide a varied set of modern motion that provide a more organic variety of this style. In "Cosmic Flora" Klee shows a set of tiered expressions of the movement of life in 'cosmic' framework, very much like a set of parallel filmstrips in a moving picture. The different aspects of floral and landscape arrangements act as a similar stylistic that was to be used as a vehicle for motion in futurism. Other artists such as Egon Schiele and Franz Marc used this type of motion that provides a framework for motion in relation to space. Klee's attempt to show an abstract point of view of movement in a cosmic setting is also similar to Boccioni's "The City Rises", which provides the idea of modern urban people as a blurred and nearly incomprehensible set of objects that are restless and constantly active. With the 20th century technological advances making rapid progress, Klee is representative of a more organic type of futurism that expressed movement in the fluidity of modern motion (Klee 31), but without the industrial aspects of Boccioni's works. For Klee the major difference between his own organic motion and industrial motion are the only aspects of differentiation that do not bind him to the futurist movement of Boccioni's "State of Mind: The Farewells.""

Aristotle on Motion, 2002.
Explores Greek philosopher, Aristotle's theories on motion and how they compare with Newtonian science and quantum physics.

Abstract
Aristotle was a brilliant philosopher, but many of his scientific beliefs have been proven to be incorrect. One example is the fact that Aristotle believed that the earth was the center of the universe. Regarding Aristotle's views on the idea of motion, he was in conflict with another Greek thinker named Zeno who had attempted to analyze the motion of an object as a series of "still frames." Aristotle did not believe that motion could occur this way. This paper delves into Newtonian science and quantum physics and tries to understand Aristotle as a philosopher.

The Illusion of Motion, 2006.
A look at the philosophy of Zeno/Parmenides as it relates to the concept that motion is an illusion.
675 words (approx. 2.7 pages), 2 sources, $ 26.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains how the philosophy of Zeno/Parmenides relates to the scenario with the concept that motion is an illusion. Zeno, in support of Parmenides' teachings, created the paradox of dichotomy. The paper then discusses this paradox and how it contends that an object may be observed as traveling from point A to point B within a given time frame. However, Zeno concluded that on a scale of travel the object was consistently tasked with traveling to other points in between point A and point B. Each of these points, according to the philosopher, could be divided in half, which led to the object continuously having to pass through points of travel. Since the distances had the possibility of being divided without end, the process of travel was infinite, or never ending.

Abstract
This paper discusses how radio and the movies undoubtedly paved the way for television. Without them, people would not have been acclimated to the moving pictures, broadcast sound, and home entertainment that television offered. It explains how, without the radio serials and the news, there would have been little incentive for most people to go to the expense of purchasing a television and then getting into the habit of watching it regularly. Without radio and the movies to pave the way, television may not have succeeded.
From the Paper
"First came the movies. People across the world were first introduced to the magic of motion pictures in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, after the technology to produce them was developed by Thomas Edison. Up until this time, the only type of entertainment available to people that even came close to the type offered by the movies was live, on-stage productions. With the advent of motion pictures, people were able to see people perform the same piece on screen, over and over again. That was really the beauty of the movies--if people liked what they saw, they could see it again in exactly the same form as the first time they saw it."

From the Paper
" Motion picture special effects have been used since the beginning of the medium, with the early experiments of Georges M?li?s in France showing ways in which the new medium could be utilized to create images of things that seem to be happening but that in fact never happened at all. Special effects in recent years have taken a quantum leap forward with the advent of computer techniques to improve the use of established techniques of image processing and the use of traveling mattes and to initiate entirely new possibilities for such new effects as morphing and computer animation. Digital processing is clearly the wave of the future, and the wonders it has wrought already in films like Jurassic Park, Terminator 2, and True Lies are only the beginning. Computer animation techniques are being improved all the time, and the goal for many seems to be creating a film.."
