Abstract
This paper explains that Daniel Bernoulli used his analytical skills across a broad range of scientific disciplines including probability, hydrodynamics, the flow of blood and blood pressure and Riccati's differential equations. The author points out that Daniel Bernoulli improved mathematical physics with his recognition of many of Newton's theories and his utilization of the more powerful calculus of Leibniz. The paper relates that Bernoulli's mathematical explanation of the behavior of gas led to Boyle's law.

From the Paper
"Aerodynamics is a subdivision of fluid mechanics that deals with the motion of air and other gaseous fluids, and with the forces acting on bodies in motion relative to such fluids. Some of the examples of aerodynamic actions are: the movement of an aircraft through the air, the wind forces applied on a structure and the working of a windmill. Daniel Bernoulli's principle is the main law dictating the motion of fluids, which links an increase in flow velocity to a decrease in pressure. For instance, for the same quantity of air at the entry to the venturi tube below to flow through the restriction in the middle, the air must accelerate."

Abstract
This paper discusses Daniel and the book of Daniel in the Bible, touching on various incidents in the book, such as the interpretation of the king's dreams, the handwriting on the wall, and the lion's den.

From the Paper
"The Bible relates the history of many great men and women of God but none with more diverse talents than Daniel, whose life is a model of faith and whose book in the Bible is compelling and strategic. According to the scriptures, Daniel was a prophet, an interpreter of dreams, an interpreter of unknown writing, a scientist, a lion tamer, an intercessor and even-according to Daniel, a president. Daniel's life was an exemplary one. As a youth he pledged himself..."

Abstract
In this article, the writer examines the books of Zechariah, Daniel, and Isaiah. Bullock's evaluation of Zechariah is summarized, and in Daniel, Chapters 2-7 are delineated and compared with the rest of the book. In Isaiah, the purpose and theology of the book is described, referencing Bullock.

From the Paper
"Bullock starts out his analysis of the book of Zechariah by identifying the man Zechariah in his period and providing some historical background on the book. He then examines the book's structure pointing out that it is divided into two parts and has a matching chiastic structure in both parts. Bullock sees this structure as no more than a literary similarity however and does not engage a discussion about any profound meaning implied by it beyond the establishment of an orderly structure. Bullock spends ..."

Abstract
The paper relates that Daniel Ortega, current president of Nicaragua, waited 17 years to regain his presidency. The paper discusses how in the meantime, he was accused of raping his stepdaughter for 10 years and frittering away the socialistic ideals he had as a revolutionary that overthrew the fascist government before his first presidency. The paper posits that it seems he has now come full circle.

From the Paper
"Jose Daniel Ortega Saavedra is the current President of Nicaragua. Mr. Ortega hailed from a politically active background: his parents, Daniel Ortega and Lidia Saavedra, opposed the 40-year Anastasio Somoza regime in Nicaragua, which had his mother arrested for possessing "love letters" which the police accused her of using as underground coded political missives (Columbia, 2008). As a university student in 1963, Ortega joined the clandestine Sandinista National Liberation Front, a Marxist guerrilla coalition that opposed the..."

Abstract
This paper discusses the book, "A Mathematician Reads the Newspaper" written by John Allen Paulos. The paper examines how Paulos expands his view of number and mathematics to show how much information numbers can convey and how mathematics can illuminate virtually any subject if properly applied. Paulos discusses these issues by dividing his analysis into categories, beginning with politics and the economy and then continuing through business issues, lifestyle news, science and medicine, and finally, a section on stories that may seem very far from mathematics on food, books, sports, and obituaries. The paper explains that the analysis by Paulos is practical in orientation, for he does not speak in generalities, but rather discusses specific stories and illustrates what mathematics can reveal about them.

From the Paper
"While mathematics may be the focus, Paulos also shows how logic is often suspended by readers and how they may accept conventional wisdom and so judge what they read uncritically, when in fact they would be more correct to raise questions and seek deeper answers. One aspect of our misunderstanding comes from the way newspaper writers misuse numbers, but readers also misuse numbers. Paulos cite the anchoring effect under which when given an erroneous number and asked to estimate the correct number, individuals moved in the right direction but not by very much. They would become anchored to the original number and be reluctant to move too far form it (17-18). Paulos finds ways in which seemingly simple facts may not be facts at all, such as the circulation numbers of newspapers, given as if the number indicate a daily truth."

Abstract
C.S. Lewis, in "English Literature in the Sixteenth Century", dismissed Daniel's "Delia" on the grounds that: "It offers no ideas, no psychology, and of course no story: it is simply a masterpiece of phrasing and melody" (Lewis 491). Samuel Daniel's sonnet sequence, "Delia" (1592), is undeniably remarkable for its phrasing and melody. However, one can take issue with Lewis' depiction of Daniel's achievement. This essay will argue that, contrary to Lewis' statement, Daniel's "Delia" reveals a complex level of interlocking patterns of thematic ideas and imagery. One cannot assert broad generalizations about a poet's entire work, much less the poetic production of an entire era, from the textual analysis of a single work. Includes annotated bibliography.

Abstract
E.L. Doctorow has always been a writer who juxtaposes fictional events with historical ones. "The Book of Daniel" is no exception. While the character of Daniel is fictional, the events depicted--a thinly disguised version of the Julius and Ethel Rosenberg trial, the communist scare fanned by Senator McCarthy, the Viet Nam War--are all rooted in history. Daniel's journey then is both historical and personal, ricocheting between the past and the present as he attempts to find meaning in the events of his own life and those of his culture. "The Book of Daniel" is like its Biblical counterpart, part lamentation and part exhortation. History is a catalogue of a "time of trouble" in which some figures of the past will awake to 'everlasting contempt' while others turn to righteousness. Daniel struggles with both, an inherited past and an uncertain future. In the end, however, he finds his way.

Abstract
The paper examines the book of Daniel, and explains how the Lord's power is exhibited as He gives awesome insight into the future, protects His followers in fatal situations, and illustrates the end of time. The paper discusses the basic storyline and describes the various miracles and events witnessed and lived through by Daniel and his friends. The paper concludes that the book of Daniel offers insight to questions of omnipotence and the final judgment. The author adds that in his /her opinion, it is easier to believe in a higher being than existing on earth questioning life and its purpose.

From the Paper
"The definition for all-powerful is possessing unlimited authority or power. Other words used to define all-powerful include: omnipotent, invincible, supreme, and almighty. The Lord of the Jewish and Christian faith uses these words in reference to their God. The Hebrew Bible contains writings of a prophet during the Babylonian exile. "The God of Daniel is the omnipotent Lord who controls history, setting up and removing earthly rulers and empires, but also rescuing his people from the power of those kings and teaching them the limits of their sovereignty. (Davies 565)" In the book of Daniel, the Lord's power is exhibited as he gives awesome insight into the future (via visions/interpretations), protects his followers in fatal situations, and illustrates the end of time."

Abstract
This paper discusses the importance of Samuel Daniel's "Delia" through its structure and the creation of the modern sonnet. The author explores Daniel's influences including Sir Philip Sidney and Shakespeare, and his use of the Petrarchan writing mechanisms. Further this paper examines the significance of the sonnet to the English Renaissance and European poetry.

From the paper:

"Samuel Daniel's Delia presents to the modern reader a nearly perfect mechanism through which to contemplate the structure of the sonnet in English as it first came to be incorporated into the common practice of this language. His use of Petrarchan forms and metrical traditions demonstrates that the sonnet when it first entered into wide use in the Renaissance was indeed a direct carry-over from the Italian, a mimicking by English writers of the Italianate structure of neoclassicism, a harkening back to Rome and so to Athens."

Abstract
This paper discusses the Prophet Daniel's vision of 70 Weeks through interpretations, theories, views, and fulfillments, including the references to Christ and the tribulations that were experienced. With all of the critical prophecies credited to him, the paper provides insights into who Daniel was and why he felt he needed to share his wisdom. The concern for historians regarding Daniel's work revolves around the fact that there are numerous problems confirming or even explaining some of the prophetical meanings of his passages.

From the Paper
"The name Daniel in Hebrew means God is my Judge. Daniel was one of the most important of the prophets from the Old Testament. But his prophecies also carried over into the New Testament since much of the prophecy done by Daniel correspond with the apostle John and his work in the Book of Revelation. Daniel's acclaim and importance to the ancient Christian movement can be demonstrated by the fact that Jesus specifically referred to events from the Book of Daniel that were expected to happen prior to His return. Modern day religious scholars believe that Daniel was born a noble and maybe even an actual member of the royal family of Judah. "Daniel thereafter held a very high position in the government for about 70 years, the actual ruler of what is modern-day Iraq, right until his famous "handwriting on the wall" interpretation on the night before the fall of the Babylonian kingdom to Darius the Mede (Daniel 5:1-29)." (KeyWay, 2004)"
