Ludwig van Beethoven is one of the most important people in all of classical music. His influence made an impression on nearly every composer who lived after him. He should be one of the greatest of all time.

He was born in 1770 in Germany. His grandpa and dad were professional singers, so his whole family was musicians. He started learning the piano when he was around 4 years old, who was taught by his dad. It was one of his hobbies, and got good quickly. Later on he became an organist, and also played the viola for an . He loved playing it, and thrived in the musical environment. Because of his piano playing skills, Beethoven was surrounded by people and interested Viennese social elite from early on in his career, which included most of the famous musicians of that time.

However, in his late 20s, he started to lose his hearing, and experienced a loud ringing in his ears. Since Beethoven lived for music, his deafness devastated him a lot. He even thought a lot about suicide. After a lot of internal struggle, he decided it was worth it to keep going. When he was 30, he premiered Septet, one of his most popular pieces in his lifetime. He was now starting to become well known as a composer, not just a pianist.

Beethoven became more grumpy and irritable and started dressing untidily. He also became ruder towards other people and would start to care less and less about his appearance. In 1809 Beethoven a lifetime annuity, but it was only only if he stayed in Vienna, so he agreed and settled there for the rest of his life. But payments made his income not stable. He became very sick during the last few years of his life, and began to sketch out a Tenth Symphony while on his deathbed, but he never got to complete it.

If we are ever going to settle down on Mars, we might have to because a little less human. Missions to Mars, which are scheduled to start in 2030, will be hard on astronauts. It will expose them to high radiation loads, bone-wasting microgravity, and other hazards, and it’s for several years at a time. They should be able to make it back with good conditions, agency officials said.

It might be different if some people don’t come back to Earth, though. If they want to stay safe and healthy while living permanently on Mars (or any other planet outside of Earth), we might have to tweak our DNA. Genetic engineering and other advanced technologies may need to be used if people want to stay on Mars. If they are living on Mars, these technologies will be necessary if they want to survive.

Genetic enhancement might not be futuristic for long. Scientists have already inserted genes from tardigrades into human cells. The engineered cells showed a greater resistance to radiation than their normal ones. Space agencies already take measures to protect their astronauts, by spacecraft shielding and using many types of medicines. So, it’s not a huge step to consider protecting them physically as well.

Using these technologies might also someday help astronauts to go farther than Mars, to an even more dangerous place. An example is, a journey to Europa is not currently possible. It is very cold, and it lies in the middle of Jupiter’s radiation belts. If they ever get there, their body would almost be completely fried because of the radiation, which would mean death unless they come up with some type of shield to protect them. It is possible, though, because there might have been life on Mars before.

Tech could hurt the fight against Coronavirus if we’re not careful. Here are the four questions we have to ask ourselves. Are you listening to experts and vulnerable communities? Can you join existing efforts? Can your technology do what you say it’s going to do? How does your technology shift power?

The first question is “Are you listening to experts and vulnerable communities?” It is about understanding the social context, about knowing what is helpful or harmful. You have to find credible or reliable sources. The second question, “Can you join existing efforts?”, is about searching for a team that can answer all three of these questions. You also have to find a project that involves experts, community involvement, and with ethical frameworks in place.

The third question is “Can your technology do what you say it’s going to do?” This is about if your solution improves the real world, or if it only works in some environments. You have to complete and test your work in a certain timeframe, and you will also need all the resources to finish your project, or you will need to abandon it. The last question is, “How does your technology shift power?” You have to consider who your projects shifts power from, and to. You have to think about who will have access to your technology and if it helps vulnerable communities and those who are most in need.

In the article, “Gigantic new 3D map traces every neuron in a tiny mouse brain,” it talks about seeing every brain cell in mice. Over the years, researchers at the Allen Institute for Brain Science have been recording every brain cell and connections between the neurons in mice. There has been a lot of progress since the map they released back in 2016. The complete map that was published on May 7, 2020 includes about 100 million brain cells. The project is mostly aiming to create a mouse brain that all researchers working on mice can use as a reference.

In the older days, people used to define different parts of the brain by using their eyes. Now, because we have way more data than in the past, we don’t do that anymore. Nowadays, researchers typically trace connections between brain cells using this slices of tissues that can be seen layer by layer. To build a 3D map, the team broke broke the mouse brain into voxels, or 3D pixels, and then mapped the cells and connections with every voxel. They then made a 3D map and published it.

Mice are common model organisms in neuroscience. Their brains have similar structures to humans’, they can be trained, they breed easily, and researchers have already gotten good understanding of how their brains work. In doing so, neuroscientists will have a tool to develop new research programs and accelerate research that is already underway.

The story, “Seventh Grade,” is about a boy named Victor who is on his first day of school. He met his friend, Michael, who had learned to scowl during the summer. He thinks that it makes girls notice him. Victor wants to impress his crush, Teresa, so he tries scowling too. He also signs up for French class because he wants to go to France someday, and also because Teresa signed up for it too.

The theme for the story is to not fake something to try to impress someone. In his French class, the teacher asked who knew how to speak French, and he raised his hand. What they didn’t know is that he does not know anything about French. He only wanted to impress Teresa. Then, the teacher asked him a question in French, and he did not know how to reply. He just made random sounds that he thought sounded like French, and he was very embarrassed.

After class, Teresa thought that he actually knew French, and told him that it was good. The teacher didn’t tell her that it was actually random sounds because it reminded him of his past. Then, he still tried to impress her by saying he got it by watching movies and reading books. Next, she asked him if he can help her in French sometime. He agreed, and then he actually went to the library. He learned his lesson in the end and checked out three French textbooks so next time in class, he can actually understand the teacher.

Why is it important to study Coronavirus in bats? How does the characteristics of Coronavirus prove dangerous enough to have more studies on it? It is important to study Coronavirus in bats because they could have carried more types of viruses before. They could discover new kinds of coronavirus in bats that we didn’t know about before. The characteristics of Coronavirus prove dangerous enough to get more studies on it because if we search for new viruses, it can prevent a lot of deaths.

Studying coronavirus in bats can benefit us a lot. In their studies, they tested 464 bats and collected 759 samples. 48 of the samples contained coronaviruses. They found six viruses that used to be unknown to researchers. Most of these were in droppings, which meant that they could be a major source of virus transmission. This will let us be aware about it if someone gets infected with that virus and possibly prevent their death.

The coronavirus is dangerous enough to have more studies on it. In April of 2020, COVID-19 had infected more than 1.5 million people globally, with more than 159,000 people from the United States. In the studies, they have discovered more types of coronavirus in bat droppings. Studying about the virus might be able to prevent it from getting into other people. This will help prevent more deaths from the coronavirus.

How does our brain affect our daily activities? Our brain affects our daily activities in many ways. Some ways are that our brain affects our mood, state of mind, self control, and memory. Brain chemicals, or neurotransmitters affect our mood or state of being that we are in. There are many types of neurotransmitters in our brain, and new ones are still being discovered. Some sever illnesses to the brain can affect your impulses and impulsive behavior.

Our brain also affects our self control. Some people can’t control what they want to and not want to do. This shows a lack on self control. Some examples of not being able to control yourselves are eating sweets in a diet. Another example is not being able to resist temptations. Having self control is an important part of our everyday lives.

The third thing that our brain affects is out memory. In my opinion, our memory is the most important thing in our daily lives. Some people have short term memory and some have long term memory. If you have short term memory, you forget more things easier. If you have long term memory, you remember more things. If you suffer from short term memory loss, you can forget things you just did, which affects you a lot because then you won’t be able to remember important events that you are supposed to remember.
