Network Security
Number of pages: 11 | Number of words: 2810.... Facts and findings
2.1 What is Security?
“ Security is the state of mind” [1]
An example is mission impossible one of the detective movies who show how easy it is to tap a telephone- Although it is illegal unauthorised access is gained, damage can be done to sensitive data if leaked from one company to another which can provide criminals with the electronic gold mine of fraud opportunities.[2]
so this justifies the need for security.
Many definitions say that security means “…..unauthorised access, such as preventing a hacker from .....

Chromosome Probes At The University Of Toronto
Number of pages: 9 | Number of words: 2250.... are restricted to women over 35 and those who have a family history of chromosomal abnormalities. Prenatal tests using Willard's probes would be much simpler and faster to perform and could be available to all pregnant women who wish to take advantage of the technology. Current prenatal testing involves growing fetal cells in vitro and examining them, over one or two months, to see if there are two copies of a particular chromosome, which is normal, or one or three, which is abnormal. A test using Willard's probes would require only a few cells and a few days to detect abno .....

Mechanics: Statics And Dynamics
Number of pages: 6 | Number of words: 1552.... at the core of much engineering analysis. In fact, no physical science
plays a greater role in engineering than does mechanics, and it is the oldest of
all physical sciences. The writings of Archimedes covering bouyancy and the
lever were recorded before 200 B.C. Our modern knowledge of gravity and motion
was established by Isaac Newton (1642-1727).
Mechanics can be divided into two parts: (1) Statics, which relate to
bodies at rest, and (2) dynamics, which deal with bodies in motion. In this
paper we will explore the static dimension of mechanics and discus .....

Livestock And Wastes
Number of pages: 6 | Number of words: 1434.... is stored until it can be pumped out to irrigate fields. The solid manure sinks to the bottom of the lagoon and is broken down by anaerobic bacteria over several months. The liquid rises to the top and is collected and sprayed over nearby fields.
Many problems come with the lagoons. North Carolina is one of the top hog producing states in the country. On June 21, 1995, North Carolina suffered the largest agricultural waste spill in its history: a 7.5-acre, 12-foot-deep lagoon leaked 25 million gallons of hog waste into the headwaters of the New River near Richlands. Th .....

The Lowell Observatory
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 730.... over the city. You are guided through a
tour and experiments, and also are allowed to use the telescopes they have
located on Mars Hill.
There are a total of nine telescopes, eight which are at the
observatory, of these many of them are historic, such as the 24" Clark
Refractor that is 102 years old. The Pluto telescope dome and John Vickers
McAllister telescope dome, which is 16" long, are also telescopes you would
find at Lowell Observatory. The most modern telescope they have there is
the Anderson Mesa Telescope. Their ninth telescope is located in Western
Austr .....

Diabetes 2
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 697.... apparatus restored.
What is Diabetes? Well, this disease is known as "diabetes mellitus," diabetes from the Greek word meaning excessive urination, a symptom the Greeks noticed, and mellitus, from the Latin for honey, which is because diabetic urine is filled with sugar and is sweet. Physicians and medical books use the term diabetes mellitus, but is the most commonly called diabetes. There are two major types of diabetes: type 1 and type 2. Both of them are a little different. But everyone with diabetes has one thing in common: Little or no ability to move sugar- .....

The Dung Beetle, What A Marvelous Creature.
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 643.... big cow pat. I remember how
disgusting it appeared, but I was just fascinated at the concept of cow
poop being rolled into balls and taken away by bugs. To realize why dung
beetles are so important, you must first know a few facts about them. Dung
beetles are named after their delight in rolling up dung. Dung beetles
utilize the dung of cows, horses, rabbits, deer, sheep, and many other
animals. How many of you think dung beetles actually eat manure? The
answer is yes. Dung beetles just love fresh dung. They shove the dung into
their mouths, squeeze it, and drink the juic .....

Genetic Cloning And Frankenstein
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 980.... exhortation for today’s technological advances in genetic cloning.
Mary Shelly’s “Frankenstein” provides a clear distinction between the theoretical grandeur of man’s ability to scientifically author life and the stark reality, which it encompasses. Mary prophetically illustrates some of the potential hazards of breaking through the barrier that separates man from God (Bloom 611). Her insight allows the reader to trace these repercussions through Victor Frankenstein, the monster, and eventually society. The character of Victor Frankenstein illustrates the path of .....
