El Nino
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 380

.... depth. This depression of the thermocline has great effects on the worlds fishing industry. The cutting of nutrient rich therocline water reduces the growth of algae, which in trun, collapses the food chain. Thus, leaving our worlds subsistence and commercial fishermen with out food and money. With the already descendeing food chain on our earth, the warming water also effects the atmosphere, resulting in more extreme temperatures, more rain, and more drought periods, costing more money to our already debted economy, and the world. An example (demonstrated here by alaska) .....


Vivisection
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 349

.... rights too. Inmates should be able to do it if they want. The inmates should be asked that question by the judge when they are being sentenced for their crime. I understand that there is another opinion to this debate. I can almost understand why they would believe in . The only time I believe it should be used is for patients dying of cancer. I still do not think it is right. We might not have some of the cures we have today without animal testing, although maybe we would. Maybe we would have more. Nobody knows. I still firmly think it is wrong to do evil experiments on a .....


Fluorescence Study Of Dyes
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 815

.... We will distinguish between collisional energy transfer and dipole-dipole transfer. From here we will try to determine the quenching constant and the distance at which decay and energy transfer are equally probable, as well as prove that Stern-Volmer's law and Förster's theory are obeyed. 2. Results 2.1. Electronic Absorption Spectra We made up stock solutions for both salts and diluted them down to use in the UV/vis spectrometer. Coumarin 1 C = 8 x10-5 mol dm -3 We obtained a spectrum with a maximum at 376.5nm at an absorbance of 1.4573, using Beer-Lambert .....


Linux 2
Number of pages: 23 | Number of words: 6064

.... question lies in the history of UNIX; UNIX is a sort of subset of a much larger and more complex operating system called MULTICS. Both UNIX and MULTICS were developed decades ago for very large computers; only now, decades later are personal computers finally powerful enough to tackle these multitasking, multi-user systems with advanced features. Getting back to the crux of our first fact, LINUX looks like UNIX. LINUX is not officially UNIX simply because it was not written by the same programmers as was the original UNIX system. However, LINUX runs UNIX programs and shar .....


Genetic Engineering 2
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1140

.... for the world because of it. Some of scientist ideals of how to alter this new science to create the perfect human does in-fact sound crazy. But if genetic engineering was regulated to prevent such things the new science could bring wonders to many peoples lives. The first form of genetic engineering began with a man named Mendel, a monk in the late nineteenth century. He was the first to even formulate the concept of the gene from his experiments on pea plants. Since Mendel, other scientists have continued in agricultural engineering, a type of engineering that deals .....


UFOs Exist
Number of pages: 7 | Number of words: 1801

.... 1940s UFO sightings were being told all over the world. Since the 1940s UFOs are seen every day by people all over the world. Ufologists have come up with a system to divide UFO incidents into three major types of close encounters. First, close encounter of the first kind (CEI) are classified as UFO sightings. Second, close encounters of the second kind (CE2) are sightings and permanent evidence, such as marks in the ground or burns on grass. Third, close encounters of the third kind (CE3) are actual contact with alien beings from a UFO. (Oberg 240) There are many diffe .....


Alchemy

.... and silver from the native matrix. The resulting oxide was supposed to possess marvelous powers, and it was thought that there resided within in the individualities of the various metals, that in it their various substances were incorporated. This black powder was mystically identified with the underworld form of the god Osiris, and consequently was credited with magical properties. Thus there grew up in Egypt the belief that magical powers existed in fluxes and alloys. Probably such a belief existed throughout Europe in connection with the bronze-working castes of its seve .....


Lasers 3
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 809

.... emission of radiation). The maser amplifies the number of photons that cause microwaves. After the invention of the maser many scientists became interested in the idea of building an optical maser, which soon received the name laser (light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation). Townes paired with Arthur Schawlow, two Soviets, Nikolai Basov and Aleksander Prokhorov, as well as Gordon Gould were all interested in developing a light-amplifying device. All of them knew that there were three essential ingredients in making a laser; a florescent material that w .....
