Airbags - Pop Em' Or Keep Em'
.... happen before the automotive industry does something
about it? Children are not the only victims, though. Small women and the
elderly have also been killed as a result of airbags. The time has come to
ask ourselves, "Do airbags really work?"
First off, most people feel that airbags are a great safety device.
They let people walk away from an accident without a scratch, right? They
protect everybody, right? People don't need seatbelts if their car has an
airbag, right? Wrong. Airbags cause injuries .....

Censorship Of The Internet And The Tyranny Of Our Government
.... so
why even try? Cyberspace is the most decentralized form of communication
today making policing the Internet a virtually futile task. Unlike
television or radio, the Internet consists of thousands of individual
computers and networks, with thousands of speakers, information providers
and information users, and no centralized distribution point (ACLU vs. Reno
Brief 1). No guards watch to see who goes where and if that place is
appropriate. The Internet has grown to be a global network. Just because

Catalytic Converters
.... There it comes into contact
with the described catalyst. This forces a reaction between the carbon monoxide
and hydrocarbons with the oxygen inside the converter creating products of
carbon dioxide and water vapor. The reaction which occurs inside the converter
is as follows:
The main compounds involved are carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons
(compounds of hydrogen and carbon), as well as oxygen. When these three are
combined with the provided catalyst, a reaction occurs as above. During the

Wide Web, is a relatively new concept of being “on-line”. This new project
has opened a limitless number of doors for our society. Now anyone can use
the Internet to communicate with anybody else in the world a lot faster and
cheaper. Cellular phones have also appeared recently in the electronic
world. These devices allow a person to be reached from practically
anywhere. With cellular phones a person can, from then on, be in
communication with the worl .....

People And Machines

to fly with jet engines instead of propellers. Navigation, engine control,
oil pressure, and various other components of the vehicle rely on the
computer. Workers can become so mechanical in their job process that they
could do it with their eyes closed, and have actually become a machine
themselves. As technology increases at a rapid pace, workers will not be
able to become mechanical machines at a job.

The Evolution Of Jet Engines
.... would be one of the factors that kept Germany alive in World War II. With
technological advances by the allies a prototype turbojet known as the "Heinkel
He 178" came into a few operational squadrons in the German, British, and the
American air forces towards the end of World War II. These jets finally helped
the allies to win the war against the axis powers(Smith 23-27).
A later development in the jet industry was the overcoming of the sound
barrier and establishing normal operations up to and .....

social animals. It is this fact that will keep them from being glued to
their television sets. Clearly these factors will not allow interactive
television to overtake the American home.
So what exactly is interactive television and what does it do?
Interactive television is the ability literally to interact with the
television set just like we do with a home computer on the Internet. With
the advent of fiber optics and satellite communications, the communications

Modern Designing In Today's Automobile
.... high tech, powerful computers

produce a car and typically each engineer has a specific job, such as the
car's frame. These engineers work independently on their assigned tasks,
but they all are aware of what the other engineers are working on. This is
because all of the work each engineer produces must work in unison with the
work their colleagues are doing so that all the work produced functions as
one; as an automobile.

Use Of Non-Lethal Weapons
.... where
things such as water cannons or snare nets could be used instead of lethal
force. In some jails, sticky foam is being used to restrain uncooperative
inmates. Whether we use non-lethal force on civilians or prisoners, it
helps our country in the long run.
So, if we use non-lethal force against criminals or uncooperative
civilians, we can reduce death and risk of innocent children dying. It's
true that guns must be used, but not for petty crimes such as a small
burglary.

rocker arm, then "rocks" down on a spring that in turn pushes open a valve.
This all happens due to the rotation of the camshaft which is geared to the
crankshaft (which is connected to the pistons) which is all part of the
four stroke cycle.
The four-stroke cycle starts with the intake stroke. On the intake
stroke, the piston moves down from its top dead center or the farthest "up"
position creating a partial vacuum which draws in t .....

Brief History Of Library Automation: 1930-1996
.... Library Automation: 1930-1960
It could be said that library automation development began in the 1930's
when punch card equipment was implemented for use in library circulation and
acquisitions. During the 30's and early 40's progress on computer systems was
slow which is not surprising, given the Depression and World War II. In 1945,
Vannevar Bush envisioned an automated system that would store information,
including books, personal records and articles. Bush(1945) wrote about a
hypothetical "memex" sys .....
