- 141: Internet Censorship
- ... ISP's computer for the whole internet community to view. This is where many ethical and moral questions arise regarding the internet. Not every user wants his homepage to deal with the spin rates of atoms or the airspeed of South African swallows. Some users wish to display "objectionable" material on their homepages. This may have started out as a prank to some, but now net- porn is an offshoot industry ... create and the ISP's maintain them for free so the entire online community can see what you have to say. Unfortunately not everyone wants to set up homepages dealing with the spin rates of atoms or the airspeeds of South American swallows. Most ISP's are more than willing to set up homepages dealing with the most gratuitous of acts aimed at very specialized audiences. This is where the problem ...
- 142: The Atomic Bomb and its Effects on Post-World War II
- ... science of physics had been undergoing a revolution for the past thirty-odd years. Scientists now had a clear picture of what the atomic world was like. They new the structure and particle makeup of atoms, as well as how they behaved. During the 1930's it became apparent that there was a immense amount of energy that would be released atoms of Gioielli 2certain elements were split, or taken apart. Scientists began to realize that if harnessed, this energy could be something of a magnitude not before seen to human eyes. They also saw that this ...
- 143: Uranium: Nuclear Friend or Nuclear Foe
- ... At the conclusion of their experiment, they found a trace of barium in the uranium. Later they found that the release of energy and the presence of barium were caused by the splitting of uranium atoms. It was at that moment that the world was first introduced to man controlled nuclear power. After the successful splitting of an atom, many nations set to work to find a way to produce and ... a peaceful purpose. The U.S. was the first nation to start programs for uranium powered nuclear plants. The U.S.'s enthusiasm in this area was fully shown when president Dwight Eisenhower delivered his ³Atoms for Peace² speech before the United Nations in 1953. In this speech, the president expressed his opinion that one day almost all of the power in the world would be created by nuclear power. The ...
- 144: Nuclear Power
- ... world's electricity. There are around 316 nuclear power plants in the world that create 213,000 megawatts of electricity. (INFOPEDIA) Radioactive, or nuclear, waste is the by-product of nuclear fission. Fission occurs when atoms' nucleus' split and cause a nuclear reaction. (General Information) When a free neutron splits a nucleus, energy is released along with free neutrons, fission fragments that give off beta rays, and gamma rays. A free ...

The Geranium has the most benefits for people with tumors. The Geranium atoms act as a catalyst on those who are suffering from tumors. This allows the body to absorb the malignancy. The Geranium is expelled from the body between twenty and thirty hours later. The Geranium does ...
- 146: Iron and Rust
- ... water proof substance. This method is the least expensive, therefore it is the most common. The forming of rust is known as a chemical reaction. A chemical reaction is defined as a process by which atoms are redistributed, resulting in a change in the molecular composition of the substances. Rust is also known as iron oxide. Rusting is a chemical reaction that takes place rather slowly. Chemical Kinetics, the study of ...
- 147: What Effect Does Aging Have On Memory?
- ... everyday perception, thought, and movement is derived from this source. Memory collects the countless phenomena of our existence into a single whole; and, as our bodies would be scattered into the dust of their component atoms if they were not held together by the attraction of matter, so our consciousness would be broken up into as many fragments as we have lived seconds but for the binding and unifying force of ...

- ... the past when he mistakenly receives photographs of traitors, Jones, Aaronson, and Rutherford. Since the photograph contradicts the official Party history, Winston at first feels that he has some power to "blow the Party to atoms" (67). Later he realizes that his power was illusory at best. As "the past not only changes, but changes constantly" (68). The details, which the photograph contradicted, cease to have relavance. Thus, Smith's job ...
- 149: Suicide Solution
- ... out. Most people argue that nothing justifies the taking of someone's life. Yet what makes life so valuable? Why do people cling to it so? All we consist of is a bunch of carbon atoms, bound together to form an exoskeleton, organs, and tissue. In this light, there really is not much to life. Out of the 5 billion who inhabit the planet, very few of them shall emerge to ...
