- 12921: Joseph Stalin
- ... longer the government forcing what they want the people to believe. The people of the former Soviet Union can now freely decide whether they believe Stalin to be a wonderful leader or a monster. The new generation must realize the horrible atrocities Stalin committed to their relatives and think him a terrible criminal. Hopefully the generation that was alive during the time of Stalin and his successors, who were brainwashed into ... was heralded to be. For the most part people in the former Soviet Union must view him as the evil, paranoid man he was, but do realize his accomplishments at industrializing and beating Hitler in World War Two, though at terrible costs. There still will always be those few holdovers, who have been so confused with propaganda that they would still believe Stalin a good leader. For the most part, hopefully ...
- 12922: Biomedical Engineering
- ... and/or industrial applications. (Drexel University) The biomedical engineer serves as the connection between traditional engineering subjects and living systems. He/she may work applying the patterns of living organisms to engineering design or engineering new approaches or products to improve human health and productivity. On the one hand, the biomedical engineer may use his/her knowledge of physiological systems to reverse engineer nature, creating, for example, artificial tissues and neural networks. On the other hand, a biomedical engineer may use knowledge of engineering to create new equipment or environments for maximizing human performance, accelerating wound healing, providing non-invasive diagnostic tools, product design, or numerous other applications.

He had many other views that has effected this world and country. But over all I experienced many things will researching this report and writing it.

- 12924: Jon Woo
- ... you may not have heard about him, he is widely considered to be "the best contemporary director of action films working anywhere." John Woo, after many years of hard work, has become known as the world's best action film director. His action sequences have become the stuff of legend and are now the basis from which all other action movies are judged. More importantly, along with the bloodshed, Woo has ... action sequences in which viewers often get caught up in, mixed in are the duel gun battles and the Mexican standoffs. Woo is known for action, and this is where a great deal of the "new breed" of action directors (and some old veterans) get their "inspiration" for their action sequences. One of Woo's trademarks, men shooting it out with a gun in each hand, has almost become a clichι ...
- 12925: Octopuses
- Octopuses An octopus is a creature that many do not give much thought to, but it just happens to be considered one of the world's most intelligent invertebrae. Most people only see an octopus on their dinner plate and quite often get them confused with squids. Yet they are amazing creatures that are completely separate from squids. Octopuses are carnivorous marine mollusks that can be found throughout the world's tropical and warm temperate waters. Phylogeny: scientific name To determine a creature's scientific name, one must consider its origin and how it starts off. An octopus is a Protosome because when it starts ... to be the smartest invertebrae capable of solving complex problems. Behavior: Habitat and Reproduction Octopuses generally stay in one area as adults, but those species with a planktonic larvae stage are found all over the world because the currents and tides move them. Much of an octopus's life is spent in hiding. They normally choose a natural hole among rocks or in a pile of rubble, distinct hiding place, ...
- 12926: Creation Versus Evolution
- Creation Versus Evolution Creation versus evolution: this topic is not new to the world of debate. Since the time that Charles Darwin introduced the theory of evolution in the 1830's, the Christian community (or perhaps those communities with any faith in a greater being) has been at odds ...
- 12927: Genetic Engineering And DNA Technology In Agricultural Productivity
- Genetic Engineering And DNA Technology In Agricultural Productivity Due to more and more technological advances in genetic engineering, gene splicing, DNA fingerprinting, and mapping, breakthroughs in the agricultural productivity are being made. This new DNA technology allows scientists to do things such as increase food production, reduce the plants dependency on pesticides and other harmful chemicals, reduce costs for raw materials, improve the practices of farmers, and improve ... are able to fix the nitrogen themselves. Obviously, DNA technology is having a major impact on the agricultural economy. With more and more knowledge and technology, even greater advances will be developed to help the world.
- 12928: Cosmology
- ... a super mass? (You could probably find a mass in the universe today that is the largest and has the strongest gravitational force of any other mass, and name that the possible center of a new super mass). We would then have an answer to the theory of a big bang, and there would definitely be chaos in the distant future of Earth. Though, we still would have no idea how ... and since many things as we know them could not function without time, I believe that it has a part in everything. Of course I could be wrong, I only see things as how the world is aware of them, as for everyone else. I may not know that time only exists because we need it to in order to function as a human race. For the subject of other intelligent ...
- 12929: Creation or Evolution?
- ... life is seen as having resulted by natural processes only. The theory suggests that in the past there were extended intervals of stability which ended with a mass extinction and the sudden appearance of a new species. This process occured without the intervention of supernatural forces or dieties. Nearly all modern scientists who are not Evangelical Christians believe in evolution. Biblical creationists are also called literal creationists, because they interpret the ... beings and sink us "into a lower grade of degradation" than any time in recorded history. He was partially correct. The fact that many people think they evolved from monkeys has made morale in the world lower. However, to say that it has been the cause for the decline of society is ridiculous. Yes, war and crime has been higher in this century than in any other, but it is ceartainly ...
- 12930: Satellites
- ... rocket. During the years 1943 through 1946 several studies concluded that available rockets would be unable to place a satellite into orbit. Work on rockets for missiles and upper atmosphere research was so great after World War II that by 1954 the possibility of launching a satellite was no longer in serious doubt. In October 1954 the Committee for the International Geophysical Year (IGY), announced to other countries that they were ... the United States launched EXPLORER 1 on Jan. 31, 1958. These two satellites provided a lot of information for further work on satellites. Emphasis was first placed on satellites to measure the characteristics of the new space environment and for the design of communications, weather, and navigation satellites and eventually for manned space flight. Experimental satellites for all kinds of satellites quickly followed. Since 1957 thousand's of satellites have been ...
