- 1631: Global Warming…Fact or Fiction?
- ... some scientists may tell the public. It will also attempt to show how data reports from governmental agencies differ with their own collection of data. Global warming is not something to be concerned with. The computer models that are used to predict climate change are unreliable as the programming data is skewed and so is the data being put into the model’s equations. This paper will hopefully shed new light ... above mentioned sources of information can be found and researched from. Most federal government agencies have a page on the World Wide Web, where data and ideas can be spread worldwide and even into your computer. Essays, books, articles, etc. from other sources is another form of media where the climate change data was found. The titles and other reference material can be found in the bibliography page. DISCUSSION Global Warming ... 58-59). Human health usually has improved during warm periods throughout history (Singer 59). Global warming would be beneficial to humans, rather than harmful! CONCLUSION More research has to be conducted by climate scientists, and computer models need to be refined to include all possible variables. Temperature data (satellite and radiosonde) collected over the past does not show an increase due to human interference. Although there has been a slight ...
- 1632: The Tragic Challenger Explosion
- ... service, he put himself through night school, eventually earning a degree in aerospace engineering that helped him become an officer and a pilot. He loved flying. Scobee once observed, :You know, it's a real crime to be paid for a job that I have so much fun doing." On one of his space missions, he carried a banner made for him by students at Auburn High, his old high school ... underway. Just after liftoff at .678 seconds into the flight, photographic data show a strong puff of gray smoke was spurting from the vicinity of the aft field joint on the right solid rocket booster. Computer graphic analysis of film from pad cameras indicated the initial smoke came from the 270 to 310-degree sector of the circumference of the aft field joint of the right solid rocket booster. This area ...
- 1633: Revolutionary QM212
- ... process in bio-chemistry involves the manipulation of molecules to defeat diseases, viruses, chemical warfare, and to reduce the cost of bio-chemical engineering. This new process is refined in that the researcher utilizes new computer technology to model the behavior of certain molecules to insert a "slot" for discarding unwanted foreign objects. These unwanted foreign objects are discarded by fixing the slot to fit the objects. This slot can be ... antibody binds with fluorescein molecules. Into this chunk of material, they inserted instructions for buildin g a metal-ion binding sight. They discovered where to put this slot by simulating the antibody on a large computer. The resulting product revealed an anti-fluorescein antibody which binds to metal ions. After physically inserting the genetic code in to E. coli. bacteria, the researchers had a large batch of a new compound which ... new product which would desist the AIDS virus fill the radio waves. AIDS is increasing exponentially and this would halt its fatal expansion. Also, biologists would no longer waste money in replicating vaccines. A mini-computer would be used to replicate synthetic antibodies instead. Creating molecules with the uncanningly precise seek-andÄ destroy capabilities of natural antibodies is an exciting step in replicating nature's fascinating immune system. Bibliography Uehling, ...
- 1634: The Longest Day
- ... the heavens and the earth, who established the rotation of the planets and stars to the fraction of a second, making the earth stop rotating for 24 hours is not such a difficult task. Yet, computer scientists in the space program and mathematicians - one a former professor at Yale University - have discovered that a whole day has been unaccountably added in time. The positions of the moon, sun, and planets have ... the past. It was during one such search that the extra day appeared. From various accounts of the incident, it appears that something "did not compute." The extra day was just there. There was no computer malfunction; there was no explanation for the interruption of normal time patterns. When this apparent error appeared and no explanation was forthcoming, one of the scientists related that he had studied in Sunday School about ... time when the story was written. Their calculations showed that the time the sun stood still was 23 hours and 20 minutes. It was not a whole day. This forty minutes was significant to the computer experts with their penchant for precision. A missing forty minutes would throw things off for years into the future. The former Sunday School pupil piped up again, saying he knew of another Bible story ...
- 1635: Animal Rights
- ... medicines to enhanc he better living of humans. In addition, there are no alternatives to animal experimentation that can give the same results that it can. In certain research investigations, cell, tissue, organ cultures, and computer models can be used at least in the preliminary phases of the investigation. However, in many experimental situations, culture techniques and computer models do not capture the "physiological complexity" of the whole animal. Some examples of where animals are necessary in research include the development of a vaccine against HIV and improvement of methods to relieve mental stress and anxiety. These challenges can only be addressed by research with animals. Computer models and cultures cannot get the whole body effect of an experiment. Humans are the only alternatives to animals for this and when faced with this alternative, most people prefer the use on animals ...
- 1636: Misinformation In The Media
- ... Misinformation in the news usually has little or no evidence, witnesses, or published experts in the article or report. Therefore, it would be wise to question articles without valid support or evidence. “Brass Doomed Street Crime Unit” article that exemplifies deliberate persuasion. Studying the premises and conclusions describes the argument the writer is trying to prove.(Copi and Cohen 10) The article talks about the street crime unit. The street crime unit consist of 400 police officers who do not dress in an uniform of any kind. These officers carry a badge and a gun. This article specifically states that after increasing the unit by ...

- ... insures his release from incarceration. "In a little over a fortnight you will be out again in the big free world, no longer a number"(Burgess 108). With the increase in population comes an increase crime, this has also brought on encouraging new rehabilitating techniques to corrections. Stated by one government official the importance of reforming in corrections rather than retribution. "The government cannot be concerned any longer with out moded penalogical theories. Cram criminals together and see what happens. You get concentrated criminality, crime in the midst of punishment . . . Kill the criminal reflex, that's all"(Burgess 105,106). The rehabilitating technique used upon Alex is that of responsive conditioning with the use of drugs and visual aids. Conditioning ... corrections is concerned, society can not lock up every offender and can not come up with plausible means of curing the criminal element. With the rise in population there will always be a rise in crime. However this does seem to be the present trend, 5.3 million people were on probation, in jail, in prison, or on parole in 1995 (B.J.S. 1). As seen in Alex's ...
- 1638: Antigone: Creon A Tragic Hero
- ... the penalty [shall result in] Stoning to death in the public square”(Prologue, ll. 20, 24-25). Antigone, Polyneices’ sister, defies Creon: “I will bury him; and if I must die, I say that this crime is holy” (Prologue, ll. 55-56). To prove to the people that Creon is a man of his word, he issues her death sentence rather than permits her mercy. Here, hubris, his tragic flaw, the excessive pride that prohibits his admission of a mistake, results in a dishonorable crime against morality. Unfortunately, Creon fails to recognize that a crime against ethics can in no way ever prosper his – or any other -- state. Clearly, his hubris clouds his vision and ultimately leads to his reversal. In Creon’s time and still today, parents must ...
- 1639: Is There Evil in Lady Macbeth and Edmund?
- ... the actual murdering; he was also the first person who thought about killing Duncan. Lady Macbeth did not have any involvement in these cases. The first murder in this story was committed on Duncan. This crime was planned by both Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. Lady Macbeth just talked about committing the crime, but she never actually went through with it nor would she ever. Her talk and persuasion put the ideas in Macbeth's head and made him think it was the right thing to do. She urged him into doing it which makes her part of this crime, but she is not as guilty as Macbeth. The talk of murder and the planning Lady Macbeth did for her husband makes her evil. The idea of killing Duncan first came from Macbeth. Macbeth ...
- 1640: Massurrealism
- ... thread among massurrealists, the marriage of pop-art/mass media subjects and techniques of the surreal, which are individually expressed in each artist. For example, painter Michael Morris incorporates current technologies (xeroxes, fax machines, rubdown, computer images) to his mixed media paintings. Using the mass-produced elements like any pop-artist would, Morris creates a massurrealist image. These are just a few techniques that bridge the gap between the "traditional" and ... answer would be to consider the way the poem is produced. Using technology, here one can get creative. Taking an existing poem does this, and sending it through a digital language translation done by a computer into a few languages, then it is translated back into the original language it was written in. Here is one example of a massurrealist poem. the group took “Our Lady Peace the following lyrics from ... organization which provides its members, and the rest of the Internet public, an excellent resource focusing on a very unique form of art. As time progresses, newer media and technology are being discovered. The evolving computer technology alone is changing what is considered "mass media". Along with the help of television and cable a world -wide art movement is developing. Massurrealism leads this evolution, and embodies the mystery of today' ...
