Mars 2
Number of words: 1038 | Number of pages: 4

... a visible boundary. On the opposite end the northern hemisphere consists of a wider variety of geological features, but is obviously smoother and much younger. There are large volcanoes, a great rift valley, and a variety of channels. Volcanism is a geological process that occurs on Earth today, and has on many planetary bodies throughout the history of the solar system. No volcanism is occurring on the surface of Mars today. In the past, however, volcanism was one of the main forces creating and reshaping the surface of the planet. All of the rocks that have been observed by the Viking landers and the Mars Pathfinder Rover are generally agreed to be volcanic in origin. Tharsis is ...

Ebola Virus
Number of words: 1098 | Number of pages: 4

... was really Ebola. The first recorded outbreak of the Zaire string of the Ebola virus was in Zaire, in 1976. The doctors didn't know how to treat it and that meant that they didn't know how to contain it either. As infected people met in public places the virus spread. In Western Sudan, the same year, the Sudan string of the Ebola virus emerged with similar results. Both casts together had about a total of 550 infections and around 340 deaths (about 60% death rate). The virus' then lay dormant till 1979, when Sudan was again hit with 34 infections and 22 deaths. In the outbreak, as before, the fatality rate was about 60% (Mussillami, www.lfc.edu) In 1987 a new string of the E ...

Vivisection

... 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 animals. A big problem today is whether or not scientists should use animals for experimental purposes. If we have other alternatives we should use them. Animal testing is cruel. If scientists are so smart they s ...

MP3paper
Number of words: 738 | Number of pages: 3

... found at Winamp.com. I personally like this player because it has a digital equalizer, which gives you more control over the sound of the music. This player reads the songs directly off the hard drive so there is no need for a disk, CD, or tape of any kind. This player also has a feature of a playlist where songs can be added or deleted. Which gives another reason to choose MP3s over albums. The easy access and the convenience of being able to control the music you listen to has many record companies worried about the future of the their music business. They have started a movement to maintain their security by developing the SDMI or the Secure Digital Music Initiative (Machrone). Th ...

Disease In Africa
Number of words: 4745 | Number of pages: 18

... with many different types of disease within their society due to their type of land, climate and weather. "Among all the diverse natural environments of the earth, tropical rain forests are the most variegated in the sense that more diverse forms of life share this kind of habitat than occupy drier, cooler regions."(McNeill,16) Africa possesses the prefect breeding ground for many diseases. There were many diseases and viruses that have had an impact on Africa, however trypanosomiasis, malaria, yellow fever, AIDS, smallpox, onchocerciasis and yaws were the most destructive. African trypanosomiasis is a destructive disease that is often called "the sleeping sickness." It is an inf ...

Aerosol Spray Cans

... stem down in its housing, uncovering a small a small hole which leads up through the stem to the nozzle in the button. This allows the product to be forced up the dip tube by the gas pressure in the can. The nozzle is shaped to give a spray or a continuous stream. To produce a fine mist, a propellant is used which mixes with the product. The two leave the nozzle together and the propellant evaporates a soon as it reaches the air, breaking the product in to tiny droplets. The same technique used with a more viscous liquid and a wider nozzle results in a foam. For a continuous stream of liquid or more viscous material, a nonmixing propellant is used, and the dip tube reaches into the prod ...

Endocrine Disruptors

... likely to be encountered in the environment. However the process of bioaccumulation can result in top-level predators such as humans to have contaminants at levels many million times greater than the environmental background levels (Guilette 1994). In field studies, toxicity caused by endocrine disruption has been associated with the presence of certain pollutants. Findings from such studies include: reproductive disruption in starfish due to PCBs, bird eggshell thinning due to DDT, reproductive failure in mink, small penises in alligators due to DDT and dicofol (Guillette 1994, Colburn et al 1996). In addition, a variety of reproductive problems in many other species are claimed to be a ...

Dangers Of Steriods
Number of words: 445 | Number of pages: 2

... marijuana or cocaine. A ten week cycle of testosterone cypinate and methandrostone costs only about one hundred dollars. Steroids are also very hard to trace because of their water base composition. They can pass through the body within two days. All these benefits of steroids help an athletes become more competitive and increase their chance of being a winner. Of course everybody wants better biceps and triceps but when using steroids to achieve this goal there is a large price to pay. However, steroids should remain illegal because they physically deteriorate the whole body system. When injected one risks the chances of developing hematoma and contracting AID ...

The Aftermath Of Hurricane Mitch
Number of words: 382 | Number of pages: 2

... swam to freedom as Mitch's floodwaters rose and propelled them over the walls. Hundreds of homes, streets, and businesses were washed away, and those that remained standing found themselves anchored beneath several feet of mud and debris. In some places, the stench is overpowering. The smell from intermingled garbage, rotting food, rancid floodwater, animal and -- very possibly -- human corpses fills the air. Yet still people work near the water, clean goods in it, even bathe in it. The potential for disease cannot be understated. Homeowners squat along the muddy, contaminated waters, rinsing clothing, dishes, photographs -- anything that can be salvaged. Residen ...

Perception: Seeing Is Believing - UFOs
Number of words: 685 | Number of pages: 3

... yearn for a concrete explanation on UFO's, their beliefs on their origin contrast. Many looking for a more scientific definition disregard UFO's as nothing more than a mere misinterpretation of a plane, weather balloon, or meteor. Some have gone so far as to say that specific witnesses to UFO's have seen nothing more than a hallucination and "wanted" to see a UFO so their minds adapted that idea into an illusion to satisfy the urge. Personally, I have had two encounters with unexplainable objects in the sky and to disregard them as a misinterpretation or hallucination is an impossibility. Witnesses who were with me on one of the occasions saw exactly what I did and we concluded ...
