Glamorous person

Who do you think is the most glamorous person? A bio technologist who led his company

in international research, an ordinary welder who gained international fame through his

work, or a photographer complimented widely for a series of photos?

CD quality sound

Reiss took a stab at settling the argument with a meta-analysis—a study of studies—on

whether people can really perceive better-than-CD quality sound. He analyzed data from

18 studies, including more than 400 participants and nearly 13,000 listening tests. Overall,

listeners picked out the better-than-CD-quality track 52.3 percent of the time. Statistically

significant, if not all that impressive.

English Revolution

There are three main interpretations of the English Revolution. The longest lasting

interpretation was that the Revolution was the almost inevitable outcome of an age-old

power struggle between parliament and crown. The second sees it as a class struggle, and

a lead-up to the French and other revolutions. Finally, the third interpretation sees the

other two as too fixed, not allowing for unpredictability, and that the outcome could have

gone either way.

Global warming

Global warming is defined as an increase in the average temperature of the earth's

atmosphere. This trend began in the middle of the 20th century and is one of the major

environmental concerns of scientists and governmental officials worldwide. The changes in

temperature result mostly from the effect of increased concentrations of greenhouse

gasses in the atmosphere.

The responses

As far as politics go, the responses are just as varied. Mitigation is common and calls for a

reduction of emissions and less reliance on fossil fuels. Coal burning power plants are now

replaced with hydraulic power plants and electrical cars are replacing some gasoline

efficient cars. Many people, however, feel that this is not enough.

The border

The border itself between Mexico and United States is fraught with a mix of urban and

desert terrain and spans over 1,900 miles. Both the uninhabited areas of the border and

urban areas are where the most drug trafficking and illegal crossings take place. Crime is

prevalent in urban cities like El Paso, Texas and San Diego, California.

Tsunamis

The tsunamis could provide crucial information about the habitability of ancient Mars. The

first one occurred when the planet must have been relatively warm and amenable for life,

because it carved out backwash channels as it returned to the sea. By contrast, the planet

had become much cooler by the time the second tsunami hit—the waters apparently

flash-froze after flowing onto the surface.

Thompson

"Thompson recognized and exploited all the ingredients of a successful amusement ride,"

writes Judith A. Adams in The American Amusement Park Industry. "His coasters combined

an appearance of danger with actual safety, thrilled riders with exhilarating speed, and

allowed the public to intimately experience the Industrial Revolution’s new technologies

of gears, steel, and dazzling electric lights."

T-cells

Usually, age is determined by physical characteristics, such as teeth or bones. Great— if

you have a body. Researchers have tried unsuccessfully to use blood. But in this study, the

scientists used immune cells called T-cells. T-cells recognize invaders through receptors

that match molecules on bacteria, viruses, even tumors. The cellular activity that produces

these receptors also produce a type of circular DNA molecule as a byproduct.

Non-material culture

For the purposes of argument, culture is divided into material and non-material, and the

speaker's aim is to show how they both affect each other. Material developments in tools

and technology can affect non- material culture, our customs and beliefs, and the other

way around. Genetics is used as an example as it has changed the way we think about life,

but also our beliefs have affected its rate of development.

Free trade

Free trade is an economic policy under which the government does not interfere with

trade. No tariffs are applied to imports or exports, and people are allowed to trade goods

and services as they please. Supply and demand dictates the prices for which goods and

services sell and are the only factors that determine how resources are allocated in society.

Networking

Networking is easy and fun because it taps into this human predilection to talk about

ourselves when asked. Consider successful networking as little more than the process of

guiding a person to tell you about his life, what he's doing, the company that employs him,

and his current industry.

Arms

Unlike the United Kingdom, which has taken a relatively restrictive approach to the

possession of arms, the United States has taken a more lenient approach. In the United

States, three models have evolved regarding the interpretation of the meaning of the right

to bear and keep arms as delineated in the Second Amendment.

Hunted species

It’s not that human activities didn’t impact wildlife at all of course. Heavily hunted

species, like white-tailed deer, grey squirrels, and raccoons, were photographed somewhat

less often in hunted areas. Coyotes showed up more often in hunted areas. While most

species didn’t avoid hiking trails, the predators actually preferred them.

Trade unions

Trade unions originated in Europe during the industrial revolution. Because of the

machinery that had become commonplace, skilled labor became less in demand so

employers had nearly all of the bargaining power. Employers mistreated the workers and

paid them too little for the work they did. Trade unions were organized that would help in

the improvement of working conditions.
