This time-consuming procedure is avoided in the modern 35-mm single-lens reflex cameras by placing the screen in a special housing on top of the camera. Inside the camera there is a movable mirror that bounces the image from the lens to the screen for viewing and focusing, and then flips out of the way when the shutter is tripped, so that the image hits the fi .....

Hurricanes
Number of words: 594 - Number of pages: 3.... the storm center, for the same reason that the air swirls
around a tornado center.
As this air swirls in over the sea surface, it soaks up more and more
water vapour. At the storm center, this new supply of water vapor gets
pulled into the thunderhead updrafts, releasing still more energy as the
water vapor condenses. This makes the updrafts rise faster, pulling in even
larger amounts of air and water vapor from the storm's edges. And as the
updrafts speed up, air swirls faster and faster around the storm center.
The storm clouds, moving with the swirling air, form a coil.

Who Is Raising The Chindren
Number of words: 488 - Number of pages: 2.... of children is watching more hours per day than any generation before it. In order to achieve higher ratings and a larger audience, television is pushing the limits of behavior and morality. When children are left with television as their main influence, a child does
not receive a proper sense of reality. The examples of adult behavior they see are distorted. Violent behavior, disrespect for others, and authority are glamorized by the entertainment directed toward youth. Television is a convenient way to keep a child busy, but without a parent around to monitor what is being watched, .....

Young Voters Showing Apathy
Number of words: 872 - Number of pages: 4.... presidential elections with 38.5 percent voting in the 1996 Clinton-Dole showdown, it is still worrying that not even half the eligible voters in that age group exercised their right to vote. The 60s, on the other hand, saw more than half of 11 million young voters, taking to the polls. We clearly have a lost of interest in politics among America's young adults. Most young adults today would rather watch MTV's "The Real World" than the evening news. For many young adults, especially those in school, too many other events are more important than voting. The top priority of most student .....

Fine Automobiles (persuasive)
Number of words: 552 - Number of pages: 3.... much of what the cavemen of the past thought about, such as the sun. So, now that the sun is no big deal, what is? The eye catching object is the automobile. That is man's current attraction, even if that attraction lasts for a split second.
Today a car is practically a necessity, not an absolute one, yet with the nature of work it has a definite play in modern life. Cars are safer than ever before. With crash safety devices such as multiple airbags and crush zones to ensure survival it's tough to think of purchasing a less safe automobile. Despite the flashy appearance of some of the p .....

Facts That Lead To Poverty: Th
Number of words: 1879 - Number of pages: 7.... These were witnessed by thousands of people through TV, radio, newspaper, journals, etc. “In the early 1980s, the mass media dramatically brought us the picture of hunger from Africa – starving children, skin and bone, with their bloated bellies, too weak to even stand up.” (Warnock p.1) At the same time, people living in more developed countries or wealthy states are enjoying different kinds of delicious meals and dumping whatever they don’t like.

Evolution Of Profanity
Number of words: 1433 - Number of pages: 6.... probably one of many reasons that his works
were and are so popular. "Shakespeare pushed a lot of buttons in his
day- which is one reason he was so phenomenally popular. Despite what
they tell you, people like having their buttons pushed" (Macrone 6).
Because his works contained so many of these profane words or phrases,
they were censored to protect the innocent minds of the teenagers who

offensive. Almost all of the profanity was removed, and that that was
not had just reason for being there. .....
