.... of Wisconsin-Madison explains that knowledge can be used as a weapon or as a tool (DeTienne 462). For instance monitoring abuse can be found in the in the situation of airline agents. The agents discovered that by keeping customers on hold while finishing their work they could gain an extra 5-minute break (De Tienne 462). In the future these evasions of work will be stopped and for this reason "employee's who are accustomed to evading the monitoring system may no longer be able to tolerate it" (De Tienne 463). These types of employees may find they can no longer survive the added pressu .....

.... in that it is dependent on the voluntary association of individuals acting upon certain ideas upon which they are in agreement. Comparatively it differs from all other social movements since its common ideas are not the result of philosophic agreement. Technocracy does in fact in theory need science and technology to be based upon, but it is this “science and technology” that the populace overlooks and assumes it as engineered technology. Ideas of engineering are in fact in our bones and part of human nature and experience (Petroski preface). This statement by Petroski is the v .....

.... that has radon dissolved in it. This can be a hazard if the water is agitated or heated, allowing the gas to escape and elevate the levels that are in the building.(6) Health Risk The Surgeon General's office reports that indoor radon gas is a national health problem. This gas causes thousands of deaths every year.(7) These deaths are a result of lung cancer, which is caused by the radioactive particles that make up the gas.(8) The likelihood of getting lung cancer from radon depends on: the concentration that you are exposed to, the amount of time that you are exposed, and whether .....

.... like are inherited from your parents. Your potential is also inherited from your parents. Chromosomes contain the information of a person's potential height, potential strength against disease, and other physical characteristics. A human being has 23 pairs of chromosomes in every cell in his or her body (except reproductive cells). If, during a stage of growth, a fetus somehow loses one of these chromosomes, the baby may die, or have a birth defect. Since this error is written on their genes, they may pass it on to their children, who may or may not have anything wrong with them. .....

.... Pavlov sat behind a one-way mirror and controlled the presentation of a bell. The bell was the conditioned stimulus. A conditioned stimulus was an originally neutral stimulus that could eventually produce a desired response when presented alone. Directly after the ringing of the bell, Pavlov gave the dog food. The food was the unconditioned stimulus. This means that the food caused an uncontrollable response whenever it was presented alone. That response would be the salivation of the dog. A tube that was in the dog's mouth then measured the saliva. When the unconditioned sti .....

.... in the past, nor will there be change in the future. This model assumes the perfect cosmological principle. This principle says that the universe is the same everywhere on the large scale, at all times.2 It maintains the same average density of matter forever. There are observational evidences found that can prove the model is more reasonable than the Steady State model. First, the redshifts of distant galaxies. Redshift is a Doppler effect which states that if a galaxy is moving away, the spectral line of that galaxy observed will have a shift to the red end. The faster the galaxy moves, t .....

.... almost a quarter of all mammal species, and most are highly beneficial. 7. Worldwide, bats are the most important natural enemies of night- flying insects! 8. A single brown bat can catch over 600 mosquitoes in just one hour! 9. Tropical bats are key elements in rain forest ecosystems which rely on them to pollinate flowers and disperse seeds for countless trees and shrubs. 10. Bat droppings in caves support whole ecosystems of unique organisms, including bacteria useful in detoxifying wastes, improving detergents, and producing gasohol and antibiotics. 11. More than 50% of American bat .....

.... rate of revolution around the earth was accelerating overtime. John Harrison was a simple clockmaker and a self-educated person who was accredited for finding by means of a timekeeper. John built his first pendulum watch in 1713. It was constructed entirely out of wood. Harrison called his first sea clock Harrison’s No. 1 or H-1 for short. H-1 was bar-shaped, built out of shinny brass, and was big in size. His second attempt was called H-2. H-2 was a heavy weight of 86 pounds, but fitted into a small box as John promised it would. H-2 was also bar-shaped and included an imp .....

(Education Dep. Properties: Chemical). Often, it can even be classified as a different type of . Commercial es are found in six basic categories, soda-lime , lead , borosilicate , aluminum silicate , ninety-six percent and fused silica . Soda-lime is the most common and least expensive . Approximately ninety percent of all is soda-lime . Soda-lime contains .....

.... deduction of the Bible should allow us to solve the mystery of man’s and the universe’s origins. A very highly debated topic within the bigger argument is, “What started it all?” Creationists believe that God merely spoke all that we know into existence, but evolutionists prefer to believe a massive, random explosion spawned the cosmos. Obviously, a middle-grounder could find both preposterous. The very first line of the Holy Bible states, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” For such a massive, random occurrence on the evolution side is quite hard .....
