.... was "dead," because the scientific establishment, the hot fusion community, and many in the news media have ignored the continuing cold fusion research. But cold fusion is far from dead. It is alive not only in dozens of laboratories in the United States, but in numerous foreign research centers, particularly in Japan. Cold fusion is a real but still incompletely explained energy-producing phenomenon that occurs when ordinary hydrogen and the special form of hydrogen called deuterium are brought together with metals, such as palladium, titanium, and nickel. Usually, some triggering mechanism, such as electricity or even acoustic energy, is required to provoke .....

.... definition of a clone is an organism that has the same genetic information as another organism or organisms. On February 22, 1997 the first mammal to ever was cloned at the Roslin Institute in Edinburg, Scotland(Staples). It was a sheep by the name of Dolly. Dolly was cloned from an adult sheep; using donor DNA and mammary cells from a female sheep cloned it. The process is very technical and I don’t fully understand it myself. From what I have researched I have come to understand that currently cloning is very “Hit or Miss”(Hawley). From 277 attempts, Dolly was the only successful attempt. The point is however that we now have a man created shee .....

.... to be protected from all of the factors that are making it disappear. There are many factors that affect how quickly the ozone depletes. The main problem with the decaying ozone layer consists of people being careless. Many times, the chemicals released into the air by people drift into the ozone and form harmful chemical bonds with ozone molecules. One example would be chlorofluorocarbons or CFC's. CFC's were commonly found in spray cans during the early 1970's but were invented in the 1920's. They contain chlorine, fluorine, and carbon atoms which all form bonds with the rare ozone molecules. A few more products with CFC's are coolants for refri .....

.... those stem cells in the brains of living patients, and shows that these cells can be stimulated to turn into new neurons, principal author Dr. Steven A. Goldman told Reuters Health. In addition, it may lead to the development of drugs that would stimulate the formation of new brain cells in people with Alzheimer's or other diseases where brain cells degenerate, he commented. Goldman noted that the use of drugs to stimulate proliferation of new brain cells will probably result in a more successful strategy than attempting to grow the cells outside the body and then placing them back into the brains of patients, as some scientists hav .....

.... or centimeters. The standard method of co-ordinates gives a product which is compatible with other systems. One co-ordinate point might represent 1/10 of a millimeter in actual space. Then 1 millimeter is 10 co-ordinate points. CADD systems were developed along with the computer. They were developed very slowly. They went from being very large, clumsy, elaborate machines which needed lots of human intervention to one program on a floppy disk. When the power of computers increased, so did the possibilities of CADD. Images on CADD systems are drawn with the aid of a keyboard, mouse, or tracking ball. One selects the starting point of a line, the endin .....

.... manner. The most economic and effective way to handle these has been to employ pesticides, many of which are now composed of synthetic chemicals, and it is these substances - very beneficial from the economic and production aspects of farming - which can pose risks to human health and the environment if not properly used. Pest problems are not new; in fact, they have been around as long as agriculture itself. But the pest pressure faced by farmers is now as great as it ever was: the world's fast-growing human population needs to be fed from an always shrinking base of agricultural land, and the substantial damage that can be inflicted by pests (e.g. insects, .....

.... In the simplest model of the atom, electrons orbit a central nucleus, composed of protons and neutrons. each electron carries one negative charge and each proton one positive charge. Neutrons carry no charge. Every atom has the same number of electrons as there are protons, so, on the whole, it is electrically neutral. The electrons have discrete kinetic energy levels, which increase with the orbital radius. When atoms bond together to form a solid, the electron energy levels merge into bands. In electrical conductors, these bands are continuous but in insulators and semiconductors there is an "energy gap", in which no electron orbits can exist, between .....

.... which will help reduce damage to the environment. The process of catalysis is essential to the modern day manufacturing industry. Ninety per cent, over a trillion dollars' worth, of manufactured items are produced with the help of catalysts every year. It is therefore logical that scientists are constantly searching for new improved catalysts which will improve efficiency or produce a greater yield. An acidic catalyst works due its acid nature. Catalysts are strong acids and readily give up hydrogen ions, or protons: H+. Protons can be released from hydrated ions, for example H3O+, but more commonly they are released from ionisable hydroxyl groups (R-OH) wh .....
