... progression towards a belief in atoms promoted the deduction of atoms throughout centuries. Nowadays, the atom is universally believed by people to exist as the result of scientific evidence. In contrast, ¡¥qi¡¦ is not believed to be a scientific phenomena and is considered a religious or superstitious belief. As a result, in order to demonstrate the existence of ¡¥qi¡¦ and make it conceivable by modern physicists, the use of the scientific method becomes the qi researchers¡¦ best tool. In addition, while qi and the atom were both conceived by ancient philosophers, the notion of the atom was better de ...

... the government and the people is and was at stake. Since it will never really be known what went on in Roswell in 1947, the American people may never fully trust the government again. The Roswell incident is a very sketchy ordeal in which many people have different accounts. There is and was never any doubt that something crash landed. On July 8, 1947 the headline of the Roswell Daily Record read "RAAF Captures Flying Saucer on Ranch in Roswell Region." The next day, the headlines read "Weather balloon was mistaken as UFO." Many people wonder how someone with military experience could mistake a weather bal ...

... health problems including cancer, decreased fertility, and abnormalities in newborns. Evidence provided to support these claims of human and wildlife harm is largely from laboratory studies in which large doses are fed to test animals, usually rats or mice, and field studies of wildlife species that have been exposed to the chemicals mentioned above. In laboratory studies, high doses are required to give weak hormone activity. These doses are not 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 mil ...

... able to benefit the treatment of a series of different illnesses. In addition, this form of may possibly prove to be fitting in order to manufacture pharmaceutical drugs. On the other hand, Dolly has also brought forth disgust and dismay. animals reflects a lack of respect for the individual animal's integrity and that the application of such technology will result in undesirable shifts in our view of how we may treat animals and how radically we can meddle with nature in general. Furthermore, it is stressed that, whatever potential uses it may be put to at some future stage, the technique raises a long string of ...

... rocks in comparison to the rest of space bodies, but vary from the size of bird house, to the size of a small piece of real estate. Asteroids usually travel in groups and sometimes form asteroid belts that can wrap around an entire solar system. There are about 150 known asteroids that travel in a path near the earth, and they are actually called, "near-earth" asteroids. About 10 percent are bound to hit earth eventually. Asteroids ranging from fine dust, to house size rocks make up the belt around Saturn, and the belt on the outside of the orbit of Mars. These are pieces of larger rocks that were crashed into t ...

... being either very limited or very general in scope. This explains the ineffectiveness of the emotional approach and the political generality does not adequately define the project. The end result is the making of a mountain out of a molehill where the emphasis is on the exaggeration and reiteration of minor differences while ignoring what they have in common. Technocracy partakes one single element 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 t ...

... the world for thousands of years. The first alcoholic beverages were fermented. Scenes showing fermentation appear on pottery made in Mesopotamia as early as 4200 B.C. Mankind early discovered that drinking the fermented juices of certain fruits, berries, and grain produced an extremely pleasant effect. Among primitive peoples, alcoholic drinks increased the excitement of tribal festivals. In more civilized nations, beers and wines in the daily diet were believed beneficial to health. During the 1800’s, a movement began in the United States to prohibit the manufacture and sale of alcoholic beverages. A constitut ...

... is another important factor. The more exercise people get the lower the risk of heart disease. Part of the reason for this is the fact that people that exercise tend to have more healthy lifestyles, which include lower levels of alcohol use and lower fat diets. My stepfather had coronary heart disease. He talked about it freely before he passed away. Over the course of 10 years he had two triple bypass surgeries. He believed he contracted the disease due to poor diet, smoking and a family history of the disease. Throughout the entire time his outlook remained very positive. There were several dramatic changes that t ...

... water. It is a clear gas. When NO is exposed to air, it mixes with oxygen, yielding nitrogen IV dioxide, a brown gas which is soluble in water. These are just a few of the chemical properties of nitric oxide. With the total life expectancy of nitric oxide being from six to ten seconds, it is not surprising that it has not been until recently that it was discovered in the body. The compound is quickly converted into nitrates and nitrites by oxygen and water. Yet even its short-lived life, it has found many functions within the body. Nitric oxide enables white blood cells to kill tumor cells and bacteria, and it ...

... to be reviewed, examined and scrutinized.” After Clinton said this it was almost as if a scientific boom had occurred. NASA research teams of scientists at Johnson Space Center began to look for life as well. NASA began to send robots and Satellites to Mars. Unfortunately, they found nothing or lost contact with the robots or Satellites in the process. During the year of 1999 NASA sent up two rockets toward Mars and both were failures. Due to the failures, time has been given for scientists to blueprint a credible and step-by-step search for life on the Red Planet. Without the pressure to return ...
