Electronic Commerce
... she predicts that it will continue to grow at an even faster rate, as more and more products become available online and that knowledge of Internet commerce is really happening. (34)
One of the major reasons that this industry is booming is because purchasing over the Internet has been made very easy compared to the traditional way of shopping. Ordinarily a consumer will take the kids and pile in the family car and head to the local shopping mall. Once they get there they will find what they are looking for only to be told by the rude, pushy sales person that it is out of stock. After they get pushed into someth ...

BETA PICTORIS: PLANETS? LIFE? OR WHAT?
... to be yes.
Scientists believe that a newly formed star is immediately surrounded by a
relatively dense cloud of gas and dust. In 1965, A. Poveda stated, “That new
stars are likely to be obscured by this envelope of gas and dust (1).” In 1967,
Davidson and Harwit agreed with Poveda and then termed this occurrence, the “
cocoon nebula” (1). Other authors have referred to this occurrence as, a “
placental nebula” (1), noting that it sustains the growth of planetary bodies.
For a long time, even before there was the term cocoon nebula, planetary
scientists knew that a cocoon nebula had surroun ...

God Guided Evolution
... ground is the theory that a supreme being guided the evolutionary path of all organisms to their current status. Through reading the Holy Bible, and studying numerous science authorities, logical deductions can be made that would help one form his own opinion on the matter. One might go so far to say as science and the Bible are God’s most basic forms of communication with the human; thus scientific 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 ...

Global Warming -.
... is real and that it is caused by human activity. Further, it presupposes that the potential damage caused by global warming would greatly outweigh the damage caused to the economy by severely restricting energy use. Finally, his position assumes that the agreement will significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions worldwide and will prevent global warming.

Deforestation In The Brazilian Amazon
... a major problem and
that deforestation provides a source of revenue for people who need it. In
reality, deforestation has few advantages all of which are in the short
term, it has terrible consequences and its long term effects are
devastating, this is why it should be stopped.
Since its discovery, 30% of Brazil's rain forests have disappeared, and the
country is still losing more rain forest each year than any other on the
planet. Brazilian forests are burned or felled at the rate of 1800
hectares (about 4500 acres) every hour! (Dwyer 39) Deforestation started
hundreds of years ago, but only became a major probl ...

The China Syndrome
... a Nuclear Power convention there was
a car following Jack. Jack went to the Ventanna Nuclear Power Plant to hide from
the people following him. After arriving, Jack went to the control room to find
that the people running the plant were making a big mistake. He saw the people
raising the power back up to 100%. He tried to explain that there could be
another accident if they raised the power all the way because of a problem with
the pumps. The people didn't believe Jack and were starting to raise the power
up again. When Jack saw what they were doing he grabbed the security officer's
gun and forced everyone out of the ...

Diamonds
... different. Diamond is the hardest known substance and is usually light colored and transparent, while graphite is greasy, easily powdered, and very dark in color. Diamond is the hardest gem on Mohs’ hardness scale and graphite is the softest. Diamond is very hard because of its dense packing and interlocking atomic arrangement. Graphite, on the other hand, although it is the same element, is more loosely packed and has a six-sided, layered configuration, which makes it soft (Pough, 1991). The differences between graphite and are accounted for by the conditions in which they are created.

... conjunction with
the term general lineage, together they help explain the how one species became
another.
"General lineage":
This is a sequence of similar genera or families, linking an older to a very
different younger group. Each step in the sequence consists of some fossils that
represent certain genus or family, and the whole sequence often covers a span of
tens of millions of years. A lineage like this shows obvious intermediates for
every major structural change, and the fossils occur roughly (but often not
exactly) in the expected order. However, usually there are still gaps between
each of the groups. Somet ...

Air Polution
... is the presence in the atmosphere of harmful gases, liquids, or solids.
Air pollution, known as smoke pollution for many years, resulted from coal
combustion (Hodges 526). Smog has been a problem in coal-burning areas for
several centuries. Smog finally decreased when coal combustion was replaced by
oil and gas combustion. Air pollution is caused by a number of different types
of pollutants. The first type, particulate matter, consists of solid and liquid
aerosols suspended in the atmosphere. These arise from the burning of coal and
from industrial processes. Atmospheric particles can scatter and absorb sunlight
