... from exercise than a natural athlete, so they can return to the gym sooner for another workout. So that means less work equals more muscle gain, compared to working out normally with no supplement. Who wouldn’t want that? Think about all the pain you wouldn’t have to go through doing all those reps. With a performance enhancing drug, you could do even less, get the same results and even better. Today more than ever, performance enhancing drugs and supplements are being abused. It is estimated that 99% of all professional bodybuilders are using steroids, or some type of performance enhancing drug. Many people are drawn to these “bulking up drugs” simply beca ...

... example, the population dropped from around 125 million to 90 million over the course of the 14 century. The plague moved along the caravan routes toward the West. By 1345 it had made it’s way to the lower Volga River. By early 1347 it was in Constantinople. It hit Alexandria in the autumn of that year, and by spring 1348, a thousand people a day were dying there. In Cairo, Egypt, the count was seven times that. The disease traveled by ship as readily as by land and it was no sooner in the eastern Mediterranean than it was in the western end as well. Already in 1347, the plague had hit Sicily. By winter the plague had reached mainland Italy. By January of 13 ...

... not completely understood, it is known that it has something to do with a neurological or biochemical dysfunction. Contrary to what was originally thought, autism is not a form of mental retardation. It manifests itself in varying degrees of severity, from profound to mild. Dr. Temple Grandin is an assistant professor at Colorado State University who was diagnosed as autistic at a young age, yet with proper help, she continued through school and earned a Ph.D. Autism is usually diagnosed in the first three years of life. Early indication of autism may be seen in one or more ways. First, there is a lack of response to other people. This can be as simple as not ackn ...

... existing copper telephone lines. Using an analog modem, data is translated from its digital form to an analog signal, to travel over the telephone lines. Once it gets to its destination, the data is converted back into its digital form. Line noise is a result of data being transmitted as an analog signal. The FCC imposed limitations, decades ago, to minimize the amount of line noise that was allowed. This law was imposed long before the PC ever existed. However, it directly affects how fast we can access the Internet today, at speeds of only 53kbps. Even that connection speed is theoretical. Depending on the quality of the telephone lines that run into your ...

... programs assess local conditions, including climate, crop characteristics, the biology of the pest species, and soil quality, to determine the best method of pest control. Tactics employed include better tillage to prevent soil erosion and introduction of beneficial insects that eat harmful species. Many pests that are attached to crop residues can be eliminated by plowing them underground. Simple paper or plastic barriers placed around fruit trees deter insects, which can also be attracted to light traps and destroyed. Weeds can be controlled by spreading grass, leaf, or black plastic mulch. Weeds also may be pulled or hoed from the soil. Many biological controls ...

... the percent recovery of each from the mixture. 4) Separation of a Neutral and Basic Substance A mixture of equal parts of a neutral substance containing either naphthalene or benzoin and a basic substance containing either 4-chloroaniline or ethyl 4-aminobenzoate were to be separated by extraction from an ether solution. Once the separation took place, and crystallization was carried out, it became possible to determine what components were in the unknown mixture, by means of a melting point determination.

... without a degree. Galileo was a math tutor for the next four years in Florence. He spent a lot of the four years studying the scientific thoughts and philosophies of Aristotle. He also invented an instrument that could find the gravity of objects. This instrument, called a hydrostatic balance, was used by weighing the objects in water. Galileo returned to Pisa in 1589 and became a professor in math. He taught courses in astronomy at the University of Pisa, based on Ptolemy's theory that the sun and all of the planets move around the earth. Teaching these courses, he became more understanding of astronomy. In 1592, the University of Padua gave him a pro ...

... 6.5 miles above the planet's surface. The troposphere contains the oxygen that we breath and is where a majority of our weather takes place. Beyond the troposphere is the second region of the atmosphere, the stratosphere. The stratosphere extends from roughly 6.5-30 miles from the earth's' surface. The air on this region is much less dense than in the troposphere, and it's a lot drier. The stratosphere is the area that contains the majority of the ozone layer. Past the stratosphere is the mesosphere which extends to 50 miles above the planet. The last region is the thermosphere. The thermosphere's outermost edge is roughly 600 miles above the surface of the ...

... forests, but as these forests die back they will trigger the release of vast quantities of carbon dioxide stored in vegetation and forest soils. This will add further to the climate change problem. Experts hope that this new way to cut back on these CO2 emissions will not be costly and time consuming. Dry air is made up of about 78 percent nitrogen and 21 percent oxygen. For living things, the two most important gases are oxygen and carbon dioxide. All plants and animals in respiration use oxygen. Respiration is the process by which food is changed to energy. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make sugar and starches. Thus nature restores oxygen and ...

... years ago, toward the end of the Mesozoic, The Age of Reptiles . It was among the last of the dinosaur species evolve before the Cretaceous- Tertiary extinction 65 million years ago. BEHAVIOR: Triceratops was probably a herding animal, like the other Cartesians. This hypothesis is supported by the fining of bone beds, large deposits of bones of the same species in am area. Triceratops hatched from eggs, which may have been cared for by adults. Which threatened by predators, Triceratops probably changed into its enemy, like the modern-day rhinoceros does. This was probably a very effective defense. DIET, TEETH, ADN TRICERATOPS POSITION IN THE FOOD CHAI ...
