Young People Drug Free
1,765 wordsWeve all seen them before. Maybe at a bus stop, in our schools, or at the coffee shop.

It could be that their headphones seem permanently glued to their ears and that theyre never afraid to groove on the sidewalk. Whatever the reason, you know that they are not quite n...

His total assets were quickly converted to New Yen, a fat sheaf of the old paper currency that circulated endlessly through the closed circuit of the world's black markets like the seashells of the Trobriand islanders. It was difficult to transact legitimate business with cash in the Sprawl; in Japan, it was already illegal. In Japan, he'd known with a clenched and absolute certainty, he'd find his cure. In Chiba.

Mind Won T
1,599 wordsMusic is an important part of every film. Even before there were? talking pictures? the filmmakers used music as background noise to help tell the story. With or without words music can be so powerful that it increases the intensity of the film immensely. Can you imagine Fantasia without all of its classical scores?

1995 Dodge Neon Descriptive Narrative Car
604 wordsI Descriptive Narrative Descriptive Narrative I remember that cold day in October three years ago as I walked down the endless rows of new and used cars. I was oblivious to the sounds of the congested afternoon traffic around me. All that was on my mind was anticipation, a little hope, and a checkbook in my pocket that seemed to weigh so heavy despite the lack of funds it represented. It was only a matter of time before one of the salesmen would notice me wandering aimlessly through the car lot ...

Back And Forth Stimulated Emission
1,080 wordsThe light from lasers differs from ordinary light in several important aspects. Ordinary light from a light bulb travels randomly in all directions (unless the bulb is equipped with an integral reflector that directs the light). The light is thus incoherent. Even when incoherent light is directed with a reflector, it still spreads rapidly. The light from a laser is temporary and spatially coherent. This means that all of the wave-fronts of light are lined up in time and space (see Diagrams). The...

Stimulated Emission Nobel Prize
1,216 wordsThe Wonderful World of Lasers Laser stands for Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation. Lasers work by producing an intense beam of bright light that travels in one direction.

Solid State Lasers Funk And Wagnalls

The word laser is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. The history of the laser is very interesting. Lasers have changed immensely since they were first invented. Before the laser was invented, Charle...

Quot Quot Avant Garde
5,115 wordsNeal Bowers This is not collage, because the assorted elements are not reduced to static snapshots of the city. Instead, they appear and pass away as OHara walks through them. The effect is something like a motion picture, with OHara in each frame. Saying what all the details mean is easy they mean whatever they are, and their importance lies in their randomness and transience Everything has equal significance Puerto Ricans, dead friends, a warehouse and OHara, caught up in the fullness of such ...

Earths Atmosphere Boiling Point
469 wordsNeon was discovered in 1898 by British chemists Sir William Ramsay and Morris W. Travers as a component of the most volatile fraction of liquefied crude argon obtained from air. Upon applying an electric current to it, the chemists found that it had an orange glow, and they decided that it was not argon, but rather a new element altogether. Neon is not a very common element, but the places it is most abundant in are the earths atmosphere, and trapped within rocks in the earths crust. The place w...

Las Vegas Slot Machines
4,220 wordsSuicide in Las Vega Hell is expensive. This is my first thought as my plane lands in Las Vegas. The Luxor hotels glass pyramid seems dangerously close to the runways edge, as do its chocolate-and-gold sphinx and rows of shaved palms. I wonder if these rooms tremble when jets land. Behind the Luxor are mountains kissed by dust the hue of bone; to its left lies the Strip, where color is so bright it looks like it has died, rotted, and come back as a poisonous flower. I have been forewarned. First,...
