Zero EmissionsSolar energy generated via solar panels (also known as Photovoltaic Solar or PV solar) is one of the most sustainable ways we have of generating energy and electricity today. First and foremost solar panels produce electricity without emissions of any kind. The majority of electricity we use in the United States today is generated from burning coal. Recently there has been a lot excitement around the idea of clean coal‚ but it is important to remember that this technology only exists as

Conflict on a Trading Floor The case describes the ethical dilemma occurred in FirstAmerica Bank. The sales department of the bank was preparing a 700 mln. USD loan contract for one of the bank’s former client: Poseidon Cruise Lines. Poseidon intended to order a large cruise ship for their fleet to a French shipyard‚ which required a contract to be signed for five years and in French francs. This in turn raised concerns in Poseidon management‚ related to the possible economic costs/losses related

Flame Tests Atomic Emission and Electron Energy Levels AES‚ or atomic emission spectroscopy‚ is a method which chemically analyzes the particular wavelength of a sample element to identify and determine the abundance of this certain element. The wavelength of the atomic spectral line unveils the identity of the element while the emitted light intensity is proportional to the number of atoms in the element. The flame test is also a very effective way to identify an individual element. The color

Abstract: Alzheimer disease has become a common disease in aging‚ which accounts for 60 to 80 percent of dementia cases (Qiu‚ Kivipelto & Strauss‚ 2009). β-Amyloid deposition in brain is associated with cognitive decline in aging‚ which is associated with the risk of developing Alzheimer Disease. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol is collected in the walls of blood vessels‚ which can cause blockages and cerebral amyloidosis if the LDL level becomes higher. Since many patients with cerebral

The dichotic listening test is non-invasive‚ and it is just as accurate an indicator of primary language center hemisphere as the sodium amytal test method. Functional brain imaging uses positron emission tomography (PET) or functional MRI to measure brain activity while the subject is performing an activity such as reading; typically‚ functional brain imaging used on language tests reveals more activity in the left hemisphere.

The brain imaging technologies that will be examined are electroencephalography (EEP)‚ functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)‚ magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‚ and positron emission tomography (PET). These brain imaging technologies are either functional or structural. Functional BIT’s are ones that are used to identify metabolic disease and lesions on a finer scale‚ while structural BIT’s are ones that deal with the structural
