... and aircraft. Radar can do more than find a target. It can tell how fast and in which direction the target is moving. This information can be used to direct the firing of guns and missiles to protect a country against attack. In peacetime, radar can help navigate ships, land planes in a fog, and guide astronauts. Radar can help control street traffic and assist the police in finding speeding automobiles. Radar sets come in many sizes. A small set, made for use in a guided missile, is not much larger than a coffeepot. The larger sets used to study distant planets may oupy a building many stories high.

... the time there are people outside their homes with their cars, lawn mowers or weed eaters that make much more noise than the equipment used by the course itself. The destruction of natural resources is the worst excuse a person could use to say that the golf course is bad for the environment. Golf is one of the best sports for the environment. A majority of the time it uses natural resources and occasionally improves its landscape. A golf course can make an open field of tall grass into a lush, green, tree-lined maze. The idea of destroying animal habitat could be a good argument but most of the time you see more animals come to the course or to the surrounding ...
... of a doctor are to “....listen to patients and give information to patients in a way they can understand.” The importance of good communication skills is two fold. Firstly, it is necessary for a doctor when trying to make a diagnosis to be able to extract information about the patients' injuries or illness and their clinical history. The importance of this listening ability is closely related to a doctor’s clinical competency and is discussed later. The second significance of good communication skills is to find out any worries or apprehensions a patient might have. Many patients (including those interviewed during the C.L.S ward visit) ...
... in music have not been very successful. The whole entertainment business is ruled by trends and, quality seems to have gone out of style To simply lower the price of a CD is a commonly suggested solution, naturally advocated by the buyers. But no business favors such a remedy. Not only since it reduces their income but also because it sends out the wrong signals to people. It gives the impression that the product is worth less and that the customers have been charged too much before.

... many works for students to study, they should quit those professors or schools and seek others who have harsh teaching rules. The changes of the social structure caused people tend to learn the high technology instead of studying arts or literature.

In my opinion, either having a ...
... of a silicon chip starts when silica, the main component of sand, is heated with carbon which makes 98 percent pure silicon. This is then dissolved in hydrochloric acid. The resulting liquid is fractionally distilled to separate almost all of the impurities.The remaining liquid is then heated in a hydrogen tmosphere, which produces the purest silicon possible. This silicon, however, is in the form of many crystals of different sizes and orientations. This silicon goes through the Czochralski pulled crystal process in which it is melted in a large crucible into which a probe, tipped with a small seed crystal is immersed. Silicon atoms attach themselves to the seed ...

... interest in the tattoos of the Pacific, and the practice of tattooing has persisted among seamen. Tattooing techniques vary widely--for example, the Eskimo use bone needles to draw soot-covered thread through the skin, and the Japanese use fine metal needles and multicolored pigments. Scarring, or cicatrization, is most common in the cultures of Africa, Australia, and Melanesia. In the initiation rites of boys among the Nuer of the Sudan, six cuts are made across the forehead and remain for life as scars. Finer tattoolike patterns are chiseled onto the faces of young female initiates of the Kaoka-speakers of the Solomon Islands. In each case the practice serves to ...
