...kinds of COPD; the two kinds of COPD are emphysema and chronic bronchitis, Emphysema is that the walls between the air sacs are damaged, causing them to lose their shape and become soft. The damage also can destroy the walls of the air sacs, leading to fewer and larger air sacs instead of many tiny ones. When this happens, the amount of gas exchange in the lungs is reduced; also the gas will built up into your body which can hurt the rest of the body at the same time. Chronic bronchitis is the lining of the airways is constantly irritated and inflamed. This causes the lining to thicken. When a lot of thick mucus forms in the airways, it makes it hard to breathe. COPD is the most leading cause of death in the USA. Over 12 million people are diagnosed with COPD; many more people may have the disease and not even know it until it is too late.

...Spain has many different ecosystems the Snowcap Mountains of the Pyrenees Mountain, green meadows in Galicia, the orange groves in Valencia and the desert in Aimeria (Graham, 2009). It is a beautiful country but it is hiding a bid secret. Spain has a played a part as has the rest of the world in Global Warming. Global Warming has been a hot debate over the years. The effects of the global environment came to the forefront in the late part of twenty century and have continued to be at the forefront ever since (Youngblood-Coleman, 2013). Global warming starts with environmental degradation. This comes in many different forms but the effects are the same. The greenhouse gas emissions are a big cause of global warming and Spain ranks 18th in the greenhouse gas emissions (Youngblood-Coleman, 2013). The greenhouse gas comes from several different activities such as burning coal, other fossil fuels and removal of forestland (Ward, Mohr, Myers, & Nel, 2012). This has led to a depletion of our ozone layer. The ozone layer prevents ultraviolet radiation from reaching the earth (Max, 2007). Land degradation is another problem with global warming. Land degradation has become a serious concern in Spain. The coastal regions of Spain have seen beach erosions and have dredge sand for the seabed to fill it in (Max, 2007). The beaches to be push back 15 meters but 2050 (Graham, 2009). Spain has to worry about seawater threating the inundate rice paddies. The jellyfish has been coming inland...

Finding Regulations and Agencies

...Finding Regulations and Agencies Letter to Mike Jones, Town Manager Introduction to Legal Research Law Firm 100 Main Street Atlanta, GA 30225 July 2, 2012 Via Certified Mail Mr. Mike Jones McDonough Town Manager 136 Keys Ferry Street McDonough, GA 30253 Re: Drinking water: Lead and Copper Rule Dear Mr. Jones, This law firm represents a group of local citizens currently residing in the city of McDonough, Georgia. Elevated levels of lead in the drinking water have the residents concerned. Many federal regulations have been established in an effort to protect drinking water in the United States. One such regulation is the Lead and Copper Rule, 40 C.F.R. § 141.2 (2011). Drinking water in America is primarily tainted lead and copper by way of plumbing materials. Resulting health problems can range from stomach ailments to brain damage. In 1991 the EPA published the Lead and Copper Rule and this rule has been updated over the years to account for growing knowledge of the effects that these chemicals have on the human body. According to WebMD, if drinking water is contaminated with lead it should not be used for, “…cooking or drinking”. The toxicity levels of lead and copper can be determined by using a test kit. The EPA cites that lead enters drinking when corrosion of pipes, solder, fittings, or brass fixtures and faucets occurs. The simple test kit has been used by many of the McDonough residents and proven that their concerns are...

Boiler Basics

...“Right step of Maintenance is the SOUL™ of efficiency” An ISO 900:2008 Certified Comp. BOILER-BASICS What is a Boiler? Boiler, also called STEAM GENERATOR, is an apparatus designed to convert a liquid to vapor. In a conventional steam power plant, a boiler consists of a furnace in which fuel is burned, surfaces to transmit heat from the combustion products to the water, and a space where steam can form and collect. A conventional boiler has a furnace that burns a fossil fuel or, in some installations, waste fuels. A nuclear reactor can also serve as a source of heat for generating steam under pressure. Boilers were built as early as the 1st century AD by Hero of Alexandria but were used only as toys. Not until the 17th century was serious consideration given to the potential of steam power for practical work. Denis Papin of France designed the first boiler with a safety valve in 1679; boilers were made of wrought iron; as the advantages of high pressure and temperature were realized, manufactures turned to steel. Modern boilers are made of alloy steel to withstand high pressures and extremely high temperatures. Most conventional steam boilers are classed as either fire-tube or water tube types. In the fire-tube type, the water surrounds the steel tubes through which hot gases from the furnace flow. The steam generated collects above the water level in a cylindrically shaped drum. A safety valve is set to allow escape of steam at pressures above normal operating pressure;...

Pros and Cons of Nucelar Energy

...its lifetime. In contrast, coal-fired plants produce close to 2 billion tons of carbon dioxide every year in the U.S. alone while also emitting lots of other pollution: soot that causes lung diseases; sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides that cause smog and acid rain; and mercury that contaminates fish. In fact, coal kills 4000 times as many people as nuclear power, according to one analysis. 2) It is possible to generate a high amount of electrical energy in one single plant. 3) This technology is readily available. Disadvantages 1) Uranium Waste- The chief danger lies with the mining waste; it contains radium, which is highly radioactive. Radon gas (one of the products that occur after radium undergoes radioactive decay) can expose workers and nearby and nearby communities to an array of health risks like lung cancer, bone cancer and lymphoma. 2) The energy source for nuclear energy is Uranium, which is a scarce resource. It’s supply is estimated to last only for the next 30 to 60 years depending on the actual demand. 3) Nuclear power plants as well as nuclear waste could be preferred targets for terrorist attacks. 4) Risk of Catastrophe- Fukushima has joined Three Mile Island and Chernobyl in the vocabulary of dangerous nuclear mishaps. The explosion at Chernobyl’s nuclear plant in the Ukraine showed how nuclear energy could just as easily destroy us as it nurtures our everyday...

Intro to Physical Science

...Lab Research Report 1: Procedures in the Physical Sciences Robert Hugee Professor Brian McCann SCI110024VA016-1134-001: Introduction To Physical Science April 25, 2013 One of the underlying challenges in astronomy measurement is the determination of precise distances. Without a knowledge of its distance, the size of an observed object in space would remain nothing more than an angular diameter, and the brightness of a star could not be converted into its true radiated power, or luminosity .astronomy. (2013).  Direct measurement of the wavefunction had also long been deemed impossible because of the key tenet of the uncertainty principle. University of Rochester (2013, March 3). Getting around the uncertainty principle: Physicists make first direct measurements of polarization states of light. ScienceDaily. Large-scale surveying & mapping problems are also key challenges in making direct Measurements in astronomy. Pogge R.(2006) One of the indirect forms that the scientists have used is to resort to GEOMETRY to find the Distance. Parallax is one of the indirect methods where astronomers can measure the position of a nearby star very carefully with respect to more distant stars behind it, then measuring those distances again six months later when the Earth is on the opposite side of its orbit. Allen J.,Boyd P. (1997,April 15) The limitation of parallax is that it just gives distances to stars tp up to a few thousand light Years and beyond those...
