Given

Find
Determine the limit of the given function $$\boldsymbol{F(x)}$$ and plot it in the interval $$\mathbf{} \left [ 0,1 \right ]$$

Problem Statement
Pg. 7-1

$$\frac{\mathbf{[e^x -1]}}{\boldsymbol{x}} = \boldsymbol{\frac{1}{x}[e^x-1]} = \boldsymbol{f(x)}$$

1) Expand $$\exp^{x}$$ in Taylor Series w/ remainder:

$$ \boldsymbol{R(x) = \frac{(x-0)^{n+1}}{(n+1)!}exp \left[ \zeta(x) \right] }$$

2) Find Taylor Series Expansion and Remainder of f(x). eq. 4 of p 6-3.--Egm6341.s10.team2.niki 02:26, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Solution
Given:

$$\boldsymbol{P_{n}(x)=f(x_{0})+\frac{(x-x_{0})}{1!}f^{(1)}(x_{0})+...+\frac{(x-x_{0})^{n}}{n!}f^{(n)}(x_{0})}$$[equation 4 p 2-2]

$$ \boldsymbol{R(x) = \frac{(x-0)^{n+1}}{(n+1)!}exp \left[ \zeta(x) \right] }$$ [equation 1 p 2-3]

Part 1
$$\boldsymbol{P_{n}(x)=e^{x_{0}}+\frac{(x-x_{0})}{1!}e^{x_{0}}+...+\frac{(x-x_{0})^{n}}{n!}e^{x_{0}}}$$

for the case that $$x_{0}=0$$, we get,

$$\boldsymbol{P_{n}(x)=1+\frac{(x)}{1!}+...+\frac{(x)^{n}}{n!}}$$

$$\boldsymbol{P_{n}(x)}$$ =$$\boldsymbol{\sum_{j=0}^{\infty }\frac{x^{j}}{j!}}$$

Using equation 1 p 2-3, we get the remainder as

$$ \boldsymbol{R_{n+1}(x) = \frac{(x-x_{0})^{n+1}}{(n+1)!}f^{(n+1)} (\zeta(x))}$$

for $$x_{0}=0$$, we get

$$\boldsymbol{R_{n+1}(x) = \frac{(x)^{n+1}}{(n+1)!}f^{(n+1)} (\zeta(x))}$$

finally, $$\boldsymbol{f(x)= e^x = \sum_{j=1}^{\infty } \frac{x^{j}}{j!} + \frac{(x)^{n+1}}{(n+1)!}f^{(n+1)} (\zeta(x))}$$

Part 2
$$\boldsymbol{f(x)=\frac{1}{x}[e^{x}-1]}$$

$$\boldsymbol{e^{x}=\sum_{j=0}^{\infty }\frac{x^j}{j!} = 1+ \frac{x}{1!}+\frac{x^2}{2!}+...+\frac{x^n}{n!}}$$

$$\therefore \boldsymbol{[e^x -1]= \frac{x}{1!}+\frac{x^2}{2!}+...+\frac{x^n}{n!}}$$

dividing both sides by x we get,

$$\boldsymbol{\frac{[e^x - 1]}{x} = f(x) = \sum_{j=1}^{\infty } \frac{x^{j-1}}{j!}}$$

and remainder becomes

$$\boldsymbol{R_{n+1}(x) = \frac{(x)^{n}}{(n+1)!}f^{(n+1)} (\zeta(x))}$$

since $$x_{0}= 0$$, we have

$$\boldsymbol{R_{n+1}(x) = \frac{(x)^{n}}{(n+1)!}f^{(n+1)} (\zeta(x)}$$ where $$\zeta (x) )\epsilon [0,x]$$

Finally,

$$\boldsymbol{f(x)= \frac{[e^x -1 ]}{x} = \sum_{j=1}^{\infty } \frac{x^{j-1}}{j!} + \frac{(x)^{n}}{(n+1)!}f^{(n+1)} (\zeta(x))}$$

Problem Statement
Pg 5-1.

Prove the Integral Mean Value Theorem (IMVT) p. 2-3 for w(.) non-negative. i.e $$\ w\geq0 $$

Solution
We have the IMVT as

$$\boldsymbol{ \int_{a}^{b} f(x)w(x)dx = f(\xi )\int_{a}^{b} w(x)dx}$$

For a given function $$\boldsymbol{f(x)}$$ Let m be the minimum of the function and M be the maximum of the same function

Then we know that, $$\boldsymbol{m \leq f(x)\leq M}$$

multiplying the inequality throughout by $$\boldsymbol{w(x) \geq 0}$$ and integrating between $$\boldsymbol{[a,b]}$$ we get

$$\boldsymbol{\int_{a}^{b}m. w(x)dx = \int_{a}^{b} f(x).w(x)dx = \int_{a}^{b}M.w(x)dx}$$

$$\boldsymbol{m\int_{a}^{b} w(x)dx = \int_{a}^{b} f(x).w(x)dx = M\int_{a}^{b}w(x)dx}$$

writing $$\boldsymbol{\int_{a}^{b}w(x) = I}$$, we get

$$\boldsymbol{mI\leq \int_{a}^{b} f(x)w(x)dx \leq MI}$$

It is seen that when w(x) = 0, the result is valid. Consider the case when w(x) > 0

dividing throughout by $$\boldsymbol{I}$$

$$\boldsymbol{m\leq \frac{1}{I}\int_{a}^{b} f(x)w(x)dx \leq M}$$

From the Intermediate Value Theorem, we know that there exists $$\boldsymbol{\xi \epsilon[a,b] }$$ such that

$$\boldsymbol{f(\xi )= \frac{1}{I}\int_{a}^{b} f(x)w(x)dx}$$

i.e

$$\boldsymbol{f(\xi )\int_{a}^{b} w(x)dx= \int_{a}^{b} f(x)w(x)dx}$$

Hence Proved --Egm6341.s10.team2.niki 02:28, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Project
<The Ugliness of Conventional Farming Aj (Tuan Le) During the Great Depression, food became a very costly commodity due failures in food cultivation caused by dust bowls and droughts. Hence, death rate became so high and food supplies gradually depleted (Steinbeck). America as well as other countries feared that the prolongation of this condition would become a dilemma to human survival, so scientists devised a way to relieve this stress by engineering plants and livestock to optimize food production in order to accommodate any future food shortage. After World War II, technology and new inventions started to emerge quickly that it provided a mean to increase the family size, especially during the baby boomer era. On the new horizon of booming technology, scientists explored a possibility to increase food production with the use of growth hormones and antibiotics. Whether they are synthetic or natural, the hormones showed that the treatment improved the growth rate of animals being treated. In America, this practice of growth stimulants was limited to sheep, cattle, poultry and swine only. Two methods of introducing these growth stimulants into the interested animals were used in conventional farming. The first method involved adding growth hormones into the feedstock as addictives. Consequently, this boosted the economic importance by raising a significant profit for producers. The presence of hormones improved the quality of the meat by reducing the deposition of fat, hence produces a leaner meat that most consumers desire. As for the producers, they benefited much more because hormones increase the efficiency of nutrient absorption and feed utilization. In other words, it allows more growth with less feedstock. Consequently, the cost to both consumers and producer is so much reduced. However, the public health raised many issues concerning the safety regarding these hormones. Typically, women who regularly eat beef, tend to give birth to boys with lower-than-normal sperm count and to girls with an early onset of puberty, which may create health complications such as breast or other forms of cancer. Hence, the animals about to be slaughtered to provide meat would be fed with feedstock that containing no feed addictives for at least one month prior to being slaughtered in order to reduce the residue in the edible tissues. Hence this practice of hormone treatment may endanger consumers since it poses a potential risk to human health if the amount of residue remains significantly in the meat. The second method substantially reduces the level of addictive residues with the use of implantation. This technique involves an injection, usually administered at the base of the ear. The implantations are removed from the treated animals at least a month prior to being slaughtered to ensure the adequate elimination of residues. Furthermore, hormones were also used in the milk industry to increase milk production. Through treatment, the animals were under tremendous stress because their lactation periods were prolonged and their immune system became weak. They became more susceptible to diseases such as inflammation of the udders. With this condition, the udders produce pus and hence it would contaminate the milk. Producers then treated these cows with antibiotics. As a result, the residues of these antibiotics in the milk promote a potential risk to those who consume milk because these residues help develop the antibiotic resistance bacteria in human and other forms of cancer. These supplements also reduced the fertility in the animals as well as increased the risk of developing signs of lameness, a condition in which the animals fail to move in a regular and sound manner on all four feet. Aside from being fed with antibiotics, artificial drugs and other genetically modified foods, cattle in industrial farms were also fed with the ground-up remains of their same species. This allowed the spread of the mad cow disease, which is a horrific condition that destroys the nervous system and the brain. The consumers can contract the disease if they consume the cows with this condition. Furthermore, these farms produce so much manure that promotes a risk to human health. Since industrial farms involve large-scale farming, they overspill manure containing hormone and antibiotic residues into the environment, contaminate wells with E. coli and other pathogens. These hormones may upset the ecosystem and may find their way back into the human body through the improper treatment of the water system. Being raised in Vietnam, I was accustomed to organic foods and animals were raised in an open space. After I set foot onto the United States, I was so overwhelmed with anticipation from the experience of freedom and multi-cultural aspects of the country. I have always believed that the United States is a melting pot of the world and I do really enjoy different ethnical foods it has offered. However the meat texture in these foods gave me a completely unexpected experience. The taste of the meat, derived from its texture, relied solely on how animals were being raised. I was grown to see animals raised in a free-ranging environment where they wander freely in the open space and are fed with natural feedstock. Although it may take as much as twice longer for these animals to reach their stage for the slaughter house, the quality of the meat is far more superior. The texture of the meat is so dense that when I bit on it, it felt like there was a juicy flavor of sweetness gusting out and filled my entire mouth. On the contrary, the meat in America is both soggy and dried at the same time. The fibers of the meat come apart easily and they do not retain any moisture to keep them flavorful or tender. It gave me an experience of chewing on dried rubber which loses its ability to hold everything together. As for the chicken and swine raised in Vietnam, their skin is a little chewy and compacted with collagen but at the same time it is very crunchy as if it provides a feeling of biting into a barely steamed stalk of celery. In America, their skin is so much tender that it gave me a feeling of eating soggy and tasteless dough. I have also realized that the meat products in the United States have a very distinctive smell of artificial addictives. When freshly cooked, the meat has a faint smell of these chemicals. However, if the meat is cooled down or reheated, the smell of these chemicals becomes so strong that its reek over-dominates the food. As a result, the reheated food provides an even more distasteful experience of American meat products for me. As for dairy products, I found that eggs in Vietnam are very nutritious and tasteful. Just by observation, the egg white is so thick with pearly color and the egg yolk has a very deep and attractive orange color as compared to American eggs with watery egg white and light orange egg yolk. Once boiled, eggs in Vietnam have a very soft collagen-like texture and the yolks are tightly packed with a hint of collagen as well. When I had a hard-boiled egg, the experience was so mesmerizing as if I had eaten a soft collagen together with a tender, creamy and flavorful yolk. The American hard-boiled eggs taste nothing compared to what I had familiarized with. The egg white is so soft and has no taste, whereas the egg yolk tastes very chalky and dried and it comes apart easily. I also remember my very first experience with American milk that changed my perspective about drinking dairy milk completely after that. Before arriving to the United States, I had accustomed to freshly warm milk which provides a very creamy texture and soothing feeling. In America, milk used to taste and smell very chalky. I later learned that milk had carried some antibiotic residues that resulted in such awful taste and smell. Also, the American dairy industries have employed regulatory method, known as pasteurization technique, to prevent diseases and sickness caused by the impurity in the milk. Consequently, the radiation denatures some proteins in the milk and hence it produces a tasteless feeling. Later on vitamin D becomes a vital ingredient in the milk because this supplement enhances the efficient absorption of calcium into the body. With all these long-term benefits added to the milk production, the immediate taste of the milk reduces dramatically from nutritiously soothing to tasteless and chalky. Furthermore, not only biological supplements pose a health issue to the general public, the use of chemicals in agriculture also raises a controversy about its effects. No matter how the pesticides are used, they still end up in the air and in the bodies of farm workers. The most well-known pesticide used was organophosphate, which had become associated with many acute health conditions such as abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, headaches, as well as skin and eye problems. Furthermore, exposure to these pesticides is linked to other more severe health problems, such as respiratory problems, memory disorder, cancer, depression, and birth defects. Hence many health-conscious consumers tend to lean toward organic crops, even if they cost a little more than conventionally grown fruits because organic produces require more time and cost more money to cultivate. Many consumers believe that the quality of crops from organic system differs considerably than conventional farming. It has been favorably debated that organic food produces a higher level of dietary desirable compounds such as vitamins, antioxidants and omega-3. Simultaneously, the organic farming practice also results in a lower level of undesired compounds such as heavy metals and pesticide residues. However, these market produces also undergoes sanitization treatment of radiation to extend their shelf life. As a result of this radiation application, all the proteins in the produces are destroyed and their tastes become negatively altered. With traditional farming, fruits come in smaller size and very fewer in quantity. Also, it takes much longer for these produces to reach maturity. Consequently, a lot of flavors become concentrated in smaller fruit. Also, without being sanitized with radiation to extend the shelf life, these produces burst a mouthful of flavor once being consumed fresh. The downside to this is that their shelf life becomes very short because these produces still have their active degrading proteins. Finally, organic and traditional farming system contributes less damaging to the ecosystem and it reduces the spread of potential health risk to consumers for many reasons. These farms do not use synthetic growth stimulants in their animals and they take steps to minimize health risks such as mad cow disease and bacteria resistance in human. The animals on these farms are fed only with genetically unmodified hay, grain concentrates, and feed pastures which do not include any feed additives or antibiotics. As for crops, these farms do not release synthetic pesticides into the environment because some pesticides may result in potential harm to soil, water, local wildlife, and as well as human.

Power Generation/Gas Turbine Power/Part3

Gas Turbine Power Plants Gas Turbine Working Principle Gas turbine engines derive their power from burning fuel in a combustion chamber and using the fast flowing combustion gases to drive a turbine in much the same way as the high pressure steam drives a steam turbine. One major difference however is that the gas turbine has a second turbine acting as an air compressor mounted on the same shaft. The air turbine (compressor) draws in air, compresses it and feeds it at high pressure into the combustion chamber increasing the intensity of the burning flame. It is a positive feedback mechanism. As the gas turbine speeds up, it also causes the compressor to speed up forcing more air through the combustion chamber which in turn increases the burn rate of the fuel sending more high pressure hot gases into the gas turbine increasing its speed even more. Uncontrolled runaway is prevented by controls on the fuel supply line which limit the amount of fuel fed to the turbine thus limiting its speed. The thermodynamic process used by the gas turbine is known as the Brayton cycle. Analogous to the Carnot cycle in which the efficiency is maximised by increasing the temperature difference of the working fluid between the input and output of the machine, the Brayton cycle efficiency is maximised by increasing the pressure difference across the machine. The gas turbine is comprised of three main components: a compressor, a combustor, and a turbine. The working fluid, air, is compressed in the compressor (adiabatic compression - no heat gain or loss), then mixed with fuel and burned by the combustor under constant pressure conditions in the combustion chamber (constant pressure heat addition). The resulting hot gas expands through the turbine to perform work (adiabatic expansion). Much of the power produced in the turbine is used to run the compressor and the rest is available to run auxiliary equipment and do useful work. The system is an open system because the air is not reused so that the fourth step in the cycle, cooling the working fluid, is omitted. Gas Turbine Aero Engine (Deutches Museum) Gas turbines have a very high power to weight ratio and are lighter and smaller than internal combustion engines of the same power. Though they are mechanically simpler than reciprocating engines, their characteristics of high speed and high temperature operation require high precision components and exotic materials making them more expensive to manufacture. Electrical Power Generation In electricity generating applications the turbine is used to drive a synchronous generator which provides the electrical power output but because the turbine normally operates at very high rotational speeds of 12,000 r.p.m or more it must be connected to the generator through a high ratio reduction gear since the generators run at speeds of 1,000 or 1,200 r.p.m. depending on the AC frequency of the electricity grid. Turbine Configurations Gas turbine power generators are used in two basic configurations •	Simple Systems consisting of the gas turbine driving an electrical power generator. •	Combined Cycle Systems which are designed for maximum efficiency in which the hot exhaust gases from the gas turbine are used to raise steam to power a steam turbine with both turbines being connected to electricity generators. Turbine Performance •	Turbine Power Output To minimise the size and weight of the turbine for a given output power, the output per pound of airflow should be maximised. This is obtained by maximising the air flow through the turbine which in turn depends on maximising the pressure ratio between the air inlet and exhaust outlet. The main factor governing this is the pressure ratio across the compressor which can be as high as 40:1 in modern gas turbines. In simple cycle applications, pressure ratio increases translate into efficiency gains at a given firing temperature, but there is a limit since increasing the pressure ratio means that more energy will be consumed by the compressor. •	System Efficiency Thermal efficiency is important because it directly affects the fuel consumption and operating costs. o	Simple Cycle Turbines A gas turbine consumes considerable amounts of power just to drive its compressor. As with all cyclic heat engines, a higher maximum working temperature in the machine means greater efficiency (Carnot's Law), but in a turbine it also means that more energy is lost as waste heat through the hot exhaust gases whose temperatures are typically well over 1,000°C. Consequently simple cycle turbine efficiencies are quite low. For heavy plant, design efficiencies range between 30% and 40%. (The efficiencies of aero engines are in the range 38% and 42% while low power microturbines (<100kW) achieve only 18% to 22%). Although increasing the firing temperature increases the output power at a given pressure ratio, there is also a sacrifice of efficiency due to the increase in losses due to the cooling air required to maintain the turbine components at reasonable working temperatures. o	Combined Cycle Turbines It is however possible to recover energy from the waste heat of simple cycle systems by using the exhaust gases in a hybrid system to raise steam to drive a steam turbine electricity generating set. In such cases the exhaust temperature may be reduced to as low as 140°C enabling efficiencies of up to 60% to be achieved in combined cycle systems. In combined-cycle applications, pressure ratio increases have a less pronounced effect on the efficiency since most of the improvement comes from increases in the Carnot thermal efficiency resulting from increases in the firing temperature. Thus simple cycle efficiency is achieved with high pressure ratios. Combined cycle efficiency is obtained with more modest pressure ratios and greater firing temperatures. Fuels One further advantage of gas turbines is their fuel flexibility. They can be adapted to use almost any flammable gas or light distillate petroleum products such as gasoline (petrol), diesel and kerosene (paraffin) which happen to be available locally, though natural gas is the most commonly used fuel. Crude and other heavy oils and can also be used to fuel gas turbines if they are first heated to reduce their viscosity to a level suitable for burning in the turbine combustion chambers. Applications Gas turbines can be used for large scale power generation. Examples are applications delivering 600 MW or more from a 400 MW gas turbine coupled to a 200 MW steam turbine in a co-generating installation. Such installations are not normally used for base load electricity generation, but for bringing power to remote sites such as oil and gas fields. They do however find use in the major electricity grids in peak shaving applications to provide emergency peak power. Low power gas turbine generating sets with capacities up to 5 MW can be accommodated in transportation containers to provide mobile emergency electricity supplies which can delivered by truck to the point of need.

HomeWork Assignment 4

1. A massively multiplayer online game (also called MMOG) is a video game which is capable of supporting hundreds or thousands of players simultaneously. By necessity, they are played on the Internet, and feature at least one persistent world. They are, however, not necessarily games played on personal computers. The Difference: There are also a few more common differences between MMOGs and other online games. Most MMOGs charge the player a monthly or bimonthly fee to have access to the game's servers, and therefore to online play. Also, the game state in an MMOG rarely ever resets. Popular MMOGs might have thousands of players online at any given time, usually on a company owned server. Non-MMOGs, such as Battlefield 1942 or Half-Life usually have fewer than 50 players online (per server) and are usually played on private servers.

2. There would be stresses in living in a virtual world because there is a real commercial.

3. The economic from this game is real because e-bay is the E-commerce. There are real sellers and buyers.

I completely agree that the Internet can be considered one big computer. This is really what cloud computing is all about.Information is stored in and applications run in the "cloud". Every individual and every organization now has these tremendous resources at their disposal.

This obviously has profound implications. Francis Bacon said "Knowlege is power." This is still basically true in an absolute sense but relative to other people it doesn't represent the kind of leverage that it used too. Existing knowlege was harder to come by in those days. Now everyone with a cell phone has the totality of human knowlege at their fingertips wherever they are.

This concept married with open source pretty much yields anarchy in the best sense of the word.The internet is decentralized, diverse and well linked, which means it fits the criteria for the intelligence of a group of people being greater than the sum of the intelligence of its constituents.And it's more than people, it's programs.

So the "cloud" is comprised of the world's computers, programs and essentially the users of those computers as well. The world is more literally at your fingertips than it ever has been. That's something to be excited about.

==The internet changes everything==

The internet hasn't just changed everything about business or software or something else specific. It truly changes everything. Pretty much everything relevant to us is connected through it somehow.

It increases the amount of social interaction people engage in (whether or not this is positive or negative remains to be seen).http://books.google.com/books?hl=en&lr=&id=av59b6DhKtkC&oi=fnd&pg=PA347&dq=effects+internet&ots=V2ClHC0Uid&sig=anpjMnnk8KBA6H75UvCdFLsat3o#v=onepage&q=effects%20internet&f=false , the distinction between consumers and producers is blurred and all knowledge is imeediately available.

The does seem to be a digital divide still http://healthaff.highwire.org/cgi/content/abstract/19/6/255. I suspect this will close up soon though. In fact this study was from 2003.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Jackowacko. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Jackowacko~enwikiversity that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:39, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 06:12, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

User:Fieza/Why plasma and platelets are needed

There are some terrific things that can be done with blood plasma. It can help people who have difficulty with blood clotting, for instance. Much of the blood plasma collected may be used by pharmaceutical companies, and when you make a plasma donation, you usually don’t get to determine how your plasma is used. Another difference is that many people are paid for plasma donation, which is usually not the case with blood donation. Compensation isn’t huge, but it can amount to about $15-25 US Dollars (USD) per donation. Not all collectors pay, and some organizations like the American Red Cross, urge you to donate without pay.

Collection centers screen for certain types of things. If you have recently traveled to a foreign country, are promiscuous, or use intravenous drugs, you have the potential for passing on disease to others. Do not lie about these behaviors since your plasma used in another person could have potentially fatal consequences. Collection centers will also look at your health, weight, behavior, any prescription meds you might take, and they will probably test your blood for anemia. Some centers also screen for high blood sugar content.

Some people participate in plasma donation twice a week, and theoretically if you are very healthy, your plasma should be fully restored within 48 hours after a donation. However, organizations like the Red Cross will only let you donate once a month or twelve times yearly. Other collection centers will let people donate twice weekly, but this may not be in your best health interests. There is some evidence that regular weekly plasma donation may affect health, energy and immunity. Getting $25 twice a week may not be worth it if you get sick or feel run down.

When you give a plasma donation, most centers say the total process may take up to two hours. People who donate frequently may be in and out of a center in about 45 minutes to an hour. You will need to snack after you give a donation and most centers have cookies and juice available. Bring something to read with you, and don’t forget to use the bathroom before you give plasma because you can’t stop the process in the middle.

User:Banggauw

Due by January 23 by 23:59. Post on your Wikiversity account under the name "Homework 4" Register for the free account on secondlife.com, experiment with the on-line game and answer the following questions:

What are MMOGs and how do they differer from regular video games? The main difference is about the number of the players. Massively multiplayer online game is a video game which is capable of supporting hundreds or thousands of players simultaneously.They play on the internet. On the other hand, regular video game can play locally only with 1 to 4 people and no need to use the internet, but sometimes regular video game. 2. Would there be stresses in living in a virtual world?

There would have no serious stresses in virtual world for people who don't play the game in virtual world seriuosly because people have nothing to lose in the virtual world, and the items in the virtual world have no value in the real world. However, some people who play the game seriously could have more stress than other players because they may trade items from virtual world could make them have value in the real world.

3. Look at e-bay and see what is being sold from secondlife and other on-line game forum. Is the economy from these games real? They trade money in the game by using money in the real world. Moreover, they sell clothing items in secondlife. In other online game, they trade some rare items in the game. The economy from online games is real as we can see trading in e-bay and many other game board.

Homework 5 Spind the sepcifications (spec sheet) on the best, quickest, biggest PC available. CPU and speed -Jaguar is a petascale supercomputer built by Cray at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. As of November 2009[update], it was the world's fastest computer with a peak performance of more than 1750 teraflops (1.75 petaflops). A Cray XT5 system, Jaguar has 224,256 Opteron processor cores[1], and operated with a version of Linux called Cray Linux Environment. The newly updated Cray XT5 system passed a benchmark test at 1.759 quadrillion mathematical calculations per second - or 1.759 Memory -Dell Precision T7500 Designed for maximum scalability and performance on large data sets and complex multi-threaded applications, the Dell PrecisionTM T7500 is the flagship workstation of the new Dell Precision line. Core features include: Next-generation Intel® Xeon®  quad-core processors for leading-edge performance on complex workstation applications. Massive memory scalability (up to 192GB1 of DDR3 Registered ECC memory) for handling enormous data sets with ease. Over 1 billion possible configurations configurable to virtually any industry, application or environment. Hard drive -Intel Xeon "Nehalem" processor. A completely new interior makes it even easier to add up to 32GB of memory, four PCI Express expansion cards, and up to 8TB of hard drive storage Type of optical device - ViTiny has a lot of features that make it more user-friendly than the traditional microscopes. The traditional microscope is very expensive, difficult to use and most importantly, not portable. Not one of these attributes describes the ViTiny microscope. ViTiny being digital, has the ability to capture the images you are inspecting. Using Fun 50’s 5-90x zoom, you can take a picture of the object you are viewing. Another good thing about this is that you no longer have to put the object you wish to view on a slide beneath the lens of the microscope, all you have to do is put the ViTiny Fun 50 over the object. To be able to study the object more, the images you have in the digital microscope can be transferred to your computer via USB cable. ViTiny comes in three magnification options, which have a 5x optical magnification and 20x digital magnification; 12x optical magnification and 48x digital magnification; 24x optical magnification and 90x digital magnification.

The device features a 262K TFT display and functions such as snapshoot, photo storage, real time function, and it can save the images directly into the PC. With a 320x240 photo resolution, the ViTiny Fun 50 allows the storage of 60 photos. However, so far, the manufacturers haven't released any price related details, which means that you'll have to contact them directly for more thorough information.

Monitor - Worlds largest LCD Monitor - 40" Ultimately you'll be the coolest kid on the block if you hook up the Samsung LTM405W to a DVD player or HDTV signal, but thanks to a generous assortment of inputs round back we can use the display for much more practical reasons. The Samsung LTM405W comes equipped with DVI port that connects directly into a computer just as a desktop LCD monitors do. Among the bundle of cables which arrive in the large LTM405W box there are a set of DVI-to-DVI and DVI-to-Analog video cables. Because LCD display's are digital devices, it's always best to use the DVI port if your computer or videocard is equipped with one. If your computer lacks the white DVI port never fear, the LTM405W works just about as well with the analog video signal. As a computer monitor, the largest resolution the Samsung LTM405W will support is 1024X768 @ 75Hz. Icons, text and images are rendered very clear on the LCD screen so it can be viewed from far away quite easily. We connected a computer to the Samsung SPL4225 Plasma display a while back and tested out its computer display capabilities, but I have to say the Tantus LTM405W is far superior for this task. The Samsung LTM405W transforms quickly into the worlds largest LCD computer monitor. Though, with a maximum (native) resolution of 1024x768 pixels, icons and text on the screen are quite large. Hence, any individual using the Samsung LTM405W for a computer monitor would not benefit from a larger screen real estate than what is available on standard 17" monitors, just one larger in size. When it comes to illustrating points to a large group of people (say, showing off a new software application at a boardroom meeting) the Samsung LTM405W is first rate. Because the computer's desktop is displayed at the native resolution of the 40" LCD (and this is very significant to image quality) text, icons, and images are shown very crisp and legible. Image dithering usually causes computer screens which are being pumped through larger rear screen, or plasma display's, to loose some of their clarity. Thankfully that isn't the case with the Samsung LTM405W whatsoever. On a side note, persons with vision disabilities who need to use programs which blow up the size of text on the computer screen by several hundred percent could find the 40" LTM405W display quite handy, assuming they can afford the price tag. A few clicks of the Samsung LTM405W remote and we even had PIP of a DVD off in the far right corner - and at very nice resolution I might add. The only draw back is that PIP is limited to basically one size, or half screen. It would have been useful to be able to adjust the size of the PIP screen beyond these two options, and I can only hope that future revisions will address this.

Homework 4

1.What are MMOGs and how do they differer from regular video games? •MMOGs are massively multiplayer online games. They are different from other regular video games in terms of the way to play games. Regular video games, players can enjoy themselves only in the games. They just sit and play until the games end. Unlike regular video games, players can make friends in the games by communicating to other players in the games while they are playing. They just type the conversation like they chat in MSN and the conversation will show in the public. However, if they want to talk in private with other players, they also can do it. Moreover, they can change their characters’ appearance. For example, they can change their clothes, their hair color or their bodies.

2.Would there be stresses in living in a virtual world? •In my opinion I do not think that playing this game would be any stresses in living in a virtual world because there is no violence. For this game, we just have to choose one character that represents us in the game and then we walk to other places, at the same time, making of some new friends. Therefore, I think this game, on the other hand, can help us feel more relaxed. If we take a look for other games like counter or winning, those are more violent than second life a lot because players need to play much attention to the game to beat their competitors or to kill their enemy. As this point, I do not think secondlife causes any stresses.

3.Look at e-bay and see what is being sold from secondlife and other on-line game forum. Is the economy from these games real? •Secondlife, sexy outfits are mostly sold on e-bay website. If players want any new outfits to decorate their characters in the games, they have to pay. For other online games, they also have items sell. For example, Raknarok, players in this game sell good items to others by trading with real money. From my point of view, the economy from these games is real. Some of players do this as their jobs, but it is illegal.

The periodic table/Iodine

Discovery
Iodine was discovered by French chemist Bernard Courtois (1777-1838) in 1811. Charles Bernard Desormes, Nicolas Clément and Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac were given samples of Iodine to continue their research of Iodine. The discovery was made public by Desormes and Clément on November 29, 1813, as they scheduled a meeting for the substance in the Imperial Institute of France. Gay-Lussac awarded the element's name, iode, from the Greek Word (ιώδες) for violet (because of the color of iodine vapor).

On December 10, 1813, English chemist Humphry Davy (he was given a sample of Iodine) sent a letter to the Royal Society of London, stating that he had identified a new element. Immediately, Davy and Gay-Lussac erupted up in arguments on who discovered the element first, but both agreed on that Courtois was the first to isolate the element.

Iodine in the body
Iodine is an essential trace element; the thyroid hormones (thyroxine and triiodotyronine) contains iodine. According to the World Health Organization, in 2007, 2 billion individuals had insufficient iodine intake, 1/3 being of school age.

User:Baltic-amber-beetle

Hi my name is Anders Damgaard (f.1988).

In a long period, I have studied and photographed inclusions in Baltic amber. Over the next few years, I will upload parts of the photographed collection on commons.

My pictures are taken with a cheap old Sony digital camera (DSZ-W70) - therefore not all images are in as good quality as I wanted or they have the potential to become. The images which allered lies in the different categories is an okay quality, but until that day there I have the money for a new and better camera, I constantly try and optimize the quality of the images

I am hoping you will enjoy the photos and find them useful…

ATP mentor training/Computer game mentor/Simpliversum

Simpliversum
Computer games create artificial realities that may sometimes be quite interesting but have several deficiencies compared to reality. These deficiencies can have effects on psychology, which is why computer game players may need an extra lesson in psychology.

What are the effects of computer games on psychology?
The primary effects appear to be:
 * 1) Most computer games are much too rewarding and at the same time they are not rewarding at all. While the game is running rewards are easily gained but when the game is over the rewards quickly become meaningless. This is opposed to the concept of deferred gratification.
 * 2) Most computer games can create a state of flow. A player who is used to a state of flow could be seen to develop a weak form of addiction (and possibly a strong form of addiction).
 * 3) Most computer games do not require empathy, quite often they train attitudes that are, at least superficially, opposed to empathy.
 * 4) Some computer games can train exaggerated competition, which can also be opposed to empathy.
 * 5) Most computer games are too simple. They may look logically challenging but they can offer artificial realities that are actually significantly more simple than reality.
 * 6) Some computer games can suppress socialization simply by using up time that might otherwise be used for social learning.
 * 7) Some computer games can cause a "toy block" mentality, which implies that goals should be accomplished through sufficiently simple actions with items intended for the purpose.
 * 8) Most computer games promote exaggerated learning-by-doing, which means pupils might acquire bad learning habits through the expectation that "things will just begin to make sense".
 * 9) Few computer games motivate altruism.

Homework 5

Spind the sepcifications (spec sheet) on the best, quickest, biggest PC available.

1. CPU and speed

Intel Core 2 Extreme Processor QX9650

The Intel QX9650 has a 3.0 GHz core frequency, a 12MB chunk of L2 cache, was built on the 45nm process and features a new SSE4 instruction set. Since the clock frequency hasn't changed the significant differences is the extra 4MB of cache and the fact it was done on the 45nm process. It is the world’s first 45nm, high-K metal gate lead-free desktop processor. If you are already a bit lost please feel free to go back and reference some of our previous articles on Intel's 45nm processors. It's interesting to see that Intel previewed us a 45nm Yorkfield at 3.33GHz in April of 2007 and now six months later they are releasing the same part at just 3.00GHz.

2. Memory

DR3 SDRAM

DR3 SDRAM or double-data-rate three synchronous dynamic random access memory is a random access memory interface technology used for high bandwidth storage of the working data of a computer or other digital electronic devices. DDR3 is part of the SDRAM family of technologies and is one of the many DRAM (dynamic random access memory) implementations. DDR3 SDRAM is an improvement over its predecessor, DDR2 SDRAM, and the two are not compatible. The primary benefit of DDR3 is the ability to transfer at twice the data rate of DDR2 (I/O at 8× the data rate of the memory cells it contains), thus enabling higher bus rates and higher peak rates than earlier memory technologies. In addition, the DDR3 standard allows for chip capacities of 512 megabits to 8 gigabits, effectively enabling a maximum memory module size of 16 gigabytes. With data being transferred 64 bits at a time per memory module, DDR3 SDRAM gives a transfer rate of (memory clock rate) × 4 (for bus clock multiplier) × 2 (for data rate) × 64 (number of bits transferred) / 8 (number of bits/byte). Thus with a memory clock frequency of 100 MHz, DDR3 SDRAM gives a maximum transfer rate of 6400 MB/s. DDR3 is a DRAM interface specification; the actual DRAM arrays that store the data are the same as in any other type of DRAM, and have similar performance.

Homework 4

1. What are MMOGs and how do they differ from regular video games?

Answer MMOGs are massive multiplayer online games which players can communicate with other players that are real people. MMOGs are more advanced in comparison to regular games terms of that plays can customize characteristics of the game plays or even can download suits or items from other sources that adjust them in MMOGs. In contrast, regular games do not provide any advanced options for players like MMOGs.

2. Would there be stresses in living in a virtual world?

Answer Of cause not, because this kind of games did not affect players’ real lives. They just play it for the sake of relaxation, I mean relaxation because plays are able to make a conversation with other players. It is like players may have a chance to talk to other people with this kind of games. It should make players relaxed instead of stressed.

3. Look at e-bay and see what is being sold from secondlife and other on-line game forum. Is the economy from these games real?

Answer Those sold in e-bay are suits and items because in on-line games players need to show what they have got in their characters, so, it will be easier to sell things for on-line games through website which in this case e-bay.
