Since Apple’s foundation on April 1‚ 1976(1)‚ it has been climbing to the top of the world’s biggest and most valuable companies via the many breakthroughs in technology particularly the iPod‚ iMac and MacBook. However‚ ever since Apple’s famous CEO‚ Steve Jobs‚ passed away last year‚ Apple has rapidly gone downhill. The shoes Steve left seem to be too big for the new CEO Tim Cook; he seems to prefer to sail the big ship named Apple into safe harbor in order to avoid the many big waves from Samsung

It is because‚ like the scientists believe‚ it is either a scientific breakthrough or a lost cause. The question really boils down to‚ what do civilians think? Should we take time and strive to help them develop‚ should we take time to change them into what we think is normal‚ or should we let them live in peace just as we have

Gene therapy was introduced into the scientific field around 1972‚ which led to the first attempt at its use in 1980. Although original efforts were unsuccessful‚ this event ignited research into the idea‚ which has led to the multiple developments in gene therapy still being refined today. Around the same time‚ biotechnology also emerged as a new and ingenious tool in field of biology which only furthered the potential abilities of gene therapy. Current research surrounding these fields combines

Weather Forecasting In researching this project I was amazed to find the many books on this topic. After going through much information and reading an enormous amount of writing on weather forecasting I can only come to one conclusion that when all is considered the best forecasters can only give an educated guess of what is in store for weather. Through the many means at their disposal‚ such as satellites‚ ships at the ocean‚ infrared‚ radio‚ and radar transmissions even with all of these techniques

still be a risk that it may all go too far; all of these experiments can turn from a good idea for helping people into something that could change the world into a bad place if the technology got into the wrong hands. One of the main scientific breakthroughs over the last few years has been the ability to clone animals. Genetically-modified foods have made a big impact in the news lately. New scientific technologies like robots are starting to take over jobs that humans are capable of doing. Science
