In Canada, it is 27 degrees outside. To a Canadian, that sounds great there would be kids playing outside with T-shirts and shorts. To an American, however, the situation is different. Most people would be inside with the heater turned on. How could the situation be so different? In Canada, they use the metric system of measurement. The Metric System is a measurement system that is based on the number 10 and used in most countries including most of Europe, Japan, China, and many other nations.…

However, some aspects of everyday life are not what you would expect from a nation of such importance. Firstly, the US customary units of measure, derived from the ancient imperial units, are still in use today in the US, Liberia and Burma. This non-coherent system of measures is difficult, even for the people raised in the country itself. My brother Victor Salas, 13, explains that although he was taught the…
On the three day of my food intake tracker I found out a general idea of what I 'm really butting in to my body. In some of my meals I meet and in others i didn 't the recommendations by the dietary intake by choose myplate.gov website. I will anylize each food group on each intake of the three days recorded. The my platte website breaks down the foods in to five groups that are the building blocks for a good diet. The groups are, Fruits, Vegetables, Grains, Protein foods and Dairy. Each…
Gutters are an important part of the roof system on a home or building. Allowing rainwater to simply pour off the roof directly down the sides of a structure can compromise the walls, windows and doors, plus ultimately the structural foundation. Understanding how to install gutters properly can be vital in protecting a home or building. How to Install Gutters Replacing old gutters on a home follows roughly the same steps as a first-time gutter installation. The biggest difference between the…

The metric system comes with its advantages, and its disadvantages.…

European Union agriculture commissioner Phil Hogan announced last Friday a multi-billion dollar plan to integrate digital sensors in every aspect of crop production to “produce more with less.” For instance, data from satellites could determine how best to apply fertilizers and pesticides, thus improving efficiency and crop yields. This undertaking would have been unthinkable a decade ago. But a new advance - parallel…
accomplished by a memory chip are READ in which the data contents of a memory is read out and WRITE in which data is stored in a memory. Each bit of information bits is stored in memory cell consisting of one or more transistors. The most basic such memory unit which stores 1 bit of data is the D flip flop. High performance IC circuits are the need of the day, which require very high memory to support the circuit. With the micro-miniaturization of the circuits, multiple functionalities may be…
