Floating Balloon Purpose : To demonstrate the principle of buoyancy of warm air. Additional information : The density variation between warm and cool air can be used to explain why warm air possesses higher buoyancy. As hot air contain atoms and molecules with higher kinetic energy than cold air‚ it has a lower density and rises up while the colder air goes downwards

A proposal to establish high seas fishery management companies (HSFMCs) to ‘unitize’ management of high seas fish stocks would face daunting legal hurdles‚ as well as the thorny problem of dividing rents among participants. While these three alternatives may well be components of an eventual solution‚ sovereignty and other legal difficulties likely will limit their success. We propose considering an industry-led approach‚ based on the exercise of buyer power‚ in the market for catch in

the three strikes law. The examination study will document the effect of the three strikes rule on internal and external stakeholders‚ trying to evaluate whether the law and comparative laws go about as a compelling obstacle to wrongdoing. The creation of the three strikes law first passed as Initiative 593 in Washington State in 1993. Then California law was passed its own version in 1994 as Proposition 184. Currently twenty-four states in the United States have some version of the “Three Strike

GESTURE-RECOGNITION TECHNOLOGY In the early 1960s‚ users could move a light-emitting pen to control the Sketchpad computer-aided design system. Several subsequent commercial systems also worked with light-emitting pens. Research into camera-based computer vision for gesture recognition began in earnest in the early 1990s at places such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Media
