Apple Knowledge Navigator — 1988
This six minute video shows a futuristic look at what computers could do in the future noting full well that this video was done a quarter century ago. It would be good for students to watch and discuss how close we are to John Sculley, Apple's CEO in 1988 ideas and, perhaps, even have them predict the future.
1.2 How does it hurt? This is a useful question because once we know the mechanism of pain sensation we can do something about alleviating it. When tissue is injured there follows a rapid release of ‘messenger’ chemicals that stimulate the nerve endings. Electrical impulses are relayed through the nerves to the spinal column and to the brain, which registers the sensation of pain. It usually, but not always, also directs our attention to the site where the damaged tissue initiated the pain message.

7.2.2 The ‘where’ pathway The ‘where’ pathway involves the ventral cochlear nuclei, the superior olivary complex and the inferior colliculus. The superior olivary complex is composed of the lateral superior olive (LSO) and the medial superior olive (MSO). The neurons in the superior olivary complex are the first brainstem neurons to receive strong inputs from both cochleae and are involved in sound localisation. The MSO receives excitatory inputs from the cochlear nuclei on both sides and is tonotopica
2 Looking for relationships In this section, we are going to consider the relationship between quantities in two practical situations and see how to describe these relationships by writing down a general rule or a word formula. Suppose you are planning a visit abroad. Your map marks all the distances between places in kilometres rather than miles. How can you work out what these distances are in miles? Lesson 10 - One Minute Romanian 4.4.1 Partnerships for sustainable consumption Moderate NGOs, progressive businesses and government all have a stake in seeing roundtable partnerships come up with practical steps that can bring sustainability closer.

The Soros Economic Development Fund is quasi-philanthropic and invests in high-risk projects in parts of the world most people couldn’t find on a map. But the Fund is self-sufficient and boasts a “blended” portfolio return of 8 percent a year. How do they do it?
