3.3 Procedure by which Bills become law In order to become an Act of Parliament a Bill will have to be passed by both the House of Commons and the House of Lords. A Bill may start in either the House of Commons or the House of Lords, with the exception of Finance Bills which always start in the House of Commons. A Finance Bill is introduced by the Government shortly after the Budget to bring the Government's tax proposals into law. Before a Bill can become an Act of Parliament it must undergo a number of stages.
4.7 Safety assessment today At the time of writing (2006), the descriptions of safety assessment for GM crops and derived products are far more rigorous than the vague prescriptions offered in the early 1990s (see Figure 2). This might be seen as an inevitable development as scientific knowledge increases and technology improves. However, that would only be part of the story. A fully rounded appraisal of the evolution of safety assessment in this field would have to acknowledge the huge part that both the direct critici

7.5 Emission from spiralling electrons: synchrotron radiation In the very first reading (Activity 1) we encountered the term ‘non-thermal’ describing the spectrum of light emitted from AGN. In this subsection we will learn more about the most important type of non-thermal radiation: synchrotron emission. When a charged particle moves in the presence of a magnetic field it experiences a Lorentz force, which produces an acceleration whose direction is perpendicular to both the magnetic field line and the velocity of the particle,

Exercises and resources for conducting a Light Intensity Survey.
"To measure the levels of light in a particular area, we need to use a device called a Light Meter, which measures the intensity of light in the vicinity of the sensor and displays the reading."
6.004 offers an introduction to the engineering of digital systems. Starting with MOS transistors, the course develops a series of building blocks - logic gates, combinational and sequential circuits, finite-state machines, computers and finally complete systems. Both hardware and software mechanisms are explored through a series of design examples.6.004 is required material for any EECS undergraduate who wants to understand (and ultimately design) digital systems. A good grasp of the material i

Lecture 15
Visualization is a ubiquitous technology, just like telecommunication. However, unlike a telephone system, humans play an integral part inside the "box" of visualization. This poses a significant challenge in establishing a theory of visualization. Visualization is a ubiquitous technology, just like telecommunication.
