.... and renovation. Additional sources of the fungal spores could be contaminated or wet wood, bird droppings in air ducts, or decaying fireproofing materials. The fungus causes pneumonia in a host with a weak or otherwise compromised immune system. Patients at risk are those undergoing organ transplant or bone marrow transplants, and depending on the type of transplant, mortality rates are as high as 95%. Bone marrow transplant patients, the highest risk group, should be treated like they are immunosuppressed for up to four weeks after the procedure. The portal of entry is through the upper respiratory track. The infection then becomes .....

.... -its form and where it sits in relation to other objects. Your brain processes this information so that you see the apple, and the rest of the world, in 3-D. You can look around objects, too -if the apple is blocking the view of an orange behind it, you can just move your head to one side. The apple seems to "move" out of the way so you can see the orange or even the back of the apple. If that seems a bit obvious, just try looking behind something in a regular photograph! You can't, because the photograph can't reproduce the infinitely complicated waves of light reflected by objects; the lens of a camera can only focus those waves into a .....

.... and bromine that in turn deteriorate the ozone and form "thinning" or "holes." This is catastrophic because they are bonded very strongly together and cannot be broken down by water. This means they travel into the atmosphere virtually unharmed by rain or decomposition (Goldfarb 282). The reason these are causing such a commotion is the damage they cause to living things on Earth. When the ozone depletes, it causes more ultraviolet (UV) rays to hit the Earth's surface than are healthy (Singer and Crandall npg). UV rays affect the DNA of every living cell, altering the protein make-up of that cell (Goldfarb 288). Most impor .....

.... In dysthymia (pronounced dis-THI-mee-uh), people feel depressed, have low self-esteem, and concentrate poorly most of the time—often for a period of years—but their symptoms are milder than in major depression. Some people with dysthymia experience occasional episodes of major depression. Mental health professionals use the term clinical depression to refer to any of the above forms of depression. Surveys indicate that people commonly view depression as a sign of personal weakness, but psychiatrists and psychologists view it as a real illness. In the United States, the National Institute of Mental Health has estimated that depression .....

.... who constantly try to take you out of your game. Although you know all this is going on, you are unable to see and hear anything because you are only concerned about the opposing team. If you do tune into a certain person this may be considered selective attention. Selective attention is the focusing on conscious awareness on a particular stimulus. (Reference) This means that at any moment we focus our awareness only on a limited aspect of all that we are capable experiencing. When I use selective attention my attention is on the coach and other players on the field. The coach or my teammates may be telling me something importa .....

.... metal the alchemists wanted. Many alchemists would spend there whole lives searching for the substance that would start the transmutation that would make them rich, also many alchemists were hired by lords and noblemen who wanted to know the secret so they could become wealthier then they already were. Basically they saw easy money and would waste their lives and money to find out how to get it. There was another side to alchemy them just changing lead into gold, people not only wanted to be rich but they also wanted to live forever. The Elixir was the substance that would extend the life of the user. They thought that the elixir would .....

.... “Beta” into “Alpha”. Beta and Alpha are different terms used to describe the brain waves given off during these states. When the subconscious (subcon) or “Alpha” mind is responding, different commands, or suggestions, can be implemented into the mind. The subcon mind can then execute these imbedded commands without any intervening of the conscious mind and body (Hunter). Hypnosis was first confirmed to be real by a Swedish therapist named Anton Mesmer around 1775. After publishing papers describing the Alpha Mind State, he named the entire process “Mesmerism”. When a person was hypnotized, .....

.... the glass panels of a greenhouse. Without this natural "greenhouse effect," temperatures would be alot lower than they are now, and life like today would not work. Instead, thanks to greenhouse gases, the earth's average temperature is better, 60°F. But, problems may happen when the amount of greenhouse gases increases. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution, great amounts of carbon dioxide have increased nearly 30%, methane concentrations have almost doubled, and nitrous oxide concentrations have risen about 15%. These increases have made the heat-trapping worse in the earth's atmosphere. Sulfate aerosols, a .....

.... It would start to slow down crashing ashore through all coastal city. Then, finally wash up hundreds for miles inland. " The mid-Atlantic Ocean impact ranging from 400 meters to 5 kilometers in diameter. This would generate a tsunami that would sweep across the upper East Coast of the United States to the Appalachian Mountains."(Gottschalk 1) The blast of the impact would equal a 300 gigaton blast of T.N.T. Also, 2.4 seconds after impact, a small fireball with a temperature of 5000'C would sweep across long island. A land fall strike would cause total divistation. The asteroid would create a earth trembling impact causing earth quakes aroun .....
