Star Spangled Banner Jimi Hendrix
1,204 words
The best guitarist, who is it? This is an argument
that has been amongst many musicians for many
years. But who is the hands down best guitarist?
From my viewpoint the answer is obvious. Joe
Satriani without a doubt is the best guitarist
alive today and perhaps the best guitarist ever. I
can already hear the responses from the crowd.
What about Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page,
Eddie Van Halen, or perhaps Steve Vai and Eric
Johnson? All of these players are good guitarists,
but they are no...

Wind energy is an unlimited source of energy. Many
countries, including the United States, use wind
energy to some degree. Wind turbines generate
electricity by spinning in the wind. There are two
main types of wind turbines: the horizontal axis
variety and the vertical axis design. The
horizontal type is the more common which looks
like a traditional windmill. Electricity generated
from wind turbines is fed into a local utility
grid and distributed just like ordinary
electricity. Some wind turb...

After losses and failure of Operation Barbarossa,
Hitler now had new objectives in the war. He
planned to drive Soviet forces out of the Southern
Steppes and the Caucasus region and taking over
the abundant supply of natural mineral wealth,

Germany's war machine. Another reason was that

World War Ii Made It Clear

What is war? Websters Encyclopedic Dictionary
describes it as: an armed clash between nations or

realized that the earth is not the "center", and
that in the Universe alone there is an immense 200
billion "Suns" in a galaxy like our own. Although
the origin of the solar system is uncertain, most

What Would Happen If The Moon Were Destroyed
1,095 words
What would happen if the moon was destroyed? I
have often wondered what would happen if the moon
were destroyed and how it would be destroyed.
Would a crazy scientist nuke it? Maybe an asteroid
would hit it. Astronomers have catalogued all
large objects in space that are larger than 500
kilometers in diameter and non-of them seem to be
headed towards our moon. Based on this
information, the only conclusion that I can come
up with, was if the moon was to be blown up by
some crazy scientist. Many ...

White Light Red Green

Color is the curves, where the height of the curve
represents the amount, or intensity, of that
particular wavelength. Everyone of these
distribution curves then corresponds to a color of
light. Many of the colors we are familiar with
appear on the EMF visible spectrum, such as red
and yellow. We would therefore expect the
distribution curves of these colors then to have a
positive value only at a certain wavelengths.
Under most conditions this is not true there are
usually traces of all the oth...
