Leonardo da Vinci: Artist, Scientist and Engineer
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing the life, art and engineering designs of Leonardo da Vinci. Leonardo da Vinci is a well known artist who captured the elusive smile of the Mona Lisa and envisioned the Last Supper which many people now associate him with. However, Leonardo da Vinci was perhaps even more accomplished as an �artist-engineer� of the Italian scientific Renaissance which set him apart from the other artists of the time as well as a mathematician, philosopher, naturalist, astronomer, architect, and musician. While quite a lot is known about his works of art, not as much is known about his hundreds of scientific and engineering designs which were well ahead of his time and placed him considerably high in the development of the Italian Renaissance in the arts and sciences. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Living In Virtual Reality
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. What would it be like to live in total virtual reality? Some believe it is the answer to all the world's ills, in that war, hunger and disease could all be programmed out of existence. With such power over these otherwise detrimental entities, life would be absent of all things negative and harmful. However, others contend that programming one's existence from a ready-made set of experiences leaves no possibility for the unknown, the challenging or the inherent element of human disappointment.

Los Angeles Mass Transit System: Success Or Failure?
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. The overpopulated state of Los Angeles and surrounding counties was the definitive directive that began political administrators looking more closely at the broad issue of transportation (Simburger, 1998). According to Scott L. Bottles, author of Los Angeles and the Automobile: The Making of the Modern City, Southern Californians began a love affair with private vehicles that would eventually create a crisis situation where transit was concerned; not only did automobiles provide a sense of freedom and independence, but they also equipped individuals with more advantageous economic choices over trains or street cars. In short, it was the general populace that long resisted � and therefore did not patronize to any great extent � the various forms of mass transit alternatives made available to the traveling public. However, times have changed and so have once-stubborn attitudes, inevitably instilling a brand new � and positive � perspective with regard to contemporary options. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
