(Bettmann, 1974) Thus, the main legal consideration for Proctor & Gamble was not the safety of Tide or indeed any detergent as a product, rather it was forming a patent for its manufacture, to avoid the chemical process for manufacturing detergent becoming widely known. Today, the method of securing patents is so widely circulated that there are books written on the subject in the form of do-it-yourself guides. (Pressman, 2000) Also, there are sites on the Internet devoted to patent protection. But at the time, P&G's methodology of creating something to make whites truly whiter was a hotly contested patented product. After all, "for the farmer's...
(U.S. Water News Online, 1998) In 1970 Canada banned the use of phosphates in laundry detergent, another key substance in the manufacture of Tide at the time.

For this, I found it to be quite interesting. With hints of rhyme, the progression of the tale expresses something dark, which is constantly eluded after the depiction of undesired ash. This poem altered in mere few, subtle absences and additions with the revised edition. Both poems provoke an interest as to what the main issue and dilemma remains for the poet.

The induction effect of static electricity is what allows capacitors to work. Simply put, a charge of any given value on one object will induce an opposite charge on the adjacent surface of any nearby object. Imagine two metal spheres, separated from each other by a small distance. If we charge sphere a negatively, sphere B. will develop a positive charge on the hemisphere adjacent to sphere a. In fact,
