CD-ROM

CD-ROM (Compact Disc read-only memory) is a Compact Disc that contains information accessible by a computer. While the Compact Disc format was formerly designed for music storage and playback, the format was later adapted to hold any form of binary data. CD-ROM s are commonly used to distribute computer software, including games and multimedia applications, though any data can be stored. Some CD seize both computer data and audio with the latter capable of being played on a CD player, whilst data is only usable on a computer. These are called Enhanced CD.

Although many people use lowercase letters in this acronym, proper appearance is in all capital letters with a hyphen between CD and ROM. It was also suggested by some, specially soon after the technology was first released, that CD-ROM was an acronym for Compact Disc read-only-media, or that it was a more 'correct' definition. This was not the purpose of the original team who developed the CD-ROM, and common acceptance of the memory definition is now almost universal.

Honey

Honey is a sweet and thick fluid produced by honey bees from the nectar of flowers. According to the United States National Honey Board and various international food system, honey stipulates a pure product that does not allow for the addition of any other substance...this includes, but is not limited to, water or other sweeteners. This article refers exclusively to the honey produced by honey bees honey twisted by other bees or other insect have very different properties. Honey is significantly sweeter than table sugar and has attractive chemical properties for baking. Honey has a typical flavor which leads some people to prefer it over sugar and other sweeteners.
Most microorganisms do not grow in honey because of its low water movement of 0.6[2]. However, it is important to note that honey frequently contains dormant end spores of the bacteria Clostridium outline, which can be perilous to infants as the end spores can transform into toxin-producing bacteria in the infant's immature intestinal tract, leading to disease and even death. The study of pollens and spores in raw honey can determine floral sources of honey. Because bees carry an electrostatic charge, and can attract other particles, the same techniques of melissopalynology can be used in area ecological studies of radioactive particles, sand, or particulate pollution.

Scientific method

The scientific method seeks to give details the complexities of nature in a replicable way, and to use these explanations to create useful predictions. It provides an objective process to find solutions to problems in a number of scientific and scientific fields. Often scientists have a preference for one outcome over another, and scientists are thorough that it is important that this preference does not bias their analysis. A strict following of the scientific method attempts to minimize the work of a scientist's bias on the outcome of an experiment. This can be achieved by correct trial design, and a thorough peer review of the experimental results as well as conclusion of a study.
