How do you set the skyscan atomic clock model 88722ALU or 86722ALU?
Follow the directions! Set your time zone, then set the clock manually. It took a full day for my clock to actually update itself, so don't get discouraged if it doesn't right away.
What are advantages and disadvantages of speakers?
nothing is wrong about speakers beside they all are terrible do not buy speakers that are black the sound doesnt work...buy beats speakers in white its the only way to have good sound.....small disadvantage would be that you need speakers that match your amp. So you can have very expensive amp with very expensive speakers sounding worst then cheaper combination
Explain the diference between batch processing and real-time processing?
IN REAL TIME SYSTEM THE OUTPUT HAS COME IN QUICK RESPONSE. WHEN THE USER ENTER HIS QUERY THEN THE OUTPUT COMES IN FEW SECONDS. AND IN BATCH PROCESSING SYSTEM THE THE SYSTEM IS NOT DESIGNED FOR QUICK RESPONSE AND THE USER ENTERS HIS QUERY DAY BY DAY IN A PUNCH CARD AND THE RESULT WILL BE SHOWN TO HIM BY SYSTEM IN FEW DAYS DEPENDING UPON THE QUERY.
What music emerged the most in the 1930's?
"On this site, the decade of the 1930's is divided into two halves, 1930-1934 and 1935-1939, for the music of the period lends itself to such a division. Over the course of the thirties American taste in music changed dramatically. In the mainstream it moved from the bland and unchallenging "sweet" sound of Guy Lombardo and the Jazz Age dance bands to the more rhythmically involved and aggressive horn arrangements of the bandleaders of the Swing Era such as Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey and many others. The first collection of songs, from 1930-1934, features regionally popular artists performing vernacular material. These performances were recorded during the initial wave of interest in "race records," "hillbilly," and "ethnic" music by major recording companies that led to the search for "new" performers throughout the southern and western states until the economic strain of the Depression precluded such endeavors. The jazz and blues selections in the first set of songs clearly demonstrate the emergence of significant musical forms with selections by pre-swing greats Louis Armstrong and Fletcher Henderson. The second set of songs from the middle of the decade to the end represents the emerging modern forms of American popular music. One can hear the fine-tuning of rhythm and blues in works by Ellington, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald and Cleo Patra Brown. The swing era is realized with recordings of Tommy Dorsey, Benny Goodman and Artie Shaw. Stars on the silver screen and in the sound booth, Fred Astaire and Judy Garland let us know of an alliance between the Hollywood machinery, the record industry and radio that grew in strength and influence as the decade wore on. The trademark sound of the Glen Miller Orchestra "Moonlight Serenade" would provide a generation with musical memories of American life during the Second World War."

What does scramble channel on a TV screen in a satellite reciver mean?
It means that either your receiver isn't properly locked onto the signal or it hasn't the authorization to receive the signal, or it's a different type of encoding than your receiver can handle. This is just but the first three reasons that came to mind. And yes, there are other possible causes as well.
When does a short circuit happen?
Short circuit is caused due to connection of earth and current wire.Because electrons start transferring from current wire to earth wire that is from high potential to zero potential and sparking occures due to electron transfering with high energy and heat is also evolved.
What is the difference between dynamic and native contrast ratio?
Static and Dynamic Contrast Ratios Faced with several different models of televisions from various manufacturers, the contrast ratio is one of the most important factors to consider in making your decision. A contrast ratio is defined as the difference between the lightest color and the darkest color the television is capable of producing. Basically, higher contrast ratios should yield more vibrant whites and deeper blacks. However, there are several important factors to consider when comparing contrast ratios: whether the contrast ratio is static or dynamic, and what effect your room will have on the visible contrast ratio. A static contrast ratio is the contrast ratio at a given point in time. Imagine pausing a movie and establishing the contrast ratio at that particular frame. Plasma televisions usually have vastly superior static contrast ratios to LCD flat panels. A dynamic contrast ratio is the overall contrast ratio the television can produce over time. Most LCD manufacturers now advertise dynamic rather than static contrast ratios, which often surpass Plasma TV's static ratios. Static and dynamic comparisons each have their pros and cons. A high dynamic contrast ratio is preferable for prolonged scenes that take place in dark settings or black and white movies in general. A static contrast ratio offers superior performance when there are sudden transitions from a well lit atmosphere to a darker one, and vise versa. ---- Recommended Contrast Ratios For Plasma Televisions
» Static Contrast Ratio of 5,000 : 1 or a higher
For LCD Televisions
» Static Contrast Ratio of 1,000 : 1 or higher
» Dynamic Contrast Ratio of 10,000 : 1 or higher
---- However, contrast ratio should never be your sole decision making factor. Firstly, most manufacturer's have slightly different ways of measuring contrast ratios. Secondly, contrast ratios are always measured in ideal viewing conditions (essentially, a pitch black room.) Depending on the lighting conditions in your room, your visible contrast ratio will generally be much lower than the manufacturer's claims. In short, a contrast ratio is a useful although imperfect benchmark for comparing different televisions, but it should never be used as a sole consideration.
It is a liquid crystal display, the most popular type of computer screen today.
Is there a machine to convert 35mm negatives to digital photos?
Yes. There are scanners designed specifically for this purpose, sometimes called negative scanners (which is mildly inaccurate). They are typically much more expensive than plain old flatbed scanners. You might want to look at the ones made by Nikon, or if you don't mind something used and older, try to find a Minolta film scanner.
Large commercial outfits will use enormous and frighteningly expensive drum scanners for the same purpose. Depending on how many you're scanning, you may well find it cheaper to get in contact with a company that deals with this sort of thing.
What are the three types of microphone?
o good overview is at http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/1995_articles/jun95/microphones.html here the broken down list: dynamic microphones: mesh ball on a stick, used in live sound-- inexpensive and hard-wearing capacitor microphones: more sensitive than the dynamic, picks up high-frequency sound, needs electric source to receive electrical charge electret microphones: similar principle as capacitor microphones, except its diaphragm uses an insulating material-- as a result, it has a permanent electrical charge
How was music made in the 1960's?
by going to a record dealer like jerry lee Louis went to sun records were they would play and get it published.
When was microwave oven invented?
In 1947, the first commercial microwave oven hit the market at $5,000 each. It was over 5 feet tall and weighed 750 lbs. Sometime between 1952-55, Tappan introduced the first home model priced at $1295.
You must be talking about Admiral Grace Hopper.
This a learned skill, basically it is very similar to some of the skills learned when gas welding. Both processes require a source of heat to melt the base metal and a separate source of filler material . Both require the use of two hands. The exception is when you are fuse welding. Melting the edges of two pieces to flow together.
Why was the hearing aid invented?
The first hearing aids were made in the 1500s out of wood so nobody really knows who invented them. They looked like the human ear. By the 19th century, hearing aids were sold in many parts of the world as consumer products. However, the hearing aids of those times were affordable only by the upper class.
Why refregirator freezers are on top?
Actually, you can get refrigerator freezers in both configurations. From what I was told the original configuration had the freezer on bottom. This was because you had to buy big cubes of ice to keep things cold and you didn't have to lift the block as high and the melting block didn't get everything wet.
How do you jail brake an I-pod touch?
To install 'grey market' (ahem) games you will need to install a new (unofficial and unsupported) operating systems (eg IPodLinux, and Rockbox).
Check the websites below to see if your IPod has enough memory, and is the correct Gen for the software to work.

What problems did technology bring?
Technology inherently breeds laziness, as jobs that were once done by people can be done by machines, and machines make our lives generally easier and require less work. Machines and factories also contribute to air and water pollution across the planet. When people really enjoy technology, it is also easy to become addicted to it, which breeds problems of its own. It also changes and updates so rapidly that something recently bought can quickly become outdated and ineffective.
What is monolithic integrated circuit technology?
Monolithic integrated circuit technology is a system of electronics that are interconnected through a single piece. This single piece is a semiconductor crystal.
What was Percy L. Spencer's nationality?

Pricing of electronics changes almost day to day. A store with the best prices today may not be the best price tomorrow. It also depends on your location. Buying locally may be less expensive because of shipping and import duties.
When you are ready to buy, hunt through the magazines, the web and local papers to get the best possible price.
Happy shopping!

Why do people use too much electricity?
If you leave lights on when you are not using them and leave the TV on when you are not watching it, you are using too much electricity. You can actually cut your electric use and bill by shutting off lights when you are not using them, turning off appliances, including computers.
