DVDs

Increasingly, oral design presentations are recorded on videotape or DVD to provide a record of the presentations, as well as to enable each design team to critique its own presentation with a view toward improving the next one. In most cases, a portable camcorder, mounted on a tripod, is adequate to capture the bulk of the presentation.

Manufacturers often feel compelled to be very vague about how well a battery will perform because of the uncertainty about how the batteiy will be used.

I trusted Marnie when I was her patient, and I still do. Two years after leaving New Jersey and moving to England, my wife and I wondered about the meaning of some medical test results we had obtained.
