Dual-purpose design for Interstate Highway

To support automobile and heavy truck traffic, interstate highways are also designed for use in military and civil guard operations within the United States, mainly troop movements.

One potential civil guard use of the Interstate highway system is for the urgent situation evacuation of cities in the event of a potential nuclear war. Although this use has not at all happened, the Interstate Highway System has been used to make easy evacuations in the face of hurricanes and other natural disasters. An alternative for maximizing throughput is to reverse the flow of traffic on one side so that all lanes become outbound lanes. Several Interstates in the South U.S., together with I-16 in Georgia, I-40 in North Carolina, I-65 in Alabama, and I-10 in Louisiana, are equipped and signed for reverse flow, with crossovers inland after most important interchanges to deal out much of the traffic. This is on the other hand not limited to Interstates; State Road 528 has the same setup in central Florida.

A widespread but false urban legend states that one out of all five miles of the Interstate highway system have to be built straight and flat, so as to be usable by aircraft during times of war. On the other hand, the Germans in World War II used the Autobahns for just such a purpose or target.

The different fashions of Lens

The color of the lens can differ with fashion, but for common use, green, grey, or brown is suggested to keep away from or minimize color distortion, that could be unsafe when, for case, driving a car. The Grey lenses are considered neutral for the reason that they do not improve contrast or distort colors. The Brown and green lenses cause some minimal color distortion, but have the contrast-enhancing properties. Red lenses are excellent for medium and lower light circumstances for the reason that they are good at enhancing contrast. Orange and yellow lenses have the top contrast improvement and depth perception. That is why yellow lenses are generally used by golfers and shooters. The Blue and purple lenses give no real benefits. The Clear lenses are used primarily to care for the eyes from impact, debris, or chemicals.

Aside from the lens color, there are some sunglasses have a mirrored coating on the outer surface. This mirrored coating reflects a few of the light when it hits the lens before it is transmitted through the lens making it valuable in bright conditions. These mirrored coatings can be made any color by the maker for styling and fashion purposes. The color of the mirrored surface is inappropriate to the color of the lens. For instance, a gray lens can have a blue mirror coating, and a brown lens can contain a silver coating. These types of sunglasses are at times called mirror shades.

Other models have polarized lenses to lessen glare caused by light reflected from polarizing surfaces like water with the polarized diffuse sky radiation (skylight).Some models make use of a degradation where the top of the glass is darker and the bottom is transparent. Depending on the company, any of the above features can be combined into a set of lenses for a pair of sunglasses. Before the beginning of sunglasses, one-eyed people could wear an eye patch to not disturb other people. Few people who are severely visually impaired but still sighted wear sunglasses to protect their vision against glare.

The real facts about Pluto

Pluto orbits away from the orbit of Neptune (usually). It is greatly smaller than any of the official planets and currently classified as a "dwarf planet". Pluto is lesser than seven of the solar system's moons (the Moon, Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto, Titan and Triton). Pluto has been given number 134340 in the minor planet catalog. Pluto's orbit is extremely eccentric. At times it is nearer to the Sun than Neptune (as it was from January 1979 thru February 11 1999). Pluto rotates in the conflicting direction from most of the other planets.

Pluto is safe in a 3:2 resonance with Neptune; i.e. Pluto's orbital period is just 1.5 times longer than Neptune's. Its orbital inclination is as well much higher than the other planets'. Thus though it looks that Pluto's orbit crosses Neptune's, it actually doesn't and they will never collide. Pluto's composition is unidentified, but its density (about 2 gm/cm3) indicates that it is almost certainly a mixture of 70% rock and 30% water ice much like Triton. The bright areas of the surface appear to be covered with ices of nitrogen with lesser amounts of (solid) methane, ethane and carbon monoxide. The composition of the darker areas of Pluto's surface is unidentified but may be due to primordial organic material or photochemical reactions driven by cosmic rays.

Little is recognized about Pluto's atmosphere, but it perhaps consists primarily of nitrogen with some carbon monoxide and methane. It is very tenuous, the surface pressure being only some microbars. Pluto's atmosphere can exist as a gas only when Pluto is near its perihelion; for the greater part of Pluto's long year, the atmospheric gases are frozen into ice. Close to perihelion, it is likely that some of the atmosphere escapes to space possibly even interacting with Charon. NASA mission planners want to appear at Pluto while the atmosphere is still unfrozen.

Pluto's orbit is extremely eccentric. At times it is nearer to the Sun than Neptune (as it was from January 1979 thru February 11 1999). Pluto rotates in the conflicting direction from most of the other planets.

Pluto is safe in a 3:2 resonance with Neptune; i.e. Pluto's orbital period is just 1.5 times longer than Neptune's. Its orbital inclination is as well much higher than the other planets'. Thus though it looks that Pluto's orbit crosses Neptune's, it actually doesn't and they will never collide. Pluto's composition is unidentified, but its density (about 2 gm/cm3) indicates that it is almost certainly a mixture of 70% rock and 30% water ice much like Triton. The bright areas of the surface appear to be covered with ices of nitrogen with lesser amounts of (solid) methane, ethane and carbon monoxide. The composition of the darker areas of Pluto's surface is unidentified but may be due to primordial organic material or photochemical reactions driven by cosmic rays.

Little is recognized about Pluto's atmosphere, but it perhaps consists primarily of nitrogen with some carbon monoxide and methane. It is very tenuous, the surface pressure being only some microbars. Pluto's atmosphere can exist as a gas only when Pluto is near its perihelion; for the greater part of Pluto's long year, the atmospheric gases are frozen into ice. Close to perihelion, it is likely that some of the atmosphere escapes to space possibly even interacting with Charon. NASA mission planners want to appear at Pluto while the atmosphere is still unfrozen.

Dual-purpose design for Interstate Highway

To support automobile and heavy truck traffic, interstate highways are also designed for use in military and civil guard operations within the United States, mainly troop movements.

One potential civil guard use of the Interstate highway system is for the urgent situation evacuation of cities in the event of a potential nuclear war. Although this use has not at all happened, the Interstate Highway System has been used to make easy evacuations in the face of hurricanes and other natural disasters. An alternative for maximizing throughput is to reverse the flow of traffic on one side so that all lanes become outbound lanes. Several Interstates in the South U.S., together with I-16 in Georgia, I-40 in North Carolina, I-65 in Alabama, and I-10 in Louisiana, are equipped and signed for reverse flow, with crossovers inland after most important interchanges to deal out much of the traffic. This is on the other hand not limited to Interstates; State Road 528 has the same setup in central Florida.

A widespread but false urban legend states that one out of all five miles of the Interstate highway system have to be built straight and flat, so as to be usable by aircraft during times of war. On the other hand, the Germans in World War II used the Autobahns for just such a purpose or target.

The different fashions of Lens

The color of the lens can differ with fashion, but for common use, green, grey, or brown is suggested to keep away from or minimize color distortion, that could be unsafe when, for case, driving a car. The Grey lenses are considered neutral for the reason that they do not improve contrast or distort colors. The Brown and green lenses cause some minimal color distortion, but have the contrast-enhancing properties. Red lenses are excellent for medium and lower light circumstances for the reason that they are good at enhancing contrast. Orange and yellow lenses have the top contrast improvement and depth perception. That is why yellow lenses are generally used by golfers and shooters. The Blue and purple lenses give no real benefits. The Clear lenses are used primarily to care for the eyes from impact, debris, or chemicals.

Aside from the lens color, there are some sunglasses have a mirrored coating on the outer surface. This mirrored coating reflects a few of the light when it hits the lens before it is transmitted through the lens making it valuable in bright conditions. These mirrored coatings can be made any color by the maker for styling and fashion purposes. The color of the mirrored surface is inappropriate to the color of the lens. For instance, a gray lens can have a blue mirror coating, and a brown lens can contain a silver coating. These types of sunglasses are at times called mirror shades.

Other models have polarized lenses to lessen glare caused by light reflected from polarizing surfaces like water with the polarized diffuse sky radiation (skylight).Some models make use of a degradation where the top of the glass is darker and the bottom is transparent. Depending on the company, any of the above features can be combined into a set of lenses for a pair of sunglasses. Before the beginning of sunglasses, one-eyed people could wear an eye patch to not disturb other people. Few people who are severely visually impaired but still sighted wear sunglasses to protect their vision against glare.
