             Narcolepsy is a disease characterized by malfunctioning sleep mechanics.It can consist of a sudden and uncontrolllable bout of sleep during daylight hours and disturbed sleep during nighttime hours.It occurs more often in men than in women,and it commonly makes its appearance during adolescence or young adulthood.At least a half million Americans are believed to be affected by narcolepsy.
            Narcolepsy can take a number of forms during daylight hours.One common sympton of the disease during daytime hours is a sudden attack of REM (rapid-eye movement)sleep during normal waking hours.This occurs in some people hundreds of times in a single day,while others only have rare occurrences.During a sleep attack,narcoleptics may experience automatic behavior,even thought asleep,they may continue automatically performing the activity they were involved in prior to falling asleep.They may,for example,continue walking,or driving,or stirring a pot until the ativity is interrupted by external forces.Others experience cataplexy during daytime hours;cataplexy involves a sudden loss of muscle tone that may cause the head to droop or the knees to wobble in minor attacks or a total collapse in more serious attacks.Cataplexy seems to occur most often in conjunction with intense emotion or excitement.
            During sleep hours,narcolepsy can also manifest itself in a variety of ways.During the traditional phase that precedes the onset of sleep ,it is common for hallucinations to occur.These hallucinations,known as hypnagogic phenomena,consist of realistic perceptions of sights and sounds during the semi-conscious state between wakefulness and sleep.Narcoleptics may also suffer from night wakening during sleep,resulting in extremely fragmented and restless sleep.Then,upon minutes,immediately after waking.

             Just two months after the flight of Apollo 10,the Apollo 11 astronouts made their historic landing on the surface of the moon.This momentous trip for humanity also provided scientists with an abundance of material for study;from rock and soil samples brought back from the Moon,scientists have been able to determine much about the composition of the Moon as well as to draw inferences about the development of the Moon from its composition.               The Moon soil that came back on Apollo 11 contains small bits of rock and glass which were probably ground from larger rocks when meteors impacted with the surface of the Moon.The bits of glass are spherical in shape and constitute approximately half of the Moon soil.Scientists found no trace of animal or plant life in this soil.               In addition to the Moon soil,astronauts gathered two basic ...

             During the heyday of the railroads,when Ameria's rail system provided the bulk of the country's passenger and freight transportation,various types of railroad cars were in servive to accomplish the varied tasks handled by the railroads.One type of car that was not available for public use prior to the civil War,however,was a sleeping car,ideas for sleeping cars abounded at the time, but these ideas were unworkable.It unfortunately took the death of a president to make the sleeping car a viable reality.               Cabinet-maker George M.Pullman had recognized the demand for sleeping cars and had worked on developing experimental models of sleeping cars in the decade leading up to the Civil War.However,in spite of the fact that he had made successful test runs on the chicago and Alton Railroads with his models,he was unable to sell his idea because his models were too wide and too high for...

         Today ,the most universally known style of both men and women is jeans;these trousers are worn throuhout the world on a variety of occasions and in diverse situations.Also called levis or denims,jeans have an interesting history,one that is intermixed with the derivation of the words jeans,denims,and levis.               The word jeans is derived from the name of the place where a similar style of plants developed.In the sixteenth century,sailors from Genoa,Italy,wore a rather unique type of cotton trousers.In the French language,the word for the city of Genoa and for the people from that city is Genes;this name became attached to the specific style of pants worn by the sailors from this city and developed into the word jeans that today describes the descendents of the Genovese sailors' cotton pants.               Similar to the word jeans,the word denim is also derived...
