<title> Most Dangerous Vehicles
<desc> Description:
Which are the most crashworthy, and least crashworthy,
passenger vehicles?
<narr> Narrative:
A relevant document will contain information on the
crashworthiness of a given vehicle or vehicles that
can be used to draw a comparison with other vehicles.
The document will have to describe/compare vehicles,
not drivers. For instance, it should be expected
that vehicles preferred by 16-25 year-olds would be
involved in more crashes, because that age group is
involved in more crashes. I would view number of
fatalities per 100 crashes to be more revealing of
a vehicle's crashworthiness than the number of
crashes per 100,000 miles, for example.

way and the location of the project. Renovation of existing
facilities would be judged not relevant unless plans call for a
significant increase in acre-feet or reservoir or a marked change
in the environmental impact of the project. Arguments for and
against proposed projects are relevant as long as they are supported
by specifics, including as a minimum the name or location of the
project. A statement that an individual or organization is for or
against such projects in general would not be relevant. Proposals
or projects underway to dismantle existing facilities or drain
existing reservoirs are not relevant, nor are articles reporting a
decision to drop a proposed plan.

<title> Implant Dentistry
<desc> Description:
What are the advantages and/or disadvantages of tooth implants?
<narr> Narrative:
A tooth replacement procedure, begun in the 1960s by Doctor
Branemark, is becoming more widely used today. It involves
the replacement of a lost tooth/teeth by an implantation
process which secures the fabricated tooth to a titanium post
with an adhesive resulting in a stable and sturdy denture
almost like the original. A relevant document will include
any clinical experiment, report, study, paper, or medical
discussion which describes the advantages or disadvantages of
tooth implant(s), conditions under which such a procedure is
favorable, denture comfort and function compared to false teeth,
bridge, or plate and comparative cost differential.

<title> Rap and Crime
<desc> Description:
Evidence that rap music has a negative effect on young people.
<narr> Narrative:
The lyrics to Rap music are replete with words which degrade
women, glorify drug abuse, the killing of policemen and even
romanticize suicide. A crusade was begun a few years ago in
which the music industry was asked "to clean up its act"
because of the detrimental effect it was having upon teenagers.
There were some instances in which teenagers, who demonstrated
no sign of internal strife, committed suicide. The only clues
to their self-destruction were notes found near the bodies with
lyrics from Rap songs relating to suicide. A relevant item
should include any psychological study, evidence, poll,
documentation, or psychological opinion that Rap music has a
deleterious effect upon young people and has led to a discernible
change in personality, life style, crime, alteration of personality
or any other negative effect upon the psyche, mores, and culture
of teenagers.

Evidence that radio waves from radio towers or car phones affect
brain cancer occurrence.
<narr> Narrative:
Persons living near radio towers and more recently persons using
car phones have been diagnosed with brain cancer. The argument
rages regarding the direct association of one with the other.
The incidence of cancer among the groups cited is considered, by
some, to be higher than that found in the normal population. A
relevant document includes any experiment with animals, statistical
study, articles, news items which report on the incidence of brain
cancer being higher/lower/same as those persons who live near a
radio tower and those using car phones as compared to those in the
general population.

<narr> Narrative:
A relevant document will contain specific information on the
theft of trade secrets on new or existing technology. Relevant
information includes, but is not limited to, espionage in the
highly competitive fashion industry, toy companies, drug firms,
and computer companies. An apparently legal way of stealing
company secrets is by using the Freedom of Information Act,
passed by the U.S. Congress in 1966 to help people and the
press get information for the public good. The law has often
been used instead by companies for private gain. Documents
discussing company counterespionage are also considered to be
relevant.

<title> Polygamy Polyandry Polygyny
<desc> Description:
A look at the roots and prevalence of polygamy
in the world today.
<narr> Narrative:
Polygamy is a form of marriage which permits a
person to have more than one husband or wife.
Polyandry refers to one woman sharing two or
more husbands at the same time. Polygyny refers
to one man sharing two or more wives at the
same time. Primary focus of the search will be
the prevalence of these practices in the world
today and societal attitudes towards these
practices. Also relevant would be discussions
of the roots and practical sources of these
customs. A modern development in this area is
serial polygamy, a phrase coined to label the
practice of men who take a series of wives in
sequence as a solution to practical welfare,
considerations of child care, housing, etc.
Documents discussing serial polygamy will not
be considered relevant.

fuel sources. Documents may also reveal company
(companies) involved in this research. Listing(s)
of possible new fuel sources is also of relevance.
Relevant documents can also show how much current
fuel sources are available, however, articles
which simply refer to current sources are not
relevant. Documents about nuclear power are
relevant only if they discuss new developments in
the nuclear field, such as the processing of spent
fuel to establish a new nuclear fuel system.

the war against antibiotics and rendering antibiotics
now less effective in treating diseases than they were
in the past.
<narr> Narrative:
A relevant document will address the questions of how
and why, and to what degree, bacteria are able to fend
off the curative effects of antibiotics. Overuse of
antibiotics, as well as the increasing use of antibiotics
in promoting the growth of crops and animals whose food
products are meant for human consumption have played roles
in creating a situation where every known bacteria-generated
disease now has versions that resist at least one of the
more than 100 antibiotics now in use.

software to ensure the secrecy of communications
has been available, but the U.S. Government has
considered such software to be subject to the same
export controls as munitions, and has sought to
restrict the export of encryption software unless
it contains a device which could allow the U.S. to
read the underlying messages. Business interests
say that this will make it impossible for U.S. producers
to compete in the international market.

<narr> Narrative:
A relevant document would contain reports on what
new steps airports worldwide have taken to better
scrutinize passengers and their luggage on
international flights and to step up screening of
all carry-on baggage. With the increase in
international terrorism and in the wake of the
TWA Flight 800 disaster, articles on airport
security relating in particular to additional
steps taken by airports to increase flight safety
would be relevant. The mere mention of enhanced
security does not constitute relevance. Additional
steps refer to something beyond just passenger
and carry-on screening using the normal methods.
Examples of new steps would be additional personnel,
sophisticated monitoring and screening devices,
and extraordinary measures to check luggage in the
baggage compartment.

Is it hazardous to the health of individuals to work
with computer terminals on a daily basis?
<narr> Narrative:
Relevant documents would contain any information that
expands on any physical disorder/problems that may be
associated with the daily working with computer terminals.
Such things as carpel tunnel, cataracts, and fatigue have
been said to be associated, but how widespread are these or
other problems and what is being done to alleviate any
health problems.
