Abstract
This paper provides an overview and background of currentf music technology products on the market. These include recording software, mixers, microphones, pre-amps and converters. The functions of various components used in the production process are also described.

From the Paper
"Technology has always been a part of music, whether it was deciding which animal skins made the best drum covers or which woods yielded specific timbre in violins. Today technology affects the acoustics in performance halls and studios as well as the instruments themselves. Increasingly technology is an integral part of the recording process, including the recording technology itself as well as post-production tasks. Music professionals need to understand the functions of various components used in the production process from recording..."

Abstract
The purpose of this essay is to examine the level of involvement needed by directors, management and major shareholders in establishing and continuously encouraging effective corporate governance practices. Further, the role for legislation and regulation in supplementing and strengthening such practices is also discussed. The paper makes reference to corporate disasters experienced by corporations such as Enron, HIH Insurance, WorldCom, AMP, Harris Scarfe and One.Tel, which have all drawn great attention to the issue of corporate governance and how corporations are controlled, managed and regulated.

From the Paper
"Corporate failures, such as WorldCom and the HIH collapse, have deprived millions of company employees and shareholders of their lifetime savings and retirement benefits (Shang, 2003). Some have argued for greater legislation (Dallas & Bradley, 2002), while others have pointed out that corporate governance is not just about legal and regulatory compliance but rather it is about building a culture based on sound business practices, ethics (Julien & Rieger, 2003), and creating a climate of trust and honesty."

"GSM is the pan-European standard for digital cellular telephone service. GSM networks are an alternative to current AMPS systems. In the future, they will support enhanced data applications. GSM was designed for European markets to provide the advantage of automatic, international roaming in multiple countries. The SIM (Subscriber Identification Module) card is a vital component in GSM operation. The user can store all relevant data for the phone on a removable plastic card. The card can be plugged into any GSM compatible phone and the phone is instantly personalized to the user."

Abstract
This paper presents in chronological order the study of lightning and how as new ideas would come about and be proven, other inventors would use that idea and take it into a new direction.

From the Paper
"Lightning is a form of static electricity. When it is raining, raindrops can acquire extra electrons. These negatively charged raindrops seek out the positively charged ground. When these two charges connect, current flows through randomly placed areas of charged particles. This is what lightning is, and what gives it the jagged pattern (see diagram). Lightning has been on Earth longer than people have. Still we don't know everything about it. We do know that lightning can take a variety of forms. The most common are forked, streak, ribbon, or bead lightning. All of these types are essentially the same with variations on atmospheric conditions. There is one type called ball lightning, but very little is known about this type. It is also known that lightning will travel from cloud to cloud, cloud to ground, and ground to cloud. Early studies done to find that lightning is electricity paved the way for several other important findings about electricity and how it behaves."
