'''Donato Bramante''' (1444 - 1514) was an [[Italian]] architect. His main works are ''S. Maria Della Pace'' and ''Tempietto of San Pietro'', both in Italy.

<blockquote>
In his work, Bramante changed conventional architectural space by inserting illusionistic features more typical of painting and stage settings. In his Roman projects, particularly those for St. Peter's, he achieved the "grand manner" which indirectly led to Mannerism. [http://www.greatbuildings.com/architects/Donato_Bramante.html]

In 2009, [[intelligent design]] proponents Dr. [[Stephen Meyer]] and Dr. [[Richard Sternberg]] debated atheist Dr. [[Michael Shermer]] and Dr. Donald Prothero concerning on the topic of the [[origin of life]].<ref>http://greatcloud.wordpress.com/2009/12/07/audio-of-stephen-meyer-vs-michael-shermer-debate/</ref> Shermer and Prothero performed poorly in the debate.

The [[Discovery Institute]] declared concerning the debate:
{{cquote|To call the debate a massacre would be a discredit to Sitting Bull. The only thing I can say is that Shermer needs to add a point to his booklet on how to debate "[[creationism|creationists]]" — namely, leave Donald Prothero at home in his van by the river...

Some of the best points came later in the debate, when Sternberg slammed Prothero with factual put down after factual put down, citing the current literature time and again. His command of the subject matter — from population [[genetics]] to [[Junk DNA|junk DNA]] — was so far and above beyond Shermer and Prothero's knowledge, so far above their pay grade, that it was almost painful to watch him school them point after point. As I said before, shortly you'll be able to watch the debate for yourself. But be warned, it isn't pretty.<ref>http://www.evolutionnews.org/2009/12/ouch_intelligent_design_guys_p.html</ref>}}

An audio copy of the debate has been made available to the public.<ref>http://greatcloud.wordpress.com/2009/12/07/audio-of-stephen-meyer-vs-michael-shermer-debate/</ref> In addition, the debate is available at [[YouTube]].<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3ThFiBLxtU&feature=PlayList&p=6C0852528AD4F139&playnext_from=PL&index=0&playnext=1</ref>

Reverse osmosis

'''Reverse Osmosis''' (RO) is a membrane separation process designed to treat wastewater containing a variety of contaminants including [[organic]] compounds.

In regular [[osmosis]], water flows across a membrane so that the concentration of impurity on each side of the membrane is equal; balance is achieved. In reverse osmosis, the opposite is forced to occur. Pressure is applied to one side of the membrane so that the ending concentration on either side of the membrane is uneven. By employing reverse osmosis, one can take water containing some impurities (such as [[saltwater]]) and pass it through a series of filters that capture the contaminants to achieve drinkable water. Many common water filters today involve the use of reverse osmosis.
