Engineering - November 2007

I am doing a debate and Im on the negative side of it. Its for global warming and using a nuclear power policy to reduce CO2 emissions....This is just a project-nothing real so please I dont need any opinions on what you think about it...I just need a plain simple answer on how long it takes to build power plants and where you got the source...

So the other day when i bought a green laser on ebay...i thought it would be focused and i could see the beam. Its 5mw and when i shine it anywhere it is a giant green blob with several dots within it...and the farther away i shine it, the bigger and more unvisible and unfocused the laser becomes. And theres no beam for starpointing like it said. WHAT IN THE WORLD IS GOING ON???? IS IT BROKEN OR WHAT?? IS A DIODE LASER NO THE RIGHT KIND OR SOMETHIN????? HEELLLLLP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I built a small dc motor for a class using an electromagnet and two AA batteries. The requirements limit me to only using (2) 1.5V batteries. I read that I can increase the torque by either increasing the magnetic field or increase the current. My goal is to lift as much as possible with it, and I am on a limited budget, so the increase in current sounds more desirable I think. Please help!

Im currently working at a major aerospace company making $60K /year but i get paid hourly around $28/ hr plus OT. I do have a BS in electronics engineering.
certificate in labview
certificate in engineering and architectural autocad
certificate in Pro-e
certificate in mechatronics engineering.
certificate in systems Engineering
Certificate in RF engineering.

My undergrad came from a non accredited institution but my certificates came from a well known university.

Is my BS good enough to be in an engineering position. knowing that i have certificates that mainly focus certain fields of engineering.

would it be better to pursue a diff field in engineering knowing that only a few of my credits will transfer. basically starting from the beginning.

Is a Sr engineering technician position considerered as an Engineer Or a technician.

i think it would be a great idea if the aircraft engineers could figure out away to use laser and fiber optics to transport electricity from place to an other instead of billions of wires ! the aicraft would weight way less, and it would take less fuel to operate them. and gravity would have least impact on them.

I read on this sentence that transmission lines are typically used most heavily during off-peak hours. Is it because the off-peak period longer than the peak load period?
