the home pitcher struck the first guy out, at this point there was no score but, we were hopeful that our team would win, much like anyone would. We watched in silence as our pitcher struck the last guy out, and it was our team’s time to bat again. We watched as the first guy stepped up to the plate, all eyes were on him as he hit his first ball, but, it did go to the outfield, it went up in the air. At this point all eyes watched the sky for the foul, my husband being the 6ft 1in…
Every time Joe Reliford went to grab a bat to give to a player to use, the fans would yell, “put the bat boy in”, as a joke. When the team were losing blunderingly, and the crowd was trying to rub it in. The manager had a “what the hell” moments and asked player Ray Nichting, a right fielder, if he minded that Joe hit for…
In the first chapter of this week’s reading, Dawkins’ discusses complex design versus simple design. I found this chapter very interesting for a few reasons. First, I liked how he explained the difference between complex and and simple design. He explains that simple designs, such as objects like rocks, are made by physics. He states that they do not have a unique design and if you cut any of them in half they would all seem mostly similar because they are typically homogenous. In the cases in…
Newton's Laws of Motion surround people everyday. People see them everyday but do they really know what they are and why they're here? The laws are here to understand why and what happens when using forces. Newton's laws have everything to do with forces and motion. There are three laws; the first being every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it. The second is the relationship between an object's mass m, its…
regions that flank the DSB in the Helitron and that flank the original host sequence captured by the Helitron. Helitrons, like all other TEs, are potential insertional mutagens. (1) Grabundzija et al. reconstructed Helraiser, an ancient element from the bat genome, and use this transposon as an experimental tool to unravel the mechanism of Helitron transposition. A hairpin close to the 3′-end of the transposon functions as a transposition terminator. However, the 3′-end can be bypassed by the…
could not go because it was lightning outside but, he refused to listen, and she was not a woman of conflict, so she reluctantly let him go. When it was his turn to bat McFarkel was so excited! He had been working on his form with his father all week. He slowly stepped up to the plate and positioned his feet, as he pulled back his bat to go for the swing, BOOM! He had been struck, the other boys went into panick while running to his mothers house. When they reached his mother and told her the…
known for an incident that occurred in a game against the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1965. During the third inning, one of Dodger catcher Johnny Roseboro’s return throw grazed Marichal’s ear. He then responded by hitting Roseboro’s vulnerable head with his bat, which required him to have 14 stitches. Marichal was kicked off the team, suspended for eight days, fined $1,750, could not attend the Giants’ final series with the Dodgers. But eventually Marichal and Roseboro became close friends and even…
Superman is an all-powerful alien from Krypton with supernatural abilities such as super strength and heat vision.Batman, however, is simply a man in a bat suit without super powers, how could Batman even prevail against Superman?Batman's not an ordinary human that you may think, he possesses no weakness, he's a remarkably intelligent man, he knows supermans weakness, and since he acknowledges martial arts he can protect himself from danger.Although both Superman and Batman are superheroes,…
male finds a female octopus, he breaks off one of his arms and crawls inside her to store sperm, then swims off to die. Actually, that doesn’t sound very fun at all, but at least he got a happy ending, right? 14. This cracked out looking bat is not a bat at all but a lemur. The aye-aye lemurs are only native to Madagascar. Resembling a rodent like appearance, they have big eyes for adjusting in the dark and long thin fingers to scrape grubs out of trees and sharp teeth to grind out wood.…
During our 2 weeks of teaching our lessons I was able to observe 7 different activities and games. Some of the activities that I was able to experience and observe were practicing balance, baseball or striking skills, badminton, volleyball, tennis, soccer, and dancing. All the activities were different, although some of the activities were similar on the skills we are practicing or learning, but all were unique in their own way. Starting with the balance activity with Jaelyn and Allie the…
