Bobbi Gibb

It was record time speed for a woman. It was interesting the when she was being awarded she looked like she hadn’t even ran a foot. Her hair was perfect, she was barely sweaty whatsoever. So apparently Rosie Ruiz finished the Boston Marathon in almost record time without sweating. It seemed strange to everyone that you had just ran over 26 miles and you were barely breaking a sweat. Once people started getting suspicious they realized, “no one — neither competitors nor spectators — could remember having seen her during the first 25 miles”(Latson). Throughout the whole race, no television cameras picked her up. Once some spectators saw the news they came forward. They said they had seen her enter the race about a mile before the finish. They…

On April 19 1966, Bobbi Gibb became the first women to run in the Boston Marathon—disguised as a man in men’s clothing. Growing up, Gibb was always passionate about running. She spent her adolescent and adult years running for her own enjoyment. After she witnessed her first marathon, Gibb felt the desire to participate in the marathon as a runner. Thus, she took it upon herself to train without professional assistance. By the end of her training, she was able to run 40 miles in one stretch;…

The purpose of this project is to create customer experience map and make recommendations. A customer service map is a diagram of the steps a customer takes while engaging with a company. The company we chose to evaluate is a well-known cell phone service provider known as Sprint. While evaluating many different touch points of our interaction with Sprint we had many thoughts and different emotions. The beginning of any customer journey starts in the parking lot. Fortunately the parking lot of…

3.2 Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) Carbon nanotubes have remarkable adsorption behavior in purification and detoxification of the environmental pollutants[12]. Their characteristics of being highly porous, having large specific area and being not solvable in aqueous solution because of the high Van der Waals interaction forces on the tube walls(pi-stacking) allow them to be great environmental pollutants adsorbent in solution. Thus, researchers have been concentrated on aqueous solution purification…

concentration for the solubility product. The solubility of a compound changes with temperature, so Ksp changes too. Thermodynamics focuses on three large areas; which are enthalpy, entropy, and free energy. Enthalpy change or ΔH, for KNO3 dissolving in water provides the difference in energy between solid potassium nitrate and its dissolved ions. Heat must be added for KNO3 to dissolve. Entropy change or ΔS, indicates the relative disorder of the ions. Free energy change or ΔG indicates whether…

takes a different part in the main plot. An individual’s actions and characteristics can majorly impact the events that will occur in the future: such as the revenge of a previously known character. The main character of this show is Jethro Gibbs. Gibbs is the leader of his team of agents and likes his authority but also enjoys being equal to them. He is their teacher but also is beside them rather than above them. Gibbs was a Gunnery Sergeant in the Marine Corps before joining NCIS and he is…
