fish and foolbirds. Brian also gets attacked by a moose. He sleeps, but is awakened by a tornado.

Check kiting is an illegal practice that takes advantage of the time it takes checks to clear the payment system. This time, known as float, allows the “check kiter” use of nonexistent funds. Kiting can lead to enormous account balances on paper – and a loss for the credit union when the kite eventually collapses. In fact, check kiting is considered the largest loss exposure associated with any share draft/checking account program. Losses from check kiting can threaten the solvency of a credit…

Quiet Zones, Good Or Bad? In many towns across the United States of America, railroads intersect with highways. Some of these crossings have what are known as a quiet zones, where there are 500 to 1000 yards where a locomotive engineer can’t sound the horn. At first this was a great idea; people were sleeping soundly without being woken up by the trains. That is basically all quiet zones do. The people and railroader were happy for a while.

barricade against me, but every time I broke through. Once I got the pass from my teammate in the high slot, I gathered all the strength I could and fired the puck, as hard as I could. I was hungry and envious to get that goal. I watched the puck float crisply through the brisk cold air, then it bounced off the goalies stick, hit the crossbar, and went in! Once I knew it was in I had a huge grin on my mug and was filled with happiness I thought “Yes, Yes, Yes”! At that time I could not believe…

The ark was designed to float and withstand barbaric merciless waters to preserve life and whatever was instructed by God to be on the vessel.

I spotted the Green frog or can be called “Lithobates clamitans” in the pond during our first lab looking for dragon flies. The scientific name is Rana Clamitans. Also, the frog was classified under Species. The green frog is very common and found all around in North America. The frog looked about full grown and was half in the water and half out the water soaking up the sun. It was a bright green color staying as still as can be, so it was hard to spot. It was a bright and fairly warm day, so…

The sea swallow, scientifically known as Glaucus atlanticus, is one of the oddest creatures the ocean has to offer. Technically a type of sea slug, it floats on the surface upside-down, with its belly (or “foot”) and mouth facing toward the sky. It has the appearance of a tapered cross with six arms instead of two, each arm culminating in a burst of short radiating tentacles, cetera, which give the impression of feathered wings. Most of its body is a bright silvery blue, while a richer navy…

I appreciate this fascinating poem because Edward Hirsch describes a simple fast break in basketball as a slow, yet complex action performed by players. He writes as if everything is occurring in slow motion due to the the use of descriptive words evoking the five senses. Using imagery through his work, I get the feeling of tension and accomplishment through these stanzas. Playing basketball before, I have definitely experienced what he described in real life. There are many aspects to this…
