Greenland ice sheet

past experiences that have shaped the way I live my life, but the one that I always think about is when I fell through the ice when I was little. Ice fishing was a huge part of my life when I was little and it still is today. Some of my greatest memories are from ice fishing. My dad and I would usually go every Sunday and listen to the vikings game on the radio while in our ice house. On this Sunday, nothing was different; My dad, my cousin Chris, and I all got up early to see if we could catch…

Ryan Sheckler It all started when he was fourteen from nothing to everything he dreamed of being. When Ryan Sheckler turned pro he had a whole new life ahead of him.

Ryan has reached out to kids…

in texture. When frozen water expands and can cause tissue damage. When the food is thawed it will be mushy and soft because of the tissue damage. When frozen slowly larger crystals will appear and cause more tissue damage. When frozen quickly the ice…

you are using it. Now, for your ice-cream base. Remember, this is the fundamental mixture that you need to make a perfect ice cream. To make a perfect ice cream base: • The basic ratio to make a heavenly base is 2-8 yolks for 3 cups of dairy product. Adjust a number of egg yolks according to your desire. If you want a lighter base, decrease cream and yolks then put more milk. If you want a richer mixture, do the opposite. Yolks enhance the texture of your ice cream and act as an emulsifier…

she excitedly pulls us out of bed. This is her day. It belongs to no one else, her first solo ice skating competition. Preparing for this all important day has taken a great deal of work. Able to walk a balance beam at two, Christy takes to ice skating as quickly as she walks a balance beam. Before long we are involved in a world of group lessons, private lessons, ice pros, costumes, and ice shows. Thank goodness for the Zion Park District, five minutes away, and how lucky we are to…

Snowboarding, skiing, hockey, and ice skating are all pretty common here in Idaho. Although I haven’t gone snowboarding or skiing, I have heard from almost everybody that a trip to do either would not be a waste of time. I can imagine what it would be like and I can’t wait for the day when…

triple loop, the feeling of the ghost cold air pushing against my face as I soar across the ice. The best of all though is the feeling of being on the open ice with no one else on it but you and the judges staring at you and an arena full of people chanting your name and screaming. That is what I thought my life was going to be like, but boy was I wrong, although that is exactly my life on the ice. My life on the ice is probably the only thing I really truly love with all my heart. That and my…

Observations In step one an ice bath was prepared. Then in step two, a pipette was used to measure 1 mL of concentrated nitric acid into a 10 mL graduated cylinder. The concentrated nitric acid was placed into a reaction tube and clamped in the water bath. In step four, 1 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid was added slowly to the traction tube with nitric acid. Then the mixture was left to sit in the ice water bath for at least five minutes. A small plastic bag was filled with ice and a towel was…

Dry Ice Properties Dry ice is a translucent white solid that is also odourless, non-toxic, non-flammable and slightly acidic substance (Department of Biology, 2013). Dry ice is the solid phase of carbon dioxide gas with the chemical formula of CO₂. It consists of two oxygen atoms bonding with one carbon atom. Dry ice has a low melting point of -79°C and it is also denser than air therefore when it sublimates to CO₂, it will replace O₂ in the environment and sink to low areas. Dry ice is a…

in front of your eyes is a perfectly smooth sheet of ice with such a beautiful glossy finish to it. It's about game time. What does that mean? It means the calm before the storm hits. As the puck drops, the storm hits. Fans go crazy and…
