Ice skating

With the help of Zeus, Lumi and Aubin had a girl whom they named Neve. Since the beginning, Zeus told Lumi and Aubin about how special Neve was. He warned them about her special power and how it was very important to control her. Since Neve was conceived with the help of a god, she was different; she wasn't like any other human living among her. She had a very special power: whenever she would feel any type of emotion it would start to snow. From the way the snow would fall from the sky to its…

The Black Ice Disaster “137 and back-up unit to central,” called the dispatcher. “Go ahead central,” I reluctantly relied. Oh no, this cannot be good I thought to myself. Not at this time of the morning. “137 and back-up unit respond to a 10-82 in progress at 1234 River Road.” “10-4 central, I am en route from Bellefield Road.” I had just pulled into my driveway from working and long and cold night shift. I was extremely tired and I just wanted to go to bed. I was planning to sit there in my…

Work Sampler # 4 – Icebreaker/Energizer For the icebreaker the facilitators will be playing Jeopardy; each topic has five questions with five different point levels ranging from 100 to 500. For each topic, there will be a change of text to different questions and an increase of difficulty. The final question will be the will be the most difficult question to challenge the group players. The facilitators have created a power point file with the appropriate questions for the Educational group; all…

Geoscientist have recently brought an end to a once mind boggling mystery of how large lakes that sit above the Greenland ice sheet drain billions of gallons of water in hours! The Greenland ice sheet extends about 656,000 miles covering most of the island. As ice melts it creates huge lake but these massive lakes are soon empty of water; where does it go? “In 2006, Greenland's North Lake, a 2.2 square-mile (5.6 square kilometers) supraglacial meltwater lake, drained almost 12 billion gallons…

each coloured ice to melt on a metal and plastic surface. I also found links to curriculum followed by finding real-world applications which linked to our experiment. The research which I carried out for the science investigation focused on heat energy which related to conduction. The investigation consisted of finding out which coloured ice cube (yellow and blue) with 1, 2 and 3 drops of colour melted faster on metal and plastic. The energy source used to identify which coloured ice cube…

Popping An Ollie Physics Around Campus Ryan Meehan Physics 102 Spring 2017 This is a picture of me popping an ollie in the basement of Dooley Hall. An ollie is the first trick that many skaters learn, as it is the foundation for almost every other trick and can help skaters avoid obstacles such as small cracks and rocks that could ruin your day, and knees. The physics behind popping an ollie is very interesting, and after teaching my friends, and kids that I babysit how to skate…

grateful. Better to be sick now than later, I conclude, aware of the fact that had I been sick at a different time, there would be no greater inconvenience. For now, I have no responsibilities, but four days from now I will be competing in figure skating on behalf of the U.S., and hopefully by then my weakened state will pass. I know I should practice, but currently I can barely move, let alone figure skate. The dark room feels…

Chloe Ning English class April 9th, 2017 Chapter 24 Joy, happiness, excitement, sadness, fear, confuses, worries, and all kinds of feelings come upon Jonas, for the first time he feel all those feelings all at once. Snowflakes falling down from the bright blue sky, the forest are covered with white thick snow. Jonas and Gabriel no longer feel cold, instead they feel cozy and comfortable. The feelings that Jonas is having now, the view he is seeing now, it is just somehow so familiar. He…

Snow globes are made of clear glass, a transparent sphere with a scenic view and a plastic toy inside the globe. The sphere likewise encases the water in the globe; the water fills in as the medium through, where the snow falls. The globe must be shaken to actuate the snow so the white particles can fall gradually to reach the base. When the snowflakes/object falls, it experiences two external forces which are; the gravitational force and the aerodynamic (air resistance) drag of the object,…

It's hard to learn and physically exerting, not to mention the thousands of bruises that come with the learning process. Ice is unforgiving. But after many hours and a pair of brand name snow pants ripped to pieces, I could slide down the bunny slope with ease. "Am I doing this right?" I asked, comparing my wide carving tracks to the straight speed of pros flying out…
