North Magnetic Pole

metal. By tapping into the power of magnetism, an invisible force that pulls things together or pushes things apart, he can throw cars and move buildings all with the flick of a finger. The Earth itself also happens to be one big magnet, creating a magnetic field, or type of force field, that extends miles beneath the Earth’s surface and into space. Now, split campers into 8 groups of 3 or 4, giving each group two magnets. Have campers hold the magnets close together. What happens? Can they…

Over the course of my life I have come across many obstacles physically, mentally, and spiritually. From the deaths of loved ones and good people I have had the honor to call friends, all the way down to the mud pits and physical hells of being a Marine, the trials and tribulations of my life are many. Sometimes it can be brought to point that I brought this all upon myself, and for the most part this is true. All of the decisions I have made have brought me to where I am at this point,…

On November 12, 1969, six women went on a ski-equipped LC-130 and were escorted to the pole. All six women were advised to jump off the plane at the exact same moment so that way all could claim to be one of the first women to reach the pole. Pam Young, Jean Pearson, Terry Terrell, Lois Jones, Eileen McSaveney, and Kay Lindsay had made history for women by setting foot at the bottom of the world. For Jones, the…

In the article “Ethical and Social Issues in Antidoping Strategies in Sport” by Norman C. Fost, it gives reasons about how the prohibition drugs in athletics have moral principles. Fost is arguing about how prohibiting such drugs is no clear moral principles. I will be analyzing two argument claims in the article of Fost and will also be evaluating Frost’s argument in agreeing with his arguments and reasons. Fost argues about what things are harmful and explains why it is not a good moral claim…

scientific and entrepreneurial. Ernest Shackleton used his journalist contacts in order to promote the expedition. Shackleton was not able to claim Britain as the first to reach the South Pole, although he was within 100 miles. Unfortunately, the Norwegian explorer Ronald Amundsen won the race to the South Pole shortly after Shackleton returned from his voyage. Shackleton felt this new voyage…

Native Americans all across North America have been mistreated since the Europeans first arrived. Despite being treated slightly better than the dust on the ground, they mainly kept to their ways. They never took too much from the land, and many tribes had a well formed way of life. Fast forward to around the 1800’s and they are still living this way, but many are being mistreated. Europeans explored and took land at every chance. This led to many of the remaining Native Americans to be on the…

A broken heart that manifests as chest pain, or a broken arm that does not allow you to pole vault (at the time this was crushing for me, I was actually really good at it), pain left unchecked, creates nothing but more pain. It was the Marines that taught me that no matter what, it will all come to an end eventually. It is in how you handle…

magnets every day without knowing it; it might be fridge magnets, cabinet latches, speakers and other electronic devices. Magnets are used in many different fields such as in medicine, education, science, and just for fun. For example in medicine, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses very strong magnets and radio waves to show doctors inside the human body. In science, magnets can help store information on computers; they are also used in compasses, televisions, stereos, speakers, and…
