holding the wind turbine was a problem as the wind turbine was gradually sliding down the stand, meaning it had to be re-measured often. If it weren’t to be re-measure, the results would change as the wind from the fan would be hitting the blades on a different angle. Next time, the wind turbine should be stuck to the retort stand with possibly tape to ensure it does not slide down again. Having the fan and the turbine 40 centimetres away from each other was a problem as it made it difficult to…

music, with the renditions of alt-country styles as well as experiments with sonic atmospheres and noise. A song from the album “Ashes of American Flags” varied in vocals with great instrumental backing. This was a contrasting verse-chorus with a 4-measure vamp to slowly introduce the song. The interlude features a bridge with atmospheric noise to segue into the next song in the album. Many of the segments of the song are repeated, although they rarely occur in the…

Mastery Have you ever heard someone comment that another person’s success was due to luck? Perhaps the classic statement that someone’s achievement is due to being born with a silver spoon in their mouth resonates with you.

Perhaps there is another way to view success in any area be it physical, mental,…
S. Navy released a bathymetric chart in 1855 that contained the first real evidence of mountains underwater in the central Atlantic ocean. After World War I was over, echo-sounding devices were invented. These “primitive sonar systems” began to measure the depth of the ocean by noting how long it took for a sound generated from a ship to bounce off the ocean floor and come back. These signals showed scientists that the floor of the ocean was much more rough than they had imagined before. These…
