Winter Hill Gang

For my animal performance scene I was a reindeer. The biggest strengths that I had for my scene was my movement, portrayal of eating, and display of the prey-like nature of a reindeer. During research I learned that a reindeer walks heavily but also spry. I properly conveyed this concept in my scene by leaping from leg to leg, making sure to lead with my knees when I was in the air and to place my weight on my leading foot when I landed. Since reindeer eat grass and shrubs that is often buried…

bleakness of winter can sometimes cause people to experience the winter blues. These people fall into a state of melancholy, and sometimes even depression, because of the cold gloominess that an Idaho winter can bring. If you were to compare people to birds, most birds are miserable in Idaho during the winter. When temperatures start dropping they retreat to warmer weather where they are more comfortable. Like birds, some people migrate south for several months to avoid the bitter cold Idaho…

After a long time cooped up in the house even the best behaved pooch will be antsy. Winter is the most common time for this to happen. A combination of long dark hours, deep snow and plunging temperatures may make it hard for a dog to get all the outside time she needs. But an active dog can get a bad case of canine cabin fever at any time in Golden or Lakewood. Even the best and most involved owner can find themselves with a dog with a bad case of canine cabin fever any time of the year. The…

I needed, just needed, a new bicycle. I did eventually get that bike, and now it sits on a garage shelf, collecting dust. I hear a quiet voice calling out to me from the distance. It slowly turns louder, and I see a figure appear from atop of the hill that our gravel road is on. It is our neighbor, Muriel. She's an old lady of about 75, I'd expect, and waddles a bit as she struggles…

With the onset of winter near in sight, like many others, I am preparing for the cold weather approaching. This preparation normally starts with ensuring our vehicles are ready for the long, harsh, and cold weather that will eventually come to this area. One of the most important items on my list would be new brake pads and shoes on all of our vehicles. What makes this a need vs. a wanted item is the fact that I want to ensure the safety of my family members and myself. In particular, having…

birth of Frankenstein’s creation takes on the day of a “dreary night of November” (Shelley, 56). This quotes foreshadows hardships on the life of the creature because of the on a “dreary night” and the month of November. The month of November is the winter season and nothing can grow during that season just as the love of the creature did not grow. The creature has to live through all the season and he grows and he has a fond in the human language.…

1. Describe what changes between January, April, July, and October. In January, a continuous, circular jet stream goes from Africa to the west coast of North America until it splits up into two S shaped streams (one over Africa and one over the ocean between Asia and North America). A distinct ridge and trough develops over North America. Depending on the day of the month, there is a trough, continuous jet stream, or broken up jet stream over the ocean between North America and Africa. In April…

According to the International Snowmobiler Manufacturers Association, the average age of a snowmobiler is 44 years old, and there are over 3,000 snowmobile clubs worldwide involved in trail grooming and family activities (Snowmobiling). From the day I was born, I have been a part of a local snowmobile club because of my parents’ love and commitment for the sport. With over 3,000 active snowmobile clubs worldwide and at least 250 in Minnesota, there is the opportunity to become involved, but the…

The existing storage environment and furniture are located in a semi-secure classroom located in Carnahan Hall on the Southeast Missouri State University campus. Presently most of the Jaycees Collection is stored in cardboard boxes whereas some artifacts are not due to their size. The collection is located on the shelving in the back of the classroom. The temperature of the room where the collection is currently housed is controlled by a central thermostat of the building and is impacted by the…
