The Thin Ice

then for the Zamboni to smooth the ice to perfection once more. Soon he would be on the ice. Taking a deep breath his head softly bobbed to the music that was playing in his ears. He knew this song backwards and forwards and every which way his coach had told him to memorize it. This was one of his favorite songs that he had skated to so far! This song kept his interest and the moves matched it so well that it felt like breathing to him. He was meant to be on ice. Steve had learned to skate when he

Used as a standalone poultice, as part of poultice or as a medicinal wash, slippery elm is valuable in treating spider bites naturally. The inner bark can be used create a poultice to reduce swelling and help manage pain. Native Americans would soak thin strips of the inner bark until the bark was pliable, then they wrapped a strip of bark around wounded areas until the bark dried out again. In addition to poultices, slippery elm bark can be decocted into an antiseptic wash, useful for bathing infected

Deep down in the ocean maze. My body is crumbling into fear that the maze closing in. in the coldest night of the falling sky my body is shifting from the hottest sun to the coldest stone ice. The ice breaks when hits the core of my mystery eyes. My eyes are playing tricks on me. I sense something near me that is levitating over me. over me a flying piglet swine is laughing at me over the waterfalls. Then I turn near to the waterfalls looking through the clearly water. The water projection swerving

Jupiters Moon. Eupora is the sixth closest moon to the faraway planet. Scientist say that it has an ocean and a thin shelf of ice. it was discovered by Galileo in January 1610. Nasa scientist believe that one of the moon’s closest to Jupiter is believed to be far more likely to be habitable than the desert covered planet, Mars. Its ocean, thin shelf of ice and the presence of oxidant on Eupora makes it far more likely to be home to a life form than that of the red

The air was crisp. A slight breeze drifted over the ice covered river. The sun was illuminating onto the ice making a bright white light. You could not have asked for a better day of ice fishing. Luckily for us, we got settled just in time for the chaotic weather. We had our shack 15 yards from the 13th pillar under the Singing Bridge. Shacks were scattered all over the river like stars in the sky. It was about 25 degrees out, perfect for ice fishing. Everybody

last thirty-five years all agree upon the notion of shrinking, and or retreating of the ice sheets. The melting of ice sheets has powerful implications for the millions of people who depend on glacial melt for drinking water and the millions of people who will be displaced by the sea level rise occurring as a direct result of the melting. The observations of ice melting also show that the rate at which the ice is melting is accelerating. Mountain glaciers around the world are also on the retreat.

quickly leaving you without any entertainment if you haven't planned carefully. For younger children, purchase dry ice and put chunks of it into the bottom of a large styrofoam cooler. Put a layer of thin styrofoam on top, but poke holes in the styrofoam so that vapor can get through. On top of this, place a layer of thick window screen. As the cooler fills with fog from the dry ice, add a number of different colored marbles to the bottom of the cooler. Tell the children that they are ghosts or ghouls

time that water has been detected in the asteroid belt, and provides proof that Ceres has an icy surface and an atmosphere,” says Michael Küppers of ESA’s European Space Astronomy Centre in Spain.”7 Ceres is made up of three layers: a thin, dusty outer crust, a water-ice layer and a rocky inner core. Since the 1990s, there was speculation about “possible sublimation… at the dwarf planet’s North Pole.”2 Recently, “scientists using the Herschel Space Observatory found evidence of water vapour on Ceres

What is your biggest fear? In the nonfiction story Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer climbing to the top of Mount Everest is his biggest dream but also their greatest fear. The intense journey of climbing up and ascending down the mountain Krakauer and his climbing companions push through many obstacles including nature, their mind, and fear. Fear is a common theme in Into Thin Air it also occurs in the novel The Alchemist. Paulo Coelho’s The Alchemist is an inspiring story about a boy named Santiago

Sun. It is a very unique and interesting planet. Its famous 'Red Spot' and raging gas storms give it a cool look. Jupiter is an outer planet and a gas giant. Most gas giants have many moons and are surrounded by a set of rings or a thin disk of small particles of ice and rock. Like all gas giants, Jupiter has a thick atmosphere made up of mostly hydrogen and helium. Jupiter is much larger than Earth. You can fit about 1,300 Earths into Jupiter. The great red spot is a storm larger than Earth, which
