Planning terrorism act in Edinburgh, Scotland Bearing the tightened security measures across many countries, planning a terror attack of mass populations is a very tricky affair hence needs keen planning and knowing the loopholes. As a leader of the terrorism unit responsible for accomplishing an attack on Edinburg, I will train my team to target a relatively smaller number of people who are mostly regarded not as high terrorism targets but are in such a number that will communicate to the CT

Many situations throughout life cause a desire to obtain more, to find better and to escape reality. The novel Krik? Krak! by Edwidge Danticat explores Haitian life and the people who live there who desire better. In the novel the motif of flight and symbol of the butterfly are used to depict people’s need to escape to a better life. The motif of flight is first use in Nineteen Thirty-Seven when a woman saves both her daughter’s and her own life by crossing Massacre River into Haiti. The crisis

To fix the balloon problem, we used a wider piece of cardboard to make it so there was no possible way for the balloon to hit the ground to cause friction. On our third test, the balloon didn’t touch the ground, which was a success. What the balloon did touch was instead the wheel. This was at least better than when the balloon touch the ground, but it still slowed the car down. On this test, the car traveled nearly 7 meters in 8 seconds. The car's average speed was 0.82 meters

the airplanes. “The first successful air flight was in a hot air balloon. In 1783, a few men invented the first flying machine by making the hot air balloon. A hot air balloon is a balloon filled with heated air. Since heated air is lighter than cool air, the balloon would rise into the sky. The pilot would ride in a basket attached to the balloon and control the height by adding and subtracting more heat.” (History of airplanes, (n.d.)) So the hot air balloon is the airplanes’ predecessor because

17.) Although a plane tries to overcome drag, it actually creates it.(Wright Brothers Int, 2001,) Anything that flies will create drag, the bigger the object the more the drag. To overcome drag, an airplane is designed to be able to cut through the air.(NASA, 2015, Pg 1.) The best example of this is in the wings. Wings on a plane tend to have a design that is thin and sharp in the front and gets thicker as it moves down. Planes also have a very sharp nose(very front tip of the plane) along with a

it out. They then taped two straws to the bottom of the box, and then hot glued two wood dowels in them. Then my owners hot glued barriers to stop the candles from moving to the side, but they could still spin. They then taped a balloon on the top. My wheels didn’t spin when I got tested, so they hot glued the straws to the foam piece, and un-glued the dowels from the straws. The dowels were loosely placed and the wheels were hot-glued onto the dowels. Then I got tested it again and the wheels spun

some experimental error. ) This is volume at 0 textbooks (tbs) of pressure. Add 2.4 tbs of pressure to account for the atmosphere and record your data. 3 – Add one textbook to the center of the small wood platform and record the new volume of the air that is occupying the cylinder. Record the pressure always adding 2.4 tbs to how many tbs used to account for the atmosphere. If necessary, gently hold the book in place. 4 – Repeat step 3 except now with 2 textbooks, and then 3 textbooks, and finally

1. What is the relationship between love and cholera in this chapter? a. At the beginning of the chapter, Fermina and Dr. Urbino are part of a group riding in a hot air balloon. The course of the trip flew them over the Trojas in Cataca, banana plantations, and the Great Swamp before they landed in San Juan de la Cienaga.
