The Wolverine
.... with large claws and with pads on its
feet that allow it to chase down prey in deep snow. Some prey species include
reindeer, roe deer, wild sheep, and elk. The wolverine can be very swift when it
is on the attack, reaching speeds of over thirty miles an hour.It also uses it’s
claws to protect itself.
In total I can truly say that the wolverine is one mean guy and he can
kick some major butt. So if you see one remember to stay away or be
brave(stupid) and confront it.

Extinct Animals Research: Woolly Mammoth
.... much like today's camels, keeps under its sloping back a thick
layer of blubber as nutrition when food was not needed.
The problem in keeping a creature such as the Woolly Mammoth in a zoo-
like surrounding would be poachers. Due to the endangerment of such a
magnificent species, poachers of pelts and ivory would most certainly be after
it's huge tusks and thick furs, so it would be necessary to post guards around
it's cage at all times.
A large-scale habitat would be constructed for this creature si .....

About All Sharks
.... are characterized by their slender, cylinder-shaped bodies, long
snouts with shortened mouths.
HEXANCHIFORMES: The Hexanchiformes or cow sharks, comprise of two families.
Recognized by their six or seven pairs of gill slits, there sharks can often
be found in deep water. The frilled shark (CHLAMYDISELACHUS ANGUINEUS)
who's appearance is quite unmistakable due to it's "eel" like appearance, is
perhaps one the strangest shark that exist today.
FOSSIL RECORD: Shark fossil record is fargmentery at best. Mo .....

Do UFOs Exist?
.... buried memories of alien encounters. There has never been physical
proof of any abduction yet to be provided.
The Roswell incident is now generally regarded as one of the most
important UFO events in history, an extensive review of the UFO literature of
the 1950s finds no mention of it beyond the first press accounts in early July
1947. The only know reference to it as a UFO crash was in a 1955 lecture by
broadcaster and UFO enthusiast Frank Edward. Even in the 1960s the UFO
literature menti .....

Mellville And Darwin's Writings On The Galapagos Islands
.... unfamiliar with the Galapagos islands, or
"Encantadas," as he chooses to refer to them as and paints a picture of the
Galapagos Islands using everyday terms. An important part of Mellville's style
is that the he never directly describes the islands. "Take five-and-twenty heaps
of cinders dumped here and there in an outside city lot" is how Mellville's
description of the Galapagos Islands begins. This reduces the Galapagos islands
from a large, nearly inconceivable place to objects of which most any rea .....

The Problem Of Global Warming
.... for more of the
carbon to be exposed into the atmosphere.
Another factor that most people would not consider in the raising of
global warming is the excrement of cows. Cows produces tons of carbon that does
not all get treated for, and is in the top five for highest amounts of carbon
produced per year. This is another factor that somehow has to be dealt with.
All of these causes of global warming have been know by scientists, it's
the effects we are seeing in today's climate now they had no idea of. .....

The Atomic Bomb
.... would be released by a fast neutron chain reaction
in one or more of the materials known to show nuclear fission. That goal was to
be completed in 1945 after the U.S.A. spent over 6.7 Billion Dollars on the test
bomb named the "Trinity". I t was dropped on Alagormado in Texas on July 16th
1945.
When Albert Einstein heard about the "Trinity" he called the president directly
and asked for a halt on all atomic bomb projects for he did not want to hurt
anyone with his discovery. But when spies reported t .....

UFO's
.... forever. Just north of his position flying at an altitude of
9,500 feet and an unprecedented airspeed of 1,700 mph he spotted nine
circular aircraft flying in formation. According to his estimate the aircraft
were approximately the size of a DC-4 airliner ( Jackson 4).
This account was the first sighting to ever receive a great deal of
media attention. This sighting gave birth to the phrase "flying Saucer" coined
by a reporter named Bill Begrette. Although not the first UFO sighting in
histo .....

The Creation Of The Universe
.... knowledge that lies deep within ourselves. As
for myself, I cannot believe in a being which created a universe and a multitude
of worlds in a rather short period of time then deigns to lower itself into
becoming a puppet-master and "pulling the strings" of the Earth and all of the
people therein.
Since this paper touches upon many scientific terms, I feel that in
order for the reader to correctly grasp the content I must first define three
words: Theory, Law, and Hypothesis. The definitions wi .....

Dangers And Destructions Of Floods And Hurricanes
.... hurricane rains. Coastal flooding can not only take
part on oceans but it can also take part on lakes. Coastal flooding can be a
great danger because coast lines are very densely populated areas. In the United
States in the early 1990's 50% of the population was on a coastal county.1
Although they shrink before reaching shore, wind generated waves have been
spotted to be as high as 30 m (100 ft) in the middle of the ocean.2 In 1970 a
major storm in the Bay of Bengal produced heavy seas that flooded regions .....

Chemistry

intense heat. I am fed and drunk by those who go through hunger. As acid
contained in the human body, I digest food and clean out wastes. I am a
desperate hope for a cure, yet poison, slowly spreading in the air and along the
land. I am the colorful fireworks "sprocketed" across the dark sky when the
touch of two soft lips are gently pressed together. I am the warm tears
trickling slowly down a child's face when the thought of going to school all
alone crosses hi .....

"How Is Helium Produced?"
.... producer. In 1960,
Congress amended the Helium Act to provide incentives to natural gas producers
for stripping natural gas of its helium, for purchase of the separated helium by
the government, and for its long-term storage. With over 960 million cubic
meters (34.6 billion cubic feet) of helium in government storage and a large
private helium recovery industry, questions arise as to the need for either the
federal helium extraction program or the federally maintained helium stockpile.

Acetylation Of Ferrocene
.... IR spectra analysis in order to determine the what proportions of
each of these compounds will be present in the final product.
Both TLC and CG are excellent methods of measuring the presence of a
given substance. Both methods turn around a compounds polarity. As one recalls,
polarity is a measure of the electronegativity of a compound determined by their
placement in the periodic chart. Specifically, in this lab we are talking about
the difference in polarity between the atoms of oxygen and carbon .....

reddish pink was result in basic solutions. Strong acid (contained H+ ion) and
strong base ( contained OH ) were 100% ionized in water and they were all
strong electrolytes. Procedure:
Part A. Investigating solid NaOH for use as a possible primary standard First of

added two pellets of NaOH and reweighed the total amount of those. At .....

Acid Base Extraction
.... mixture of equal parts of a neutral substance containing either
naphthalene or benzoin and a basic substance containing either 4-chloroaniline
or ethyl 4-aminobenzoate were to be separated by extraction from an ether
solution. Once the separation took place, and crystallization was carried out,
it became possible to determine what components were in the unknown mixture, by
means of a melting point determination.
