swallowed by high waters after 5.91 inches fell in Louisville on Saturday alone, according to the Weather Channel. Flooding closed at least 45 roads. Authorities say more than 80 people were rescued or evacuated thanks to seven-inches of rainfall that fell in 36 hours. NBC's Kerry Sanders reports. "I was lying there sleeping, kids woke me up, looked out, I couldn't believe it," evacuee Vickie Dedrick told NBC affiliate WAVE in Louisville. "Just a little bit of water on the road, next

Photo writing assignment Pag. 32 Natural Disasters Natural disasters are something we cannot fight against or win, since a man is powerless against nature. Some people think that natural disasters are caused by human activity and environmental pollution. This is not only natures fault, is humans fault to because we don’t take care about or nature, the way of living in these days make the nature and the environment more and more unhealthy. Disasters are highly disruptive events that cause

De Ocampo, Yves Aaron Julian, Dela Vega, Roderick R. Jr., Elguira, Cedric Tristan D. Enriquez, Joanne B., Gabat, John Elliot Group 5, 2D Medical Technology, Faculty of Pharmacy, UST ABSTRACT Sublimation is a change directly from the solid to the gaseous state without becoming liquid. In this experiment, we used the process of sublimation to purify the impure benzoic acid. We obtained from 5.00 g to 2.30 g of the sublimate compound. After we purify the acid we collected the pure and sublimate

In this experiment, sublimation was used to purify solid mixtures. The compound used to undergo purification is impure benzoic acid. The product obtained after the heating process is called the sublimate in the form of crystals. The weight of the impure benzoic acid gave a lot of difference from the sublimate obtained from 5.0014 g to 0.3213 g, respectively. Thus, the measured sublimate showed the low percentage recovery of the said compound. The sublimate was then subjected to melting point determination

Programming Approach to Irrigation System Management with Depleting Groundwater The Southern High Plains area of the United States has little rain fall. Farmers in these areas such as Texas rely most on irrigation systems. The main source of their water comes from the Ogallala Aquifer. With little rain fall and no one refilling the aquifer, it poses a threat of running dry. Many theoretical models have been created to solve this problem but are not realistic. An applied model called the recursive

treated patients successfully and have found that as one ages the arteries and veins lose their flexibility and get clogged; honey and cinnamon revitalize the arteries and the veins. ARTHRITIS: Arthritis patients can benefit by taking one cup of hot water with two tablespoons of honey and one small teaspoon of cinnamon powder. When taken daily even chronic arthritis can be cured. In a recent research conducted at the Copenhagen University, it was found that when the doctors treated their patients with

Problem: To calculate the specific heat of Lead. C. Hypothesis: If the heat absorbed by water when lead is added is known then the specific heat of lead can be calculated. D. Theory: i. In this experiment it is assumed that the density of liquid water is 1.00 g/mL ii. The equation qlost = -qgained can be applied when the change in temperature of the water is calculated. The energy gained by the water is equal to the energy lost by the lead. iii. The equation q =m ×Cp ×∆T can be simplified
