Mountain Biking
I have come to love bicycles in the course of the past year. I am especially fond of mountain bikes, including my own. Riding it opens up a whole new world of opportunities and challenges for me. I am still fairly fresh to the whole mountain biking scene, so I push myself to become better with more experience. Riding is an outlet; it is something I can channel pent up energy through. I love the sport because it is a full body, soul, and mind experience that affects all five of the senses.
I see the bike. I notice its worn, but once clean and pristine frame that beckons me to ride. Its sharp, bright colors are like a simple painting, only on aluminum, not canvas. Its aggressive look tells me that I can ride with authority and do what I want on the bike. It inspires more confidence in my head than I will actually have on the trail. I walk over touch the bike. I place my hands on the handlebars and feel the soft and sticky texture of the grips. I push down on the handlebars a few times to remember the plush shock in front that is like a little angel o...
The Battle of Yorktown was a major battle with a huge turning point in the American Revolution. After many years of war between America and Great Britain they were defeated on October of 1781 at Yorktown,Virginia. On October 19 ,1781 General George Washington with the help of french allied General Jean-Baptiste Donatien de Vimeur, Comte de Rochambeau defeated General Lord Cornwallis and his British military. The battle of Yorktown ended the American Revolution and gave American its victory. The battle of Yorktown is considered one of the most important and remarkable battles fought in the American Revolution it did not just give americas its independence but it created a better ideological views.
The Battle of Princeton took place on January 3, 1777 at Princeton in New Jersey ("A Five Point Summary of the Battle of Princeton"). It had been a revengeful plan of the British in contradiction of the Continental Army. General Lord Cornwallis had a plan of retaliation to General George Washington after General Washington’s surprise attack of the Hessians at Trenton. There had only been 5,000 Americans that would be facing 8,000 of the British and Hessians (Mackenzie). Although, there had only been around...
Roping is a sport that most believe simply to be timing and performance of the cowboy and the cattle. However, roping is actually much, much, more. One quality that is necessary for a roper to be successful is momentum. Momentum is the quantity of motion of a moving body, measured of a product of its mass and its velocity (Jones). This concept of momentum can determine what results are obtained by the roper. For example, when a cowboy rides a horse and the horse accelerates, the mass of cowboy and horse together gain momentum. In contrast to that the cattle that leave the shoot and accelerate to escape the rope also gains momentum. The amounts of momentum determine how far each can run in the arena before the rope makes contact with the animal. Another concept that relies on momentum is the rope itself. The cowboy is required to swing the rope with enough momentum to make the loop stand out a sufficient amount so that it is extended and open enough to secure around the animals head or heels.
The thing that brings me the greatest joy is physical activity. I love outdoor sports and working out in the gym. During my school years I actively took part in football and basketball competitions, and then with the growing awareness about fitness and general health turned towards the gym. Working out in the gym proves to be a stress buster for me, provides me with increased energy levels and gives me enhanced confidence. This helps me to focus more clearly and bring situational awareness to all my endeavors. My quest to keep testing my limits gives me the confidence to handle new challenges and strive for excellence in all my goals. Exercise and other physical activities keep me calm and make me feel at
...’s preference. There is too much that goes on between the rider and the bike, there has to be a relationship, a strong connection between them. It is almost like having a girlfriend you want to connect with her to accomplish you goals and to get there you will have to fix what is wrong. I know supercross is not in the Olympics because it involves a motor but not because of that can’t be consider as a sport. I believe that any activity that raise you cardiovascular activity and involves any type of competition should be considered as a sport.

Bicycling was an exciting experience for two reasons. First, it has allowed me to travel around the city. Second, it gives me a chance to hang out with my friends. I love bicycling, I think it is fabulous! I can now observe my city, the people that lived there, the architecture, and the trees and animals, etc. Sometimes in our life, we just need to slow down our pace. We're so used to rushing through life that we don't even know what we have missed, but It's hard to blame ourselves because we're busy about our jobs especially when we were living in the city. I was once like that; I head right straight to school when it's time for school. As I walk I would only stare at my watch instead if looking to my left and/ or right.

Rowing, the thrilling team sport that gets you physically/mentally fit and provides you a second family with many friends. In the sport of crew, teamwork is very crucial. With that teamwork comes new friends and wonderful coaches. Even though you might think this is a physical sport it is also considered to be a mental sport. Just think, baseball has nine innings, approximately two hours of play and a lot can change in that period of time for a loss or win. With crew you only have about seven minutes to get your eight man boat down a two thousand-meter racecourse to receive a medal or win. If you have the lead it is mentally hard to come back and win for the rowers behind the top three boats.
Quantum mechanics was pioneered by Max Planck, who developed the formula E = hv—which is the base for much of the quantum mechanical field. Quantum theory (the origin of quantum mechanics), as described in Talking Tech, was, at its early core, a handful of theories and hypotheses regarding energy quantization and wave-particle duality (Rheingold and Levine). The book goes on to explain how this realm of science is basically an extension of physics attempting to derive a mathematical specification of how the entirety of the universe operates and behaves at the subatomic level. Conversely, it also describes how quantum theory also diverges from classical physics in that it stipulates that the only...
Throughout different experiments, scientists have discovered that light behaves as both a wave and a particle in different circumstances. The only way that all of the properties of light can be explained is through the idea of a wave-particle duality.
Flying through the air, spinning and flipping in any possible direction, knowing that at any moment, one false move could cause serious damage or death to the rider, these few reasons show why our culture has grown to love Bicycle Motocross or (BMX) and the thrill it brings to rider and spectator alike.

Sir Isaac Newton held the theory that light was made up of tiny particles. Before, most theories of light had an unexplainable phenomenon. Einstein had suggested that tiny particles which have energy, called protons, formes into light. This suggestion was made when he proposed a solution to the problems of observations discovered on the actions of light having the characteristics of both wave and particle theory.
