Wind Energy

1/10/13 1 Wind Energy By Tatiana Cherne, Dean Koman, Peter Schott What is wind and how can it be captured? Wind - flows of air created by the difference in solar heating of the earth between the equator and the poles together with the earth's rotation *Blades of the turbine harness the wind to create rotational energy* *A generator then transforms the energy into electricity* 1/10/13 2 Potential Global - Capturing 1/5 of the wind energy at the best sites could generate more than 7X the amount of electricity currently used - Possible to phase out non-renewable energy by the end of the century (coal burning and nuclear) United States - Wind farms operate in 36 states generating 1% of the country?s electricity - Lead by Texas and California

Lauren Dutch Poem God has power and could have come, In a tornado, flood, or burning sun, But instead He chose to quietly appear, In a rugged stable on a night so dear. God has power and could have said, ?Prepare my son a luxurious bed!? But instead He chose to be born, In a wooden manger, early morn. God has power and could have told, King Herod not to be so bold, But instead He warned the father, Go to Egypt where there?s no bother. God has power and could have done, All these things before the rising sun, But He is kind, and He is giving, And wants us to show Him through our living.

Dear Papermate: I really like your original Inkjoy blue pens, and I use them to annotate all of my class notes. The reason I am sending this one back is because it is a black ink cartridge that somehow found its way into a blue pen?s plastic shell, and with three others that indeed write in blue. Your package said that I could send it back if at all dissatisfied, so I figured what?s to lose, apart from a misleadingly blue and white pen. Also, receiving things in the mail is great, so if you guys want to send something to make up for it, that would make my week (may I also mention here that I swoon at a good Fine point tip). Thanks for constantly pursuing the product that makes writing all the more enjoyable. Yours Sincerely, Kristen Beard
