Hurricanes and tornados are both amazing yet deadly natural phenomena. Both generate deadly conditions, but in different ways. Tornados are likely to damage people and property with their high winds, which go up to 300 miles per hour, but hurricanes are generally more feared for their

flooding. Also, hurricanes can produce tornados, which makes them quite dangerous indeed.

No one knows exactly what causes tornados, but some scientists believe that when warm air meets cold air, a tornado may form. The reason for this is that the warm air is lighter than the cold air, so it rises up fast and meets different winds moving different directions. Under the right

conditions, this can cause a tornado. Though there is still much mystery surrounding tornados, many people believe that when warm moist air meets cool dry air, tornados can result.

The twist is a dance inspired by rock and roll music. To do the Twist, first stand with your feet approximately shoulder width apart. The torso may be squared to the knees and hips, or turned at an angle so one foot is farther forward than the other. Then, hold your arms out from your

body, bent at your elbow. Next, rotate your hips, torso, and legs as a single unit with your arms staying more or less stationary. Every so often lift one leg off of the floor for styling. Now you’re doing the twist!

The depression later strengthened into a tropical storm on the morning of August 24 where the storm was also

named Katrina. Katrina continued to move into Florida, and became a Category 1 hurricane only two hours

before it made landfall around Hallandale Beach on the morning of August 25. The storm weakened over land,

Have you ever wondered what the inside of a volcano looks like? Deep underground is a magma chamber. The magma chamber is under the bedrock of the earth’s crust. The conduit or pipe runs from the magma chamber to the top of the volcano. The conduit connects the magma chamber to the surface. Most volcanoes also have a crater at the top. Volcanoes are quite a sight, and you can enjoy this site all

over the universe. Volcanoes are found on planets other than Earth, like the Olympus Mons on Mars.

Lightning and thunder are related events. Lightning is a sudden, violent flash of electricity that

occurs between a cloud and the ground or between two clouds in the sky. A lightning bolt can be several

miles long and can be straight or forked. It is very hot, with an average temperature of 34 000 degrees

Celsius. This causes the air around the electric bolt to expand, producing lots of sound energy. It is this

sound energy that we hear as thunder. So, lightning and thunder are caused by the same event, but

lightning is light energy, or electromagnetic energy, whereas thunder is sound energy. Thus, we see

lightning and hear thunder.

Education in our society serves many purposes, but there are three main functions. First, students learn skills that will help prepare them for society. Writing, reading, and

mathematics are essential in today’s workplace and many people learn these skills in school. Second, schools serve communities. Whether by functioning as polling locations

during elections, or providing safe havens for students in temporary living situations, public schools add value to communities. Third, public schools provide a structured

environment for children to engage in productive activities during many days of the year while their adult caretakers may be working. In other words, public schools also

provide day care. These are three of the primary reasons why we have schools in our society.

In 1821 the first public high school in the United States was started in Boston. By 1900, 31 states required children to attend school from the ages of 8 to 14. As a result, by

1910 72 percent of American children attended school. Half the nation's children attended one-room schools. In 1918, every state required students to complete elementary

school. In 1954, the Supreme Court in Brown v. Board of Education unanimously declared that separate facilities were unconstitutional and desegregation began.

Cooking the perfect pizza at home can be quite a challenge. You may find that it’s difficult to get

your oven to the right temperature. If the oven is too hot the crust will burn, become hard, and taste bad.

If your oven isn’t hot enough, the crust may get soggy. Even at the perfect temperature, extra moisture

from your ingredients may prevent the bottom of the crust from fully cooking, but don’t let oven

temperature stop you from building the pizza of your dreams. Get yourself a pizza stone. A pizza stone

will get very hot when preheated and will allow your crust to fully cook without burning it. Then you

can pile the ingredients on your pizza and have a crispy crust that isn’t burned. That’s the way to go.
