Hydroelectric Power

1) Assignment on hydroelectric power.

2) Like wind, moving water has been anenergy sourcefor centuries. Today, the powerthat falling water generates, known as hydroelectric power drives turbines that produce electricity.

3) The water held in a reservoir behind a dam is a form of stored energy that can be released through the dam to produce electric power.

4) In the United States, hydroelectric power plants produce about 5 percent of the country's electricity.

5) Although water power is a renewable resorce, hydroelectric dams have finite lifetimes. Eventually, the sediment fills the reservoir, the dam can no longer produce power.

6) There are hydroelectric dams in many parts of the United States, with the greatest concentration in the Southeast and the Pacific Northwest.

This limits future expansion of hydroelectric power.

About Me

I'm a single mother at age 13. I have a beautiful 8 month baby boy that had crawled just yesterday. Even though I am young I want to raise my baby the way I want without any body telling me what to do, but the truth is I still need help especially when my baby is hard to control. I love my teachers so much that I decided to stay in Lindsay until I graduate from 12Th grade. One reason why I love Lindsay is that my teachers really support me and teach me new things every day I go to school, they are the reason why I go to school. My baby is also the reason why I go to school to be a role model for him. I take my baby to school with me, but he stays in the nursery. I like the nursery because no other school takes care of babies and that's why I chose to come here from where I live it takes about 15 minutes to get here depending on traffic, but being here on time means a lot to my teachers so I have to get up early. I mean I don't want to be behind in class. I have a family of 10 including my dog. We live in a big house and I have lived there for 8 years. I love my home because when I was young I was very curious and when David, my baby grows up he will maybe do the same. When I found out I was pregnant I wanted to keep my baby even though I never thought I would be a mother. Now I don't regret having him because he is the one who I will always love, he means my life. I can't imagine my life with out him, I know my life completely changed, but I really don't regret it. I like how I live and of course, I do have thoughts of my past. I love my baby, my family, and my teachers and I don't want to to mess that up with something stupid. I noticed the older I got the more I knew and before I had David I didn't know much at all. Well now that school is over I got to go and next time I can write more about me.

The Kite Flyer

1.I enjoy the book better because it tells specificly what happens;the book tells the story and you can imagine what they look like or what is happening in your own mind.Also the book is more intresting than the movie,to me the part that was fasinating to me was when Amir saw Hassan get raped by Assef and he didn't help his own half brother.Amir saw a look on Hassan's he had seen before...the look of the lamb and I imagined how everything was happening.Chapter 7 page 76.
