What Would You Do If You Were Indestructible For a Day?

If I was indestructible and couldn't feel pain for a whole 24 hours I would do things that I wouldn't do for fear of dying or getting hurt. Many of the things I would do are probably on my bucket list. I would go skydiving, on any other day I would fear that I would be seriously hurt or die if something went wrong. I would try rock climbing. I think rock climbing would be amazing, as long as I couldn't get hurt. I would also try bungee jumping. Bungee jumping scares me because I fear the rope would break but because I would be indestructible and have no need to worry about it. I would do just about anything that I normally wouldn't do if I could be hurt.

What Color Are You?

I think the colors that represent me are orange, carnation, and orchid. I think these colors represent me because like the color orange I am a firm believer in sticking with your family, through everything, being joyful, and be loyal to family and friends. The color carnation because I believe every person is original and I like being creative when making new ideas. Lastly the color of orchid. Orchid shows maturity, truth, and wisdom. I take advice from people with experience because they most often are very wise. Maturity, I believe, comes with age and with maturity comes truthfulness. I think I am a truthful person and show maturity when it is needed. I think I am patch of carnations and orchids with dashes of orange on the flowers because I think I am truthful, mature, and wise at times. I stick with my friends and family and take their side even if they are wrong, loyalty is important. On the other hand I also like to have fun and be unique and creative. What is your unique color mixture?

Everyone Is A Millionaire- At Least In Norway

While most governments are struggling to manage their funds, the Norwegians have enough money to make every citizen a millionaire. Well, paper ones at least. The Norwegians started saving money since 1990. They came into extra funds after finding oil in the North Sea, off the coast of Norway. Instead of going and blowing all the money they came into, they decided to save it for future generations.  This fund is called the Government Pension Fund- Global, made to secure the future of its citizens. Thanks to investments, the rise in oil prices, and the set limit on how much can be withdrawn from the account they now have a total of 5.22 trillion kroner or 828.66 billion U.S. dollars. Now all 5,096,300 citizens of Norway are millionaires, nut no one is pressing on getting their money. They are all trying to save the money for future generations. I believe my country hasn't set up one of these funds because we haven't thought about the future, just the present.

1. The government has accumulated over 17 trillion dollars in debt.
2. The astute planning of the school building makes it very safe.
3. The clamor of the crowd at the gate was enormous.
4. The dividend of the problem was smaller than the divisor.
5. Most Nordic people generally have blonde hair and blue eyes.

Insane Waterslide in Kansas City

The insane waterslide ride in Kansas City has been named Verruckt, meaning insane in German. Insane it is. This particular waterslide is as tall as a seventeen story building. That amounts to being taller than Niagara Falls or The Statue of Liberty. If you dare to take this treacherous ride you will have to start by climbing 264 stairs to the top. After you get there you will take a raft with three other people and free fall. The company hasn't said how fast you will be going but we do know it is faster than 65mph, faster than Brazil's Insano. After free falling 17-stories you will then be propelled over a five-story hill. The designer Jeff Henry, also known as the Water Wizard, has designed many other attractions like this one for the park. He says that the Verruckt is his best creation yet. Currently the waterslide is being thoroughly tested to make sure the ride is completely safe. I don't want to go try this ride because I am scared of heights but for all you people that aren't. Go give it a try.

Micro Windmills

 

 

Horizontal axis wind turbine, also known as micro windmills, have recently became known to the public. These tiny windmills are only about 2mm tall, meaning it can fit almost anywhere you want, but can generate enough power to send a text message. The creators, Jung-Chih Chiao and Smitha Roa, created this tiny device while thinking of a way to power night lights or sensors without buying a giant turbine. While they succeeded in making the prototype they are also trying to make them cost friendly. The size of the micro windmill helps with costs when producing them. The tiny windmills are made from nickel alloy, making them quite durable. Perhaps sometime in the future you could have one of these in your home helping you use less electricity.
