Do you have a love for sports? Well I love sports and my job won’t even feel like work because of how much i 'm around sports. This career I have chose is to be a coach.I have took career cluster surveys and my top career cluster is Education and training. As a coach I will get to teach ametuer up to professional athletes skills to improve them in their sport. I will also get to instruct my team during games and lead them to wins. I will enjoy knowing that I shaped my team into better men. More than

Coach Steve Rocker is one of the most successful high school basketball coaches in Kentucky’s history. Coach Rocker was very successful in previous years. Strangely, this year was very different for him. For the first time in his professional life, he is falling short of his expectations, the community expectations, and the team’s expectations. His team lost a lot of games, but most importantly the boys had no motivation or desire to bring the team out of the rut they found themselves. His players

Practice is a very up tempo time for this team as Coach Morris likes to run a high tempo offense, so practice was just that. No body not even the managers could walk during practice. Another responsibility we had as an equipment staff was setting up the locker room before games. We would have to arrive at the facility five hours before kickoff to start this process. We would put out the players game loops, which contained their game day clothes. We would put out there pants and put their jerseys

processes affect regional climate (Hagemann and Stacke, 2014). Soil moisture distribution impacts hydrologic processes including runoff generation and groundwater recharge in a catchment, in addition to biological processes and nutrient cycling (Williams et al., 2008). In regions where snowmelt runoff contributes to soil moisture and streamflow, understanding the factors

wide distribution of snow and ice across mountains and plateaus (Xiao et al., 2002) and are characterized by rapid seasonal changes, which plays an important role in the regional climate and any available water resources (Goodison et al., 1999). The fourth assessment report published by the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC 4AR) found that global warming is unequivocal, and has been confirmed by a rise in average air and ocean temperatures, the widespread melting of snow and ice, and a rise

RADARSAT-1 was a satellite launched by the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) in 1995 that incorporated a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) sensor operating in the C-band (frequency of 5.3 GHz). RADARSAT-1 stopped transmitting because of a technical problem in March 2013. The RADARSAT-1 images were ordered from the Alaska Satellite Facility website (www.asf.alaska.edu). The RADARSAT satellite was designed with seven SAR imaging beam modes. Each beam mode offers a different areal coverage (from ~50 km x 50

been around for forty years. Snow guns are the “insurance policy” for world wide ski resorts when Mother Nature is not producing natural snow. Without snowmaking, North American ski resorts could only have a seventy day operating season, not enough to make a profit. With new snowmaking technology, some ski areas in United States are open from Halloween to Independance Day. The science of man made snow is modern and many winter recreation sites do not depend on natural snow to operate. Snowmaking is

The changing nature of snow cover as a result of alpine climate change is a modern phenomenon that climate scientists are beginning to understand. Declining snow depth and duration have serious implications for Australia’s ski industry, in particular the longevity of the industry. This essay discusses the impacts of alpine climate change on snow cover, adaption strategies to sustain the industry’s economy as well as the unsustainable nature of snowmaking as a long term solution. Limitations on water

no heat? Imagine what it would be like to experience a blizzard, in winds whipping snow around at 35 mph or higher! It’s not about how much snow there is to determine a blizzard, it’s about how strong the winds are and the amount of time it lasts,” explains TV weather forecaster, Al Roker. “Usually blizzards are 3 or more hours and they can be harsh and deadly. Just to think about powerful, strong, frigid air and snow swirling around me is scary in a way.” Remember that terrifying winter night, winds

of my life. What I Knew “I was scared, and not knowing what I would’ve done if I ever were to get caught in one was even scarier.” It was a cold December morning in 2013. It was around 5:00 am and all through the night it dumped a great amount of snow in the mountains. I had been watching the forecast for a few days, and I knew that this Saturday was going to be one for the books. I had been waiting ever since I was a little kid to go snowmobiling with my dad and his friends. I had raced dirt bikes
