Accident Up Ahead! Listen to this text being read aloud by a human being by clicking on this link. Answer questions #1 and #2 and then answer #3 or #4. 1. When an accident or disaster occurs, many people will panic or just stand there looking. Why do they react that way? (Answer using a short paragraph.) 2. What fears and doubts does Jody have to overcome as she works? What helps her to keep going? (Answer using two short paragraphs.) 3. Write a paragraph about an accident that you experienced as a victim, an observer, or the person who helped the victim. or 4. As one of the Fortins or Jodouins, write a letter to Jody Stevens thanking her for what she did. Accident Up Ahead! JANICE TYRWHITT THE NORTHBOUND BUS had scarcely left North Bay, Ontario, when-at 1:30 a.m. on Saturday, October 11, 1975-it came to an abrupt halt. Peering out the bus window at Highway 11, Jody Stevens saw a line of taillights stretching into the night. "There must be an accident up ahead," she said to her seatmate. "I had better get out and help." Jody, a young nurse from Toronto, was on her way home to spend Thanksgiving (and celebrate her twenty-fourth birthday) with her family in Timmins. An October drizzle soaked her shoulders as she trudged past a quarter mile of stopped traffic to an eerie scene. In the flickering light of Coleman lamps and road flares, she saw the two-lane highway spattered with blood. An old school bus converted into a camper lay on its side in the ditch. A hunter's pickup truck was stalled in the left lane, the bodies of two moose lolling grotesquely from the back. Off the right shoulder was a silver Mercedes-Benz with a smashed hood. In the lane between them a silent ring of people had gathered round a fourth vehicle-a blue 1973 Ford, a crumpled wreck, with four people in it. "I think they're all dead," a burly man told Jody. She caught her breath and thought, Well, Stevens, what do you do now? Jody had packed a lot of experience into the two years since her graduation as a registered nurse, most recently at the Toronto East General Hospital. She threw off her corduroy coat and crawled into the back seat of the crushed car. While Jody was riding north, twenty-six-year-old Charles Jodouin, his wife Jeanne, and her parents Omer and Lucie Fortin, were driving south from Timmins to visit Jeanne's sister in Kingston. Despite the late hour, traffic in both directions was fairly heavy. They were less than three miles out of North Bay when, suddenly, the left rear wheel spun off an oncoming converted school bus: it flew straight into the grill of a pickup truck moving south just ahead of the Jodouins. Then, out of control, the camperbus skidded across the centre line and sideswiped the Jodouins' blue Ford. A split second later a brand-new Mercedes, travelling behind the camper, also slammed into the Jodouins. Scrambling into the wrecked blue Ford, Jody found herself in a welter of blood and splintered glass. Trapped in the driver's se.

Abraham Lincoln is considered by many historians to be the greatest American President. His drive to end slavery and to unify the nation was at great personal cost. For this assignment, you will access two important primary sources authored by Abraham Lincoln. Using the Internet, review the following primary source document: [Lincoln, A.?]. [ca. 1863]. The Emancipation Proclamation . Archived document, U.S. National Archives & Records Administration. Retrieved from http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/featured_documents/ emancipation_proclamation/transcript.html In addition, research the Internet for The Gettysburg Address. The Webliography for this module contains a link to this resource. Based on your analysis of all the readings for this module, respond to the following: What is Lincoln’s perception of liberty and equality? Why did he place so much importance on the destruction of slavery and the continuation of one nation? What examples from both documents demonstrate both civil liberties and rights? Support your statements with appropriate scholarly references. Write your initial response in a minimum of 300 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. .

A.) Imagine that astronomers have discovered intelligent life in a nearby star system. Imagine you are part of a group submitting a proposal for who on Earth should speak for the planet and what 50-word message should be conveyed. Be sure to answer all three questions below, if you choose this option. (A) Who should speak for Earth and why? (B) What should this person say in 50 words? (C) Why is this message the most important compared to other things that could be said? Instructions: should be at least 200 words. B.) Observing Jupiter’s Moons Big Idea: Sky objects have properties, locations, and predictable patterns of movements that can be observed and described. Goal: Students will conduct a series of inquiries about the position and motion of Jupiter’s moons using prescribed Internet simulations. Computer Setup: Access http://space.jpl.nasa.gov/ and a) Select THE MOON in the “Show me _______ “ drop down menu b) Select THE SUN in the “as seen from _______ “ drop down menu c) Select the radio button “I want a field of view of ____ degrees” and set the drop down menu to 0.5 d) Select the check box for EXTRA BRIGHTNESS and then Select “Run Simulator” Phase I: Exploration 1) The resulting image shows what one would see looking through a special telescope. In this picture, where is the observer with the special telescope located? 2) How does the image change if you INCREASE the field of view? 3) What is the exact date of the image? 4) Astronomers typically mark images based on the time it currently is in Greenwich, England, called UTC. What is the precise time of the image? 5) Using a ruler to measure the distance on the screen between the middle of Earth and the middle of the Moon, what is the measured distance? You do NOT need to know the exact number of kilometers, but simply a ruler-measurement you can compare other measurements you make later. Alternately, you can use the edge of a blank piece of paper held in the landscape orientation and mark the positions of Earth and Moon or the Squidgit ruler found on the last page. 6) Use the browser’s BACK button to return to the Solar System Simulator homepage. Now, advance the time by 1 hour and determine the new distance between the Earth and Moon. 7) Use the browser’s BACK button to return to the Solar System Simulator homepage. Now, advance the time by one day from when you started and determine the new distance between the Earth and Moon. 8) Use the browser’s BACK button to return to the Solar System Simulator homepage. Now, advance the time by three days from when you started and determine the new distance between the Earth and Moon. 9) Use the browser’s BACK button to return to the Solar System Simulator homepage. Now, advance the time by five days from when you started and determine the new distance between the Earth and Moon. 10) Use the browser’s BACK button to return to the Solar System Simulator homepage.
