Diaz Lake was created by the 1872 Lone Pine earthquake, one of the biggest in California. The lake and Lone Pine Fault are consequences of this earthquake. Manzanar relocation center, where over 10,000 Japanese Americans were held during WWII, was also in this area. The dead forest zone in Mammoth was formed by volcanic eruptions thousands of years ago. Paoha Island in Mono Lake is an active volcano. Tufas were formed in Mono Lake when hot and cold springs mixed with the lake water. Convict Lake was named after convicts who hid out there and were later caught and hanged.

Characteristics of africa work, live, travel
This document summarizes key characteristics of different regions in Africa and how they impact population distribution. It describes the Sahara desert where nomadic tribes travel between oases, the Sahel region along the Sahara's border where rainfall is unpredictable and people herd animals, and the savanna grasslands inhabited by wildlife and threatened by human activities. It also discusses the Congo rainforest that was cleared by Europeans but is now endangered primarily by growing human populations.

Special Seychelles Amphibians.Ppsx
There are twelve species of amphibians in Seychelles, 11 of which are endemic. The family Sooglossidae consists of four species of frogs that are only found in Seychelles. Sooglossus sechellensis and Nesomantis thomasseti are found on Mahe and Silhouette and are classified as vulnerable and endangered respectively by the IUCN Red List. There are also seven endemic species of caecilians in Seychelles that spend their time burrowing in soil and feeding on invertebrates.

The Thousand Islands are a chain of islands that straddle the U.S-Canada border in the Saint Lawrence River as it emerges from the northeast corner of Lake Ontario. The islands stretch for about 50 mi (80 km) downstream from Kingston, Ontario
Canadian islands are in the province of Ontario. The U.S. islands are in the state of New York.

The number of islands was determined using the criteria that any island must be above water level for 365 days per year, bigger than one square foot (roughly 900 cm²), and support at least one tree or shrub.
The area is very popular among vacationers, campers, and boaters, and is often referred to as the 'fresh water boating capital of the world.'

Put The Glass Down
The professor holds up a glass of water in class and asks students to guess its weight. When the students provide guesses, the professor notes that he doesn't actually know unless he weighs it. He then asks what would happen if he held the glass up for an hour or a day. The students note that his arm would begin to ache and could go numb. However, the professor notes that the weight of the glass did not change. He explains that life's problems are like the glass of water - they may seem manageable at first but can become overwhelming if dwelled upon for too long. The key is to "put the glass down" at the end of each day by not stressing over problems before sleep so you can

Dad 1
At different ages, a son or daughter's perspective of their father changes: as children, they view their father as all-knowing and great; as teenagers, they see their father as outdated and unreasonable; as adults, they gain appreciation for the hardships and discipline their father endured to raise them. The cycle continues as children become fathers themselves and better understand the challenges and wisdom of their own fathers.
Dubai
Dubai has undergone rapid development in the last 15 years, fueled by ambitious construction projects. Some of the largest projects underway or planned include massive artificial islands in the shapes of palm trees and the world map, hotels that will be among the tallest in the world like the Burj Al Arab and Burj Dubai, and Dubai Land which will be the largest theme park in the world twice the size of Disney World. Dubai aims to surpass other cities and become the top tourist destination worldwide through developments that include the world's largest shopping mall, indoor ski slope, and waterfront area.
Football
The document outlines different national soccer/football plans humorously. The English plan varies depending on wind. The German plan is radical, efficient and unstoppable. The Italian plan focuses on defense, midfield passes to strikers, and penalties. The Brazilian plan needs no comments. The Swiss plan loses on its own without help. The French plan tries all hypotheses but forgets the goal. The Turkish plan's red dot is the referee, not the ball. The Indian plan is to stay home and watch others on TV.
An Amazing Man
Warren Buffett, the world's second richest man who has donated $31 billion to charity, was interviewed for one hour on CNBC. Some interesting aspects of his life that were discussed include that he bought his first stock at age 11, still lives in the same modest house he purchased over 50 years ago, and drives himself instead of using a private jet or having a security detail. His advice for young people focuses on living simply, investing in yourself through education rather than loans, and doing what makes you happy rather than worrying about brand names or what others think.
Anger 1 1
A boy is given a bag of nails by his father and told to hammer one into the fence each time he loses his temper. Over time, as the boy learns to control himself, fewer nails are hammered into the fence. Eventually, the boy is able to remove all the nails, but his father notes that the fence is still damaged from the holes left behind. The document encourages controlling one's temper and healing damaged relationships through forgiveness and compassion.
Attitude Iceberg
Only 10% of an iceberg is visible above the sea level, while 90% remains below the surface, invisible. Similarly for humans, only a small portion of skills, knowledge, attitudes and behaviors are visible to others, while much remains unseen below the surface. Maintaining a positive attitude is essential for success and happiness in life, as it can help overcome limitations and attract positive outcomes.
Beautiful
The document shares three short lessons. The first is about showing kindness to everyone regardless of status. The second is about helping a woman who was helped in return. The third is about a boy who leaves a tip for an impatient waitress from his small amount of money. It encourages appreciating what you have and sharing kindness with others.
A Glassof Milk
A poor boy who was selling clothes to pay for his education was hungry and asked a woman for food. She gave him a large glass of milk instead of just water. Years later, when the woman became gravely ill, the doctor who was called in to help was the same boy, and he made sure to save her life without charging for his services, paying her bill with "a glass of milk." The story illustrates that acts of kindness can come back to help you when you least expect it.
