Hey. I'm guessing you're not going to get this message until I leave. But that's ok. I want to tell you that I love you. I miss you already, even though I'm still texting you. I guess I'll talk to you the next time I can. It's going to be so weird without you. Even though I'm going to be on a huge boat, and that's weird enough already. Um, every time I see a couple, I'm going to think of you, especially if they're obviously in love. It's going to be weird, as I said. Don't think I've forgotten about you if I don't answer your schoolloop messages right away either, you're an amazing unforgettable person. Oh, and I forgot my password to my wikipedia account, so if there's a weird IP address on your talk page that's probably me. So, I'm not really sure what to say next. I love you more than anyone else I can think of at the moment and probably everyone else that I can't think of. I'm going to miss you so much, and I can't wait until we're finally together again. Try to enjoy yourself at school while I'm gone. And please don't be depressed. I'll be thinking about you. You're the love of my life. Um I guess this is goodbye. I'll send you a schoolloop message when I can. Goodbye. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.4.8.127 (talk) 07:30, 18 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

ICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Until recently, it was widely believed that ice was slippery because the pressure of an object in contact with it caused a thin layer to melt. For example, the blade of an ice skate, exerting pressure on the ice, melted a thin layer, providing lubrication between the ice and the blade.

This explanation is no longer widely accepted. There is still debate about why ice is slippery. The explanation gaining acceptance is that ice molecules in contact with air cannot properly bond with the molecules of the mass of ice beneath (and thus are free to move like molecules of liquid water). These molecules remain in a semiliquid state, providing lubrication regardless of pressure against the ice exerted by any object. [3]

This phenomenon does not seem to hold true at all temperatures. The extreme conditions found, especially, in Antarctica have been observed to make ice and snow not slippery. Explorers report that at very low temperatures snow loses its "glide", and pulling a sledge across it becomes like pulling a sledge through sand


Pagophagia, a type of pica eating disorder, is the compulsive consumption of ice. Bubbles185 (talk) 23:28, 5 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Charles Edward (1884–1954) was at various times a British prince, the last ruling duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha in Germany, and a Nazi politician. Brought up in the United Kingdom, he was selected to succeed to the throne of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha in 1899 because he was deemed young enough to be re-educated as a German. He married Princess Victoria Adelaide of Schleswig-Holstein and the couple had five children. Charles Edward was a conservative ruler with an interest in art and technology. During the First World War, he supported the German Empire but was deposed during the German Revolution. During the 1920s, Charles Edward became a moral and financial supporter of violent far-right paramilitary groups, joining the Nazi Party in 1933. He was given multiple positions, including leader of the German Red Cross, and acted as an unofficial diplomat. After the war, he was interned for a period and given a minor conviction by a denazification court, dying of cancer in 1954. (Full article...)

Sedum acre, commonly known as the biting stonecrop, is a perennial flowering plant in the family Crassulaceae. It is native to Europe, North Africa and parts of Asia, and is naturalised in other places such as North America and New Zealand. It is a low-growing plant which is adapted for growth on thin dry soils, being found on terrain including dry grassland, beaches, drystone walls and roadside verges. The plant forms mat-like stands up to 12 centimetres (5 inches) tall. For most of the year the stems are short with dense leaf coverage, but during the flowering season in June and July, the stems lengthen and become erect. This S. acre plant with a length of 3.5 centimetres (1.4 inches) was photographed in Niitvälja, Estonia.
