![]() This story was reported from Oakland, Calif. "People who ordinarily would not come into contact with each other and bringing all of the baggage, all of the starting assumptions, all of the emotional challenges, whatever bad day they are having, but also all of the personalities that would not otherwise mix," Leff said.Īfter the plane was met by police after it landed in Phoenix, according to the woman's husband.Īuthorities took statements from all involved and referred the matter to the FBI because the incident occurred over the Gulf of Mexico, which is international airspace. Leff said tightly-packed planes are unique environments. JUST IN: The woman who punched a Southwest Airlines flight attendant in May has been officially charged in federal court with two felonies, including assault. It has never that, I can think of, been the case that a setback has been used to assault another passenger." "We have heard of lots of assaults whether it is passengers against each other or passengers against crew. Gary Leff, author of a travel blog called "View From the Wing," said the incident that occurred on Southwest flight 1630 was quite rare. Southwest Airlines maintains zero-tolerance for any type of alleged harassment or assault on our Customers or Employees." In a statement to KTVU, the airline said, "After being made aware of a situation on a Southwest flight on Saturday, the Crew requested law enforcement meet the aircraft upon arrival. He kept pushing his seat back in an attempt to hurt Saarah," he said in a tweet. In a letter filed with the court, the Vice President of Inflight Operations for Southwest Airlines stated that Quinonez created a situation onboard Flight 700 that jeopardized the entire flight and created an unsafe environment. "Throughout the rest of the flight, this man kept spewing racial slurs and misogynistic venom at Saarah. Arielle Jean Jackson, 32, is charged with assaulting an operations agent after boarding a Southwest Airlines flight in Dallas, Nov. Due to the assault, the flight attendant was not able to perform her normal safety and customer service duties. He said it was only after one of Saarah's seatmates told a flight attendant that an assault had occurred did they offer to call police.Įven then, Sareshwala wrote that the passenger continued to antagonize his wife for the duration of the flight. Sareshwala wrote that flight attendants did very little to interfere in the matter, only offering to change Saarah's seat and not once confronting the alleged perpetrator. Sareshwala said the man allegedly told the duo to "f-k off" and that "the f-g bitch got what was coming for her." Sareshwala also alleges that the man told a woman sitting next to him that he would continue with his behavior in an attempt to spill Saarah's drink. While in the restroom, Saarah's seatmates, a mother and daughter, tried to confront the man. Nevertheless, she went to the bathroom to check if she had any injuries. Sareshwala said his wife initially thought it was an accident or that she had bumped the man's chair while sleeping. ![]() ![]() "This man violently pushed his seat back in an attempt to hurt while her head was there," Faraaz Sareshwala said on Twitter. ![]() ![]() So if we can work out the speed that the edge of the wheel is moving we will know the linear speed of the bike.Īs speed is $\frac$ in linear mechanics. Episode 225: Quantitative circular motion T distancevelocity T 2 rv T 2 v r × Angular velocity of stone at any point on the circle 3 m s. It is clear that the faster the wheels are moving in a circle, the faster the bike travels in a straight line. This is how a lot of bicycle computers work. The equations are shown below: Linear/Planar equation. The only difference is that we substitute in the angular analog of the corresponding quantities. ![]() ![]() Various planetary models described the motion of planets in circles before any understanding of gravitation. For rotational motion, the same equation apply. If we try to work out the speed of the bike we have a two options, using an external reference such as a known distance or GPS satellites, or we could look at the speed that the wheels are rotations. There are many instances of central motion about a point a bicycle rider on a circular track, a ball spun around by a string, and the rotation of a spinning wheel are just a few examples. Circular motion crops up in many different situations, and students will need to be able to apply the equations for centripetal force and acceleration. The pedals and the wheels are moving in circles, and this is causing the bike to move in a straight line. Students should be familiar with the equations of linear motion, and Newtons laws of motion. ![]() Figure 1: Circular motion is everywhere, and bikes are a very good example of this. Looking at the animation of the bicycle below you can see that there is a clear link between linear and circular motion. At the beginning of this topic it is important to understand and define a few key ideas and to link them to the linear motion that you have already studied. ![]() ![]() ![]() Unlike other Solitaire games, it is not possible to move individual cards into the Foundations. The goal of Spider Solitaire is to transfer all the cards, including those in the Stock Pile, into the Foundations. ![]() The tableau arrangement in a game of Spider Solitaire is always the same, regardless of the difficulty level you choose. There are 8 Foundations and there are normally placed on the right side of the tableau, above the piles. The Foundations start as empty spaces set aside to build the needed sequences to win the game. The Stock Pile contains all the cards that were not dealt into the piles. All the cards are facing down, except for the upper one in each pile which is facing forward and visible to the player. Starting from left to right, the first 4 piles contain 6 cards, while the others only have 5 each. In a game of Spider Solitaire, the tableau is divided into 3 main areas: the Stock Pile, the Foundations, and the Piles (also known as Columns). The basic rules are the same regardless of the number of suits you choose. The more suits you choose to play with, the more difficult the game becomes. You can play this Spider Solitaire game using 1, 2, or 4 suits at the same time. Since then, it has become a favorite among Solitaire games, even challenging the prominent Solitaire Klondike for the top spot. ![]() The game gets its name precisely from these 8 foundations as they resemble the 8 legs of a spider.Īlthough the first Spider Solitaire game dates back to 1947, it was only after its inclusion in the Microsoft computer software in 1998 that the game met its boom in popularity. Regardless, the goal is always to build 8 foundations by suit and in ascending order (from ace to king). The number of suits and decks may vary depending on the difficulty of the game. In its traditional and most common version, it uses two standard decks of 52 cards and 2 suits. As with the other games in this category, it is designed for a single player (thus the Solitaire designation), although it can also be adapted to include other players. Spider Solitaire is a game that belongs to the larger category of Solitaire card games. ![]() ![]() ![]() A chemical reaction near the negative terminal of a battery releases an excess number of electrons in the vicinity (in the attached wire). In a circuit, charges move because they are repelled from like charges and attracted to unlike charges. ![]() If I do the experiment with a charged balloon, I can use my hand to push the charged object towards another. In this general definition of of electric potential you can imagine any external force you want pushing the charge. (If it accelerates then all sorts of new physics starts to happen involving magnetism, which at the moment is way over our heads.) For now we make our charges sit still (static) or we move them super slow where they move but they don't accelerate, a condition called "pseudo-static". It is important not to push too long or too hard because we don't want the charged particle to accelerate. If you want to actually move a charge, you have to apply an ever-so-slightly greater force to the charge to get it to start moving. In almost all circuits, the second point is provided and this absolute idea isn't needed. It's the same voltage as usual, but with the assumption that the starting point is infinity away. ![]() A common choice that lots of engineers and scientists make is "A is infinity away from the charged object." When we make that choice, we say we are determining the absolute potential energy, or the absolute voltage. If I don't give it to you, you have to make one up. What if I told you where B was but did not mention A? I might say it this way: "What is the potential energy of a test charge when you place it at B"? Well, you need an A to answer that question. There are just a few oddball situations that give us some trouble. To use this equation you have to put in two locations, A and B. For example, you could be moving your test charge towards or away from some charged object. That equation tells you how electric potential energy changes when you move a test charge from point A to point B. Go back to the equation for Electric Potential Energy Difference (AB) in the middle of the section on Electric Potential Energy. Electric potential energy difference A B = ∫ r A r B − q E ⃗ ⋅ d r = q Q 4 π ϵ 0 ( 1 r B − 1 r A ) \displaystyle \text \right ) electric potential energy difference A B = ( 4 π ϵ 0 q Q r B 1 ) − ( 4 π ϵ 0 q Q r A 1 ) start text, e, l, e, c, t, r, i, c, space, p, o, t, e, n, t, i, a, l, space, e, n, e, r, g, y, space, d, i, f, f, e, r, e, n, c, e, end text, start subscript, A, B, end subscript, equals, left parenthesis, start fraction, q, Q, divided by, 4, pi, \epsilon, start subscript, 0, end subscript, end fraction, start fraction, 1, divided by, r, start subscript, B, end subscript, end fraction, right parenthesis, minus, left parenthesis, start fraction, q, Q, divided by, 4, pi, \epsilon, start subscript, 0, end subscript, end fraction, start fraction, 1, divided by, r, start subscript, A, end subscript, end fraction, right parenthesis ![]() ![]() ![]() After a battle, the legend suggests that Freya would ride her chariot to the battleground to gather the souls of fallen warriors. Freya is said to ride on a chariot pulled by cats. The ancient Norse legend tells of Freya, the goddess of death and magic. ![]() Irish lore tells us that dogs hear the sounds of spirit hounds that accompany spectres as they fly across the sky, searching for the souls of the dying.When a dog howled at night, it was felt that it was calling a soul to the gods. Ancient Egyptian and Greek gods of the dead Anubis and Cerebus, were represented with the head of a dog.In ancient times, dogs held the holy role of psychopomps – beings that escorted souls of the dead to the afterlife.Several legends tell of dogs’ roles in detecting and helping souls of the dead: Ancient Lore: Evidence That Dogs Are Ghost Detectors Perhaps most importantly, pet parents around the world have personal experience and believe their dogs have a connection to the spirit world. More recently, some branches of science are paying attention to these historical accounts and are exploring the biology behind ghost detection. Numerous legends and lore tell stories about dogs helping dying souls into the afterlife. Have an underlying medical issue like dementia Dogs Can Sense Spirits: The EvidenceĮvidence that dogs can sense spirits is found in historical accounts, scientific studies and personal experience.Be discomforted by electromagnetic frequencies or low frequency infra-sounds.Sense light changes or movement in their peripheral vision.There may be other reasons a dog is acting strangely. Unless we communicate directly with the animal, we can’t simply conclude they are seeing ghosts. We’re sure our Rottie came back to play with her, so we left his toy just where she dropped it. After that, she was able to sleep at night again and resumed her normal behavior. One night she grabbed our Rottweiler’s favorite toy and dropped it off near the fence. She would run back and forth along the fence and appeared to be playing. If your dog suddenly displays any of these behaviors – especially following the death of a person or animal in the household – there is a real chance your dog may be sensing their spirit.Īfter our Rottweiler died, our little terrier developed insomnia and demanded to be outside at night. stare or bark at a particular spot for no apparent reason.track something unseen with their eyes (look around a room).raise their hackles (hair stands on end).become restless or agitated in certain areas areas of the home (or times of the day or night).wander around or demand to go outside at night.Signs That Your Dog May Be Sensing Spirits When dogs sense spirits, they often react with some unusual behaviors. It may be more accurate to say that dogs “sense” spirits, rather than “seeing” them with their eyes. ![]() ![]() ![]() Fun fact: Harry's Patronus is a stag, the same as his father's. To conjure a Patronus, one must concentrate on his or her happiest memory. A pink and black reptilian figure, Tung Lashor is a member of the snake men and a villain in the world of the Masters of the Universe. This spell is incredibly difficult to produce, but when performed accurately, will release the witch or wizard's Patronus (AKA a spirit animal). The defense against a Dementor is one of the most famous spells in Harry Potter lore - the Patronus Charm. Even better, draw inspiration from the Weird West genre, with revolver rifles, harmonica guns, duck foot pistols, pepperbox guns, eighteen. They were later employed to defend Hogwarts' borders when Sirius Black escaped and ultimately join forces with Voldemort during the Second Wizarding War. Id ditch the more modern guns (like the Uzi on cover art or any similar weaponry you have planned to include in the game) and stick with Wild West arsenal.
