Eighteen and a half

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)

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)

Today's featured article Cucurbita (Latin for gourd) is a genus of vines in the gourd family, native to the Andes and Mesoamerica. Five species are grown worldwide, variously known as squash, pumpkin, or gourd depending on species, variety, and local parlance. The fruits have played a role in human culture for at least 2,000 years. First cultivated in the Americas before being brought to Europe by returning explorers, the plants remain an important food source. Most Cucurbita species are herbaceous vines that grow several meters in length and have tendrils, but bush cultivars of C. pepo and C. maxima have also been developed. Many North and Central American species are visited by honey bees, as well as specialist bees that pollinate only a single species. Most of the domesticated species can be considered winter squash, since the full-grown fruits can be stored for months. Their extracts have many uses, including in cosmetics. The fruits are also good sources of vitamins and minerals. (Full article...) Recently featured: Hadji Ali Katy Perry Fusō-class battleships Did you know...

Today's featured picture Le roi d'Ys is an opera in three acts by the French composer Édouard Lalo, to a libretto by Édouard Blau. It is based on the old Breton legend of the drowned city of Ys, which was according to the legend the capital of the kingdom of Cornouaille. The opera includes a noteworthy aubade for tenor in act 3, titled "Vainement, ma bien-aimée" (In vain, my beloved). Le roi d'Ys premiered on 7 May 1888 at the Théâtre Lyrique in Paris, in a production by the Opéra-Comique. Within France, the opera was regarded as Lalo's most recognized work. This poster was produced by Auguste François-Marie Gorguet for the 1888 premiere of Le roi d'Ys, and depicts the final scene of the opera.
