After mounting the bike, the biker must now achieve balance in order to get the bike moving forward. Thus, upon mounting the bike (i.e., sitting on the saddle), the biker must put his feet on the bike's pedals. To move forward, s/he must put his/her leg on the floor, give a push, then immediately replace it on the pedal and both legs must begin doing circular motions with the pedals to keep the bike moving forward. While doing these circular motions repeatedly, the biker must maintain his/her balance by firmly gripping the handlebars and pointing the bike straightly toward the path that the rider intends to take. When making turns, the rider must point the bike toward the intended path, maintain his/her balance, and keep cycling by moving the pedals circularly.
When the rider is comfortable with the balance and path that s/he intended to take, s/he can now choose the speed in which s/he wanted to cycle. If the biker is physically capable to bike at full speed, then s/he can do so by rapidly pedaling the bike. Also, it would also help if s/he makes use of the gearshift by loosening...
If s/he wanted to go slower, then the biker has the option to pedal slower and ensure this by tightening the tension in the wheels.
In the previous paragraph, the uses of the gearshift have already been explained. Braking while biking, meanwhile, is also another way to decrease the speed of the bike. This process involves using the brakes attached in the handlebar, thereby allowing the biker to not only slow down his/her speed when s/he wants to, but to also immediately put the bike to a stop when the need arises (i.e., an obstruction on the biker's way suddenly appeared), most especially when the biker is passing through a rough terrain, where the path is not smooth and biking may require different levels of speeds for specific areas of the terrain.
Upon reaching the biker's destination, s/he puts the bike to a halt by pressing on the brakes, and immediately putting one leg on the floor for support and balance. The biker dismounts by putting away the other leg from the other side of the bike.
Art Analysis: Art21 After reviewing the artists from Art21, the artists chosen are Pierre Huyghe and AI Weiwei as the subjects of this paper. The pieces the paper will be "This is not a time for dreaming" by Huyghe and "Forever" by Weiwei. Both pieces are installation pieces although the artists are not classified under the same grouping on the Art21 website. Weiwei is listed as "Featured in Change" and Huyghe
In short, kids are no longer getting exercise simply by being kids. Part II: Summary and answer of research questions The advantage of the author's approach is that she does not merely target 'childhood obesity' as a vague concept, but specifically targets one aspect of children's lifestyles today that has changed in the past and is a likely component of the obesity epidemic. She targets issues educators can have a concrete
That would be nice, like the old times.' But eventually, they did find a parking space in an alley behind a Dunkin' Donuts and the girls piled out. Alison had never seen a place move and shake quite like the frat house: the building was dilapidated and strobe lights from within poured out of the windows. At first, the brothers at the door weren't going to let them in, but
, 1999). In many areas of the country this may be very accurate. Another problem that comes into the picture where obesity in children is concerned is that many parents must work very long hours today to pay bills and have money for what their family needs (Mokdad, et al., 1999). Because of this, many children are latchkey kids and are not watched as closely by their parents as they used
Another interesting statistic is that youth belonging to gangs commit the greatest percentage of violent crime among the youth, with a figure as high as 89% of serious violent crimes by gang members reported for Denver, where only 14% of the youth population belonged to gangs. This is an issue that should be seriously addressed in Macom. In terms of ethnic minorities, the statistics are far less conclusive than those
diversity of learning styles and needs represented in a typical 21st century classroom. As the United States continues to see an increase in multi-ethnic, multinational populations, the children of immigrants that bring diverse cultures and ethnicities to American shores are represented in the classroom. This presents a serious challenge for the educator, since the diversity of students reflect a wide range of competencies, skills and levels of intellectual comprehension.
