This material, called magma, is usually a mixture of liquid rock, gases, and mineral crystals. R: Basalt C: Dark greenish-grey to black. S: Dense, microscopic crystals, often form columns. R: Gabbro C: Greenish-grey to black. S: Coarse crystals. R: Granite C: White to grey,pink to red. S: Tightly arranged medium-to-Coarse crystals. R: Obsidian C: Black, sometimes with brown streaks. S: Glassy, no crystals, breaks with a shell-like fracture. R: Peridotite C: Greenish-grey. S: Coarse crystals. R: Pumice C: Greyish-white. S: Light, glassy, frothy, fine pores, floats on water. SEDIMENTARY ROCKS Sedimentary rock pronounced sehd uh mehn tuhr ee, is rock formed when mineral matter or remains of plants and animals settle out of water or, less commonly, out of air or ice. Sedimentary rock covers about three-fourths of the earth's land area and most of the ocean floor. In some places, such as at the mouth of the mississippi river, sedimentary rocks are more than 40,000 feet (12,000 meters) thick. Geologists estimate that sedimentary rock has been forming for at least 3 1/2 billion years. R: Breccia C: Gray to black, tan to red. S: Angular pieces of rock, held together by natural cement. R: Coal C: Shiny to dull black. S: Brittle, in seams or layers. R: Flint C: Dark gray, black, brown. S: Hard, glassy, breaks with a sharp edge. R: Limestone C: White, gray, and buff to black and red. S: Dense, forms thick beds and cliffs. May contain fossils. R: Sandstone C: White, gray, yellow, red. S: Fine or coarse grains cemented together in beds. R: Shale C: Yellow, red, gray, green, black. S: Dense, fine particles, soft, splits easily, smells like clay. METAMORPHIC ROCKS Metamorphic rock, pronounced meht uh mawr fihk, is one of the three main types of rock in the earth's crust. It forms from the other two main types, igneous and sedimentary. For example, marble is a metamorphic rock that forms from the sedimentary rock limestone. R: Amphibolite C: Light green to black. S: Fine-to-coarse grains, hard, often sparkles. R: Gneiss C: Gray and pink to black and red. S: Medium to coarse crystals arranged in bands. R: Marble C: Many colors, often mixed.

Titanic was designed by Lord Pirrie and was built by Harland and Wolff in Belfast, Northern Ireland. This ship was designed to carry fare-paying passengers across the Atlantic from Britain to the United States. The completed ship cost US$7.5 million in 1912. To get the massive ship in the water, over 2235 tonnes of soap, grease and train-oil were used. The Titanic was launched on May 31, 1911 before a cheering crowd of 10000. FIRST & LAST VOYAGE APRIL 10, 1912: The Titanic commenced her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York, with 2227 passengers and crew on board. On the maiden voyage, the Titanic carried enough food to feed a small town for several months. On Aprill 11, Queenstown, Ireland, the final passengers boarded. Since no dock could accomodate her, they had to be ferried to her. This is a small list of what the Titanic took on her on her maiden voyage: Coffee.................................998kg Dinner Plates.....................12,000 Champagne glasses...........15,000 Table Napkins................... 45,000 Apples.................................36,000 Oranges..............................36,000 Lemons...............................16,000 Grapes................................454kg Fresh Eggs.........................35,000 Fresh Meat........................34,019kg Fresh milk..........................6,820 litres Fresh butter.......................2,722kg Ice-cream...........................794kg Potatoes.............................40.6 tonnes Asparagus..........................800 bundles Wine...................................1000 bottles Ale and stout.....................15,000 bottles BREAKING RECORDS The Titanic broke all records for size and opulence. Length: 269m Weight: 47,071 tonnes Height: 9 decks (11-storeys) Top speed: 44kmh Fuel consumption: 838 tonnes of coal per day Fresh water consumption: 63,645 tonnes per day Lifejackets: 3,560 Lifeboats: 20; capable of rescuing 1,178 people Crew: 907 Passengers: 1,320 Survivors: 705 DISASTER Sunday, April 14, 1912: The ship received nine ice warnings but still steams full speed ahead at 22 knots, or about 44kmh. 11.40pm: Crew reports an iceberg directly in the path of the Titanic. The ship creaks as the engines are forced into reverse; the middle engine does not have a reverse gear on it. The ship hits the ice-berg. Cargo Rooms 1-5 and Boiler Room 6 flood from ice-berg damage. April 15, 2.20am: The Titanic sinks, approximately 21.7km from where her distress calls were transmitted. 1522 lives were lost. April 15, 4.00am: The 705 surviviors, afloat in the ship's lifeboats, are rescued by Cunard Liner, CARPHATHIA. DID YOU KNOW? The original design of the Titanic, and it's sister ships, the Olympic and the Britannic, had 3 funnels. However, Lord Pirrie of Harland and Wolff felt that 4 would give the ships a better overall look. The original design called for 32 lifeboats. However White Star management felt that the boat-deck would look cluttered, and reduced the number to 20. There were 29 boilers each weighing nearly 100 tonnes and 3 anchors weighed 31.5 tonnes. There were 3 propellers---the middle one was 4.88m across and the other 2 were over 7m across. The Titanic had 28 staterooms and suites for the first class passengers. The special staterooms was located amidships on deck B and C and they were designed in different ways. The first-class passengers could choose between a room in designs of Louis XIV, XV, XVI, empire, Italian, Renaissance, Georgian Regency, Queen Anne and both Modern and Old Dutch! A place where people met aboard The Titanic at night was the huge dining saloon located at D deck. It was 114 feet long and 92 feet width. It took maximum 500 people at a siting. The ship even had a French restaurant "Caf Parisien" with French waiters. The second class section was designed to be far superior to the first-class rooms of on any other liner. After the Titanic hit the ice-berg, some passengers went out to the deck to play with the ice. Most of the first-class passengers did not want to go outside in the cold. By 12.45am, the first life-boat, No.7, was lowered. It had a capacity of 65, but left with only 28. Lifeboats were lowered with women and children first. Men were forced to stay behind. Many of the officers were skeptical of the amount of weight the davits could hold, because they were never informed of the rigorous testing that the davits endured. This is one of the reasons that many lifeboats left half-full. At 12.55am, lifeboat No.6 left with fewer than 28 people. No.5 was lowered with 41 and No.3 with 32; all had a capacity of 65. Boat No.1 left with 12, but had a capacity of 40. The musicians kept playing until the boat sank. One millionaire, Ben Guggenheim, exchanged his life belt for a sweater. He wanted to die like a gentleman. Many 3rd class or steerage passengers were trapped in the ship. Some had to break barriers between 1st class and 3rd class to escape to the upper decks. Even on lifeboats, many passengers still felt the Titanic would not sink. Captain Edward J. Smith went down with the Titanic. Thomas Andrews, the ship's builder also went down with her. Chief baker Charles Joughin owed his survival to alcohol. He stepped off the stern of the Titanic and swam around in the water, oblivious to the cold, until picked up by another lifeboat. He had drank a large amount of liquor before the sinking. The Titanic had sent messages with her reported position 41 44" N, 50 24"W and later 41 46"N, 50 14"W. The Titanic's final resting-place is 3,810 meters deep. Source: The Straits Times, Saturday,January 31, 1998.

Avoid eating masses of food such as beans (yes they really do), lentils, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, onions, radishes, wholemeal flower, bananas, apricots, pretzels and even very fatty food. This is because 'breaking wind' is the result of gas produced by bacteria breaking down the indigestible complex carbohydrates found in the foods mentioned above.

The 13 vitamins are vitamins A; B complex, which is actually a group of 8 vitamins; and C, D, E, and K. Scientists divide vitamins into two general groups, fat-soluble vitamins and water-soluble vitamins. The fat-soluble vitamins--vitamins A, D, E, and K--dissolve in fats. The water-soluble vitamins--the B-complex vitamins and vitamin C--dissolve in water. Vitamin A Vitamin A, also known as retinol, occurs naturally only in animals. Eggs, liver, and milk provide much vitamin A. Some plants contain substances called carotenes, or provitamins A, which the body converts into vitamin A. These plants include cantaloupes, carrots, sweet potatoes, dark green leafy vegetables, and deep yellow vegetables. Vitamin A is essential for the development of babies before birth and the growth of children. It is especially needed for the growth of bones and teeth. Vitamin A keeps the skin healthy and helps produce mucous secretions that build resistance to infection. People who do not get enough vitamin A may develop xerophthalmia, in which the surface of the eye becomes dry and likely to develop infection. Vitamin A also forms part of the two pigments that help the eyes to function normally in light that varies in intensity. Night blindness is an early symptom of a deficiency of vitamin A. Vitamin B Vitamin B Complex was first believed to be only one vitamin. Researchers later discovered that it consists of eight vitamins--thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, B-6, pantothenic acid, biotin, B-12, and folic acid (also called folate and folicin). Thiamine, or vitamin B-1, prevents and cures beriberi, a disease of the nervous system. It contains sulfur and nitrogen. Sources of thiamine include legumes, nuts, organ meats, pork, whole grains, and most vegetables. This vitamin, like vitamin A, is needed for growth. The body also needs thiamine to change carbohydrates into energy. Riboflavin, or vitamin B-2, is most abundant in such foods as cheese, fish, liver, milk, poultry, and green and leafy vegetables. Direct sunlight destroys riboflavin in milk. This vitamin is needed for growth and for healthy skin and eyes. It promotes the body's use of oxygen in converting food into energy. If a person does not get enough riboflavin, cracks may develop in the skin at the corners of the mouth. The person also may have inflamed lips and a sore tongue, and scaly skin around the nose and ears. The eyes may become extremely sensitive to light. Niacin helps prevent pellagra. The best sources of niacin include fish, lean meat, and whole grains. Milk and eggs, even though they have little niacin, are good pellagra-preventive foods because they contain tryptophan, an amino acid. The body converts some tryptophan into niacin. Niacin is essential for growth, for healthy tissues, and for the conversion of carbohydrates into energy. It also helps produce fats in the body. Without niacin, thiamine and riboflavin cannot function properly. Lack of niacin may cause ailments of the skin and of the digestive and nervous systems. Vitamin B-6, Pantothenic Acid, and Biotin. A deficiency of these vitamins has never been reported in people who have a healthful diet. Vitamin B-6 helps the body use amino acids. Lack of this vitamin damages the skin and nervous system. Pantothenic acid is converted by the body into coenzyme A, a vital substance that helps the body produce energy from food. Biotin helps the body change fats into fatty acids, which also aid in producing energy. Vitamin B-12 and Folic Acid. Vitamin B-12, also called cobalamin, contains cobalt and is essential for the normal functioning of folic acid. Vitamin B-12 and folic acid are needed to produce deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in the body's cells. DNA carries the "master plans" that govern each cell's activities. A deficiency of either of these two vitamins produces anemia. Physicians may advise a pregnant woman to supplement her diet with folic acid to prevent anemia. Doctors inject minute amounts of vitamin B-12 to treat persons with pernicious anemia. Lack of vitamin B-12 also damages the nervous system. Eggs, fish, liver, meat, milk, and poultry, as well as some microbes, supply vitamin B-12. People who are vegetarians may lack this vitamin. Almost all uncooked foods contain folic acid, but cooking destroys varying amounts of it. Vitamin C Vitamin C, or ascorbic acid. Physicians call vitamin C the antiscorbutic vitamin because it prevents and cures scurvy. The body stores much vitamin C, but it is best to include this vitamin daily in the diet. Good sources o f it include cantaloupe, citrus fruits, raw cabbage, strawberries, and tomatoes. Vitamin C is essential for healthy blood vessels, bones, and teeth. It also helps form collagen, a protein that holds tissues together. People who lack vitamin C may have sore gums and suffer bleeding under the skin. Vitamin D Vitamin D helps prevent rickets. Either a deficiency or an excess of this vitamin can seriously damage the bones. There are several forms of vitamin D. One form, calciferol, or vitamin D-2, is produced in plants. It is produced from a sterol, a type of chemical compound, when a plant is exposed to ultraviolet light. Another form, cholecalciferol, or vitamin D-3, occurs in the tissues of animals, including human beings. It has been called the "sunshine vitamin" because it forms in the skin when the body is exposed to sunlight. Fish-liver oils contain much vitamin D-3. Vitamin D may be used to fortify milk and other animal food products. Vitamin E Vitamin E, or tocopherol, helps prevent polyunsaturated fatty acids from oxidizing (combining with oxygen). Vitamin E thus plays an important role in maintaining cell membranes, which contain substantial amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Good sources of vitamin E include seed oils, vegetable oils, wheat germ, and whole grains. A deficiency of vitamin E occurs rarely and produces few symptoms. Vitamin K Vitamin K is essential for blood clotting. Cauliflower and green leafy vegetables, such as cabbage, kale, and spinach, are rich in vitamin K. Intestinal bacteria manufacture vitamin K in the body, and so deficiencies of this vitamin rarely result from a poor diet. Doctors sometimes give women vitamin K before childbirth in order to prevent bleeding in the newborn baby. Babies do not have enough intestinal bacteria to produce adequate amounts of the vitamin until they are about 2 weeks old. Calcium Calcium is essential to all living things. It is the most abundant metal in the human body. Calcium is vital for the growth and maintenance of the bones and teeth, and it helps the blood to clot and the muscles to contract. A daily diet that includes green vegetables, milk, and milk products supplies enough calcium for the human body's normal needs. General combinations of iron and protein are found in different parts of the body. Iron appears in the organs of the body where blood cells are formed and destroyed. Small amounts of iron are necessary in all cells of the body for their proper functioning. Iron is also needed in muscles and other tissues. About 65 percent of iron is found in red blood cells, where it forms an essential part of a substance called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin carries oxygen from the lungs to other tissues of the body. It also carries carbon dioxide away from tissues to the lungs, which expel the carbon dioxide. Red blood cells live about 120 days. About 1 percent of all red blood cell iron is released daily from dead red cells. Almost all of the iron from dead red blood cells can be reused by the body. Daily loss of iron in a typical adult male is extremely small and principally results from the shedding of dead skin and from sweating. Iron loss is much higher in menstruating females and any other time that the body loses blood. When a person's daily diet does not provide a new supply of iron, eventually hemoglobin cannot be made. Over a period of time, the lack of sufficient iron will result in iron-deficiency anemia, a condition characterized by tiredness and weakness. About 0.1 percent of the body iron is in the blood plasma. This iron is bound to a protein called transferrin that transports it to cells or to the organs where the iron is stored. About 10 percent of the total body iron is in the muscles in the form of myoglobin. Myoglobin is slightly different in composition from hemoglobin, but its function is similar. It transports and stores oxygen for use during muscle contraction. The chief storage houses for iron in the body are the liver, the spleen, and bone marrow. These tissues store the iron that people and animals take into their bodies in the food they eat. Animal liver is the richest source of food iron. Foods of animal origin, particularly red meats, generally supply greater amounts of iron to the diet than do foods of plant origin. Exceptions are milk and dairy products, which are poor sources of dietary iron. After severe blood loss and during infancy, childhood, and pregnancy, the demands for iron are high, and the reserve supply may become low. In these situations, the diet must supply greater amounts of iron to the body. In addition to carrying oxygen, iron also plays a part in the use of oxygen by tissues. Tissues use iron as part of enzymes to form a wide variety of essential bodily compounds. In plants, iron plays an important part in the formation of chlorophyll.
