  • "We are living, breathing, human beings that need water to live. The simple act of having water with me wherever I go has completely changed my energy level, and my focus!" - Natalie Dougherty - 175
  • Too much sugar can make you fat.
    Sugar is a natural preservative.
    Sugar beets supply half the American sugar, with the rest coming from sugar cane. - 606
  • Harvested sugarcane is more than 50 percent water. The average sugarcane stalk weighs about 3 pounds, and contains about 0.3 pounds (0.14 kilograms) of sugar. - 607
  • The sugar cane must be crushed within 24 hours of being cut. - 608
  • Sugar processors add lime to the cane juice to coagulate the impurities. The juice is then neutralised with sulphur dioxide to settle out impurities. Sugar producers also add sodium hydrogen sulphate at the final stages of boiling. This releases sulphur dioxide into the juice and lightens the color of the final product. (Note: A high sulphur content often remains in the final product.)

    People who are sensitive to sulfur may have an allergic reaction to the "pure white sugar". - 609

  Comments and Quotes  

We need people who can swim in the water. - John McCain - 257


A waterspout is a nonsupercell tornado that occurs over warm water. Waterspouts usually occur in the summer when parts of the ocean are hot. The hot air above the ocean will rise into the cooler air which forms a cloud. The hot air will spin so fast that if will form a funnel extending from the cloud. If this funnel touches the surface of the water, a waterspout is created. They are most common in the Florida Key and the southeast Florida Coast during the rainy season. However, waterspouts can occur in the western United States with late winter storms. Because a waterspout is a weak tornado, the most harm that is can cause is from flying debris. - Michelle Rooks - 234
