HPE 131: NETBALL
Trending!
In 1891 in Springfield, Massachusetts a 30-year-old Canadian immigrant to the USA, James
Naismith, was ordered to invent an indoor game for high-spirited young men at the School for
Christian Workers (later the YMCA).
Most games tried ended with injury rates of staggering proportions! So Naismith conjured up a game whereby a ball had to be lobbed into a high peach basket (his reasoning being that if a ball had to dropped into the "goal", it couldn't be thrown at breakneck speed).

ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
The endocrine system is a network of glands in your body
that make the hormones that help cells talk to each other. They’re responsible for almost every cell, organ, and
function in your body. If your endocrine system isn't healthy, you might have
problems developing during puberty, getting pregnant,
or managing stress. You also might gain weight easily,
have weak bones, or lack energy because too
much sugar stays in your blood instead of moving into
your cells where it's needed for energy

PETROLEUM CHEMISTRY
Carbon is so Important in the Life Cycle. It has
numerous ways of bonding with many other
elements, particularly oxygen and hydrogen.
It can form both “organic” and “inorganic”
compounds. Organic compounds are considered
unstable in the biosphere because they are in the
reduced state.
Whereas Inorganic compounds, principally
calcite (CaCO3
) and dolomite (CaMg(CO3
)2
), are
stable because they are in the oxidized state.
Carbon is present in most substances that are
vital for the development of life (called
“biomolecules”): Proteins, lipids, sacharides, etc

atom bonded to an sp3 hybridized carbon atom.
• Alkyl halides are classified as primary (1°), secondary (2°),
or tertiary (3°), depending on the number of carbons bonded
to the carbon with the halogen atom.
• The halogen atom in halides is often denoted by the symbol
“X”.

Natural Gas
Natural gas is a gaseous fossil fuel consisting
primarily of methane but including significant
quantities of ethane, butane, propane, carbon
dioxide, nitrogen, helium and hydrogen sulfide.
Obtained from oil fields and natural gas fields,
and in coal beds.
Methane-rich gases are produced by the
anaerobic decay of non-fossil organic material, ie
biogas.
Total world production of natural gas in 1986
was 100 trillion m3
.
It is used as feed stock as well as fuel. It is
preferred due to its high Calorific Value
