FIRE WHIRL

 Tornadoes are terrifying events, but add fire and they become spectacularly terrifying. Fire whirls occur when the heat from a fire drive the air above it in such a way as to form a vortex with the cooler air outside. If this vortex acquires a vertical spin then a fire whirl, a vortex sucking flames upwards, will form. Fire whirls can be incredibly dangerous as they may pick up burning debris and so spread the flames.

When Tokyo was struck by an earthquake in 1923 an enormous fire whirl was created by the massive numbers of burning wooden buildings. The whirl was a major factor in the burning to death of 38,000 people. Smaller whirls are commonly seen at the front of fires in grasslands.


 A fire tornado consists of a core—the part that is actually on fire—and an invisible pocket of rotating air that feeds fresh oxygen to the core. The core of a typical fire tornado is 1 to 3 feet (0.30 to 0.91 m) wide and 50 to 100 feet (15 to 30 m) tall. Under the right conditions, very large fire tornadoes—several tens of feet wide and more than a thousand feet (300 meters) tall—can form. The temperature inside the core of a fire tornado can reach up to 2,000 °F (1,090 °C)—hot enough to potentially reignite ashes sucked up from the ground. Often, fire tornadoes are created when a wildfire or firestorm creates its own wind, which can turn into a spinning vortex of flame.


Another example is the numerous large fire whirls (some tornadic) that developed after lightning struck an oil storage facility near San Luis Obispo, California on 7 April 1926, several of which produced significant structural damage well away from the fire, killing two. Thousands of whirlwinds were produced by the four-day-long[dubious – discuss] firestorm[citation needed] coincident with conditions that produced severe thunderstorms, in which the larger fire whirls carried debris 5 kilometers away.


 There are currently three known types of fire whirls:
    Type 1: Stable and centered over burning area.
    Type 2: Stable or transient, downwind of burning area.
    Type 3: Steady or transient, centered over an open area adjacent to an asymmetric burning area with wind.

Holiday

Okay, now I want to tell you about my last holiday...


It’s a two weeks long holiday. It was boring, seriously it is, to the point that I think I already get used to it. But, the word ‘holiday’ itself already made me happy, so, okay :D

Mostly, I spent my holiday at home. But it doesn’t mean I didn’t go out at all. So, actually I have nothing interesting to be told... But, anyway, just read. 

In the first week of holiday. I spent it at home, mostly, but I did go out several times. At christmas my parents got a day-off from work and we (along with my little brother) went out to eat =3 And on the Friday, I went to school to meet some of my friends and bought materials for Technical Drawing Task :v After that, I went to the zoo with Lathifah, just the two of us \ :D / Because the other guys weren’t interested and have another plans :v

There’re lots of animals in the zoo, indeed. But, we spent most of the time at Tigers and Lions zone and... was it mouse deer zone? :v We took a lot of photos and videos as well, but mostly (maybe all of it) are animals :v

Here are some of the photos :D


Beside that, since I mostly spent my holiday at home, I was playing video games a lot. I played Osu! and managed to improve 1 level, The Sims (3, Caste Away and Medieval) and some of GBA games with emulator. But mostly, I was playing...

Pokemon. Pokemon. And... POKEMON!!!

Seriously... was I playing it too much? It wasn’t only one game, but, a lot like... a lot. First, Pokemon Ruby with GBA emulator and finally for the first time of my life after all of  ‘troubles’ that ever happened I put an end to it, yes, finally :’); Second, Pokemon White and Pearl with DS emulator, I haven’t finished it though; Third, Pokemon Crystal and Emerald with GBA emulator, but I stopped, because I wasn’t really interested; And last; Pokemon Fire-red with GBA emulator, it got restarted about 3 times or more before because the saved file corrupted :’( But, I decided to start it all over again in the end...

Beside that, I also working on my technical drawing assignment, just the monochromatic by the way :v and I spent a lot time watching a tv as well, mostly, it’s Stand Up Comedy thingy :3 It’s a lot fun seriously, it is, I just can’t get enough of it :’8 I also watch some animes and dramas on my laptop by the way...

And on the second week of the holiday, I got more nothing to do... just playing games all day, eating, sleeping, waiting stand up comedy on tv, rewatching some animes and dramas... doodling, sketching, whatever, wasting time... I also played with cats or hamsters at home, but actually I was just looking at them for 5-10 minutes and it happened more than once a day...

I went out several times as well but it’s only for buying stuffs at supermarket or technical drawing materials at balubur... And on the last three days, I started to working on my polychromatic, and thought that I should finished it before school starts. But I end up finished it up, on the day I have to give it to the teacher :v

So, maybe that’s all about my last holiday, it’s boring, right? But, well, I already got used to that kind of holiday so, okay, that’s normal for me :)

Bye~

Student Council President

To me, a leader is someone who wants and can lead while being one with the others and can works with others. They have to be able to combine others opinions along with his and work it out. It's the same for a leader of a student council. Moreover, it involves the school's components, such as students, teachers, and others. So, it must be a heavy task and may gain a lot of stresses.
 

I'm a typical of person who do things quickly as soon as I'm told to and will do better if I'm interested on it. But, even if I'm not, because it's my job, my responsbility, I will do it no matter what. And I'm a person who prefer to observe and listen to others opinion so I think, I can combine all of the opinions better.
 

If I'm chosen as a leader I promise I will not dump my responsbility, whatever it is, I will make it work out. Maybe not the best way or result but I will make sure it's not the worst as well. I will listen to others opinion as well and ask them to work it out along with me. I will not make anyone down. Because, if the leader's himself not doing well, how about the rest? That's why no matter what I will do my best, so, to not let people regrets of what they did. That's all.
