It turns out there’s an entire blog entry on my clipboard. I like to do that before submiting them, or else risk losing my work forever. I gained that habit from having OWF crash on me too often. ;)

I don't believe I've never posted here before. O me, o my. Time to post my two cents...

State Fossil: Belemnite
On July 2, 1996, belemnite was named as the official fossil of Delaware. The Martin Luther King, Jr. Elementary School (Wilmington) third grade Quest students of Kathy Tidball suggested honoring the ancient and noble belemnite as our State fossil.
The belemnite was, in essence, a squid with a conical shell. It is an extinct member of the phylum Mollusca, which includes clams, snails, squids and octopuses. Belemnite fossils can be easily found along the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal, which is where the Quest Students collected specimens during a field trip.
Delaware Code Title 29 § 314




State Mineral: Sillimanite
Sillimanite is widespread throughout the schists of the Delaware Piedmont and occurs as large masses and steam-rounded boulders at the Brandywine Springs State Park. Sillimanite is suitable for lapidary work and under the name Fibrolite, it was recognized by geologists in Delaware prior to 1830.
Delaware Code Title 29 § 310




State Soil: Greenwich Loam
Since Greenwich loam (a coarse, loamy, mixed, semiactive, mesic, Typic Hapludult) is commonly found in all counties in Delaware and enhances water quality, agriculture, wildlife habitat, and natural landscape beauty, it was adopted as the State soil on April 20, 2000.

Hubble bubble, toil and trouble, add a worm- no, make it double, stir-in Coke and keyboard tabs, now we just need horseshoe crabs.

Ooooookay. I have no idea where that came from.

For this test case there was only one invalid class: that the student was not eligible to enrol.

1. What is the difference between a Business Use Case and a System Use Case? Are they connected and if so, how?
Business Use Case reflects how the system operates now. It includes all actors that are involved with the system. BUC are developed to produce SUC.
System Use Case reflects how the system should work. It only includes actors that interact directly with the system.

The Darrieus operates differently than the common propeller turbines by rotating around the central shaft. This enables the generator to be placed at the bottom, facilitating easy maintenance.

By contrast, a conventional design has all of the force of the wind attempting to push the tower over at the top, where the main bearing is located. Additionally, one cannot easily use guy wires to offset this load, because the propeller spins both above and below the top of the tower. Thus the conventional design requires an extremely strong tower that grows dramatically with the size of the propeller.

In overall comparison, the Darrieus design puts much more of its weight (and cost) into components that actually generate power, the blades, and much less into supporting them. Additionally the generator and main bearings are located at the bottom, where they can be easily serviced. A final advantage to the design is that the blades typically spin at a speed near that of the wind, which birds do not have a problem avoiding. In contrast, the propeller tips of a conventional design spin at very high speeds, often over 100km/h, which causes serious problems with bird and bat strikes.
