OLYMPIC TORCH

When did they first start the olympic torch?

1928 summer olympics in Amsterdam

Why do they have an olympic Torch?

The Olympic flame is a symbol of the Olympic Games. Commemorating the theft of fire from the Greek god Zeus by Prometheus, its origins lie in ancient Greece, where a fire was kept burning throughout the celebration of the ancient Olympics.

What happens with the Olympic Torch?

The Olympic flame was lit by a concave mirror in Olympia, Greece and transported over 3,187 kilometres by 3,331 runners in twelve days and eleven nights from Greece to Berlin. Leni Riefenstahl later staged the torch relay for the 1938 film Olympia.

How long does the torch take to get to Rio?

Follow the Olympic Torch Relay to Rio! Over 12000 torchbearers will carry the Olympic flame through 329 Brazilian cities between May 3-Aug 5, 2016.

Find 5 interesting facts about the Olympic torch

The ancient Greeks believed that fire was given to humankind by Prometheus, and considered fire to have sacred qualities. Mirrors were used to focus the sun's rays to ignite flames that would burn perpetually in front of Greek temples. Greek rituals also included torch relays, although this was not actually part of the Olympic Games.

Today, the Olympic flame is lit in front of the ruins of the Temple of Hera in Olympia, Greece. The flame emphasizes the connection between the ancient games and the modern ones. In the past, a high priestess of the Temple of Hera would light the flame using a skaphia, the ancestor of parabolic mirrors.

The modern use of the Olympic Flame began in 1936. It coincided with the advent of a long relay of runners carrying torches to bring the flame from Olympia to the site of the games. Once there, the torch is used to light a cauldron that remains lit until it is extinguished in the Closing Ceremony.

The first such relay took place for the 1936 Berlin Games. Some 3,330 runners brought the flame through Greece,Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Hungary, Austria, Czechoslovakia, and Germany. Similar relays have taken place for every Summer Game since.

The 2004 relay was the first to start and end in Greece; it was also the first to visit every continent, crossing 34 cities in 27 countries before returning to Greece. The flame travels by plane between cities, and is relayed by foot within cities.

Being a torch-bearer is considered an honor, one given to local residents with a record of community service, in addition to athletes and celebrities.

The torches generally burn a gas fuel, and are specially designed to resist the effects of wind and rain.

The Olympic torch relay began in 1936 at the Berlin Games. Carl Diem, the secretary general of the Organizing Committee of the Games of the XI Olympiad in Berlin, proposed using a torch relay to bring the flame from Olympia to the games in Germany. Modern historians have speculated that Adolf Hitler, then chancellor of Germany who believed in the supremacy of the Aryan race, pushed for the torch relay to symbolically link the Berlin games with the rituals and gods of Ancient Greece.

Critics state that the Olympic torch relay survives solely due to the support of commercial interests, rather than in the spirit of the original goals of the games: to promote greater contact and interchange between countries and athletes.

AXOLOTL

In class we have been doing report writing about axolotls there are a couple of elements for you to look at.

AXOLOTL

Axolotl

AXOLOTL

General statement

Axolotl are walking Mexican fish. They are amphibians who spend their whole lives underwater.

DIET

Axolotls swallow their prey hole just like a snake. They eat insects larvae,worms,small fish,mollusk,Crustacean,goldfish,other axolotls and just about any fish they can fit in their mouth and swallow whole.

HABITAT

Today wild axolotls live in Mexico in a lake called Xochimilco near Mexico city. They also live in another lake by the name of lake Chalco but lake Chalco is starting to dry up so if you wanted to keep one at home you have to have a fish tank 30 inches in length but 45 would be perfect the tank should be 21 gallons (81 liters)  Axolotls need a filter. If the filter has a tube, hide it behind something or aim it at the glass so it does not destroy their gills if they get near it, or keep the filter on a lower power.The water temperature of an axolotl house is very important. You should keep it 10 C (50 F). temperature above 24 C (72 F) are very stressful to axolotls. Water temperature above 72 F will kill your Axolotl

PREDATORS

The axolotls predators are big fish,birds,storks and herons.After being attacked by a predator an axolotl can regenerate body parts. Also people kill them by polluting their water and building over their environment.

There has been an effort to try and breed and release axolotls to try and increase their numbers because they are nearly extinct because of pollution and people killing their environment.  

APPEARANCE

Axolotls are grey or white with dark eyes. The colour depends on its cells. It can grow up to 30 cm in length and ways from 60-227 grams. They also ages but stay in larvae form its entire life.

CLOSING STATEMENT

There has been an effort to try and breed and release axolotls to try and increase their numbers because they are nearly extinct because of pollution and people killing their environment.

The ceremony was over and they were signing the paper then I got butterflies and it felt like they were going to bust out of me like lava erupting out of a volcano I was as scared as a scardy cat goosebumps slithered silently like a snake down my back as fast as a flash of lightning.

It was time me and my cousin got ready I was going to explode aunty was strolling down the aisle then they stopped  me and my cousin walked out like warriors getting ready to fight we were as loud as a pride of lions we looked as ferocious as a hyena my face was as red as blood finally it was over auntys eyes were pouring down with tears like rain.
