Hi,

It's x² - 25Ï <==ANSWER

That's the area of the square minus the area of the circle.

I hope that helps!! :-)

Ideas needed to create a "Fun Room" for Vacation Bible School?

SAM

Each year at VBS we try to create something fun to reward the children that brought vistiors. Last year we made a maze using cardboard boxes. Another time we filled the baptismal tub (about 10ft long and 5ft wide) with balloons and about 3 inches of water for them to walk through. We thought about burring items in a sand box for them to dig for, but voted that one down because of the mess. This year are thinking about do something with a black light and packing peanuts or shreaded paper, but our own children think parts of the idea are lame. Anyone out there have some successful ideas for us to use?

Answer
i like the trampoline idea...to take it further for bible camp..
you could have a rampup to it and throw stuffed animals in there like noah's ark.

Tips on weight loss, yummy treats?

water trampoline 10ft image

believe in

I have come to the conclusion that I am ready to lose weight, I know some changes that I need to make as drinking alot more water, cutting out the diet pepsi, not eating after dinner, moderation of "good food", and hitting the treadmill. I am very active at work (2 jobs) as I am an LNA and move people that are 3 times my weight, and run myself into the ground. Apparently this isn't enough exercise for me though. Any fun ideas on weight loss, or tasty sweet treats that are also healthy? I would love to kick the ball around with my kids but time with 2 jobs doesn't allow that as much as I would like.

Answer
i don't know about fun exercise but i use dumbells in front of the TV or to music which is kinda fun. Also you can buy mini and full size trampolines which are really fun. i have a full size one (round 10ft x 10ft) which kids will love - guarunteed!
i can help you with the sweet treats, as i am attempting to go on a diet but just can't stay off the sweet treats - especially chocolates and cake. i would suggest two of the following...
firstly, chocolate fondue with dark chocolate. dip any kind of fruit in hot melted chocolate - great with kids too!
secondly, you can make rice crispy cakes with puffed rice cereal. There are loads of recipes, but they are very light and have less fat and calories that ordinary cakes!
good luck

How to construct my own catamaran style boat...?

Dylan

For a construction project, a few friends and I have decided that we want to build our on boat that we can fish on or take out on the water. We figured that a catamaran would offer maximum space on deck with the least amount of materials used to build it. However, we are unsure of how to design out boat, what materials to use, and how much it will cost. We also do not know what to make the dimensions of the boat... we figure that it will need to have room for 3-4 people and maybe even a small bar-bee-q grill. We can't really afford to make an actual, fully sizes boat... but a simple and small one should suffice. So does anyone have any information, suggestions, or web links for us to help get started? Thanks

By the way, we figured that we would just use oars as propulsion rather than a sail. Thank you.

Answer
That's quite a project considering you have no idea :-)
A catamaran will be hard to row - at least, for one person. You could have rowers on both sides like a Roman galley. A cat is also hard to trailer unless you make it come apart - it is too wide.
If this is a cabin project you can leave by the lake that's not an issue.

The easiest construction is probably plywood sealed with fibreglass.
There must be plans online.
For 4 people and a BBQ you're probably looking at 20ft. You can get 4 into a 10ft dinghy but that's all sitting down. If anyone tries messing with a BBQ or stands up it will capsize.

It may be easier/cheaper to buy an old secondhand fixer-upper than start from scratch.

If you put an engine on, you will need registration and probably an operator permit.
In any case, there's safety stuff you should have like PFDs and anchors and flares etc. - depends on jurisdiction.

I used to have a 10ft sailing cat that came apart and car-topped it - OK for 2 people lying on the trampoline, not more than that number of adults.
