Eventually, watt decided to become a maker of mathematical instruments, such as quadrants and compasses. In 1755 he went to London, but only lived there for two years before moving to Glasgow.

In 1964 Watt improved on a model of a Newcomen steam engine. In the Newcomen`s the steam was pushed into a cylinder, then condensed back into water. A year later Watt realised it would be more efficient to condense the steam in another chamber separate from the cylinder. However , it was not until 1769 that Watt patented his knew idea, the separate condenser.

In 1766 Watt landed a job as a land surveyor marking out land for canals and eight years later he moved to Birmingham. In 1775 he went into partnership with MatthewBoulton and began making steam engines which were used for pumping water out of mines.

By 1780 the Industrial Revolution was beginning to transform life in Britain and Watt adapted his steam engines to provide a rotary motion so they could be used to power machines in new factories. In 1781 he used the sun and planet gear to do this and four years later, steam engines were used to power machines in cotton mills for the first time.

Meanwhile, in 1782 Watt invented another major improvement, the double-acting steam engine. In 1788 he invented the fly ball governor to regulate the speed of steam engines and a pressure gauge in 1790.

In 1785 Watt was elected a fellow of the royal society and he retired from business in 1800.

James Watt died on August 25, 1819 and was buried in Birmingham. Finally, in 1882 a unit of electrical power was named the watt his honor.

HERO

There`s a hero if you look inside your heart
You don`t have to be afraid of what you are
There`s an answer if you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know will melt away
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fear aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone

Look inside you and be strong
And then you will finally see the thruth
That a hero lies in you

It`s a long road when you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand for you to hold
You can find love if you search within your self
And the emptiness you felt will disappear

Lord knows dreams are hard to follow
But don`t let anyone tear them away
Hold on, there will be tomorrow
In time you will find the way

The King’s Disease

My Day at the Beach

Last week my friend and I were bored after three weeks of holidays, so we rode our bikes to Smith Beach, which is only five kilometers from where I live. When we arrived at the beach, we were surprised to see there was hardly anyone there. After having a quick dip in the ocean, which was really cold, we realized one reason there were not many people there. It was also quite windy.

After we bought some hot chips at the takeaway store nearby, we rode our bikes down the beach for a while, on the hard, damp part of the sand. We had the wind behind us and, before we knew it, we were many miles down the beach. Before we made the long trip back, we decided to paddle our feet in the water for a while, and then sit down for a rest. While we were sitting on the beach, just chatting, it suddenly dawned on us that all the way back, we would be riding into the strong wind.

When we finally made it back home, we were both totally exhausted! But we learned some good lessons that day.
