One by one my friend came, and became a lot of people. I saw the committee was very busy prepared Dewa Athena. Dewa Athena was started. There was opening from Teh Anisa (the leader of even), Pak Encang Iskandar (the leader of SMA NEGERI 3 BANDUNG), and Kang Yasril Mumtaz (The leader of OSIS SMA NEGERI 3 BANDUNG). The Anisa said that Dewa Athena is OSIS work in sport sector and she want Dewa Athena can run good. Pak Encang said that Dewa Athena 7 is the same time he takehold of principal at SMA NEGERI 3, and he said Dewa Athena is in management 1567 related to increase ability in sector sport. Kang Yasril said that Dewa Athena is refreshing moment when we have a lot of homework and test at SMA NEGERI 3, and he give us a traditional poetry, the point of that traditional poetry is, the important of this competition is we have tried not win or lose. Dewa Athena is legitimated by Makot Dewa Athena. I forgot the name of the Maskot, sorry… The Maskot run while brought torch which have been given by Pak Encang.

I played tarik tambang, and I have given all of my energy, but we were lose, sorry L. XI IPA 4 was very strong. They could attacked us just 2 round. X 3 When the first day Dewa Athena played Estafet, we lose too, but they (iffa, mahsa, reza, ilham) were good runner, They run fast. But the net disturb the runner so they lose.   I didn’t watch football girl, because I had extra study at GO. But my friend tell us they lose , whereas they played good, they ball position were 70%, maybe we weren’t luck.

I don’t know when the second day of Dewa Athena, I wish X IPA 3 can win in other sport. Lose is  common, we have tried and keep spirit X IPA 3.

NATURAL PHENOMENON

Catatumbo Lightning

The Catatumbo Lightning (Spanish: Relámpago del Catatumbo) is an atmospheric phenomenon in Venezuela. It occurs only over the mouth of the Catatumbo River where it empties into Lake Maracaibo. The frequent, powerful flashes of lightning over this relatively small area are considered to be the world's largest single generator of tropospheric ozone.
It originates from a mass of storm clouds at a height of more than 5 km, and occurs during 140 to 160 nights a year, 10 hours per day and up to 280 times per hour. It occurs over and around Lake Maracaibo, typically over the bog area formed where the Catatumbo River flows into the lake.
After appearing continually for centuries, the lightning ceased from January to April 2010, apparently due to drought.This raised fears that it might have been extinguished permanently. The phenomenon reappeared after several months.

Location and formation mechanism

The Catatumbo lightning usually develops between the coordinates 8°30′N 71°0′W and 9°45′N 73°0′W. The storms (and associated lightning) are likely the result of the winds blowing across the Maracaibo Lake and surrounding swampy plains. These air masses inevitably meet the high mountain ridges of the Andes, the Perijá Mountains (3,750 m), and Mérida's Cordillera, enclosing the plain from three sides. The heat and moisture collected across the plains creates electrical charges and, as the air masses are destabilized at the mountain ridges, result in almost continual thunderstorm activity. The phenomenon is     characterized by almost continuous lightning, mostly within the clouds, which is produced in a large vertical development of clouds that form large electric arcs between 2 and 10 km in height (or more). The lightning tends to start approximately one hour after dusk.
Among the major modern studies there is the one done by Melchor Centeno, who attributes the origin of the thunderstorms to closed wind circulation in the region. Between 1966 and 1970, Andrew Zavrostky investigated the area three times, with assistance from the University of the Andes. He concluded that the lightning has several epicenters in the marshes of Juan Manuel de Aguas National Park, Claras Aguas Negras, and west Lake Maracaibo. In 1991 he suggested that the phenomenon occurred due to cold and warm air currents meeting around the area. The study also speculated that an isolated cause for the lightning might be the presence of uranium in the bedrock.
Between 1997 and 2000 Nelson Falcón conducted several studies, and produced the first microphysics model of the Catatumbo Lightning. He identified the methane produced by the swamps and the oil deposits in the area as a major cause of the phenomenon.It has been noted to have little effect on local flora such as ferns, despite concerns.

Historical references

The first written mention of the Catatumbo lightning was in the epic poem "La Dragontea" (1597) by Lope de Vega, which recounts the defeat of English raider Sir Francis Drake. The Prussian naturalist and explorer Alexander von Humboldt once described it as "electrical explosions that are like phosphorescent gleam." Italian geographer Agustin Codazzi described it as a "lightning that seems to arise from the continued Zulia river and its surroundings." The phenomenon became so celebrated that it was depicted in the flag and coat of arms of the state of Zulia, which contains Lake Maracaibo, and mentioned in the state's anthem. This phenomenon has been popularly known for centuries as the Lighthouse of Maracaibo, since it is visible for miles around Lake Maracaibo.
In February 2014, The Weather Channel featured an article stating that the Catatumbo Lightning phenomenon in Venezuela had made it into the Guinness Book of World Records for the most lightning strikes in one region at any given time.
