Niagara Falls is the collective name for three waterfalls that straddle the international border between the Canadian province of Ontario and the U.S. state of New York. They form the southern end of the Niagara Gorge, Located on the Niagara River which drains Lake Erie into Lake Ontario, the combined falls form the highest flow rate of any waterfall in the world, with a vertical drop of more than 165 feet (50 m). Horseshoe Falls is the most powerful waterfall in North America, as measured by vertical height and also by flow rate.[3] The falls are located 17 miles (27 km) North of Buffalo, New York. The Niagara Falls are for their beauty and power.

The Landforms of New York

Major Rivers & MountainsAdrirondacksAppalachiansHudson River

Much of New York was covered in ice during the cycles of Pleistocence continental glaciation. The glacial deposits, called morains created the Finger Lakes.

New York shares with Ontario one of the greatest waterfalls on Earth, Niagra Falls, which is partly glacial in origin.

Upstate New York showcases two heraldic mountain systems : the Adirondack Mountains and the Appalachians. The Adirondack Mountains derive from a great dome of ancient Precambrian rocks up to a billion years old that are structually like the Canadian Shield to the north.

In 1898, his family moved to Cheyenne, Wyoming, where he attended Kearney Military Academy. Within a few years, his family returned to New York, and he graduated from Hamburg High School in 1907. Four years later, he obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Rochester, where he wrote his first play, Perfectly Harmless, for the University Dramatic Club.Abbott then went to Harvard University, where he studied playwriting under George Pierce Baker.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (born Ferdinand Lewis Alcindor, Jr., April 16, 1947) is a retired American professional basketball player. He is the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, with 38,387 points.

In college at UCLA, he played on three consecutive national championship teams, and his high school team won 71 consecutive games.

George Herman Babcock (June 17, 1832 – December 16, 1893) was an American inventor. He and Stephen Wilcox co-invented a safer water tube steam boiler, and founded the Babcock & Wilcox boiler company.Babcock's water tube steam boiler provided a safer and more efficient production of steam, and was built to work better under higher pressures than earlier boilers. In 1881 their company was incorporated, with Babcock as president and Wilcox as vice president.In 1997, Babcock was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame.
