Kites fly! No Lie! You know it! Science!

Well folks if you have a third grade education and can decifer from the title that this blog is about kites. Give yourself a pat on the back. Yes, it is true that in mid-may the omega science classes made kites when the sixth's graders were testing, and then the next week took them out to fly! Now, the kite project came with worksheets, tests and lectures about wind. For instance, when we flew our kites, the wind that picked up our kites was local wind, not global wind. The difference is that global winds travel long distances and spread out, while local winds travel shorter distances and stay in a certain spot. So as you can see, learning about wind dosen't have to be boring, seeing all you have to do is go outside and fly a kite. Later days!

BACK THEN

Well boys and girls across the vast world we call the internet, it is true. There once was a time "back then" when people just like us went to school, ate breakfast and even played sports, but they didn't quite have the advance technology we all know and love. You see, they didn't have flat screen T.V.'s or iPOD's. To make up for those they had mini black and white T.V.'s and they had record players. They didn't have the super cool dyson vacum cleaner that spins on the ball, they had a vacum cleaner on fixed axles. They also didn't have some of the cars we have today. So, as you can see we have a lot to be thankful for boys and girls because we have all this stuff. But, they did have baseball games, and school and all those great pastimes that came before us. So that is what they had back then.

Barack vs. Clinton

Something very exciting is happening in the United States right now. That very exciting thing is that Presidential primary's are going on right now. Now truthfully, I don't really care about the Republicans with John McCain and John Huckabee and one other dude. The race that I am following is the democratic race with Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton. If Barack is lected h will ave become te fst african-american presidentin U.S. histor, while if Hilary is elected she will become the first woman president in american history. Her husband Bill Clinton was also a former U.S. president. Now to get you up to date I'll tell you what's happening. For the past three months Clinton and Obama have been fighting it out to get the state's votes. And, so far it's pretty much even. Over the past four state's these were the polls.
Mississippi 1: Obama-58% Clinton-34%
Mississippi 2: Obama-46% Clinton-40%
Florida: Clinton-55% Obama-39%
Missouri: Obama 41% Clinton-41%
So, over the last four debates the standings are BArack Obama in first with 2-1-1. And Clinton in second with 1-2-1. So, my guess is that Obama will represent the democratic side in the final election.

Different forms of energy

What'sgoing to happen to the world when we run out of oil or electricity? What will happen to us when we run out of energy? Well, instead of doing weeks worth of research to find out when, what, and how, I'll just tell what kind of back-up energy's we have right now. Some of the common resources are Solar energy, Wind energy, and Nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is the diminishing ability of natural resources such as coal, petroleum, and crude oil has left scientists searching for an energy alternitive. The nickname "Solar power" is a little misleading. In fact, most of the energy known to man was some how derived from the sun. Scientists have invented these "Solar panels" which take in the suns energy and helps power items and even buildings! Lastly, there is wind power. Mankind has made use of wind power ever since ancient times. Further, the use of wind turbines to provide power for the accomplishment of argicultural tasks has contributed to the growth of civilization. And those are three important forms of energy resources.

PODCASTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT ROCK'S

Hey all you mloser's out there who skip science class because they hate science. Guess what? Your missing out on all the fun! That's right, you heard me, FUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNN. Because it just so happens that only last wendsday Mrs.Rousseau assigned partners and gave them a podcasting project. Some of you may be asking "What exactly is podcasting?" Well, it's when your able to take a recording of yourself and then be able to put it on your blog for other people to enjoy. Now some of you might also be wondering what this has to do with science. Well, the recording with your partner will be about some scientist. Some of them might still be Rutgers graduates, like mine, or they might be an old scientist who died. Now, I bet your all thinking that just talking to or about some scientist is not fun, but really boring! Thankfully, Mrs.Rousseau is allowing us to use a music creator called "Garage Band" to make the podcast a bit more livelier. But, Mrs.Rousseau doesn't want the music to distract or destroy the attention of the listeners, and point's will be taking away if it does distract the listeners. And that's it in a nutshell. So for all you people who think science is boring you better get back before the project is over.

The saddest day in the history of baseball

The saddest day in baseball was only last November when Senator George Mitchell announced the names of the 86 players on his steroids report. It was a shock to many all around the world. Mostly to the children because they saw that some of their heroes and role models were taking steroids and just cheating to be famous and rich. As many people may know steroids is a performance enhancing drug that many pro athletes may use, but it is illegal and many sport stars are still continuing to use it. Steroids have two kinds of forms, either a pill shaped or a liquid. There are also many other adverse side affects to steroids after using them, such as aggression, violence, rapid mood swings and psychotic episodes. Now even though steroids seem bad for cheating some kids need to use them from doctors order so they can heal faster or because of medical problems. But if you do have it you put yourself in danger of serious risks like liver damage and cancer. People have many theories to how the players got it. One way is that the trainers might have given them the steroids, they could have also purchased them off the black market. Many of the players are calling up their attorneys. Because all of the players named want to get into the hall of fame, and if the were accused of using steroids the people won't vote for them. And were is George Mitchell? He is working on another assignment for Bud Selig, the current commissioner, and going around testing more players to see if they took steroids. So remember that if you takes steroids just to cheat, your sports career will probably end.
