Kids killed in US plane crash
Children are thought to be among 14 people killed when a plane crashed into a cemetery in Montana in America. The small plane was bringing people from California to the state of Montana for a skiing holiday. Seven of those killed were children. The pilot had been planning to land at a different airport, but changed his destination at some point. The plane came down in a cemetery, around 150m from the airport it was heading towards in the town of Butte.

Kenbrena Social Class
Some groups are probably jealous to other groups or just hate each other. It's also possible that it is because of racism.
None of the groups remind me of me or my family.

Were Scientists Fair?
No I do not think they were fair just because he wasn't a geologist. What he had was evidence but all they could see was that he was a meteorologist not a geologist. He knew what he was saying when he presented his theory and his evidence, but they just couldn't accept that it could be possible to move whole continents.

Policeman killed in UK
Constable Stephen Paul Carroll, 48, from County Down, was shot as he got out of a police car at housing estate in Craigavon on Monday night. A group known as the Continuity IRA, which wants Northern Ireland to be a part of a united Ireland and not part of the UK, says it was responsible. The attack comes just two days after two soldiers were killed in Antrim.

What is geography?
Right now I'm in Taiwan Hsinchu City, Zhough Zun Rd. 626 alley. I am at 24˚49'09.23"N 120˚57'21.60"E. I am in my house's study at fourth floor. My house is about a 30 mins drive to school.
Physical means the landscapes or the land features. Human means man made stuff like buildings or stuff. Lastly cultural is humans interacting with geography.
People wear different clothes at different places like when your in somewhere cold, you wear heavy clothing. We need the environment for everything, food, shelter etc.
Movement is like a chain reaction. This thing happens that causes another thing to happen.
Formal means a city where people work. Not really a place to go for vacation. Perceptual means people from all places around the world go there and there are a lot of different languages in the region.

Big Winner
Dear Diary,
Each day, whatever money I have, I go buy lottery with it. I was hoping that I could win more money with it. Like I said, I was a fool for wasting money to gain money. Today, I didn't win anything as usual so I said to myself, hard luck let's try again tomorrow.
Day 2
Dear Diary,
Today, I'm gonna go try my luck again. I went to the lottery stand. I bought a ticket. I checked the numbers. OMG I *The following information is unappropriate for little kiddies* WON. I couldn't believe it and I won 9 trillion £!!
Day 3
Dear Diary,
Today I went to the lottery again and I used up all my money and I lost it all har har har.
The End

My Holidays
For one of my holiday I went to a city in California, America which was at Los Angeles. It is both, formal and perceptual. It is formal mainly because it is a city where people work. Not really a place to go for vacation. It is perceptual because people from all places around the world go there and there are a lot of different languages in the region.

Isolating the Variable
During today's Science Class, we tested our boats that we made out of 3 sheets of paper, 3 straws, and a meter of tape. We were assigned to make a boat that could withstand as many weights as possible. The weights were meant to be students crossing a "moat" which was actually our school fish pond. We were "supposed" to be attacked by chocolate missiles that would turn us into chocolate popsicles if we were shot.We all used the same materials, the same weights and the same water levels without any currents. Only the design of the boat was tested, for everything else was the same.
The uncontrolled variable of the assignment was being able to design whatever container you want. This did affect the outcome of the project because it differed in how many "students" could fit on the boat and whether the boat could withstand the weight.

Blog questions: Money
1) How would you change if you had a lot of money? Would your personality be different?
2) Would you ever take a risk to reach a goal?
3) Would you ever hurt members of your family just so you could be accepted by your friends?
1) I would not change. I will keep all the money at home. In case the bank freezes my account. My personality will not be different.
2) Yes I will. I will risk everything. Without involving other people. I will even risk my life.
3) No never. Even if it means being a loner for the rest of my life. Unless its the kind like my mom picking me up and me being late for my friends. I would never hurt my family physically.

The People, Yes
The poem The People, Yes is full of nonsense except for the last part.

Puzzles and Drift
During our Science class last week, we were given pieces of paper that were cut from a large piece. We were supposed to fit them together and make a one whole sheet of paper. The second day, we had to make it out of newspapers.
We learned in class so far that Alfred Wegener (I think that's how its spelt and pronounced vegener) had a theory about continental drift which is the moving of continents. Earth is actually a huge puzzle and the tectonic plates are the puzzle pieces. The tectonic plates move so the continents that are part of the huge tectonic plates also moves.
Basically I explained how the paper puzzle assignment was related to tectonic plates in the second paragraph.
