Greenhouse Effect Response Class Menu Project

I read an article on the greenhouse effect and learned many things. For instance, the greenhouse affect is a complex process by which heat energy from the Sun is trapped in the Earth's atmosphere. Certain gases in the atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide, cause the greenhouse effect. These gasses are a result of human customs. An example of human customs which produce carbon dioxide is driving to work, school, ect. Automobiles produce gasses which are released into the atmosphere. Along with automobiles, most factories which produce goods also release gasses into the atmosphere. Any gas releases rise the temperature. A rising temperature can have a great affect on the many ecosystems of the world such as marine ecosystems, rainforests, the arctic, desserts, plains, ect. The greenhouse effect is a great contributer to global warming. Global warming is a very dangerous change the earth is undergoing currently and it needs to be stopped. If we all reduce the amount of gas we release in the atmosphere by doing simple things such as carpooling, we could greatly reduce the impact of the greenhouse effect.

Bullies Pick on Unpopluar Kids, Studies Find

This article is by Jeanna Bryner. This article is about how children bully, whom they bully, and what gender their victims are. Children are more likely to pick on the unpopular kids because they will have a less likely chance of being defended. Children actually usually bully because they are unhappy with themselves. When targeting the elementary schools studies found how the children usually bully their own gender and children outside their group because they don't want to have the risk of having their own group defend someone else. Bullying has always existed throughout my life span and I'm not really sure when it first started but I know it happens. Bullying happens all over the world in one way or another. personally, bullying is a big deal. Why would someone want to hurt another child. I know why they do the bullying but how can that make a person fell better? I just don't understand.

Bullies.

math blog

Math is all round the world, weather we like it or not. Math is a one of the main ingredients to everything. Sadly math is a main ingredient to a terrible disaster. This terrible disaster is around in different parts of the world. however, I'd like to focus on one part of the world. This issue is about innocent children who are given guns and expect to kill. This topic has a label and it is called child soldiers in Africa. There is a lot of information i could get into right now about this topic. However , I'm gonna put the spotlight on the math about this topic. Math is all about resolving problems. U.N.I.C.E.F is trying to solve this problem by subtracting the amount of Child soldiers there is. The African government Kept adding children from all around Africa. What really needs to happen is for the African government should be cut out all the way. Lets try to solve this problem. (child+soldeirs)- African gov + new better gov. 2 = -childsoldiers. Well thats at least my opion on what should happen. In conclusion, if you want to help to extend your hand even if its out of reach.

Vinegar poppers

In science class today, we received an assignment. Before taking note of what the assignment was i noticed that on the floor was a big taped square in the middle of the room ending at the window. The assignment stated to get a cork to hit the window. Then I knew why the square was there. The only props we were aloud to use was vinegar, baking soda, a cork, and a test tube. When Mrs. R gave us in gesture that it was time to start i snapped the goggles on my face and got right to thinking. Looking back at my notes I realized that in the begging I presumably thought that if we use an even amount of both substances then all would to the window. Now looking back at it with the information i now now well of i wouldn't have chose that montage. although it is hard to get things right on the first try i did get one thing right and that was that i noted to put more pressure on the cork. 1st try was a fail of the cork succeeding to the window. Hopes were still high by second time around. Time was ticking on the clock and we were only giving so much time to come up with our next proportions and then we suddenly came up with the idea to put less baking soda and less vinegar. " come on table 4." walking up to the line having to move quick and trying to shove that cork on only made matters harder. well one thing that i realized was that you cant stop time so you have to work with it. I came to that understanding after a complete fail of hitting the window actually moving at all. the cork fell flat to the ground on our 5Th try. but still with never hitting the window we didn't give up hope. we stuck with the idea of having more vinegar less baking soda. then after we came to the ending of all of our trials we started holding the cork down for 3 seconds trying to increase the pressure. by the end we never hit the window however we did get close. I feel like if our timing was correct and angle we would of hit it. every time i said fail i met i did not meet the goal however nothing is ever a true fail unless you don't try.

Wikipedia: How Accurate Is It?

The question is how accurate is Wikipedia? Well knowing that Wikipedia's information is all posted from the public and random people can esily post lies and change true facts to false. Although there are editers who change all the mishaps and mayhams some vandalizers creat, there somtimes when the editers may not catch every single mess up and the false information can lie there un-edited until red flagged. This can cause many problems to whome rely on this site. I personaly now don't want to use this site anymore because if im doing an assignment i wouldn't want to search false information. That could saverly effect my grade. I know the editera od this site blocked annoymous users from being able to change information however that still wont 100% drop all of the vandalizers. I feel bad about this because now the accuracey rate dropped and it still is very accurate but not as accurate as can be. jeremy Hsu was who wrote this blog that provided me with all of this information. His blog was posted on November 6th 2009. here is the blog -----> link where blog is

The Giant Plant Eats Rodents

There once was a plant that could grow oh so large in fact, bigger than four feet tall. This plants name was Nepenthes Attenboroughii and it is the worlds second largest plant in the world. However what is strange about this plant is that it doesn't stick to insects for dinner. The plant is so large it can eat rodents! This might seem a little strange because if anything this would be the other way around. Clearly this plant is not like any other and this plant is very clever. Mice and frogs are attracted to the sweet nectar of a plant which so, the plant produces that sweet nectar to reel them in. This plant was founded by many different people as so, missionaries and researchers. Although there is not indication of who was first; there is s main source for who has supported all of my information along with the article. Stewart MicPherson and his science crew rediscovered this plant. Where they found this plant was in South West Asia most likly found at tops of mountains. In conclusion, there will be further more detailed research on this plant and be careful next your hiking a mountain in south west Asia because you don't want to be eaten up by a Nepenthes Attenboroughii. "not true! a human cannot be eaten by a Nepenthes Attenboroughii."

Why do flamingos' stand on one leg?

The question that seems to boggle scientist mind is, why do flamingos' stand on one leg. Scientist came up with many hypothesis. They needed to prove their hypothis by observing the flamingos'. They went to the zoo to study the flamingos'. after a long day of close up observation every other hypothis was out ruled by the hypothis of thermoregulation. Thermoregulation means the regulation of body temperature. The reason why they thought thermoregulation is reason for their aqward postion is because, it was a proven fact that legs and feet were a cause of heat loss in birds and holding one leg up towrt the body would revers the effect of loosing heat and then they would regain the heat at a comfortable level. Although this hypothis is not standard and oproved of being a true fact, the scintist and I both belive that this hypothis is correct. In conclusion, their is no ofical answer to the question "why do flamingos' stand on one leg" however it's pretty clear of what the answer cloud be and is most likly to be.
