Diabetes:A Growing Problem

About 1 out of 8 people have diabetes and 1/3 of the people in New York don't even know that they have it! Signs of diabetes are blindness, strokes, heart problems, and kidney failure. People in the Bronx and in minorities who have diabetes are at greater risk. Some can't even control it so it's harder for them. For more info, click on the link below:

This was a recent study. I stronly support more study to prevent any deaths or injuries that could kill.

Robotic Garage???

I thought that having a robot park your car for you was quite impossible. Well it's not. The year 2057 has come to the present. Today, on ABC7, or, for more info, http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/story?section=local&id=4984574, the company Automotion introduced the robotic garage that will be in Little Italy, New York; Brooklyn, New York; and Manhattan, New York. It's simple, easy, and stores and saves space easily. An easier lilfestyle has just arrived. I stronly support this idea and hope it will flourish but the price is high and some people in the lower class may not be able to afford it.

Robotic Garage

Who ever heard of a robot parking your car for you? I thought that that wasn't possible till at least 2057! Well, I was wrong. In Manhattan, Little Italy and Brooklyn, New York a robot parks your car for you. You just slide your card on this ATM-like machine. Then you park your car on a platform. While you leave, the robot whisks your car away and stores it in a "car-shelf". In this type of garage, you could store more than the usual number of cars! Talk about easy storage! It's from a group called automotion.

Royalty Tonight

There was a newsflash about Britain's prince trying to conserve and prevent greenhouse gas from spreading and in that cause he was converting all his transport vehicles such as his cars to bio-fuel, which is supposed to be organic and help prevent greenhouse gas and the burning of fossil fuels. You can go to the link below and see other news about the royals from Britain and the royals to come.

There wasn't an available date but I think that is was a time span from a very recent date. Since Prince Charles has been traveling around, there is no telling when he decided to do this. If I can find the exact date I'll put on the site. I think that this is a very good idea and the prince even, what seems to business people who don't stop to think about the waste they are producing, is making some sacrifices. I strongly support the prince's ideas and I think that if every one started to follow what he's doing then people will feel cleaner and better.

(p.s. dont grade this b/c its not for science)

if u think about it, red and pink are the official colors. but purple might be in there some where.

Get a doctor! Suddenly fish look like toothpicks!

Today in class we did toothpick fish. We had to fill out a chart and complete questions. (The chart above)

I think that this activity was okay, but it was at first, confusing. If there were more simpler and easier to read directions than I would understand it more. Some questions there were were like: "Can two green fish mate and have orange offspring? Why or why not?" or "Have all the yellow alleles disappeared?" We had to answer these questions in our notebooks. We had partners and I think that if anyone has questions they should go to:http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0oGklmbU7VFQTQBTytXNyoA;_ylu=X3oDMTE2cDI0djJjBGNvbG8DdwRsA1dTMQRwb3MDMQRzZWMDc3IEdnRpZANGNjU0Xzg4/SIG=11uerta6p/EXP=1169597723/**http%3a//www.genetics.gsk.com/kids/dna01.htm

this source has games that will peak your interest and will help anyone understand DNA and genes better. The beginning DNA game also gives you facts along the way. The little purple person will say, "did you notice that the hydrogen ...." or "that's a completed segment. this is one way to think of DNA..."

Avatars
