Frog Leonidas: The Invulnerable Frog
I experienced something I never could have imagined: a frog that had been punched on the head for more than 10 times by Mr. Truchon, Jack V, and me, strangled, it's brain stirred up into mush, it's body cut open, the intestines pulled out. So, mainly it's just skin and some muscle left, and the legs still seem to be alive!! It's still kicking as if it was still alive!!!! It was kicking every five minutes!!! Without a brain!!! Without a heart!!! Without anything left inside it's body!!! IT'S ALIVE!!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!! I found out later that the individual organs still functions even though it's cut off from the rest, it operates until it runs out of oxygen or because it didn't receive the things it needed to work. That's why the leg still jumps and we can still tickle it:D It's extremely fascinating, but I don't know how to research on it, anyone know what to type on google or yahoo to find this type of information? I would be a big help! Thanks!!:)
What I Know about Newton so far
He is famous for finding the three laws of movement: The first law is that an object that is still will be still, and an object that is moving will stay moving, unless some force effects the object. The second law is F=ma thing>< forgot. Anyway, the third law is like jumping, when you jump, the force you push into the ground, the same power of the force before will push you back. He is a scientist in the 天才世紀:D That's all I can think of so far.

UN ad: Stop Land Mines
It's great that the UN is trying to get us aware of how dangerous and horrifying land mines are, but they are making up a lame and fake story to tell us that, and it didn't get their point through me, all I thought was that: "I thought the UN could do way better than that". Maybe they are trying to make us feel that land mines could be anywhere, some people in Columbia just stepped ten feet from their front door and was blasted into pieces, examples like that would make it a whole lot effect. But a land mine in the middle of a carefully pruned soccer field!?!? If anyone should step on a land mine there, then it should be the person who took good care of the grass. I think the other reason why the UN decided to shot the scene like this is because some people who are living in places safe from land mines won't care about it( Well, people like me anyway ). Then after the UN get this idea into people's mind, then some people will start to help out, by donating money or some other ways. Anyway, land mines are a serious subject for those countries that have them scattered everywhere, most victims are kids, you can't blame them for picking up something shiny in the ground! Anybody would do so! People should think about cause and effect before they actually do anything, they have to know clearly about whether it would be a threat to anyone in the future or such. We should learn about where these land mine incidents are actually happening, and with the knowledge, we can help them by a lot of ways, or just getting people aware of such thing. We take too much things for granted, some people just want to live, and they are happy just because they have their family beside them, and these people are being blown apart, their family will never be the same again......so sad><

Describe your ideal society that is free from gun violence
My ideal society that is free from gun violence would mean that everyone in that country will have to abide to certain rules and regulations. But, just making laws and rules and nothing else will not help, people who wants the guns or the weapons will still use underground trading and other illegal ways to get them. We need people to know that violence is hurtful and that we should by all means try to prevent it. It's easy to say, but it's a lot harder then it sounds, I know people who has problems with using violence to solve their problems, people like me. I think we need everyone to help, not most, everyone. I think it would be nice to have a society that would take care of each other, and won't use violence against each other.
