Is That Mold?? Or Dew??



Mold is formed up of mold spores, and mold spores can be found living on almost every surface in a building. Now as long as they do not become airborne then we should have no problem. Mold should not form in a building unless there is a moisture problem. If I were you reading thins I would get the moisture content in your house or apartment so you don not get mold. Believe it or not you can be allergic to mold. My dear old neighbor was allergic to the mold in her house and died a few years ago from it. Now for all those who have wondered about the dew in the morning well here is the answer. "Water will condense into droplets depending on the temperature. The temperature at which droplets can form is called the Dew Point. When surface temperature drops, eventually reaching the dew point, atmospheric water vapor condenses to form small droplets on the surface. This process distinguishes dew from those hydrometers (meteorological occurrences of water) which are formed directly in air cooling to its dew point (typically around condensation nuclei) such as fog or clouds. The thermodynamic principles of formation, however, are virtually the same".

Vandalism


The list below will be eleven acts of vandalism and I will list them in order from worst to not so worst. Now don't get me wrong vandalism is bad and should not go UN-treated. I chose to put them in this order because I admit I have done some of these. The are at the bottom not the too because even though they are not that major they still are vandalism.

1. I would say that setting a school on fire would be the most harmful because you are endangering the lives of thousands of people depending on how big the school is and who wants to hurt children?? or anyone????

2. Putting a stone on a railroad track is a tie between first and second because you are still endangering the lives of people.

3. Damaging a phone box could be bad in the case that if there is an accident and you are out of cell range then it could be a long time until you can get saved.

4. Breaking glass at a bus shelter and damaging the seats on a bus are the same for me because you are damaging things that belong to the same company.

5. Graffiti is a huge epidemic but the only thing I see wrong with it is that it makes a building look tacky.

6. Throwing eggs at a car/house and breaking a street light are also in the same category for me because they are just stupid and people can break a street light with an egg.

7. Again a group one would be littering and breaking a park bench because you find garbage in a park.

8. Last but not least I would say that putting soap in a fountain is the least dangerous because I feel it is just stupid, but I have done it so I can't say that I have not.

Those are my rants and raves on the topic so I agree vandalism is stupid, but everyone does it at some point in there life.

Distruction

I feel that destruction is caused by stupid people pissing me off or other people. I feel it draws people in because it is so fun to watch and to join in on. Destruction can be more than just breaking something, but someone. what I mean by this is that you can destroy someone by telling them there fat, ugly, stupid anything to make a person get mad. So besides the fact that destruction and fight is fun to watch and join in on, it is also a great way to relive anger as long as it is like on a pillow, brick wall, the ground,etc... Now I know it may look like I am contradicting myself on this topic, but I am not.

A World With No Rules


I would love a world with nor rules to an extent. I say this because I would love to be able to drive now and not have to wait until I am 18. I am able to get my license now but my moms incurence would go up, so without rules there would be no inceurense therefore license for me. But I would also hate it because after a while it would justget boring and lame.....

If Children Ruled The World


Well as most people might think the world would be horrid, I feel that it could be okay. I say this because not every person is a bad person, but there is always a bad person. In my oppinion Bush is a child at heart as for most of us and he is able to rule the world. So why can't a real kid??? I would say the only bad aprt about it would be the children going off to war. That is what the picture is a child dressed as a man in war.

Viruses


Summary: Viruses are non-living particles around half to maybe a hundredth the size of the smallest bacteria partical. Its disease causing, a protein-based particle that includes DNA or RNA code in it's insides.
A virus is unable to reproduce outside a host cell. They are often named for the disease in which they cause. They are considered non-living mainly because they do not fit the criteria to have the definition life. But the subject whether they are really living or non living organisms is often argued.


Reproduction: A single virus particle lacks needed components that cells need to reproduce. Viruses cannot express their genes or reproduce unless they have the help of a living cell. As soon as a virus has infected a cell it will controll the cells ribosomes, enzymes and much of
the cellular machinery to help it reproduce.


Disease:
Influenza: This is a horrible virus that can in the end of not cared for can kill you. Influenza is commonly called the flu and is a RNA virus. To get an idea of how many people the flue kills well... Flu spreads around the world in seasonal epidemics, killing millions of people. Wow that is a lot. Some ways to prevent getting the flu include, frequent hand washing, and even using those seat protecters in a public bathroom. You can also refrain from giving any one the virus by covering your cough, but in doing so along with your sneezes use you sleeve not your hands, if you are needed in work then use one of those maskes you can get from the doctor, and last but not least use the meds you are givin by your doctor as well. It is a know fact that is you use antibiotics when you do not need them then they will not work when you do need them.

McKinley Reflection


I went on a Field trip with my class to film the third graders as the performed the commercials the wrote. I had a great time the first day mainly because the kids were so much fun to talk to and easy to interact with. My group from that day were filming a race and were advertising a pair of shoes that they thought made him super fast. The first half of the second day was great. The kids went into a show store and wanted the new pair of shoes but they were to expensive. But little did they know there was the same type of shoe made by a different company that was a lot cheaper so the costumers bought those ones. The reason I said the first half was because I did not get to finish the second half because it was really cold out side and I did not have a coat. Now when I went inside I got to have a student read to me and that was a lot of fun. Well if your smart enough to catch on you will realize that the whole two days of filming we were filming commercials about shoes and I loved that because i love shoes.

If Animals Could Talk


Well animals have there own way of communicating, but what if they spoke English. That would be amazing. I would talk to a penguin because that is my favorite animal. I would ask one what there name was first. Then I would get into what they like to do in there spare time and if I could join them. I have no clue why they are my favorite animals, but the are just so cute. I am not sure where I am going with this but Penguins are my favorite animals and if it was possible I would marry a penguin But that would be weird.....( And no I do not believe in beastiality).

Space Living


I love the cartoon the Jetsons. Even though it took place in the feature not in space I feel we would live like them in space. The thing I loved about them was the way there family worked together. I want a robot and in space i could have one. We would all have hover crafts and everything would be at the touch of a button. Yea for me no more cooking...!!! We would all l ive in big houses that is to big to think of. Money would not be a big deal. Everone would be nice to everyone. no matter what. That is what I think space would be like if we lived there. JUST LIKE THE JETSONS!!!!!!!!! I think I would mainly want the space animals like Astro. I was not able to get the song yet but I do have the lyrics below for now.

Meet George Jetson.
His Boy Elroy.
Daughter Judy.
Jane his wife.

The Best Advice Given To Me So Far


So I just found out that the guy I grew up calling dad is not my biological father. The advice that I got out if this is that I should let my biological father into my life. Because the only reason he is not in my life is because he did drugs s my mom left him. So I am going to take the advice and I am going to meet him sometime this week, But I guess that the main phrase of this would be, "Don't shut someone out of your life until you know there side if the story. The picture above is my biological father.
