**Hurricane Katrina, December 2005** Hurricane Katrina was on record of one of the worst world natural disasters in history. It had serious flooding in New Orleans due to levee failure. It formed itself in the Bahamas and moved northwest. It send a 93 mph gust to Virginia. As Hurricane Katrina moved over the Gulf of Mexico, it strengthened itself into a category 5 hurricane with top sustained winds of 175 mph.

Freak the Mighty is about two boys who make up a team. Freak, is Kevin. He is the one with the brain. He knows good vocabulary and how to get out of situations fast. His teammate, Max, has a learning disability. He can't learn well. Freak sits on Max whenever they go out on a quest together. Freak is very short, and Max is very big. So Freak sits on Max's shoulder so they can run faster.
 * Freak the Mighty**

Freak has a dream that he will be the first person to have a robotic body. Max doesn't want him to. **** Later on in the book becomes harder. Freak has been having a lot more stokes, and has been to the hospital at least 2 times. Soon, when Freak has his last stroke, he dies in the hospital. Max is very upset because that was his only friend he had.

This book is about courage, braveness, and friendship as they both go through times of trouble. I recommend this book to anyone who likes action.



Many people believe that there is a creature out there in the wilderness unkown. We call it big foot, or sasquatch. From what scientist show, big foot looks like a link from a human and an ape. they believe it has huge feet and is very tall itself. people search in Ohio, Oregon and other place for the creature. People think that Bigfoot is very very hairy, and really big. Some people think that Sasquatch is visous creature, others believe that it's a nice creature and is harmless.

This one man, quoted, “I could distinctly see three large black figures. I would estimate the largest one to be between eight or nine feet. I could very plainly see they were upright on two legs and…during that entire time, all three of them were standing on two legs. Another sergeant walked up to me and said, ‘Neiss, did you see what I saw down at that second rock port?’ And, not to be a fool, I said, ‘Well, I don’t know, what’d you see?’ He followed with, ‘Well lack for a better word, what I saw were three, large, hair-covered, big feet.’”

Some poeple claim they saw big foot, but they never have any proof. Some people even dress up in costumes that look like it to get money. No one knows really if Sasquatch, a.k.a big foot exsists, so until then, it's a mystery.

**Pollution at the ends of the Earth**

Toxic chemicals have surprisingly finding their way to the Artic. They gushed out of cities and factories thousands of miles away! Kuujjuaq is in the Canadian Arctic and you can only get there by boat or plane. The people in Kuujjuaq have chemicals in their bodies. No one knows how bad it's full effect is, but it may be hurting children slowly and silently. These chemicals can cause new born babies to get sick, or to make children do bad in school.

In more than 5 years, more than 10 million tons of POPs have probably floated through the skies to the Arctic. If those chemicals were piled on an area the size of a regular football field, the pile would rise 700 meters high in the air even more taller than the tallest building on Earth. Pollution is going everywhere, even in the most beautiful places on Earth, causing it to be the most ugliest place on Earth. Help save the earth. Stop pollution.



The American public is losing its patience with President Obama over his handling of the Gulf Coast oil spill. Since five weeks past the explosion on Deep-water Horizon rig left oil everywhere in the Gulf of Mexico. According to the poll, 53 percent rate Obama's handling "poor" or "very poor"; 43 percent believe Obama is doing a good job. But, the poll also finds that the public tends to blame others in the mess more than it blames the White House.

The oil is killing the ocean life. But with the leak still unplugged and the economic and environmental impact only getting even worse than before, the White House has come under fire for not doing enough to handle the cleanup and control the spill. 63 percent of Democrats believe Obama is doing a "good" job on the spill, while 68 percent of Republicans rate the president's job as "poor." This spill keeps getting worse, making the environment worse. Will it make the public more angry with Obama? Or more assured hes doing a good job?



Many people in Africa are poor, helpless people. It doesn't help when you have millions of mosquitoes flying around you, and killing your people. Many mosquitoes in Africa carry the disease Malaria. Malaria infects between 300 million and 500 million people every year. Mostly in Africa. Malaria kills more African children than any other disease.

People who have less protection in their bodies of their immune system is more likely to be bitten. For example, children and pregnant woman. Children who survive episodes of server Malaria may develop learning disabilities and brain damage. Malaria kills many people every year, and people volunteer to give them mosquito nets. People sleep in the net so that mosquitoes cant come in. So let's all help with mosquitoes. Help people in Africa survive.

UNO!!

Here's how the card game Uno works. So if you get a pack of Uno cards there's 108 cards together. Choose a person to hand out one card to each person and whoever has the highest number on their card gets to be the real dealer for the game. The dealer than gives out 7 cards to each person and puts the remaining in the middle as the draw pile. Turn over one card from the draw pile to make the discard pile. When it's your turn, place one of your cards on the discard pile. Your card must have the same number, color or wording as the top card of the discard pile - or be a wild card. If you don't have the same color, number, or wording, draw a card from the pile until you get one with the same color, number, or wording.

If you get a card called the wild card (it has all 4 colors, red, blue, green, and yellow) than you get to put it down and you get to pick whatever color people have to put down, according to the most colors you have because the point of the game is to have no cards left. If you have one card left, than you say Uno! But if you don't say Uno, and the other players catch you, than you have to pick up two cards from the draw pile. Whoever finishes with no cards wins! You can play up to ten people! This game is very fun and exciting but remember...don't forget to say Uno!
