Japan's Killer Quake

I watched Japan's Killer Quake the other night on NOVA.

Happy 84th César Chávez

Today I don't have school because it is César Chávez's birthday. He fought for civil rights for migrant workers. He co-founded the National Farm Workers Association in the early 1960s. He help migrant farm workers to become un-invisable and got help to have his organization be the first successful farm workers’ union in the United States. He used principles of non-violence, with strikes and boycotts. He was president of United Farm Workers of America (AFL-CIO) until he died. His role models were Martin Luther King, Gandhi, Nehru, Zapata, Emiliano (all civil right fighters). Califorina, Texas and Colorado are the only states where the schools are closed.

Happy 200th

Robert Wilhelm Eberhard Bunsen (31 March 1811 – 16 August 1899) was a German chemist. He discovered caesium (in 1860) and rubidium (in 1861) with Gustav Kirchhoff. With his laboratory assistant, Peter Desaga, he developed the Bunsen burner, an improvement on the laboratory burners then in use. The Bunsen–Kirchhoff Award for spectroscopy is named after Bunsen and Kirchhoff.

Take Talli Viral


A few days ago I saw a video of my friend's little brother, Talli dancing. It is a JLo song, it only has 80 hits but I'm trying to help it go viral.

BHM


I like BLACK HISTORY MONTH because you celebrate famous black people like Angela Davis and Rosa Parks. I think one of the most important black person is Martin Luther King Jr. he help to stop segregation. If he didn't I would have barely any friends. I like Rosa Parks because she sat at the front of the bus when you were not suppose to because there were signs that say "Negro in the back and white in the front" and she sat in the front. So someone said "Can you move." she said "No." then he went to the bus driver then he came and said "Can you move!" she still said ''No.'' Then the bus driver called the police and they said said ''Can you move'' she still said ''No.''. What I like about that is her bravery and courage to stay seated instead of moving. I like Angela Davis because when I first saw her I thought she was cute. But then I started reading about her and now I think she is awesome!
