Zombie Parkour - The Flipping Dead

Gabriel & Tre's Stuff & Things

Today was a day that every 5th grader sold something they owned, it' called  Market Day. Every year this happens; the way it works is that all the 5th graders set up a stand and sell toys or food for lower graders. A friend of mine at school named Tre worked with me. We are really good friends, so we worked together. Since we were partners we have to split the money, if it was just me I would get it all for my self but, I didn't. I'm grateful that I had a partner, it doesn't matter how much money I get. I JUST FELT GRATEFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What we sold was caramel corn, root beer floats, bouncy balls, dolls (Tre has a little sister), a toy pig,  and a toy car. I found out that we had dry ice to keep the ice cream cold. Tre and I kept sticking our hand in the cooler were the ice cream was and we kept burning ourselves. When ever I stuck my hand in there I felt an area were it was dry. Then I started digging through the ice then I found dry ice.

Wave Energy Science Project

Wave Energy project at Chabot Space and Science Center

This year for the OUSD Science Fair, I made a generator using electromagnetic induction for my project. The process was discovered by a guy named Michael Faraday.  I built my Wave Energy project by having a neodymium magnet go side to side in a tube wrapped with copper wire. I built two, one was about 3ft in length and 2.5ft in width with a mast that was about 6 feet tall.  That was the one I tested in the pool. I generated about 3.12 volts from that one.  The other one was a scaled down version that I used to demo at Chabot. We, me and my Dad, goofed around so it took about 3-4 weeks to build both models. But I won "Most Popular Project"; I was one of the five students picked to have their project displayed at Chabot Space and Science Center and I received a medal. People had lots of questions. Mostly "What is it?" and or "What does it do?". I also taught a high school science teacher about electromagnetic induction; she never knew about it. She said she has been working as a science teacher for 4 years.

MINECRAFT

Everybody knows about Minecraft. My friend Rohan told me to download multi player so he and I could play together. I want to buy it but I keep forgetting to ask. It looks fun. It's hard with all the creepers following you. Creepers are a kind of monster that blows up when you find diamonds. There are also skeletons with bow and arrow that ride spiders that attack you, zombies, enderman (basically slender man), chickens, dog, girl friends, cows, sheep, squids, lava, water, sand, apples, pigs, rain, stars, clouds, the moon, the sun, you know stuff that already exists. You also have TNT just to blow things up. And I insist you to play it, it's so awesome.
 

Last month, the Museum of Art and Digital Entertainment (MADE), a video game museum in Oakland  recreated Oakland in Minecraft as part of an exhibit at the Oakland Museum of California (OMCA).

 

I found a t-shirt on J!nk  of a creepers anatomy , and yes it's on a girl's shirt, but it only comes in men's.

Also last week Minecraft creator Markus "Notch" Persson released his latest browser-based game Drop.

M.I.T. - Invisible Motion in Video

This video explains the future motion magnification technology. It can be used in the future in the field of medical technology. You could see were a person is damage and touch them as little as possible. It can even be used on old movie clips. This can also help people if they have a new born to see if they're still breathing. Technology is starting to get really better and better.

IT"S FRIDAY!!!!
