Answer

Hi people!
I guess you haven't yet got the answer to the post a submitted a few weeks ago? Well, if you forgot about it, click here to give it a try.


The answer is..................

BUGS BUNNY!!!

How:

1st Clue: happy rabbit is the nickname of Bugs.

2nd Clue: I scrambled the name BUGS BUNNY

3rd Clue: Fill in the blanks of BUGS BUNNY

4th Clue: I scrambled the saying: What's Up Doc? which is Bugs Bunny's Motto.

And now, for your next puzzle, I will give clues, you have to find out who this is:


He gave up war.
He is a he, not a she.
He became a buddhist, after seeing the sorrow he caused.
He came from India.
A film was made in his honour.
His sign is a lion.

Can you guess?

Answer tomorrow.
Oh yeah, and if you want to answer, leave comment.

uh, sorry!

Hello Nature-lovers,
My apologies for the lack of posts in quite a bit.
Oh, the work!!! I've been very busy with Ramadhan, the holy month of fasting for Muslims. This time, I hope to keep fasting the whole month, because our school is closed. An extra long vacation! But fear not, because I'm back on track to keep posting!
And later today I shall post a tutorial on how to make an recycled origami bin!
(It does count as eco friendly coz' it's........NOPE! surprise ya!)

Plankton

As you might know, plankton is the first item in the food chain, if you want to know more, here is a Wikipedia extract:

"Plankton are any drifting organisms (animals, plants, archaea, or bacteria) that inhabit the pelagic zone of oceans, seas, or bodies of fresh water. Plankton are defined by their ecological niche rather than phylogenetic or taxonomic classification. They provide a crucial source of food to larger, more familiar aquatic organisms such as fish and cetacea."

Simpler form by me:

Plankton are any small drifting stuff that live in the deeper parts of the oceans, seas and lakes. They provide food for more other bigger fishes and the whales.



Plankton is getting extinct! (I read it in the papers, SCIENCE LIFE)

Recycled Giftbows

Hey, hey heyyyyyy R.F Kid here! And boy, I found this totally cool tutorial at www.howaboutorange.blogspot.com ! Jessica is very passionate about the environment like me, she loves to recycle stuff! Othere highlights at her blog includes: Fabric Panel Wall Art and Recycled magazine Coasters. Please do visit her blog! I placed the "Giftbow" tutorial, so you don't have to search or something.! Thanks Jessica!




In gift wrap emergencies when you've got the present but need some wrapping, here's an idea for turning a magazine page into a bow. (There may be better ways to stick this thing together, but I used what I had on hand: staples and adhesive glue dots. Double stick tape should work, too.)




Cut a magazine page lengthwise into 9 strips, 3/4" wide. Leave 3 of the strips full length. Cut one inch off 3 of the strips. Cut two inches off 2 of the strips. Cut the last strip down to 3 1/2" long.



Twist each strip to form a loop at both ends and staple it in the center. Shape the last, short strip into a circle and secure it with a glue dot.



Layer the 3 longest pieces on top of each other, spacing them evenly and securing each with a glue dot. Add the next two groups of pieces, doing the same. And finally, stick the loop into the center.



Use other papers, like a map of your city. Here's Chicagoland. Anybody see your street?

Rat, bat, cat: We've got em' all!

Strange things happen in our household. Especially animals. Here are a few stuff which came in our home in the past few years upto yesterday:

  • A rat
  • A monkey
  • An eagle
  • A crow
  • A moth-like creature
  • A bat
  • The baby of a bat
  • A sparrow
  • A lizard
  • A cockroach (A lot of cockroaches, actually)
See that, anything can happen. Only yesterday a rat came. Oh, I do feel sorry for the guy. My parents attempted to kill the rat. I was so sad. Thankfully, it escaped. So we didn't have to kill it!

P.S first time a rat came in our home

P.S.S Lizards are very common in households where I live
