Trivia!

Hey Guys,
I'm sorry for not blogging, I tried to, but my computer won't let me. I just managed roughly now. Like I said, my computer has been acting sooo strangely! I'm trying to mend it. I hope it will be mended soon.

Anyway, I prepared a trivia on the subject : Nature
I bet you guys didn't know any of these things!

  • The Earth's plates move between  2-20 cm (0.75-7.75 in) per year- the rate which fingernails grow
  • From the ground, the Earth's surface may look bumpy, but if the Earth was reduced to a 1 m ball, Mt. Everest would look like a pimple no more than 0.69 mm high!
  • The Earth is not the only object which has earthquakes, the moon does too! These are called "Moonquakes".
  • The Caspian Sea was once a sea. (It is a lake now) It was cut off from the Mediterranean sea during the last Ice Age.
  • More people drown in deserts than die of thirst! When rain suddenly falls, dry river-beds can turn into gushing rivers in just a few minutes.
  • You can predict rain with a piece of seaweed- Hang it outside. If it feels sticky, rain is on the way.
  • The squirting cucumber spreads seeds by exploding under high pressure, showering seeds.
  • The most valuable fungus is the White Truffle. It is 5 times more expensive than silver!
  • The name volcano comes from "Vulcan", the Roman god of fire and metalwork.
  • Around 30 per cent of the Earth's land surface is forested.

Wasn't that a whizz? Just remember this: The more we know, the more we grow! Be sure to comment about your likes, hates, tips, tricks, ratings, bloopers and anything else. If I get enough positive responses, I'll continue trivias like this quite often on other subjects.

I AM BACK PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi friends,
it feels good to be back! All the examinations are finished, holiday started, and I'm back to blogging! And woah, Razz berry, you sure answered lots of questions. Thanks for taking over for the time, a very special thank you from me. And by the way, I will sure post some goodies on Christmas, just see! (Although they won't be eco friendly, some of them, I'll try my best, though. You can't get enough eco friendly stuff on Christmas, you know) In other news, thanks to these people who emailed me regarding how much they recycle:

Sara Caesar
Tyler Smith
Kai Martin

They told me how much they enjoy doing for the environment, and sent goodbyes. Oh, others who don't know my addy, here:

Handfuls!!!

OK, sorry for not posting for a while.

Here's my doings lately:

  • Exam has started, busy with studies (Algebra, anyone?)
  • So cold, I can hardly move from the quilt!
  • Helping my Mom with the household chores she's very busy lately.
So don't you think that's a lot to juggle? I'm taking a short break, which might last for two weeks, but don't worry, it will be over sooner than you think! For the time being, all comments will be checked by Razz berry, my new assistant! Oh, one more thing. This is open session, which means you can ask queries in the comments. (I mean that it works faster then the Ask Samreen page) All of them, I repeat, all of them will be replied by Razz berry.



   Until two weeks,

            Ta-ta!

Hey, this is R.F Kid. Tarmac, our latest winner wrote this:

George is a 10 year old boy who has gone to have a picnic with his Mom, Dad, dog Harry and little sister Emily. They had their food and they put the in the dustbin. Every Harry helped by eating up the crumbs around the place. Harry did NOT poo. Emily watered the plants from the water in her flask. When George almost stepped on an ant, Mom cried, "DON'T!" and George didn't. A deer came and Dad petted it and gave it a leftover cookie. The family was very happy.

The topic for today's community

Okay, the topic is, this time, for a zing, I decided to write a brainstorm.

George is a 10 year old boy who has gone to have a picnic with his mom, dad, dog Harry and little sister Emily. They had their juice and sandwiches and apples. Now they are throwing the cans, plastic, foil and apple cores away in the field although their is a dustbin nearby. Harry pooed in the hollow of a tree. Emily picked flowers from the bushes.George stepped on the little bugs and creatures. Mum and Dad saw what was happening but didn't say anything. Dad suddenly stoned a deer that came by. Mum encouraged him and shouted, "Way to go! Look, there's another one! Stone her!" 

Do YOU think what they did is right? Do YOU think you can change it for the better? YOU have to rewrite this paragraph in a nicer, environment friendly way.

Winner:.... Anonymous?

Heya Anonymous,

I think your view is very good, but really, you should have mentioned your name. And it applies for everyone. If you want to write something that regards me posting, please INCLUDE YOUR NAME.

any ways, I chose another person since he is anonymous.......

Impressed!!!!

Woah, you guys should enter a debate. Awesome! Anyways, look who won:




Linzy said...Hi, I'm Linzy from Canada and I'm answering this Q.

Positive point:

People are getting what they need to survive such as, clothes, homes, houses, and other minerals. But personally, I think its' becoming to excessive. We don't need SO many houses. And rings of gold and precious gems are useless. They don't help us. Moreover, people became greedy over the last few centuries.


Negative point: Although it's helping us a lot, no one cares to think about what is the fate of the planet. But, let people do as they want. The plants and trees will come back to haunt the human race. Like the trees grow, the water will become dirty so no drinking water is available and so on.


Thanks.
(*Takes bow*)

Out of these, which do you do the most?
