What Is Your Culture?
Well I am Polish, Hungarian, German, Swedish, and Norwegian. I do not do anything for any of those cultures. But you can have special traditions, beliefs, clothing, food, holidays, and languages. Some of my culture traditions are Christmas my family makes big supper. We also celebrate Christmas, Halloween, Easter, Valentines day, St. Patrick’s, etc. Like if you Ukrainian for a tradition food you might eat lots of perogies. Like if you were Jewish for Christmas you might celebrate Hanukkah. If you were from China you would speak Chinese instead of English. If you were Sikh you might wear a turban. If you were Christian you would believe in Jesus. All of those nationalities have to do with something like beliefs, holidays, etc.
What I Learned
What I know know about global warming that that I didn’t before all that research is I learned a lot about Biodiesel and bio fuel. What I learned about biodiesel and bio fuel is that it comes from grains, oil seeds and animal fats. Over 100 cites in Canada use bio fuels already. That you can put a small amount of bio fuel in a vehicle but if you get the special part in your vehicle you can put in all bio fuel. I also learned that in the United states 2% of their energy is from solar panels. I learned that over 1000 smart cars and over 4500 hybrids sold from June in 2006. That energy efficient appliances like light bulbs, washing machines, dishwasher, etc, they save up to 50$ of the energy then normal appliances use, save you money, save thousand of tonnes of greenhouse gases. Sold over 5000 appliances. From it getting a lot warmer there will be a lot more mosquitoes around and with all the mosquitoes there will be diseases. That 90 percent of carbon dioxide is from north America, Europe, Asia. That is all the information that I didn’t know before I did all that research.
Success in Life
What I think success is having a good job that you like and getting lots of money. To have a good family and good house. Or when you get older have a wife, kids, and a house. To have lots of money and have most of the things that you want like if you want a truck to have enough money to go out and buy one. Also success is when you accomplish your goals. If you wanted to make a goal like buy a big house when you are older and you do buy a big house that would be success. Having a successful life is being happy, having money, good family, and good job. You can also be sucessful by having a good education. I think my uncle is a very successful person beucase he is a very happy person, has lots and lots of money, he has one daughter, and he has a good job that he likes. Why he is so successful is because he tries so hard in life and he has a good job. There is lots of ways to make a successful life but those are some some of the ways.

How I got my Information
There were a lot of ways that I got my information. Some of the ways that I got my information was I went on Google and just typed in global warming. There was a lot of information but I picked a few pages and just got my information from there. I also got some from other people. What I did was when I was on those pages from Google on some of them at the bottom or the top there was an email address to talk to the people that wrote all the information. So I got there email and sent them emails, each person I asked about 1 or 2 questions. Then they would sent them back and that was an other way to get it. There was also an other way that I got some emails Mr. Fisher (my teacher) told me some people’s emails addresses and then I sent a email to the person and asked questions. Then they sent them back and got more information. I also got a bit from some books at the library. You can also get information from rss and technorati. Rss is a thing that when other people write things about what you are subscribing like Global warming. When they write an other blog post it will go on you IGoogle page. Technorati is you can go there and see a lot of blogs about your topic to get information. I got some from Mr. Fisher and some from other class mates in my class that were doing global warming too. Those were the ways that I got my information.
Biking and Skdooing
This is all me on the bike hitting the jumps, doing the catwalks, and on the skidoo.
New Dirtbike Gear
I just got new dirtbiking gear I got a new fox jersey it is a blue Yamaha fox jersey. It matches with my dirtbike. I also got new gloves too for when i go dirtbiking. They are blue Yamaha fox gloves.
Dirt biking
In the summer time I like to go dirt biking. I go dirt biking at the dunes. When I am at the dunes I sometimes hit some jumps. The biggest I have ever hit was about 3 feet. The front of the dirt bike went straight up in the air but the back tire only went about 1 foot in the air. When I landed I did a short catwalk too man it was sweet. I also hit jumps in the summer on my peddle bike too. I really cant wait until summer to go dirt biking again, because it is really fun to just go out when ever and go riding. The one thing that I do not like about my dirt bike is that it is only a 100cc I want like a 150 or so because they are the full size and mine is just the medium size. Well I just cant wait until summer to go riding.
At my sister house
On my spring break coming up I am going to my sister’s house. I think it is really fun there. What I usually do there is I go ski-dooing on my sisters fire-cat 700. It is really sweet and when I was driving it I was going 170 kms. Also Chris my sister’s boyfriend took out his fire-cat 900. It was really sweet. I also went bowling there too. I beat my sister and her boyfriend because I am a lot better at bowling than them. It was really fun I also watched a lot of movies there and played a lot of play station. So I cant wait until spring break to go back there.
Science Fair
This week we are doing science fair. What I am doing in my science fair project is which popcorn pops the most percent. What we did was put in three different types of popcorn in the microwave then counted the ones that were popped and ones that were not popped. The three types of popcorn that we tried was Orville Redenbachers, Act 11, and Pop Weaver. We found out that Act 11 is the best of the three for the percents.
