(1/25/2007) I made a power point about the vortex (roller coaster). I also did some of the following for the astronomer's badge. I can hardly imagine me with 7 badges on my sash: the musicion's badge, the photographer's badge, the hiker's badge, the collecter's badge, the artist's badge, the family helpers badge, and the astronomer's badge. When I move to the green six, I might be the one with the most badges in the green six. OH BOY!

(1/24/2007) I went to Telus World Of Science (science center). I was playing on the computer that has hot wheels but then some bigger kids came and were not dividing the turns evenly so I left. The gravity bike was not open. m. Be and A were playing with the ball thing at the end. It was fun FUN FUN!!!. I spent the whole time downstairs. The Lego was cool!

(1/23/2007) I made a power point about Top Gun (roller coaster). I also did ALL THE FOLLOWING FOR THE FAMILY HELPERS BADGE IN CUPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Boy am I excited.
I learned that water in a pot with a lid on it will boil faster than water in a pot without a lid because more heat escapes.

(1/20/2007) I made a roller-coaster about Sheikra. Sheikra is an African hawk. The roller-coaster Sheikra has a 90 degree drop and the Sheikra hawk dives straight down to get its prey. Before the Sheikra roller-coaster goes up the lift it does a U-turn. When it's at the top of the lift, it does another U-turn, and the track holds the train for 3.5 seconds. Then it goes down the vertical drop, up half a loop, and goes back down like a corkscrew. It moves up, and slows down by some block breaks. Then it goes down another drop, but this time the track doesn't hold it, and it has only an 81 degree drop. Then it goes through a tunnel full of mist. When it's out, it does an over-banked turn, and goes over some water but at the rear of the train it squirts water from the rear. Then it does a 180 degree helix and slowed down by magnetic brakes and returns back into the station.

(18/1/2007) I made a power point about Millenium Force. I learned that a hyper coaster is a roller coaster with a height somewhere from 200 feet to 299 feet. Then there is Giga Coaster (like Millunium Force) Its height has to be somewhere from 300 feet to 399 feet. Then there's Strata Coaster. Its height has to be from 400 feet to 499 feet. Note: Kingda Ka and Top Thrill Dragster are the only strata coasters.

(1/5/2007) I made a powerpoint about the Loch Ness Monster (roller coaser). This is what I wrote.
The loch ness monster is a corkscrew roller coaster in Busch Gardens Europe. It has two interlocking loops, an enclosed helix, and two lift hills. First it goes down a little drop and banking a 180 degree helix turning right. Then it goes up a lift. After that another little drop. It goes on a tight turn just before going down the freefall that goes over water. Then it goes on the top loop of the interlocking loops. Then up half a hill. Then it banks and turns and drops. Then it goes over the other loop in the interlocking loops. After that an on-ride photo is taken. After that up a hill (with the second lift), down a helix (through a tunnel), brakes back to station. It opened in 1978. It was designed by Ron Toomer. The drop is 144 feet high. The max speed is 60 mph (96.6 km/h). It has two inversions. The duration is 2:10. The max vertical angle is 55 degrees. The max g force is 3.5.
