Oil Spill "How Much Oil Has Leaked Into The Gulf of Mexico"

This article tells how oil spilled into the Gulf of Mexico. Thought they don't know how much oil spilled into the water, they just estimated it as being a lot. They figured out that the oil flowed out of the Deepwater Horizon on to the ocean floor around 10am on April 22, 2010. Every since then, it spread. Today, they are trying to get a long tube to run into the ocean floor and suck up all the oil.

Marafet School (Partnership)

We can partner up with the Marefat School if more children from the school engaged in the project. If people were asked to help this school and tell why they should help, people would most likely get involved. The image to side i chosen because I like how the picture shows the connection of the kids seems so happy but really they are struggling but they seems to hide it all with a smile.

Video on STD's Prevention

"People do stupid things-thats what spread HIV" quoted Elizabeth Pisani. She actually had HIV and she believe this quote is actually half true. She said that "some people do stupid things to get HIV and some people do rational things." What she mean by rational is that you were taught to do things to be prevented with an STD but you still go out there and do things unprotected. For example, such as sharing a needle and having sex unprotected. This help me with my idea for STD's prevention because it tells about how some people believe that if condoms were to be given out, then everyone will go out and have sex. But in actually, that is false. So this would be good to be able to point out how schools can give out protection.
