Trinity's!

   On March 26th 2011 I went to trinity's It was so quiet until a couple of minutes... Like 50 people came in!!! We later figured out it was a fundraising for cancer. They all wore a black t-shirt. On the back of the t-shirt it had a list of restaurants that they went to and where they will go next. It was such a crowd! Everybody was shouting and yelling and screaming! I Never ever saw any fundraising like that before. There were these two guys with a coach shirt on. They had a whistle hung around there neck. One of the coaches had a mega-phone. After 5 minutes the coach would speak into it. It sure was loud! The thing that's funny about it is you know how people walk and run to raise for cancer? But these guys just ate and drank beer!!!  After 15 minutes they left and got on the fundraising bus. I suspected that they would go to the next bar.

Science Fair

The Science Fair went by! I had to make a compound machine. I had to use 2 or more simple machines. For my project i used 2 inclined planes and a lever. Anyways my machine is called...

M&M-omatic Giver(!!!!!!!!!)

It gives M&Ms! So here is how it works: There is a card board incline which you roll a heavy ball ( Not too heavy like a bowling ball but like a small marble that is pretty heavy). It hits the side of a styrofoam sheet thingy ( that's the lever, for the fulcrum we used a nail and stuck it in a box. When the... ?! Wait! Let me tell you one more thing. On the other side of the styrofoam thing there's a popsicle stick. A string is tied to the stick and the other side of the string is tied to the door. The door by the way is an icebreaker cover which is fixed into a box. So when the ball fall on one side of the lever it will go down and the other side will go up.Now since the side that is up is the side which the stick is in, the stick will go up. The stick will pull the string which will pull the door open. After testing it put M&Ms in the box and try it. FYI you know how I said 2 inclined planes? Well, the other incline is there for the M&Ms. When the M&Ms come out they will roll down the incline. YUM!

Here is how my machine looks like:

The ball is this:

The lever is this:

This is the Box!
