What's for lunch today?
by:Ricky, Anthony, Edward

FRIDAY JANUARY 8,2010
Ricky, Anthony and Edward went undercover for you guys to see what the cafeteria workers were preparing. It seem like a quiet place, maybe a little to quiet. When we entered we encountered the manager and we had some questions for her. Here's how it went.
"Mam, we got some questions for you. First of all what is your name?"
Like a lady she answered, "Ms. Davis"
"When do you start preparing today's' food?"
"We prepare the food a day before but we don't cook it until the day we serve the food."
"What is your job around here?"
"I supervise, order the food, discipline the workers, meetings, and talk to the principal" she answered.
"Where do you keep the food"
"In the freezer storage"
"Who's the head cook?" we continued
"Ms. Vasquez and the minor jobs we rotate so that it won't get boring" Then for our final question we got them real good we asked them,"Do you add anything special to the food?" There's where the manager got quiet and there was silence for a minute. Finally she responded "It's a secret, we follow the recipe." Anyways they gave us the the menu for February.

Undone By Brooke Taylor

By: Ashley, Julia, and Diana

We are reading this book named, Undone. This book is about two girls who used to be different because one of the girls is like a "fallen angel" and the other one is a computer geek. The computer geek is Serena and she creates video games. The other girl is Kori and she is the "fallen angel". Serena idolizes Kori and when they finally become friends it is so weird how they do!!! But the amazing thing is that the story takes a whole new turn and so does Serena this book because it is awesome!!!! Also Ms. Murphy recommends this t o. I recommend OK because it gets really good in some part of the book. She says, "Undone is one of my favorite books of all time. The friendship between the girls is really intense, and both of them are incredibly cool and like able." You will know if you read it!!!

Why is the Computer So Addicting?

By: Nia and Oscar

We all know about the Internet but why is it so addicting?
People like it because of gaming, Myspace,Youtube,twitter,Facebook, and aim which are sites used to talk to your friends.
But what is it that attracts the human mind to these websites? Is it aliens trying to invade them? No. Whatever it is, it's very addictive and some of us can't go a day without using the computer.Maybe it's because you can play games on websites like y8, mini clips, and crazy monkey games.com. Or maybe teenagers just don't have anything better to do with their lives now a days.Maybe female/male teenagers like talking with their boyfriends/girlfriends or friends on Myspace, twitter, and Facebook. Some people are on these sites so frequently that they have over 1,000 friends(some of us refer to these kinds of people as Myspace freaks,etc.).There are some dangers to the world of Myspace and other social websites.

WARNINGS:

1. There are some sex offenders online that disguise themselves as teenagers.

2. There are serial killers to be aware of.

3. You could be talking to a stalker.

4. You talking to an over aged person but you wouldn't know that

SO BEWARE OF WHO YOU ARE TALKING TO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dogs 101 by Martina

The Bearded Collie

Family: livestock, herding

Area of Origin: Scotland

Date of Origin: 1800s

Original Function: sheep herding

Today's Function: herding trials

Avg Size of male: Height: 21-22 Weight: 45-55

Avg Size of Female: Height: 20-21 Weight: 45-55

Other Name: none

History:

The bearded collie probably originated from the central European Magyar komondor or lowland Polish sheepdog. In fact, records show that in 1514 two lowland Polish sheepdogs were brought to Scotland by Polish traders. Although dogs strongly resembling bearded collies are depicted in art dating from the 18th century, hard evidence of the breed cannot be found until the early-19th century, when the first breed description was published. These dogs were tireless herders of sheep and drovers of cattle over rough terrain in the cold Scottish mists. Long popular as a herding dog in Scotland, after the Victorian era the breed also gained favor as a show dog. Two strains, the border strain, which was brown and white with a slightly wavy coat, and the Highland strain, which had a gray and white coat, have since been interbred and merged into one breed. After World War I, the "beardie" was once again bred solely for work. Their value as stock dogs made it difficult for outsiders to acquire one from their shepherd owners. Eventually, however, a few breeders interested in showing beardies were able to bring some dogs to England and then to America. The AKC recognized the breed in 1977. It has since become a prominent show dog and continues as a capable herder, although it is more popular as a competitor in herding trials than as an actual working dog.

Temperament:

The boisterous beardie is lively and playful, full of enthusiasm and energy. It is smart and obedient, but it is an independent thinker with a clownish sense of humor. It likes children, but it may be too rambunctious for small children and may try to herd them when playing.

Upkeep;

This active dog needs either a good jog, a very long walk or a vigorous play session every day. It especially enjoys herding. The beardie can live outside in cool climates, but it is happier when allowed access to the house with its family. Its long coat needs brushing or combing every other day.

Health:

• Major concerns: none

• Minor concerns: CHD, epilepsy, colonic disease, pemphigus

• Occasionally seen: CHD, aortic stenosis, PRA, PPM, cataract, VWD

• Suggested tests: hip, (eye), (cardiac)

• Life span: 12 – 14 years

Form and Function:

The beardie is a medium-sized dog with a long, lean, strongly made body, which gives the impression of both strength and agility. Its gait is supple and powerful, with good reach and drive. The ability to make sharp turns, quick starts and sudden stops is essential in a sheep-herding breed, and the beardie must be able to keep this activity up for a long period of time under all conditions. Its coat is double with a soft, furry undercoat. The outer coat is flat, harsh and fairly straight; it is sufficient to protect the dog but not so much as to obscure the dog's lines. The beardie's expression is bright and inquiring.
