Federalism vs Unitary

Federalism vs Unitary Federations and unitary states are different types of states. What's the difference? Federations Federations have federalism which is obvious enough. So what happens in federalism. It is when the central nor the regional governments are supreme. The central government has control of some laws and the regional government is in control some other laws. One example of a federalism state is America. Unitary  Unitary states are much different from federations. Instead of the regional and the central government having the same power the central government is supreme. The central government does most of the laws while the regional governments only does few laws.

Robin Hood

Robin hood is remembered as that one archer who steals from the rich to give to the poor. Although people think he is a fictional character there is proof that he really exists. In england a tombstone says: Here underneath this little stone Lies Robert, Earl of Huntingdon Ne'er archer was as he so good And people call him Robin Hood Such outlaws as he and his men Will england never see again.                        1247 There are lots of information we get from this tombstone. For example it states that his real name isis Robert and was nicknamed Robin Hood. It also says he was a good archer and was an outlaw. Although stories suggest him stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, we don't have proof if he really does.

Electromagnetism

Electricity could create magnetism, this is called electromagnetism. Electromagnets can be created by wrapping a wire around an iron nail and connecting it to a battery. If you do decide to do this you might want to wear gloves because the battery could get very hot. Electromagnets function stick to metal just like normal magnets. You could also change how strong an electro magnet attracts by using more voltage.  You could also do the opposite and generate electricity through magnets, this is called electromagnetic induction.  Electro magnets are very useful in our daily lives. Electromagnets are used in a lot of electrical devices. Electric motors and generators both use electromagnets to do convert energy. Another example is a school bell. When electricity goes to the school bell the thing that hits the bell is attracted by an electromagnet to hit the bell.

Buoyancy

Buoyancy is the tendency for something to float. When something is on water it displaces an amount of water. Have you ever tried throwing a rock in water. If you did you most definitely know that it's will sink. However if you try putting a paper boat on water it floats. How come? Well, if you check how much the water displaced weighs and how much the paper boat weighs you would see they're almost equal. Which determines why the paper boat floats. If you weigh a rock though and how much the water displaced weighs, you would see the rock weighs more.

My New Guitar

Yesterday I had a hard time sleeping. I would occasionally wake up in the middle of the night. For what reason? Since my dad bought me a guitar that I could see tomorrow (which is today). My mom and dad thought I needed a guitar upgrade. The new guitar was shiny and cool. My dad said that I should take care of my new guitar (unlike the previous ones). It even has a guitar strap with spongebob designs... Nevertheless I like this new guitar, I planing on learning how to do "Perfect" by Ed Sheeran. I might even teach my little brother a song in my old guitar. I have to perform with my guitar in a wedding a few days from now. I feel a little embarrassed performing with a guitar on a spongebob strap though, but at least I'm not a triangle player.

after the bike accident...

Previously... I was thrown off my bike. Then I remember my bike on the ground with pain in my shoulder, knees, and face. When I attempted that bike stunt I sort of felt like a fool. That bike accident was probably the worst accident I've experienced. I was left with wounds on my nose, knee, and shoulder. The wounds on my nose sort of looks bad. I even attempted to peel of the wounds on my nose, despite those warnings that I will look worst. I guess I just felt ashamed that most of my wounds in my face are on my nose. If my mom sees this blog she'll probably give me a long talk on why I shouldn't fell ashamed, and I wrote this sentence so that when she does look at this blog she'll laugh instead and spare me. The wound on my shoulder is a little uncomfortable. When I put it on water it feels like I'm on fire. It hurts when I stretch it. Today I feel much more comfortable. I could stretch it but not too much. I'm okay with the wound on my knee. I do...

How Twins are Born

Twins are people born at the same time. There are two types of twins-fraternal and identical. They are  made in different ways. Fraternal Twins Usually people like to think of twins to be looking the same, but fraternal twins unlike identical twins doesn't look the same. Two eggs are fertilized by different sperm. Identical twins are made in a different way. Identical Twins Identical twins happen when a sperm fertilizes the egg and the egg splits into two. Since the twins came from the same egg and fertilized by the same sperm they have same DNA making them look the same. In some cases triplets, quadruplets, and even quintiplets are born.
