Saying Thanks

This is not meant to be a political statement, just a way to celebrate Thanksgiving, aside from stuffing yourself with food. Xerox has a website http://www.letssaythanks.com/ were you can select a card and greeting to send to a soldier overseas in order to thank him/her for their service. Whatever you do this holiday season, try to find some way to give thanks for all we enjoy in this country.

Happy Birthday Naomi!

I hope you enjoyed your ice cream cake and wrestling.

Happy Halloween!

See-through Frogs?!

Is dissection in biology class a thing of the past? Well scientists in Japan have just moved us one step closer. Masayuki Sumida, professor at the Institute for Amphibian Biology of state-run Hiroshima University has produced a frog with see-through skin. Now researchers can see how organs and other internal parts react to age and environmental factors. Will these frogs make their way into high school science labs? Click on the frog and read the article for yourself.
