Some new science and acheivements that are going on in my region are, new cars, new technology and others. Lets me tell you aboout some of them.
First, they have come out with a new m odel of the Lambougini. It is faster and has more "buttons" aka controls than the older Lambourgini. Secondly, German_Russian PET bottle recycling company has started in Russia. "We are recycling dirty PET bottles from the trash dumps into clean PET flakes." "We would like to offer you newest PET recycling technology from Italy." Lastly,Online advertising is changing the mix of media choices in campaigns across Europe. Since 2000 the web has become established as a mainstream consumer media channel in most European countries. Across the continent, marketing budgets are now starting to follow the migration of the audience’s eyeballs and people’s focus. They are yet to reflect the full truths emerging in media consumption within the digital networked society, but they do reveal a clear picture of the scale of change that has started in where the advertising industry places its focus. The pace of digital development and the balance of digital in the mix continue to vary greatly between countries, and this paper records a snapshot of where the markets were in 2005.What emerges is a shift in marketing spend on a scale previously unseen, and the certainty that growth will continue at rates never witnessed among traditional channels.
Now that Europe has better technology they should have changed by now, and that is recent technology in my region.

Water Project

-In the water society, there is resevoirs, oceans, factories, and the local waters.
-We also had clouds that if we ran into them, we put a sppon?cup full of water into their cups which showed when it was full it would rain.
-And when we added more resevoirs to our society the water was died blue for pollution because the more people the more pollution.
-When the resivoirs overflowed what do you do, what happens if a real resivoir overflows....

Science Kites Project

Kites:
-Kites fly because of the wind coming from the sea breeze.
-New Jersey gets sea breeze because of the Atlantic Ocean.
-Jet Streams may not play as big of a role to help fly kites but they do help contribute to flying them.
-If you create a circular kite it isn't as likely to fly as one with edges, for instance a diamond or square.

My kite was a circular kite but I messed around with it, so i folded it in a tunnel shape and then connected it with a string which made it fly.

Theodore Roosevelt declares The Grand Canyon A Nation Monument

http://www.history.com/this-day-in-history

-In 1869, geologist John Wesley Powell led a group of 10 men in the first journey down the Colorado River and along the length of the 277-mile gorge in four rowboats.

-After establishing the National Wildlife Refuge to protect the country's animals, fish and birds, Roosevelt turned his attention to federal regulation of public lands.

-Though a region could be given national park status-indicating that all private development on that land was "illegal"-only by an act of Congress, Roosevelt cut down on red tape by beginning a new presidential practice of granting a similar "national monument" designation to some of the West's greatest treasures.

-In January 1908, Roosevelt exercised this right to make more than 800,000 acres of the Grand Canyon area into a national monument

-"Let this great wonder of nature remain as it now is," he declared. "You cannot improve on it. But what you can do is keep it for your children, your children’s children, and all who come after you, as the one great sight which every American should see."-------as Theodore said.
