Fluffball - Rest in Peace

Fluffball seemed to radiate. She was our hot-water-bottle of light. When she sniffed at my ear, I was overcome with love. She was our friendly, furry, fluffy companion.
R.I.P, Fluffy.

Love to y'all, specially Fluffball,

My Homework - Most influential people - Sir Isaac Newton

There he is. The great Sir Isaac Newton. What has he done to change the world? A whopping great lot, if you ask me.

In 1677, Newton returned to his work on mechanics, i.e., gravitation and its effect on the orbits of planets, with reference to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, and consulting with Hooke and Flamsteed on the subject. He published his results in De motu corporum in gyrum (1684). This contained the beginnings of the laws of motion that would inform the Principia.

The Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica (now known as the Principia) was published on 5 July 1687 with encouragement and financial help from Edmond Halley. In this work Newton stated the three universal laws of motion that were not to be improved upon for more than two hundred years. He used the Latin word gravitas (weight) for the effect that would become known as gravity, and defined the law of universal gravitation. In the same work he presented the first analytical determination, based on Boyle's law, of the speed of sound in air.

With the Principia, Newton became internationally recognized. He acquired a circle of admirers, including the Swiss-born mathematician Nicolas Fatio de Duillier, with whom he formed an intense relationship that lasted until 1693. The end of this friendship led Newton to a nervous breakdown.

That and MORE!

In a manuscript he wrote in 1704 in which he describes his attempts to extract scientific information from the Bible, he estimated that the world would end no earlier than 2060. In predicting this he said, "This I mention not to assert when the time of the end shall be, but to put a stop to the rash conjectures of fanciful men who are frequently predicting the time of the end, and by doing so bring the sacred prophesies into discredit as often as their predictions fail."<sup>[34]

I sure hope that doesn't happen!!!

Green fingers

The music was pure, light, golden. Like triangles in the morning air, it wafted through the air like a sweet flower blossoming, a rose cupped in a childs hand.
Then, it changed. As it began to mount, my heart pounded crazily, so fast I felt faint. As I began to sweat, the high notes were thumped and bnaged on one after another, in a cacophany of incredible sound.
Then, it started all over again. I breathed deeply, letting all my wishes escape in the cold misty air, in a warm breath. Then, it stopped, and all of the emotion I had been experiencing suddenly shot away from me, a cork out of a bottle, and I was left with a sheet of music in front of me and my hands still on the Piano.

My HamiltON project with sweet angel

Hi, Sweet Angel and I are doing our project on Garffiti in The ON of Hamilt. This is my own little postery thing.



Graffiti

I you don't mind me saying so, Hamilton has a LOT of graffiti. There is Garffiti under one of the bridges I have seen in Hamilton. So much, in fact, I can't seem to see much metal when I go back to that photo.
There is a lot on the fences of the properties in front of the gate of the Bike shed. Wow! It's pretty greusome.
And, of course, there is odd bits of graffiti here and there, a lot of it's in parks.




But Hamilton City Council (HCC) are fighting back! We have had clean-up days, and plain walls are done up cleverly by Graffiti artists or schools to stop Taggers from tagging. I don't know why they don't tag any more, but thats just what... happens! It looks cool, Anyhow. Check out the wall at The Waikato Uni:




But not every thing is good news. Taggers don't get caught much, so it's a burden to our Police. In a small inerview an officer told me that the only thing they can do to stop Graffiti too much is to cover up vulerable spots and create special programmes that use children painting over Graffiti - Good as new!


And, no matter what happens, Hamilton will just be.... Hamilton! Just,hopefully, a lot cleaner!
