If you are interested in science and the field of Radioactivity, you can do a search on Google for the term: ' cool math - radioactive decay calculator' and you will find a method that is used to figure out how to find the decay of certain types of matter. I'm no scientist and so it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. I'm sure it involves radioactive elements , isotopes , and ions. But that type of information is not familiar to me at all! But it could prove to be interesting to you.

First off, who is Marie Curie? Marie was a chemist and a physicist who lead research in the realm of radioactivity. She was given 2 Nobel Prizes for her work in developing a technique to isolate radioactive isotopes. She also discovered 2 elements that we currently have on our periodic table: Radium and Polonium. (You remember the chart of elements we had to study in school don't you?)

I'm not talking about the type of science that you would observe at a museum or the kind of science that requires projects . I'm talking about the science involving the TV show The Big Bang Theory series. Have you watched it? My favorite cast members are Sheldon , who is played by Jim Parsons. He is so funny!! Bazzinga! Ha-ha. My next favorite person on the show is Penny who is played by Kaley Cuoco . She is hot looking!

99705 This is just in case you youngsters were looking for the whereabouts of Santa's home area. You must know that he lives in the North Pole but you may not know what his zip code is. It's 99705 .

I'm must be way behind in my times because I, up until recently, had never heard of Drake quotes. I grew up listening to rap but I guess I must have missed hearing from this successful rapper. His lyrics have become popular quotes and sayings amongst people. He talks about life, friends, relationships, drinking, girls, success, peer pressure. Wow, I had no idea. Here is an example of a quote from Drake called 'Take Care':  'It’s my birthday, I’ll get high if I want to'.

To give help for kids with the SAT's and similar tests, Barnes & Noble provides popular study guides called SparkNotes . They range from all kinds of subjects from history to math and science. Some think it's a cheating way to study but I feel that if your kids learn and they pass then it's not cheating. There is nothing wrong in opinion to having everything you need at your fingertips.

Yep, that's what we have been thinking about doing lately, cutting out paper snowflakes . You may be wondering why. Well, we live in Florida and I originally came from Michigan where it snows every year. And since snow is real rare here in Florida (ha-ha) we decided it would be cool to go with a winter theme for decorations this year. So we have been looking for free patterns online. A lot of people make snowflakes using Christmas patterns . We found a site called http://www.papersnowflakes.com/patterns.htm. We will be cutting away!
