Kelsey's putt-putt boat experiment

R14'ers go to Zone Day:

Jake is going to Zone Day for 1500m, 800m, high jump, discus and 200m. Anna is doing 1500m, 800m and discus. Olivia is doing long jump, and Kelsey is doing 1500m and 800m. AJ is also running in the 1500m and 800m.

Go Room 14'ers!

Group Day results:

Group Day was tiring for Anna and Jake, because they had to do every event. Jake won high jump, and was 2nd in the 1500m and 800m, and 3rd equal in 200m. He also came 4th in the 400m and 5th in the finals of the 100m.

Olivia came 1st in long jump and she fell over and bruised her tail bone.

Cody didn't go very well, because he came 4th to last - he didn't have any water. He learnt that he needs to drink water to help him win. He was also versing hard people, too.

Jamie-Lee was very frustrated because she was ONE cm away from coming 3rd in shotput!

AJ's first race was the 1500m. He shot out at the start with Jake. He kept his pace up and won by 200m! In the 800m, it was AJ and another boy out at the lead, but at the final sprint, AJ won!

Chris feels pretty good about coming first in the 200m.

Kelsey came 2nd in the 1500m and 2nd in the 800m, and tied for 4th in the 400m.

Dana came 4th in the 800m and she doesn't know where she came in the 1500m. Group Day was exciting, because she was representing her school.

The Spelling Man Returns

The Spelling Man has now got 6 golds, 3 silvers and 7 bronze. Cody has been on target since his last update, and next week he hopes to improve by winning more silver, gold and bronze medals.
Good luck, Cody!

Sarcomere inhomogeneity is increased in failing cardiac trabeculae

Today, we had a special visit from a scientist named Alex Anderson. He uses rats and a special chemical to kill them. He then uses muscles from the rat to find out how the muscle reacts if he puts chemicals with the muscle. He has a really interesting job. He gets to work with lots of interesting pieces of equipment like lasers and microscopes that zoom in closer than a cell.
His dream experiment would be to design and build a robotic arm that is controlled by the brain and the nervous system.
