A New Invention

Summary:

An new invention known as the SlideRider, is close to being available on the market. The invention turns normal stairs into a fun and safe slide. The new sliderider is designed for all ages and can easily be stored at the top of the staircase. The idea for the SlideRider was suggested by Trisha Cleveland from Minnesota and the designs were finished in September.

Opinion:

I think the new sliderider sounds awesome and fun for kids that will enjoy it.  I wish I had stairs at home and could use this.

Winter Wonderland

Summary:

A mysterious account on Twitter has been receiving a lot of attention. It appears a ‘magical’ account has been activated. The account name is @thetwofaireis. They appeared online on October the 30th. A Cornish school, where many children had never seen real snow, became one of the lucky targets of the fairies' magic. Their school transformed into a winter wonderland overnight.

I think these two fairies are very kind. If I saw a fairy at my school I’d be stoked and happy. (As long as they granted me a wish of course!)

Creeping Is Way

Summary:

Molten rock is creeping its way towards homes in the town of Pahoa on the island of Hawaii. The Kilauea volcano on the island has been erupting since 1983. Residents are lucky as the lava flows away from their houses. The lava is moving about nine metres a day.

Opinion:

I think the lava flowing is quite dangerous. For people who have younger children  it can be quite frightening.

The Brown Recluse Spider

Summary:

A family has been driven out of their house in St. Louis by venomous brown Recluse spiders. Brain and Susan bought the house in 2007 and are now seeing spiders everywhere and even falling from the ceiling. There were between 4500 and 6000 spiders living in their house.

Opinion:

I think this is yucky and scary. If there were a lot of spiders crawling in my house I’d be waiting outside till the pest control guy gets rid of them.
