Tutankhamun




On 25th of February 2011, I went to the RDS in Dublin to see an exibition about King Tutankhamun.It showed him as ruler of Ancient Egypt and the deciphering of the Rosetta Stone,the language of the Pharoahs.Tutankhamun also was the son of former Pharoah,Akhenaten and his wife,Nefertiti.Tutankhamun died at 19,when he was Pharoah and in 1922,Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon found his tomb. And then in 1923,Lord Carnarvon died from the curse of Tutankhamun. The Rosetta Stone was founded by Jean-Francois Champollion in 1822. I thought that exibition was brilliant.

Down To The Marble Arch Caves

On 16th of March,2011,We went to the Marble Arch Caves In Co.Fermanagh.
We went into the mini-planetarium and we saw the stars and constellations.

We saw this experiment about static electricity.We rubbed a balloon onto
our hair and it stood up and it also caused this can to move.




We saw a meteorite and it was about 2 billion years old.


We then we did an experiment with sugar cubes and acid, it  melted inside because we poured acid into the sugar cubes. This showed how the caves were formed.

We also made a volcano vinegar, baking soda, washing up liquid and red food dye

We did another experiment where we loaded weights onto a hook to see how many it took to pop a party popper.

The Justin Bieber Concert

Rachael and Enya went to the Justin Bieber Concert. Willow Smith was performing her songs "21st Century Girl" and "Whip My Hair". She was amazing. Justin Bieber came on then and we cried because we were so happy. He came across the crowd on a huge heart and sang "Favourite Girl". Later he came out in a balloon shaped cage and sang "Up". He picked a girl out of the audience and sang "One Less Lonely Girl". We were so jealous of her. He also sang "Never Say Never" with Jaden Smith. He sang a song to Dan Canter (Justin Bieber's lead guitarist) to thank him for performing with him. We took loads of videos and pictures of Justin Bieber. We were coming out of the O2 and some girls started screaming because Justin Bieber was going down a lift. We ran as fast as the wind to see him. Enya saw the top of Justin's head. We had a great time and can't wait until the next time he comes to Ireland.

Time For Gadaffy to Stand Down



People in Libya are fed up with Col.Gadaffy as he is ruler of Libya and a Libyan citizen states this "I think we are sick of Gadaffy he is treating us unfair and we want him to leave just like what President Mubarek did when he left Egypt,either he leave or he will have to face us and force him to give us peace."
Unfortunately,an Irish-American man has been hit in the nose after he used offensive language at Gadaffy and he hit the Irish-American in the nose with an AK-47 machine gun,and one of Gadaffys soldiers had shot a 27-year old German man with a Model 1887 shotgun,and finally a 36-year old Brazillian man has died in the arms of Gadaffy after one of Gadaffys soldiers shot him with a G18 pistol.
Hillary Clinton,The US and President Obama are persuading Gadaffy to leave Libya,while the riots are continuing. Four Irishmen have left Benghazi to Dublin last night and they are safe with their famillies. People in Egypt are free from Mubarek's rule weeks ago before the riots in Libya.
