Planet Like Earth

Kepler 22b

There are multiple candidates for a planet like earth, yet this one fits most descriptions that fit a place for life. This place is Kepler-22b.

Kepler is 2.4 times the size of earth. The surface temperature is 22 degrees celsius. The amount of gravity on Kepler is 2 times as much as earth. The distance between earth and Kepler is 600 light years. There is a big chance for life on Kepler-22b. Kepler is in the goldilocks zone just like earth ( not too hot, not too cold, just right). It takes 290 days for Kepler to orbit its sun ( similar to our sun). The temperature is 72° fahrenheit (22° celsius).

“ ‘ We're getting closer and closer to discovering the so-called 'Goldilocks planet,'" ‘ Pete Worden, director of NASA's Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, California, said during a press conference (space.com).     “ ‘It's not beyond the realm of possibility that life could exist in such an ocean,’ “ said Natalie Batalha, the Kepler deputy science chief, in an interview with the Associated Press (space.com).

However, it may not have rock, water, or orbit at the edge of the goldilocks zone. Scientists are still looking into the subject. So for now we think it is possible for life to be sustained on the planet Kepler-22b.

Soccer

On December 19, 1863, the first game of soccer was played with a draw of 0-0. Soccer has long been a combat ritual where towns, nations, and tribes can go against their enemies in a friendly way. But although the sport was created at some point, there has always been something like it generations have played.

“Soccer is a sport played with your feet and ball”, Says http://www.livestrong.com/article/455079-what-is-soccer/ ,” The point the game is to get the ball in your opponent's goal without using your hands. You may dribble or pass the ball to head or kick the ball into the net”.

The game of soccer was and wasn’t created by England. China claims to have played a game similar centuries before. But England “created” a game where you run around and kick a ball in the mid-19th century. They called it football not because it was played it was played with your feet but because it wasn’t played on horseback.

Soccer easily became a popular sport because so many people were able to watch it on TV and it’s a kid-friendly sport that kids grow to love more and more as they grow. It sets them up to be a pro. Without a doubt soccer is the most popular played worldwide.

21 Pilots

21 Pilots are a band that make music that people love to listen to. They relate to the lyrics of there songs. Today there are 2 members, Tyler Joseph (piano) and Josh Dun (drums). There were other members but they quit, Chris Salih(drums) and Nick Thomas (bass guitar).

People ask “How did they meet?” Well Tyler answered,“In all honesty, we met through a mutual friend here in Columbus, Ohio. Josh came out to a show that I was playing with some other people. So, we actually met at a show and he said, ‘Hey, let's hang out sometime,’ and that's something that's said all the time, you know, and people don't really follow up on it, but for some reason Josh and I did hang out. He came over to the house and late hours into the night we got to talking about music and what we wanted to do with it.” http://www.papermag.com/twenty-one-pilots-talk-origins-insecurities-and-their-sprawling-new-al-1427572259.html

Also people ask,”Why do they call themselves ‘21 Pilots’?” Tyler came up with the band's name while studying All My Sons by Arthur Miller, a play about a man who must decide what is best for his family after causing the death of twenty-one pilots during World War II because he knowingly sent them faulty parts for the good of his business.

Their top hits include Heathens (2016), Stressed Out (2015), Ride (2011), and Car Radio (2011).

Tyler Joseph dropped new details about their new album,“Looking forward to the next record, I feel a greater sense of freedom and less pressure. I felt a lot more pressure going from Vessel to Blurryface. It didn’t happen the way [industry people] talk about it. There wasn’t a massive single [from Vessel] that projected into the pop charts. What we did was still different from their formula. Because it got beyond a certain point, I feel so much confidence that I can look at those people and look at myself and say, ‘I know what we’re making is for a group of people out there that want to hear it.’ That’s all the confidence I need.

Up, Up and Away!

Middleboro Hosts Bat Run to Raise Money for Children’s Cancer

On September 18th of this year, 842 people crossed the finish line behind the Middleboro High School to raise money for children cancer patients. This year’s Bat Run raised $50,000.

The Bat Run was created by the Jesse Heikkila Foundation in memory of Jesse Heikkila, who passed away at the age of seven while battling stage IV Neuroblastoma cancer. The race is a 5K run/walk to raise money for young cancer patients. The money the people of Middleboro raise is critical because everyday, seven kids die from cancer in the United States, and every day forty-six more kids are diagnosed.

The race’s starting/finishing line took place behind the Middleboro High School. The race goes around the center of Middleboro, and is about three miles long. The race exited the high school and entered Fairview Street. Racers took a left down Wareham Street, then continued down Center Street. They took a left onto Pearl Street, another left onto High Street, another left onto Union Street, a right onto Nickerson Street, and another right down South Main Street. Finally, racers took a left onto East Grove Street, and a right back into the high school, where they crossed the finish line. The race started at ten o’clock, and it was $30 to participate.

All racers were encouraged to dress up as their favorite superhero. After the race, there were many attractions. Ella’s Lemonade was there to sell their lemonade and other beverages. Big Daddy Entertainment played a variety of music. Other vendors from the Middleboro area showed up to sell Bat Run themed products. There was face painting, jumpy houses, a dunk tank, Santa Claus, raffles, and much more. Awards were given out to best costumes, fastest runners, and more. The money raised at this year’s Bat Run will be donated to a local pediatric oncologist.

BatKid

With the help of the make a wish foundation and the city of San Francisco 5-year-old Miles Scott (Batkid) took off from the Union Square in the morning in one of two Batmobiles  (black Lamborghinis with Batman decals). Police escorted the Batmobiles and closed off the roads around it as they sped to their first caper (a damsel in distress on a cable car track).

Wherever Miles (Batkid) is to save the day, the people are there to see him save people/ arrest bad guys. The people are there to cheer him on and to make him feel like his wish of becoming batman is true. Some people might think that Miles doesn’t get to act like he’s batman because they probably don’t think that it’s fair that the people have to sit there and cheer him on to make it feel like his wish is coming true.

The wish foundation knew that Miles had leukemia, so they wanted to make Miles wish come true because they thought that since Miles had leukemia and they felt really bad because leukemia is a type of cancer which you probably die from. The wish foundation was planning to make Miles wish come true so they were trying to find a way to make it happen so they were gathering up stuff and asking a couple of people to help her make Miles wish come true.  Miles got so excited for being a mini version of batman and being able to help fight crime with batman. Miles kind of got a little shy because there was a lot of people around him and watching him while he was putting the bad guy in the jail cell.

Miles got an illness called “Leukemia” and it is a type of illness that you can probably die from. Miles still has leukemia and he is still trying to fight it. When Miles turned 7 years old, he didn’t have leukemia.

Miles got leukemia when he was 5 years old. Miles fought leukemia until he was 7 years old. After Miles fought leukemia, he went back to  hi normal life and joined a baseball team.

SeaWorld has been know for the whales shows but little do you know what is behind the show.

Seaworld treats their whales questionably, such as adding black zinc on their sunburn so it looks like they dont have one.To go alone with their pool it is not deep anough at all for the whales says http://www.seaworldofhurt.com/features/ten-things-didnt-know-seaworld/ .Ways they get their whales are even worse,they capture the whales from the ocean and sometimes if they dont get captured they end up dying.But even at SeaWorld they dont have a long life its approxementy 30-50 years ,most likely the males have more shorter time to live then a female.

SeaWorld also takes out the whale's teeth for safety issues and it is very painful for the whale especially without the anesthesia.One worker came out to an website https://www.thedodo.com/seaworld-orcas-peel-skin-off-each-other-1498617162.html “If people knew what I know,or saw what I have seen,they woudnt sell another ticket.”Says Sara FishBeck.

Some things Sara said were very disturbing such as "You'd be diving at the bottom of the tanks and you'd find these long strips of what looked like black rubber," she explained. "And it was skin they'd peeled off each other."

Sara has been at least one of the only workers that have came out to from my research so she was really the only person that I got information off of.But she did say that workers did know about the mistreatment.One year they had a beluga and she had a baby and tried to kill the calf but seaworld said that it was natural for them to kill eachother but Sara very diagreed with that theroy in this article    https://www.thedodo.com/seaworld-orcas-peel-skin-off-each-other-1498617162.html .

The abusing got so popular that in 1993 they made a movie called Free Willy which came to a really popular movie.Eventually SeaWorld had to know that they would have to shut down the performances.Recently SeaWorld came out and said after the whale that is frequently their will be the last whale to perform after that, there will be no more whale shows.
