Skimming & Scanning These are some types of reading qualities. SKIMMING is way to read when you want to know a couple of things you just want to flick back and check for the part you are looking for. SCANNING is a way to read when you want to find keywords and when you find it with your eyes your just scan through till you find the word etc.

FART PROOF UNDIES A company in UK invented some fart-proof undies with some technology in them they can only be used once then be reactivated when been washed. The spokesperson for the company wants to make a difference affecting millions of people. The price for these are a lot $39 for briefs and $45 for boxers. I think this will be really useful for lots of people.

Food Tech This year for tech I was in food we made six things over the four weeks we were there. We made Mini Pizza first, Juice, Smoothie, Scones, Pikelets and last we made Chicken Burgers. My favourite two were smoothies and burgers because the burgers we got to fry the chicken marinaded and fry with the onions we were in groups of two so Nathan (my buddie) was cutting and grating the veges. These four weeks have been fun thank you Ms Leuthart.

Police make handcuffs bigger The NEW ZEALAND Police force has announced that they need bigger handcuffs because some of the criminals have big wrists and can’t fit the handcuffs on them. Lots of other police officers have had a problem when that happens. I think that the police force should carry different sizes small and big. In the future I would like to a police officer and hopefully I do get to be one!
