BEAT BOXING

Have you ever wondered what that sound is that you can make with your mouth?
Well it might be beat boxing. Technically it is a way of vocal percussion,that involves rhythm and cool drum beats from your mouth. Beat boxing is thought to have originated from India. Beat boxing is definitely cooler than humming. Think about humming, there isn't much to it. Beat boxing on the other hand is a pretty cool way to express your rhythmic abilities. It is also very fun to do. You can pretty much do it whenever you want to,but probably not much in school, because some teachers get anoied.
The reason for beat boxing, i think is... say you don't have anything to listen to music on,what can you do. You can beat box any song you know,and then your friends can join in and it will all sound cool. The people who do beat boxing are drummers,rappers,or just people who want to have fun. I personally love to beat box, and beat period. I think it is so much fun. You are probably wondering now, how do you beat box. Well it is hard to explain but i will try.
You can do it different ways, depending on the person. One way is to take my lips and make kind of a low sounding popping noise. Then i move my lips back and forth to make it sound even more interesting. After that i bring my tongue up and down and all around, and then i can make any beat you throw at me.
Another way I do it is kind of gross in a way, i kind of swish a little saliva around to make a clicking kind of sound. When i use this method i can do tons of beats. Also when i use this method i can do really fast upbeat beats. This one is my favorite.

from:http://www.projectrescue.com/

their purpose:
Project Rescue's journey began in 1997 when K.K. Devaraj, an Indian National, and members of his Bombay Teen Challenge organization went into the Falkland Road red-light district in Mumbai, India with a passion to reach the young generation that was ensnared in drugs, gangs, and prostitution. The task force was stunned by what was there: a tragic city of over 100,000 women and girls, many of whom had been sold into sexual slavery by their impoverished families in North India and Nepal.
In that first encounter, they inspired over 100 young women to escape and find a new life in Jesus Christ. They were also given an additional 32 little girls by enslaved sex workers who hoped to prevent their young daughters from sharing their dark fate.

what they do:
Rescuing today's young sexual slavery victims is nothing short of a miracle.
It is a long process and one filled with risks and challenges that require considerable skill, knowledge, and poise. Our lessons learned have come the hard way.

Admittedly, our efforts don't always end with a rescued child or woman. Yet our determination to right this horrific wrong remains unshakable. Our joy in seeing the miracle of restoration reflected in a young person's eyes from sad darkness to exuberant light provides our singular focus.

what can you do to help:
There are many ways in which you can help us create real and lasting change in the lives of victims of forced prostitution:

•Donate your time
•Raise awareness
•Give your financial support

jobles man uncovers treasure

this video about a jobles man is a really lucky story. this guy finds ancient gold and silver by just going along the coast with his used metal detector. i guess he just didn't have anything better to do. i think though that he is glad he was doing this because even though he is job less he has alot of money right now. all the gold and silver that he found is now in the Smithsonian's museums in Washington d.c. this guy is a pretty lucky guy.

from tomsshoes.com

In 2006 an American traveler, Blake Mycoskie, befriended children in Argentina and found they had no shoes to protect their feet. Wanting to help, he created TOMS Shoes, a company that would match every pair of shoes purchased with a pair of new shoes given to a child in need. One for One. Blake returned to Argentina with a group of family, friends and staff later that year with 10,000 pairs of shoes made possible by caring TOMS customers.

Since our beginning, TOMS has given over 140,000* pairs of shoes to children in need through the One for One model. Because of your support, TOMS plans to give over 300,000 pairs of shoes to children in need around the world in 2009.

Our ongoing community events and Shoe Drop Tours allow TOMS supporters and enthusiasts to be part of our One for One movement.

disater maze:

this game could educate kids by showing them what to stay away from when a dissater comes. i think they should just stay inside their houses and they wil be safe. i might reconmend it to schools because of the educational feel to it. i think it was too easy. i think they should make it harder so you can learn alittle bit more.

hurricane house

this could help kids learn how to be safe with hurricane preparement. this game teaches you to move all penitential debre out of the way.
this would be a good game for anyone to play. well maybe just kids, because of the really simple stuff you do. it is a pretty cool and fun way to get your kids ready for a hurricane, or at least kind of know what they are doing.
