Hi everyone! Greetings from my new school in San Antonio, Texas. This is an interesting city and I can do different things. There are two great places: Seaworld, a famous marine life theme park that has three daily shows with whales, seals and dolphins, and the San Antonio Zoo. Its fantastic! We live in a beautiful area and my school is near our house. My favorite place is the Riverwalk, a canal that crosses the center. We can go down the river in a boat or walk along it; there are many places to sit, talk, and have something to eat or drink. Mexican food is delicious, and we can also listen to Mariachi music! This is a beautiful city and the people are very nice. Ive got some new friends but I miss you all a lot! Write and tell me if you liked the photos! Love, Ema

EST THING ON NO LEGS THE FAST

Name: Oscar Pistorius Sport: Athletics From: Pretoria, South Africa Date of Birth: 22 November 1986
Oscar Pistorius, the double amputee world record holder over 100, 200 and 400 meters, does not consider himself as impaired. I'm not disabled, he says, I just don't have any legs. He runs on a pair of fiber legs. He was only 11 months old when doctors amputated his limbs beneath the knee. Oscar has an incredible attitude to his disability, exclaiming: When people ask me what's it like having artificial legs, I reply I don't know. What's it like having real legs? Pistorius, a rugby, water polo and tennis enthusiast, became an athlete by chance in January 2004 when he shattered one of his artificial knees on the rugby field.
He went to the University of Pretoria for rehabilitation. Before that, I hated athletics he says. Only eight months later he competed at the Athens Paralympics. He says: Some people think they are disabled because they have one or two disabilities. But what about the millions of abilities they have? OK, you can't run or jump but there are so many things you can do. Oscar Pistorius is not only a gold medalist and world record holder with no legs. He is an outstanding athlete, a real character and a true ambassador for disability sport.

Amazing Creatures
Written by Isabelle Tin-Aung
There are amazing and interesting creatures in the animal kingdom. Some of these creatures do incredible things with their bodies. Look at the chameleon. This lizard can change its skin color to match its surroundings. Why does it do this? Sometimes its because its angry. And sometimes its because its meeting another animal in a friendly way. The grizzly bear is another interesting creature. These bears live in countries where winters are very cold. One of the things the grizzly bear does is hibernate in the winter. Hibernating is when an animal goes into a deep sleep. The bear hibernates during the winter because the weather is very cold. The ground freezes and food is difficult to find. Sleeping helps these animals survive in the difficult winter. Grizzly bears can sleep for up to seven months with no food or water! ou already know that fish An amazing underwater creature is the flying fish. Y come in lots of shapes and colors, but they all do three important things. All fish live in water. All fish swim using their fins. All fish use their gills to get oxygen from the water. Flying fish are a little different from ordinary fish. These fish have wings to help them fly out of the water. They make long, flying jumps out of the water. Why? Because big fish like to eat them! The big fish cant see the flying fish when theyre in the air.

Do you know where your blue jeans come from? Read this simple but amazing story.
Imagine its the year 1853. Mr. Levi Strauss arrives in San Francisco and he opens a store. He has many customers who often visit the store. One of his customers is Mr. Jacob Davis. He usually buys shirts and pants, but he needs his pants to be stronger. What can he do? Suddenly, he has a brilliant idea: he puts metal rivets on the pockets. His pants now look very nice and original and are an instant success. Many people want to buy pants like these. So, Jacob now needs a business partner and asks Mr. Levi Strauss to be his partner. They are very good friends and go together to get a patent for the design. They get patent #139,121 from the US Patent and Trademark Office 20 years later, in 1873. Strauss and Davis never imagined that they were going to design the most popular jeans on earth!

When the runner starts to slow down, the shoes will play songs with a faster rhythm for example, moving from a rock ballad to hip hop in order to inspire the runner to go faster. A laser sensor in the sole of the shoes will calculate the runners pace and will send a signal to a receiver attached to an iPod. The iPod will display time, calories burned and distance covered and will also transmit this information to the runner via headphones. The running shoes will cost around $260 and will be in stores in the fall.

To the moon
Neil Armstrong, Edwin Aldrin, and Michael Collin s were three brave young men who set off from Cape Canaveral in Apollo XI on July 16, 1969, to go to the moon. They arrived four days later, after an uneventful journey of some quarter of a million miles. Armstrong was the first human being to set foot on the moon. Thats one small step for a man, he said over a worldwide radio transm ission, one giant leap for mankind. Armstrong and Aldrin spent a day and a night on the moon. The mission was a success. Apollo XI, with its precious cargo of brave men and moon rocks, splashed down into the Pacific Ocean on July 24. Today, some people believe that the landing was set up and that the journey never actually happened. What do you think?
