3 People who won the Nobel Peace Prize and imformation about them

1. Malala Yousafzai
    Malala is Pakistani. She was born in 1997. A Taliban gunman tried to kill her (what did she ever do?). Luckily, she survived. After recovering from the injury, she started a non-profit fund called the Malala fund and became an education activist. In 2014, she was rewarded the Nobel Peace Prize and is the youngest laureate yet.
2. Aung San Suu Kyi
    Aung San is Burmese. She was born in 1945. After she graduated from the University of Delhi in 1964 and the University of Oxford in 1968, she worked at the United Nations for three years. In 1972, she married Michael Aris and had two children. She was prominent in the 1988 uprisings in Myanmar. From 1989 to 2010 she was a political prisoner. In 1991, she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
3. Dalai Lama
    Dalai is Tibetan. He was born in 1935. When he was four years old he was recognized as a Dalai Lama. In fact, that is not his real name. Dalai Lamas are important monks from the Gelug school, which is the newest school for Tibetan Buddhism. His real, religious name is Jetsun Jamphel Ngawang Lobsang Yeshe Tenzin Gyatso. When Dalai was fifteen, there was the PRC's (China's) invasion of Tibet, where he began to have full political duties. In 1989, he won the Nobel Peace Prize.

Funny quotes from Futurama Part 1

Weird Cyrillic

Wнy does the Cyrillic alpнaвeт (Russian, Bulgarian, Macedonian, Serвian, Uкrainian, Belarusian, and мanу oтнer  alpнaвeтs coмвined) looк so weird? I'm noт saying Englisн is normal, тнougн. Wнo caмe up wiтн the leттers X and Q? Wнy noт jusт use "Ks" and "Kw"Anyway, in the Cyrillic alpнaвeт тнere's a leттer that looкs liкe 3:З. Suppose you're a Russian мaтнeмaтician and you're reading a book and doing equations. You look at the letter "З" and then your math equation that is 33+4,007. Can you tell the difference? Probably not.
  In Cyrillic, there is no letter that is equivalent to C. That makes sense. In English, the only time we need to use C is when we're doing "Ch", and the Russians have a letter for that:Ч. 
  In Cyrillic, there's another letter that looks like a number: Ч.
  The letter that I'm about to talk about is super ridiculous. It is 7 O's and dots inside of each O. It's hard to explain, so I'm going to show it to you: ꙮ. They don't use it anymore. That's a good thing because it would take 10 seconds to write one letter.
  Usually you only put an umlaut (¨) on one letter, but since Ы looks like two letters, it seems that Ы  is sharing an umlaut: Ӹ.
  Look at these 2 Cyrillic letters: Є and Э. They're mirror images! If you're going to make a letter, you've got to choose which way it's facing.
  This letter looks like someone's spying on you through binoculars: Ꙭ.
  As you can see, Cyrillic is weird.

 

 

 

 

 


  
  
 

Brother Grimms' Fairy tale Illogical-ness

1. Goldilocks
    Why would someone walk into someone's house, eat their food, sit in their chairs, and even sleep in their beds?! Stupid people. But in this case, Goldilocks. And she even did it when her mom said not to! I wouldn't even need my mom to tell me that for me to know that doing that is bad! Why the heck did the Brothers Grimm come up with this story?! Also, why does Goldilocks have a house and a family of bears have a house? Bears are not as technologically advanced as humans.







2. Little Red Riding Hood
    The wolf must've had a pretty good costume to fool Red Riding Hood. She's seen her grandma for her whole life and now a wolf is wearing her clothes and she thinks it's the same person. It's not like she has bad sight. And then a lumberjack cuts open the wolf's stomach. The grandma steps out of the wolf, unharmed, somehow. She's not even ground up by the wolf's teeth.





3. Hansel and Gretel
    The witch in this story is extremely cruel. Who would cook kids in an oven? Also, she puts the kid in a cage and tries to fatten them up. If I was Hansel I would start eating the house and throwing pieces of candy at the witch. She looks like she's pretty old. As she puts them in the cage, and as she walks slowly toward it, I would karate-kick her in the face!




If I Made A Language

If I made a language,

This would be its alphabet:
 A a  B b  Ç ç  D d  Δ δ  E e  È è  Ë ë  F f  G g  G̃ g̃  H h   X x  I i  J j  Ž ž  K k  L l  M m  N n  O o      Õ õ   P p  R r  S s  Ş ş  T t  Θ θ   U u  Û û  V v  W w  Y y  Z z

This would be the sounds the letters made:
A: ɑː, ɒ, eɪ, a
B: b
Ç:
D: d
Δ: ð
E: ɛ, iː,
È: æ
Ë: ʌ
F: f
G: g
G̃: ŋ
H  or  : h
X: x
I: ɪ, aɪ,
J  or  Ǧ:  
Ž  or  : ʒ
K: k
L: l
M: m
N: n
O: oʊ, ɑː, ɒ 
Õ: ɔː
P: p
R: ɹ
S: s
Ş: ʃ
T: t
Θ: θ
U: uː, juː
Û: ʊ
V: v
W: w
Y: j
Z: z

This would be the vowels:
A  E  È  Ë  I  O  Õ  U  Û

This would be some of the language's words:
Yëntnël: Hello
Tahaawû: What
Jenlek: Why
Θonnwûrel: Hat
Gennkiyo: Where
Weδnë: Towel
Tonn: Like
Hõriff: Tall
Dež Fowèl: When
Foyûç: Jack-in-the-box
Şaafullnil: Toward
Dekig̃: Talking
Aǰ ī līnaaθ : Weird

This would be the name of the language:
Gelun 

This would be its speakers:

Henry D.

Ellie D.

Carrie D.

Pete D. 

This would be its digraphs:
Ny: /ɲ/
Ly: /ʎ/
Ao: /aʊ/
Oi: /ɔɪ/

If you add a macron to a, e, i, o, and u like this:

Ā Ē Ī Ō Ū
Then the letters would be pronounced eɪ, iː, aɪ, , and juː, respectively, instead of a, ɛ, ɪ, ɒ, and .

If you add a háček to g, x, j, and r like this :

Ǧ J̌ Ř

It would make the sounds dʒ, h, ʒ, and r, respectively.
