Today we leaned how to layout the new SciJourn newspaper layout. It was really complicated at first, but i got the jist of it. We also learned how to convert the photos onto the computer. The new newspaper is alot better then the last one plus I like this one better.

This morning has been really long because I had to tae the ACT at like 8 this morning. I truly think that I did really good and I get my results back tomorrow so i should know the answer.

Today we did an activity where we had to find the science behind different topics. There are very few topics in which there is no science. As far as everything else there will always be some sort of science behind it. For example, today we talked about like baseball, recycling, and swimming pools. All of these had some sort of science in it.

Today we had a very heated discussion on the difference between being an expert in a particular field and having expertise in something. There are a lot of areas in which a person might have expertise in, such as burger flipping but that does not make them an expert. So I liked the whole debate type thing, it was fun

This week I got the chance to interview Dr. David Shields from UMSL. I interviewed him for an article that i was writing. The article was about cheating in sports and Dr. Shields and his wife Dr. Bredemeir wrote a book on the subject. We got to meet at Companion in the central west end. The interview went really well and I got alot of great information. I really think that my article will turn out good.
