Medal Madness
The U.S. leads the Olympic medals race, with 26 trips to the podium so far
By Suzanne Zimbler
It has been a breakthrough Olympic season for the Americans. For the first time since 1932, the U.S. could collect more medals at the Winter Games than any other country. Will the winning streak continue? Here's an update.
Ice Dance
On Monday night, for only the third time since ice dance became an Olympic sport in 1976, the gold medal did not go to a Russian or Soviet team. Instead, Canadians Scott Moir and Tessa Virtue took home the top prize. They are the first North American ice dancers to win a gold medal. "I'll probably wear it in the shower," Moir said. "I'm not going to take it off all week."
Another North American team, U.S. ice dancers Meryl Davis and Charlie White, won the silver medal. "North America has really come into its own in terms of ice dance," Davis said.
Russia's Oksana Domnina and Maxim Shabalin came in third. Shabalin, who has struggled with a knee injury for the last few seasons, was content with the win. "We are happy with the bronze medal," he said. "It was a long, difficult way for us, and we are happy we did it."
Nordic Combined
Nordic Combined—a sport that combines ski jumping with cross-country skiing—has been part of the Winter Olympics since the Games first started, in 1924. But the U.S. team had not won a single medal in the sport, until now.
This year, the U.S. has won two silver medals in the sport: one in the first event, on February 14, and another in the second event, on Tuesday. The gold medals in the two events went to France and Austria. "To be second is fine with us because the only reason you can be disappointed with second is if you didn't give it your all," team member Johnny Spillane said.
On Thursday, the U.S. team will have one more shot at gold, when they compete in the third and last Nordic Combined event.
Women's Figure Skating
The women's figure skating competition got started on Tuesday. In the short program, the first of two events, each figure skater performs a routine no longer than 2 minutes and 50 seconds.
Yu Na Kim of South Korea came in first place. American Rachael Flatt placed fifth. Her U.S. teammate, Mirai Nagasu, came in sixth. Sixteen-year-old Nagasu was glad to place that high, considering that her nose bled for half of her routine. " You have to deal with what you've got," she said.
Flatt and Nagasu will complete in the second event, the long program, on Thursday. Each athlete could still win a medal, but Nagasu is keeping her expectations in check. "From today's performance, I don't think I can reach the podium," she said.
Unlike the Summer Olympics with many events that athletes compete medals in the hot summer, there’s also Winter Olympics too! It only has a few events, but it will be great to see as the Summer Olympics. In this time’s Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics, every country is very competive, but this time America got more medals as other countries. For over 70 years, America has not strong enough to get many medals in the games. This time many good players got medals for their country. Still not strong enough to get gold, America mostly got silver or bronze in the games. But I think every country will be competive and get a few medals!

My Dream
By Max
Age 10
Everyone has a different dream to achieve in the future. My future dream is to become a math professor. It's not easy to be a math professor, but I’ll study hard to achieve it.
Being a math professor needs a lot of hard work in researching the professional knowledge. First, I need to learn all the basics. I’ll need to be very good on all the math tests. Then in junior high school, I’ll study hard on formulas. I’ll need to be careful because sometimes the questions I answered are wrong. Then I could get good math and the other subjects’ tests to study on a good high school. At high school I need to study hard at math because sometimes there are very hard math problems that I can’t handle with. Then after I graduate from high school, I need to go to better university to study further in harder math. After I can do all kinds of math problems, it’s about to graduate from university and I can not study after all. But I can’t relax because I need to answer all kinds of problems I studied from elementary to university. After I get only 1% wrong from every question, I can advance to being a math professor. I will teach students in university and answer many math questions. That’s my dream to become a math professor.
Being a math professor is very hard. But if I put time and efforts on it, my dream will probably become true. I won’t give up when my math professor dream is a fantasy. I probably will become a computer game designer or a salesman when my dream doesn’t come true.

Glory of Heracles
Nintendo
Rated E10+
Nintendo DS and DSi
This role-playing game for the DS and DSi takes you on an adventure through Ancient Greece, birthplace of the Olympics. According to some Greek legends, Heracles, the great demi-god son of Zeus, invented the Games. But every great champion must start from the bottom up. So where did Heracles begin?
Glory of Heracles offers a different take on how Heracles started on his journey from zero to hero. Inspired by Greek mythology, the story begins when a boy washes up on the island of Crete. He has no idea who he is or how he arrived there. Soon, the boy meets others who also don't remember much about their lives. The new friends learn they have another thing in common: they are immortal, which means they can live forever. Everyone seems to think the mysterious boy is the legendary Heracles. Can it be true?
Help guide the boy on his journey of discovery. Players will visit famous places, battle mythical monsters and face many challenges. Do you have what it takes to be a hero?
Vancouver Winter Games in 2010 is ending about this week. But after the Winter Games, there are some good video games that you can play. That like last time the TFK reporters interview Shaun’s new game, snowboarding. And another video game like Glory of Hercules, I think that’s no match on the Winter Games. Pick your favorite game!

A Massive Earthquake Rocks Chile
A Massive Earthquake Rocks Chile
The South American nation responds to a devastating quake
By Suzanne Zimbler
Early on Saturday morning, one of the largest earthquakes ever recorded tore through central Chile. The powerful quake killed more than 700 people, destroyed or badly damaged 1.5 million homes and affected almost 2 million people. "We are confronting an emergency without parallel in Chile's history," said Chile's President, Michelle Bachelet.
A Shake Felt All Over the Country
The 8.8-magnitude earthquake struck around 3:34 a.m., jolting people awake all over the country. The earthquake originated underwater, off the coast of Chile. The epicenter, or point where the quake started, was 70 miles northeast of Concepcion, the country's second-largest city.
Fernando Abarzua was in one of the many buildings that collapsed there. "I was on the eighth floor and all of a sudden I was down here," he said, adding that he was surprised to have escaped with no major injuries.
The capital city of Santiago, located 200 miles southwest of the earthquake's epicenter, was also affected. An art museum there was badly damaged, a bridge collapsed and a two-story parking lot fell flat, smashing about 50 cars.
The earthquake triggered a tsunami (soo-nah-mee) that swept across the Pacific Ocean, setting off warnings in 53 countries. In Japan and Hawaii, thousands of people evacuated beaches, fearing giant waves. In the end, the tsunami's waves caused major damage and several deaths in Chile but nowhere else.
Dozens of aftershocks, or smaller earthquakes, rattled the area in the days following Saturday's massive quake. Powerful aftershocks were still being recorded Monday, a few as high as magnitude 5.3.
A History of Earthquakes
Chile has a history of earthquakes. The largest recorded earthquake in the world—a 9.5-magnitude quake—struck the country in May 1960. Since 1973, there have been 13 quakes there with a magnitude of at least 7.0. As a result, Chile's newer buildings were constructed to help withstand the shocks.
That is one reason that Chile's quake—though 500 times stronger—has caused much less damage than the earthquake that struck Haiti in January.
Help on the Way
On Sunday, Bachelet ordered troops in Chile to help deliver food, water and blankets and to clear rubble from the roads. Temporary hospitals were planned for the hardest-hit areas.
She later requested help from the international community. On Monday, the United Nations prepared to send 45 satellite phones for officials coordinating earthquake relief efforts as well as 30 tons of food and other aid.
Even before Bachelet's request, President Obama announced that the U.S. was prepared to help. "The United States stands ready to assist in the rescue and recovery efforts," he said.
This is a big earthquake! This earthquake shaked Chile and many people die!, This earthquake even had a tsunami and it went for places like Hong Kong and Japan. But this is not too dangerous than the Haiti earthquake. Lots and lots of big quakes happen in the world often!

951027-7th Birthday
Sunday, October 27, 2005
Today was my birthday.
This evening we went to “Smokey Joe”. We went to 2nd floor and there were no people on 2nd floor.
That looked excited. We ordered some fried lobster loops and spaghetti and hot pot. Grandma and Michael got the same. Then we ate together. After dinner, I bought a cup of chocolate mousse and Michael bought cheese cake with blueberry sauce. The dinner cost NT$1880 include tax.
At home, we opened the box. Michael didn’t like blueberry sauce. Mum came over and added blueberry sauce on my chocolate mousse. That looked delicious. Everyone said, “Happy Birthday to you”. And I said, ”Thank you”.

Global Warming
By Max Sun
Age 9
Global Warming is a very bad thing for us and the world now. Temperatures are rising higher and higher. Now, scientists are discovering ways to stop global warming.
We have to do some things to stop global warming too. Just like riding bicycles to work is an example. Sitting on a bus or driving a car with many people is an example too. Always turn off the lights if you don’t need them. Set the temperatures high if you want to turn on an air conditioner. Recycle cans and bottles would be a good way too. On April 22nd, there will be an Earth Hour. More than 100 countries joined it. After turning off the lights for one hour, the carbon dioxide left can plant 170,000 trees!
Imagine if the scientists didn’t discover global warming, what will happen to our lives now? A few years later, many plants and animals will become extinct. That time, we don’t feed enough food for the people. And, if the polar ice cap melts, the sea level will rise 5000 feet! That can drown the Empire State Building, and Taipei 101! So, if you don’t want to be drowned, you must go to Mount Everest. Also remember, the hurricanes, the blizzards and the tornados will become stronger if the temperatures rise.
Our world’s population is a problem too. In the 1910s, the world population was only 100,000,000. Now, the world‘s population is 6,000,000,000! Scientists said if it keeps going up, at the 22nd century, the world’s population will be over 10,000,000,000! That time, each person will eat less and less food!
Scientists first said at 2060, the polar ice cap will all melt. Then scientists said that 2012, the polar ice cap will all melt. But it keeps getting worse! Scientists said at September 2008, the polar ice cap will all melt!
So, if you want to stop the temperature from rising, just reduce the carbon dioxide. Come on, people, let’s save the earth!
Interesting Facts:
1. From 2063, if you put a large ice cube in the ocean, you will save the earth! (Sure, you need to put larger and larger ice cubes because it melts faster and faster!)
2. If you put an A+ battery in soil, 1 acre of soil will be unusable.
3. The ten hottest years all occurred in the in the last 13 years.
4. If the carbon dioxide increases, the temperatures will get higher!

970705-970707 A trip to Chia Yi
Day 1 in Chia Yi嘉義
Saturday, July 5th, 2008
Today I woke up at 5:30am. I packed my suitcase and backpack. We got 2 sandwiches and went out. My dad bought some bean soup for us. We went to the railway station. We need to take the 7:00am train to Chia yi. We ate breakfast and took the train. We spent a whole hour at the train and we finally arrive. I saw many people at the station. After, I went in the bus and said goodbye to my dad. We first went to a space museum. We learned about the solar system and watched a 3D movie. Then we went to a farm and saw a cow. Then there was a race. It was a drinking contest. It needs 2 people- one for feeding and one for sucking the milk. I lost but I got a prize for joining for the contest. The lunch is milk hot pot and buns. After we went to paint the fake cow’s head and put in a box. But it rained. We were been stuck for half an hour when we finally got out. We went to squeeze milk. Then we took the bus to a temple. We learned a lot of things there. Then we went to eat dinner. It was very good. Then we took the bus to a sanheyuan三合院. It has four rooms and three bathrooms. Inside it has an air conditioner and a TV. Then we went to a sort of place that we do activities. We first imagine going around the world saying hello. Then some people play acts. It was very funny. Then we ate snacks. Then we walk a long way home. I took a bath, brush my teeth and watched TV. Then at 10:30pm, I went to sleep.
Day 2 in Chia Yi
Sunday, July 6th, 2008
Today I woke up at 6:00am, but it was too early, so I slept again. At 7:00am, I got up to wash my face and get dressed. Then we went to eat breakfast. We board on the bus and went to a peanut factory. There was a peanut race. We weight our peanuts and see who the top 10. I got the top 10, and I got a bag of peanuts. Then we went to a temple to pray. Then we went to a museum. We used clay to do things. Then we went to eat lunch. The lunch is very good. Then we went back to the hotel to rest. Then we went to Fisherman’s Wharf (Not the Kaoshiung one). But it rained. So we got out but got in again. Then we went to eat dinner. Then we went to act a play. It was very funny. We got snacks. Then at 9:30pm, we went back to the hotel to take a shower, brush my teeth and went to sleep.
Day 3 in Chia Yi
Monday, July 7th, 2008
Today I woke up at 5:00am and went to sleep again. Then at 7:00am we packed our suitcases. We went to eat sandwiches and then we took a “cow truck”. We got to another peanut factory. Then we went to another salted duck egg factory. We made some salted duck egg. Then we went back and went to a place that we can get crickets. My shoes and pants got dirty. Then we eat BBQ. We eat chicken, clams, fried rice, and soup. After we made some birds with clam shells. Then, at 4:00pm, we got our suitcases and went to the station. We took the 17:13pm train to Kaoshiung. Then we played cards and we laughed very often. Then after one hour, we went back to Kaoshiung. My dad was outside waiting me. Then we went home.
These 3 days were very fun. I wish I would go there again!
