-Hunt for the Wilderpeople SEXXXY paragraph.

 -How Hec and Rickys relationship has changed over the time.

When Ricky first came to the farm Bella was friendly and tried to be a motherly figure towards Ricky while Hec didn’t want anything to do with him. Ricky tried to get to know him but Hec wanted nothing to do with Ricky. Heading into the film Hec started to soften up. He would only talk to Ricky if he had to. They still did not get along. Soon Hec started to open up to Ricky and was more talkative. Then the police chase happened leaving Ricky and Hec needing to talk and be completely open to each other. Soon after Ricky and Hec use a Ute to run from the cops and find the freedom. After awhile of the chase Ricky crashes the Ute into a car yard. Hec said they should just turn themselves in while Ricky said they should keep running. They start arguing and then the people find them. Hec gets arrested and goes to prison leaving their relationship completely shattered. In some time Ricky starts to get along with along with Hec and their good relationship comes back.

-100 Word Challenge St Patricks

 


St. Patrick did not banish the snakes from Ireland. After the last Ice Age, snakes never returned to the Emerald Isle.

Neither is there proof that Patrick used the three-leaf shamrock to impart the doctrine of the Trinity to the fifth-century pagan Irish. The first such reference is from a botanical catalogue published in 1726. Neither is there evidence that it was Patrick who combined pagan and Christian imagery into the Celtic cross.

Patrick was not actually Irish. Nor was he canonized by a Pope. Nor was his real name Patrick. None of it matters. The true story is better than the myth.

Captured by raiders as a 16-year-old in northern Britain, Patrick was taken across the Irish Sea by pirates and sold into slavery. Escaping from six years of bondage after receiving a spiritual vision, Patrick returned to Ireland decades later, armed only with a mystic’s faith, to convert the island to Christianity, abolishing slavery and human sacrifice in the process.

“Patrick was really a first—the first missionary to barbarians beyond the reach of Roman law,” Thomas Cahill writes in How the Irish Saved Civilization. “The step he took was in its way as bold as Columbus’s, and a thousand times more humane.”

Patrick returned to Ireland against the wishes of his family. His mission, baptizing the Irish pagans, ordaining priests, and building churches and monasteries, would last the final 30 years of his life in Ireland.

-Heart Dissection

Heart Dissection

Yesterday we dissected hearts. As we were dissecting we were identifying different parts. Some of the parts are extremely important because without them it would not pump blood around our body's.

METHOD

1. Identify the right and left sides of the heart. 

If you look closely and on one side you will see a diagonal line of blood vessels that divide the heart. The half that includes all of the apex of the heart is the left side. By squeezing each half of the heart. The left half will feel much firmer and more muscular than the right side. (The left side of the heart is stronger because it has to pump blood to the whole body. The right side only pumps blood to the lungs.)

To conclude I didn't enjoy the dissection but I did enjoy learning the parts of it. I didn't like the fact that a sheep has either been put down our passed away and then had there heart taken out.
