Family History

They say every family has at least one person who gets interested in the family history. The go-to person in my family is Spencer. He has all the records of our family history. For some reason he got old family bibles, the old photographs and scrapbooks, and even cassette tape recordings by his grandfather. Now they have ways to do more ancestry research online. I might head over to Spencer’s one day and have him show me what what’s got on my family tree.

The Old Richter Scale

richter scale math

Found this logarithm online for the old way of measuring earthquakes, the Richter Scale. Now thy use a slightly different method and call it magnitude. The recent earthquake in Japan was originally called an 8.9, but a couple of days later the decided it was actually a 9.0 magnitude.

In like a Lion

The weather has been so whack. I can’t tell you if March came in like a lion or in like a lamb. Its totally different weather every day. My best guess is that the first week of March was like a lion, although we did have a couple of nicer days. I hope that bodes well for the rest of the month. I am SOOO ready for Spring to come on and get here!
