Oil Spill

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/special/nation/interactive-oil-spill-map/

I looked at this interactive map on the link above of the oil spill spreading day by day.
More than 436,236 gallon of dispersant were sprayed in efforts to clean up the oil spill on the gulf of Mexico.

The Bread Project


4 things I learned from the hunger website were.........

1. Between 2007 and 2008, the number of children living in poverty grew by 744,000.

2. Children who are hungry may have impaired cognitive functioning and may have a diminished capacity to learn.

3.  Whole grains may lower the risk of heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.

4. Whole grains are a good source of fiber.
