=Miami vs Chicago vs National= I think that Miami has overall more crimes than Chicago. Chicago has the most murder, and robbery. Miami has the most assault, burglary, theft, and auto theft. Miami is a bigger city so that is why I think it has more crimes. **Overall in the** whole nation, we don't have as much crimes as Miami and Chicago**.(Why do you think this is true?)** If you moved to Miami or Chicago you should look at these graphs. I would rather live in Chicago because there are less overall crimes. I really wouldn't like to live in either because of all of the crimes. If you owned a small store in either of the towns you would have to watch out because there is a lot of theft. =Miami vs Los Angeles vs National= Miami vs Los AngelesMiami still has more crimes. Los Angeles has less crimes than Miami. In this graph, Miami has more murder,robbery, burglary, assault, theft, and auto theft. Los Angeles has a lot less crimes than Miami, it kind of surprises me how much less crime there is in Los Angeles. The national theft is almost as high as Los Angeles thefts, **this** does not really surprise me but I would think that there would be more overall thefts in the whole nation. If I had to pick one of those places to live, I would pick Los Angeles because there seems to be a lot less crime. I wouldn't want to live in a place with lots of crimes because I do not like how people commit these crimes. I don't really like the **HUGE** cities but I still would like to live in Los Angeles. =Miami vs Portsmouth vs Nation= Miami has **so much more crime going on** (wording) than Portsmouth. It is weird seeing how much crime there is in Miami and how little there is in Portsmouth. If you look at the graph, there is no murder in Portsmouth.Most of the crime commited in Portsmouth is a lot less than in the nation. Miami is on top of all of the charts and Portsmouth is on the bottom. Portsmouth is a much safer city. **What crimes do occur in Portsmouth?** I would much rather live in Portsmouth. It has so much less crime and it is a lot safer. I go into Portsmouth all of the time and I think that it is very safe. I love Portsmouth because it is kind of small but it is still fun.

I think that the most **simalar** graphs are Miami vs Chicago vs National. = =
 * Maggie, some great comparisons. A stronger comparison in Portsmouth would be good. 95/95**

= = =9/25/09 Bottle making= 1. I think that bottles are made from amorphous solids because it is easier to melt. 2.The mold needs to be close to the temperature of the glass because if the mold is room temperature the glass will start to cool and harden. 3.I think the viscosity is high because the bottle is thick, but still a little bit rubbery. 4. I think it is called a super-cooled liquid because it is really hot then it cools down very fast. == ==**I think that Herbie is non living because he is a car and cars don't need oxygen and don't breath. I can see why E.T. thought the cars were living because it looked like they were eating and comunicating, by honing their horns and getting fuel. But cars need to have people to make them run and to refule them. I don't think that cars can be living because cars are machines and machines are not living. I think that the apple is non-living because it doesn't do anything without a person. Even though I think the apple is non-living, I think the tree that the apple came from is living because it needs water and sun. The apple isn't connected to the tree anymore so it is not living. The tree is what makes the apple living when it was on the tree but when it came off, the tree couldn't give the apple any water or sun.**==
