Last week, we cooked the baked potato.To do baked potato, the potatoes need to be in the oven for 20 minutes but sometimes the potatoes are not yet cooked so you need to put it again until the middle part is already soft to mash. So in short, you need to have patience while waiting for it to be cooked. You can also do something while you are waiting, for example, gather the ingredients and after you gather the ingredients you can do the cuttings. You can also do the ham frying so that you're not wasting your time.

2 Facts about sugar and what it has to do with your health

According to Marcola:

• Your Brain

  Eating sugar gives your brain a huge surge of a feel-good chemical called dopamine, which explains why you’re more likely to crave a candy bar at 3 p.m. than an apple or a carrot. Because whole foods like fruits and veggies don’t cause the brain to release as much dopamine, your brain starts to need more and more sugar to get that same feeling of pleasure. This causes those “gotta-have-it” feelings for your after-dinner ice cream that are so hard to tame.
• It tricks your body into gaining weight and affects your insulin and leptin signaling. Fructose fools your metabolism by turning off your body's appetite-control system. It fails to stimulate insulin, which in turn fails to suppress ghrelin, or "the hunger hormone," which then fails to stimulate leptin or "the satiety hormone." This causes you to eat more and develop insulin resistance

Food tests

So we tested the bread, patty, and cheese and this is the result:

Tester	Biuret test for Protein	Starch test	Sugar test	Fat test
Bread	None	Yes	Yes	Not translucent
Patty	Yes	None	None	Translucent
Cheese	Yes	None	None	Not translucent

Evidence:

Biuret Test for protein:

Bread-

Patty-

Cheese-

It is not that clear but it turned violet when we tested it

Starch Test

So in this photo, you can see that the bread into blue-black color which means it has starch on it.

Maybe you are confused to the cheese and the patty why some part of it has blue-black color? Does it mean that it has starch on it too? The answer is no. It has parts that it turns into blue-black color because we did not separate properly the cheese and patty on the bread so there is some little piece in the tester. But in the other food test, we ensure that no more small piece of bread or whatever included.

Sugar test

You will know that there is sugar existing in a food when it turns into "brick-red color"

BREAD

 PATTY

CHEESE

Fat test

In the fat tests, I forgot to take a photo in it but I wrote down the results and it's on the upper part of this blog.

Conclusion;

I've learned that every food contains nutrients and it so enjoy to test it. The moment when you are waiting for it to turn into different color or even it doesn't change is so amazing. I've learned that when we are doing the experiment we should always remember that the protection gears are worn by us.

Nutrients

What nutrient/function do you have?
-The nutrient/function that we have carbohydrates, calcium, fats and sort of vitamins.
What impact does this have on your well being and overall survival?
-So the impact does this have on our well being and overall survival is that we will be more full than the others because I supposed that we have more food than them.We are richer than them in terms of healthy body.
If you could barter with a group, what would it be and why?
-If we could barter to our groups it would be foods that are rich in iodine that will help our brain function well and also a knife that will help us to cut things on the survival island.

"Let's Do It!"

So in these blog today I'm going to show what are the action plans that we constructed for our task which is helping those victims of domestic violence in our community get their freedom and happiness even though in a simple way .

"Nobody deserves to be hurt, but someone can hurt you more than you deserve"

Steps needed to achieve the goal.	What will help us achieve this goal?(Enablers)	Possible barriers and how they could be overcome.	Who is responsible for this step?	Date this step will be achieved by.
first we plan what fund we are raising And our plan: We decided to to car wash for our fundraising We will provide the equipment for this fund raising. We decided on the hornby primary school.	by working together as a team and getting things done. We will also have the equipment that we will be needing for this. We need to push our best and we need to work hard. We must set our mind that we are doing this not because we want to finish this school project but we want to make a change for the society.	the people that we’re going to offer some car wash might not allow us to wash their car. It could be a good or bad weather.	Roanne, devie, Lahtia, and thamhie.	November

We will email the  women’s refuge org. To ask if there are domestic violence victims in hornby .we will ask for their help to support us in our project or we could help them for the donations of the domestic violence victims.

By working together as a team and getting things done. The good connection in terms of wifi.

They might not approved our Action and ignored our proposal. We will do the other ways to contact them and we can visit their website that can help us to contact them.

Lathia, Roanne, DEvie And Thamhie

the day that women refuge approved our proposal and we estimate that either on wednesday to friday.

We will ask for permission to do our carwash on the hornby primary  school. After that we will go outside to do our tasks.

If there are some students that will help us to do the fundraising, the work will be a lot easier. Calm mind and patience. The equipments that we will be using in the mission.

The limited time that we will have. We might don’t have the enough time to finish. The place might be hard to go.

Roanne, thamhie, devie, lahtia

27/11/17

After we collected and WE WILL NOW contact women refuge to give our donations . lastly,We will now inform our school, family, and the community that we achieved doing positive impact in the society.

More time. The people that will join our mission. The good weather will help us more to continue the task.

They might not receive our donations or they might refuse .if they won’t receive it we’ll just give it the other day and we’ll leave a letter saying that we are offering some gift and we are genuine doing that to them.we will try to explain what is our purpose for the donations. The weather too, if the weather is not nice we can just continue to the next day.

Roanne,thamhie,devie and lahtia

Not until the end of the term

We now completed the action plans and the barriers that might come on our way. Our action plan was already showed and checked to our teachers, now we are ready to step our feet outside and help the community with earnest desire.

"Give Hearts to those who are hurt"

In our school Hornby High, we created a group wherein there is a task for us to do and it is how can we have a positive impact on our community. We planned that each of o us chooses their own topic and after they are satisfied with the topic they want we gathered all the topics and discussed what should be our final topic. We chose domestic violence because we want to widen our knowledge about this topic and how can us millennials do something about this. Our group was named as LA.RO T.VIE, it came from the combination of our name which is Lahtia, Roanne, Thamhie, and Devie and we thought that it is unique.

For us to get some knowledge about the topic, we researched and look for some websites that can help us to understand more about it. Here are the websites we used:

Website Name`	Link	Date we accessed site
World Health Organization	http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs239/en/	13/11/17
Women's Refuge New Zealand	https://womensrefuge.org.nz	13/11/17
Abuse Hurts	http://stopabuse.umich.edu/about/understanding.html	13/11/17
Australian Constitute of Criminology	http://www.aic.gov.au/publications/current%20series/rip/1-10/07.html	13/11/17
New Zealand Police	http://www.police.govt.nz/	13/11/17

Then there are questions asking about our topics that we answered which are:
Who is affected? Everyone is affected because we are in one community. Women, men. adolescents and children.
What are the issues? Kinds of domestic violence like physical abuse, sexual abuse and etc. The increasing number of death and suicide because of domestic violence.
When did this start and how has it progressed? So we didn’t know when did this started but we are sure that domestic violence has happened back in old times, in the era of our old old old old ancestors. As time passes by, people inherit this act.Example: In Ancient Civilizations The Code of Hammurabi is the oldest written legal code known to exist. In it are provisions for disciplining a wife and children by the husband/ father.
Where is this happening? This happens worldwide.But according to the national surveys, the percentage of women being physically assaulted in New Zealand is 35%.
Why is this happening? Domestic Violence is happening because of the build-up tensions and a breakdown in communication.Stress and state in life or poverty are one of the biggest reason why domestic violence happens.

After that, we created a solution how to solve it.

We wanted to inform everybody that we millennials are one of the responsible for the problem and we also are trying our best to give everybody what they deserve. This quote from a story which is "He's Into Her" really inspired me to continue this project and it is the quote" Nobody deserves to be hurt, but someone can hurt you more than you deserve". This quote really summarizes our topic. It is just a simple quote but it really captures a heart .We desired to create a path to every victims of domestic violence which will lead them for their freedom and happiness.
