Class Mascot

Our class mascot is awesome. He is an elephant.
I have been making him suits out of paper. First I made him a superhero, with a cape, mask, and trunk thing. Too bad I didn't get pictures, and he got wrecked.
So, I made him another costume, but this time he has a cool pair of glasses, a cane, a feathered hat, and a floor-length fur coat.
Below are some pics:



Can anyone guess what he is supposed to be?
I am not allowed to say it online, so I made a link to it:

A bit of info on the Grumman HU-16 Albatross


"The Grumman HU-16 Albatross is a large twin-radial engine amphibious flying boat. Originally designated SA-16, it was renamed HU-16 in 1962.
The majority of Albatrosses were used by the U.S. Air Force, primarily by the Air Rescue Service. The USAF utilized the SA-16 extensively in Korea, where it gained a reputation as a rugged and seaworthy craft. Later, the HU-16B (long-wing variant) Albatross was used by the U.S. Air Force's Aerospace Rescue and Recovery Service in the Vietnam conflict. The HU-16D Albatross was used for United States Navy Search And Rescue and "skunk runs" on Guam during the Vietnam War at NAS Agana. Goodwill flights were also common to the surrounding Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands in the early 1970s. Open water landing and takeoff training using JATO was conducted frequently at Apra Harbor, Guam. The aircraft was also operated by the United States Coast Guard for many years."

Hilarious Japanese Show

Hahaha. Those are some wierd shows they have in Japan!

Aisling Symes


The sad, sad case of Aisling Symes has come to a conclusion.
She first went missing on Monday 5th October, 10 days ago. She had light brown hair, and was wearing a green parker/ski jacket, jeans with embroidered flowers on them and white tennis shoes and answers to her first name Aisling -pronounced "Ashling".
The police searched a 3 kilometre radius around the spot where she went missing, and asked locals to search their properties for another 2.
A witness saw Aishling being approached by and Asian lady, and police started searching for her in relation to the disappearance.
The police then found the body of a small child in a drain near her grandparent's home from were she went missing.
It was, unfortunately, her, and she was very sadly killed.
Her parents are just glad for some closure after worrying about her for so long.
The drain cover had been lifting off in the recent rains, and it is believed that she wandered down there by herself.
There are some other rumours, but I cannot confirm nor deny any, so I will not state them here.
*EDIT* sorry this post has been so long in the making, I had trouble finding all the facts, and then I kind of just left it unfinished for a while.

SHURIKEN BUILDING INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Start with a square (4x4).
    Valley fold in half, and unfold.
  2. Cut the square in half, to get two 2x4 sheets. (Evil!)
  3. Optionally, turn over one sheet.
  4. Valley fold each half lengthwise, to get two 1x4 sheets.
  5. Valley fold each half the other way, to get two 1x2 rectangles.
  6. Unfold to step 4, to return to two 1x4 sheets.
  7. On one sheet, valley fold the bottom half to the right,
    creating a 45 degree crease that ends at the intersection
    of the crease and the edge of the paper.
  8. Valley fold the top half to the left,
    creating a 45 degree crease that ends at the intersection
    of the crease and the edge of the paper.
    The paper should now be in an "S" shape.
  9. Repeat steps 7-8 on the other sheet,
    BUT IN MIRROR IMAGE:
    valley fold the bottom to the left, and the top to the right.
  10. Turn both sheets over.
  11. Valley fold the outermost squares in half along 45 degree angles.
    Yes, there are two diagonals to choose from.
    Pick the diagonals that bring corners closer to the
    centers of the sheets. This will make the sheets
    look even more like mirror image "S"es.
  12. Fold the two triangles created in step 10
    across the centers of the sheets.
  13. You should now have two mirror image parallelograms,
    each with proportions of 1 x 1.414...
    Turn one parallelogram over, so that the halves are not mirror images anymore.
    One half will have a slit in the middle,
    and the other half will have two flaps showing.
  14. On one piece of paper, open out the flaps, so they stand up.
    On the other piece of paper, open out the flaps, so they point down.
  15. (3-D View.) Rotate one sheet 90 degrees.
  16. Place one half on top of the other,
    so that the slits face outward.
  17. Make sure that:
    • Two flaps point up, and two flaps point down.
    • Both slits face outward.
    • The flaps are rotated so that the crossed parallelograms
      are the shape of the finished star.
    Tuck the tip of one upward-pointing flap
    into one half of the upward-facing slit.
  18. Tuck the tip of the other upward-pointing flap into the other half of the upward-facing slit.
  19. Turn the model over.
  20. Tuck another flap into the upward-facing slit.
  21. Tuck the last flap into the slit.
  22. The finished 2-piece shuriken (throwing star)
HAVE FUN THROWING AT PEOPLE.
