-tein? Your body uses protein you eat to make lots of specialized protein molecules that have special jobs. Protein is used to make hemoglobin which is the part of the red blood cells that carries oxygen to every part of your body!

Protein builds up, maintains and replaces tissues in your body. How do you get protein

cheese), nuts (peanut butter), seeds (grains including bread and pasta), and legumes like black beans and lentils. When you eat foods with protein, the digestive juices in your stom-ach and intestine go to work. They break down the protein into basic units called amino acids. These can be reused to make the proteins your body needs to maintain your muscles, bones, blood and body organs.

The amino acids can join together to make thousands of different proteins. 22 of them are very important to human health. Your body can make 13 of them but the other nine you get by eating protein rich food. These are called essential amino acids.

Protein from animal sources like milk and meat are called complete because they carry all nine of the essential amino acids. Most vegetable protein is considered incomplete be-cause it lacks one or more of the essentials. People who are vegetarians must get all their amino acids by eating a wide variety of protein rich vegetable foods.

How much protein do you need daily? Kids need 0.5 grams of protein

weight and divide it by 2. If a person weighs 50 pounds of weight, they will need about 25 grams of protein every day. The good news is that you don’t have to eat all the essential amino acids in every meal. If you have a variety of protein sources throughout the day, your body will grab what it needs from each meal. As your body grows, so does your protein needs.


Birthdays are one of the most exciting and cheerful events ina person’s life. For most of us, the yummy birthday cake is es-pecially enjoyable. Have you ever wondered who invented thebirthday cake and the tradition of placing candles on the cake?

the candles have varied through the centuries, the tradition is along and enduring one. A cake makes a birthday entirely spe-cial and complete.

The CornetThe cornet is a brass instrument that is similar to the trumpet. It

is used in brass bands, military bands and jazz ensembles. Thecornet looks a lot like the trumpet and they are both valved instru-ments. A few different features make the cornet unique. It has adeeper, narrower mouthpiece which makes it more flexible by al-lowing a player to control its tone more effectively. It is also slightlysmaller than the trumpet. The cornet is sometimes played with along shank attached to the mouthpiece to create an extra long windpipe.

Like all other modern brass wind instruments, the cornet makesa sound when the player vibrates their lips in the mouthpiece, cre-ating a vibrating column of air in the tubing. The frequency of theair column’s vibration can be modified by changing the lip apertureor “embouchure.” In addition, the column of air can be lengthenedby engaging one or more valves (finger buttons) lowering the pitch.

Igor Stravinsky

Igor Stravinsky was born on June 17, 1882 in St. Petersburgwhich was the capital of Russia at that time. His father was a fa-mous opera singer so, he was exposed to all the famous musi-cians of the day.

He began taking piano lessons at age 9. When he was olderand studying law, one of his classmates was the son of composerNikolai Rimsky-Korsakov and he agreed to give Stravinsky com-position lessons. Stravinsky had a big success with “The Fire-bird”, which he composed for thehead of the Russian Ballet.

Stravinsky went on to write moremusic not sticking to one style in par-ticular. He wrote Russian-soundingmusic, modern music, opera and re-ligious music. During World War II,he came to the United States. Helived in both California and NewYork.

Because of these valves, it is suitable for chromatic music.The legendary jazz pioneer Buddy Bolden played the cornet,

and Louis Armstrong started off on the cornet but later switched tothe trumpet. Cornetists such as Bubber Miley and Rex Stewartcontributed substantially to the Duke Ellington Orchestra's earlysound. Jimmy McPartland and Bix Beiderbecke played gold-plated cornets!! A famous musical piece, “The Story of a Soldier”was written by Igor Stravinsky.

The Benefits OfCamouflage

Camouflage (kam-uh-flahzh) is the way some animals hide or dis-guise themselves to blend in with their environment. Some of themuse camouflage to help them remain hidden from predators andsome change colors to express their moods.

Camouflage is beneficial to many different animals to help themstay hidden from predators who primarily hunt using vision and notsmell. Some are born with markings that are similar to leaves orstones that are present in their habitat. As their surroundingschange some will change the color of their fur, like the arctic fox. It’s

fur will be brown to hide inthe trees in the warmerweather and will growwhite fur to hide in thesnow during the coldermonths. Octopus willchange their color andtexture quickly in order toaccomodate the changeof its terrain on the oceanfloor! Walking Sticks withtheir dark bodies andlarge joints look like twigsto escape their predators.

Chameleons are lizards who change colors. They express theirmood by turning yellow, dark blue or black if they become angry.

Some animals like the zebrahave a special pattern thathelps them blend in with eachother to confuse their preda-tor. The zebra’s stripes pre-vent lions from focusing onone animal.

There are also animals thatuse mimicry to confuse theirpredators. Mimicry is a formof camouflage that resemblesanother animal. An example

of this are harmless snakes who mimic, or act like, rattlesnakes inappearance and behavior in order to be left alone.

Basically, animals use camouflage as a way to stay safe in theirnatural environment. Here are some examples:

The Arctic Fox duringcooler months.

Animals Of Ireland

Kerry Cattle are a rare breed of cattle indigenous (na-tive) to Ireland. Kerry cattle are most probably the descen-dants of the Celtic Shorthorn, brought to Ireland as long agoas 2000 B.C. These cows got their names from the county ofKerry in Ireland where they were very popular.

One of the oldest European breeds, their coat is almost en-tirely black with a little white on their underline. Their whitehorns also have black tips. They are small and lean. Cowsaverage 800 pounds and bulls around 1,000 pounds. Theyare active grazers, hardy and have long lives.

The milk is easily digestible by people as the butterfat glob-ules in the milk are smaller than those from most dairybreeds. It is also suited for cheese production.

Kerry cattle were imported to the United States in 1818 andprospered in the nineteenth century, but became scarce bythe 1930s. Today there are only a few herds in North Amer-ica.

The European Pine Marten is the size of an ordi-nary domestic cat, with a long body, small head, pointed muz-zle, round ears and eyes that are usually dark brown. A PineMarten's fur is also brown, and during the summer, the hue ofthe coat turns lighter. They have a creamy yellow 'bib' mark-ing on their chests. Their feet are totally furred, with sharpclaws, which enable them to climb.

Pine Martens are related to the Mustelid which includesskunks, weasels and otters. Pine Martens are excellent treetop hunters. They are fast and often jump tree to tree to pur-sue prey.

Both males and females have a highly developed sense ofsmell and have scent glands that are anal and abdominal.These scent glands help the martens mark their travel routesin trees.

The European pine marten is an omnivore (eats plants andanimals) whose diet consists of small mammals, birds, in-sects, frogs, and carrion. They also eat eggs, honey andberries.
