Goldilocks Mug

-with this ingenious phase-change mug prototype, your coffee will cool to a perfectly drinkable 140 degrees and stay there for hours.

-"Our goal was to create a coffee mug that will take piping hot coffee and cool it to a hot, but drinkable, temperature—and keep it at that temperature for a long time," Logan Maxwell, the co-creator of the aptly named Temperfect mug, told R&D Mag.

-The secret of the mug's temperature-control abilities is its unique insulation material.

- uses a three-wall design—an inner wall that holds the liquid, an outer wall that you hold, and a middle wall separating them

- Maxwell injected a proprietary nontoxic phase-changing chemical. This material is a solid at room temperature but will melt into a liquid when heated by the coffee.

Twitter is good for technology. I personally think a new education account should be made. Because u can have multiple accounts logged in at once, it would work out. It's easier to keep things less personal and more just about the school work. Also I think parents would be more comfortable with letting their kids have an account if it is used strictly for educational purposes. Making a separate account is safer and more efficient. The teachers will not have to go through our accounts and personal tweets to get to the school tweets they are looking for.

     When I see people on the street homeless and hungry it makes me want to help out. Some things I can do is give food to food drives. Also you can give clothes to Salvation Army. Seeing people less fortunate than you make you want to help out and make their life a little better. Something else you can do is go to a soup kitchen and serve food to people that cant afford it. Thankfully Wood-Ridge isn't too bad when it comes to homeless people. So you can travel to towns with people that aren't as fortunate as Wood-Ridge.

     I feel bad for the people involved the typhoon in the Philippines. Also fr the families who have family that live there, it's possible they could not even know if their family members are alive. Over 10000 people died, it was a very tragic event. Thankfully there are some things us as individuals could do to help. You can donate food through the World Food Program. You can also donate clothes through the salvation army. This is unfortunate but we have to come together and help the Philippines.
