 In this graph you see that Murder and Robbery are high in both cities. They are probably high because Miami and Chicago are both busy and crowded! When people are in a rush (like a lot of people are in these cities are) they sometimes don't notice things as much. (Example: someone stealing their wallet or robbing a bank) Theft is higher in bigger cities because all of the streets are more crowded and the people are more tightly packed together. Cities like these also have lots of little allies between buildings where Murder and Assault could take place. In a side allies it would be a lot easier to kill someone. Auto Theft is higher in Miami than in Chicago and I think that is because in Chicago they have more public transportation (Bus, Subway,Train etc.) and less cars. In Miami they have more cars and less public transportation. Burglary is higher in Miami than in Chicago. I think this is because in Miami people have their own houses and since it is so nice and warm people don't spend as much time in there houses. In Chicago people spend more time in there condos or houses and a lot of condos/houses in Chicago has good security. The national numbers are all lower than Miami's and Chicago's. Chicago and Miami don't sound like safe places to live!

**//Miami vs. Los Angeles vs. National//**  Miami and LA are both big cities. The number for murder in LA and Miami are both extreamly high even higher than the nationals number! LA is the home of many celebrities and some people dislike some celeberties and would want to try to kill them. This could be one reason why Murder is so high in LA! Another reason could be that there are many allies that Murder and Assault could take place. Assault in LA is very low compared to Miami. Theft is high in Miami but not //too // high in LA. The national's number for Theft is higher then LA's and that surprised me! I would have guessed that Theft would of been higher in LA. Auto Theft is higher in Miami than in LA. I think that is because a lot of people walk places in LA insted of driving. This leaves cars in peoples driveways. Burglary is higher in Miami because of the same thing said for Miami vs. Chicago. In LA Burglary is pretty low because there are more private neighborhoods that are safe. Robbery is higher in Miami than LA but is still pretty high in LA. This could be because a lot of people might try to steal things that celebrities have that they want. The Robbery in Miami is almost 4 times bigger than the nationals!

The graph shows that Murder in Portsmouth doesn't exist while in Miami it is more common! The reason for having no murder in Portsmouth probably has something to do with it's size. Portsmouth is MUCH smaller than Miami. Robbery in Miami is a lot higher than in Portsmouth. I think that this is because Portsmouth is a tighter community and people trust each other more. Assault is also higher in Miami than in Portsmouth! Again I think that this is because of it's size. Every one trusts each other more. Burglary isn't high in Portsmouth at all! I think that this is because peoples houses are secure and even though people do still try to break into peoples houses not as many choose to do it in Portsmouth! Auto Theft is a lot higher in Miami than in Portsmouth! Portsmouth is such a safe comunitie and if you didn't have a car you could just walk around. You wouldn't need a car! Theft is the highest in Miami but Theft for Portsmouth and National are the same! I was surprised that theft was high in Portsmouth! Sometimes when I am walking around Portsmouth I see a few strange looking people but there are always police around near by which makes it safe! I think that Miami and Portsmouth are almost complete opposites!  //**

 1. I think that they are made from amorphous solids because amorphous solids are easy to form into shapes. (like bottles) If you made bottles with crystalline solids they would not be very good bottles because they do not change as easily. 2. If the mold was too cold the glass would harden too quickly. You don't want it to harden quickly because you might want to add something to the mold once it had started to harden. 3. I think that the viscosity is high because the glass has already been in a mold and is starting to cool down so it was very resistant to flowing or changing. 4. I think that it is called a super-cooled liquid because it doesn't stay warm for very long. It cools off very fast

****I****//s a picked apple living or non-living?//**  I think that the apple was living when it was on the tree but when it was picked it was no longer living. When it was on the tree the tree gave it all the nutrients the apple needed to change but when it got picked it was no longer growing or changing.

//**ET Conclusion**//  I am taking Wicket's side because I belive that Herbie is non-living because he is man-made. Herbie also can't get food on his own and doesn't need oxygen to live. He also doesn't grow and change.
