Where are there more germs? On a computer keyboard or on a toilet seat? Google this and report on your findings (min. 5-6 sentences).

There Are More Germs On Your Computer Keyboard Than On Toilet Seat!

Work stations contain nearly 400 times as many microbes than lavatories, it is claimed.

Office equipment should be regularly disinfected to prevent the spread of viruses and bacteria responsible for disease.

The reality of our grubby working environments is exposed in a study by the University of Arizona.

A desk is capable of supporting 10 million microbes and the average office contains 20,961 microbes per square inch, according to research.

The key offenders are telephones, which harbour up to 25,127 microbes per square inch, keyboards 3,295 and computer mice 1,676.

By contrast, the average toilet seat contains 49 microbes per square inch, the survey showed.

What did you like the most about the field trip on Friday (other than the mall) and why? If you weren’t on the field trip…. what did you do on Friday and on the weekend?

What I liked most is that the tours were short enough that i wasn’t getting tired of standing and i didnt loose interest. I think the places we went to had wicked designs also, which amused me and caught my attention.

What ideas do you have for your major video production (3-4 minutes)? ex. commercial, reality show, music video, movie trailer. There must be a PURPOSE to the video. Projects will be groups of 3-4. Who do you think you could work with responsibly and effectively (Miss Ryba will have the final decision as to whether or not certain people will be allowed to work together.)

If it were up to me i would probably choose a reality show or music video but it would be up to my group also and yes i do think me and my group would work effectively.
