I think peace day is not bad idea.I am still having truble making paper cranes.My dad knows how to make peace cranes but, he didn,t have the time to show me how.I also like the peace sign that team 71 did.I helped my little sister with her homework yesterday. I felt great when i helped her.About the timeline,thank you for talking about Jermey,that kind of helped me with my timeline.Happy birthday. Do the peace sign please when my little goes to middle school ok. She would love it.

Peace Day is a good day to invent but not very many people know about it. only 15% of the world know about it and the only reason Afganistan stoped so that the kids would be able to be vacinated so they wouldn't die. So how can you help spred Peace Day across the nation? I can spred Peace Day by telling anyone i know that would help sponser Peace Day and help people in diffrent stated tell there friends about Peace Day. People in Utah will know about Peace Day. People in Colorado will know,people in prison will know about not doing anything that would hert another human being and that Peace Day can do something to the world. The world will be siprise if America can have peace for 1 day!!!!! :) peace (<) PEACE 1 DAY WILL BE A SISESS

Our schools tribute to Peace Day should be to raise at least 20,000$ for our sparrow Joel and his family. With almost 1,000 kids at our school and 10$ being donated for every hour of community service we will only have to work about 2 hours each. Lets all work hard and give Joel and his family that extra pish they need to get back on thier feet.

Is this Alexander's tomb?!It now appears likely that Ptolemy adapted a vacant tomb that had been prepared by and for the last native Pharaoh of Egypt, Nectanebo II. However, this Pharaoh had fled south to Ethiopia, when Egypt had been invaded by the Persians in 343BC, so he never had the opportunity to occupy his tomb. The site of the prospective tomb was a chapel within the temple complex of the Serapeum in the cemetery area of ancient Memphis at Saqqara. It lay at the end of a mile-long avenue of sphinxes. The Serapeum complex was rediscovered by Auguste Mariette in 1850-1851 by excavating the sands away from the sphinxes one by one. Guarding the entrance to the chapel of Nectanebo II, Mariette discovered an incongruous semicircle of life-size Greek statues of poets and philosophers, which appear to date to the time of Ptolemy. Some of them can be identified, including Pindar, whose house and descendants Alexander had saved at Thebes, Homer, who was Alexander's favourite poet, and Plato, who had been the mentor of Alexander's tutor, Aristotle. Could these statues have been erected to honour Alexander's tomb?
