Liquid has. Liquid has 2 Definite and its shape is indefinite. Its expansion is slightly and its low compressed. All of them are different but all of them form matter witch is stuff.

Battery Lasts A Week After Charging 15 Minuets

Can you imagine a battery that you need to charge for 15 min and can hold up to over one week.Isn't it incredible what new stuff technologists have discovered. But Imagine plugging your phone for 15 min and then having it for the rest of the week with not caring about how much it charges. According to the engineers at North West University have invented such a thing. They've created an electrode for lithium-ion batteries that extends their lasting life by ten times after only charging them for one-tenth of the time it normally takes. After charging it 150 times witch would be a year it is still more efficient then a normal lithium-ion batteries.
Lithium-ion batteries in our devices have two major flaws: limited energy capacity and a slower-than-molasis recharge rate. This electrode eliminates these problems.

How could this be good/bad for the society? It is actually really really good because now people don't have problem charging their batteries all day long.

How did you find it?I was looking on the Discovery News and suddenly I stumbled over this very interesting article about batteries.

Did it come from a reliable resource? Yes,for sure Discovery is one of the most interesting things that is on the internet it is also safe and has a lot of reliable articles.

Why did you chose it? I chose it because I wanted to see if this is really true because I have a lot of problems with charging because sometimes I forget or sometimes its not on average but with this I can work all School week and still charge it in the weekend.

Italy's President Giorgio Napolitano is holding a series of meetings with senior politicians to try to agree on a new caretaker government. People hope that the new government will be named before the worlds financial markets re-open. Ex Eu commissioner Mario Monti remains to take the top job. The new prime minister will be responsible for implementing austerity measures aimed at tackling Italy's debt crisis, which last week saw its cost of borrowing rise to record levels. Mr Berlusconi degraded his parliamentary   

majority and made a promise to resign  once measures demanded by the EU and designed to restore markets. A lot of crowds start to protest and they also want to build a new government that might cost over 50 million. It is said that people are freaking out about this because the country will be in more debts and might not pay it back in three or more years.

How do you Know it was reliable? BBC always gives reliable facts and articles because they also have a TV channel and a news channel so that means they have to be reliable and they are reliable. 

How did you feel reading it? I thought it is not fare to the Italian Society that they have to live like this only because their government is spending and spending money. 

Why did you chose this article? I chose it because I never chose a article about governments and crises and all those stuff that other people have to deal with in their countries and what they need to to about it and what the government is doing wrong.
