Benjamin 'Ben' Franklin
Benjamin Franklin was born on January 17, 1706. His family lived in Boston, Massachusetts. His father's name was Josiah and his mother's name was Abiah. Ben was their eighth child and they would later have two more. However, Josiah already had seven children from his first marriage. So, Ben knew a lot about growing up in a BIG family! He had nine brothers and seven sisters! Ben's father, Josiah, worked as a candle and soap maker and made sure that each of his sons learned a trade. Josiah had plans for Ben to enter the clergy, so he sent him to the Grammar School. Ben quickly learned to read and write but he did not do well in Arithmetic. Soon, Josiah changed his mind about Ben and took him out of school. Ben began to work in Josiah's candle and soap business, but Ben was not happy. Josiah then decided that Ben could learn the printing business. So, at age twelve, Ben became an apprentice in his brother James' printing office. Even as a boy, Ben Franklin loved to read. Once, he read a book about swimming and quickly taught himself the basic swimming strokes. He built himself wooden paddles for his hands and feet to help him swim faster. He used a kite in the breeze to pull him along, making it easier to swim. Later, he read a book about eating meat and decided to try being a vegetarian. He figured it was healthier, but also that he could save money. He also liked to write. However, no one was interested in what a young boy had to say. So he wrote secretly, using the name Silence Dogood, and slipped his stories under the door of his brother's print shop. His brother published the stories in his newspaper and everyone loved to read them. Later, when James found out who Silence Dogood really was, he was angry with Ben and their relationship was never the same.

72. Benjamin Franklin As A Scientist
Focuses on franklin's contributions to the world of science. Includes related experiment.
http://sln.fi.edu/franklin/scientst/scientst.html
In the 1700s, a scientist was someone who thought about the way things work and tried to figure out ways to make things work better. Today, that definition is still true. Every time Ben Franklin saw a question and tried to answer it, he was a scientist. Every time you ask a question and try to get an answer, you too are a scientist. Ben is most famous for his questions about electricity , but he also experimented with many other ideas in nature. In 1743, Ben observed that northeast storms begin in the southwest. He thought it was odd that storms travel in an opposite direction to their winds. He predicted that a storm's course could be plotted. Ben rode a horse through a storm and chased a whirlwind three-quarters of a mile in order to learn more about storms. So, in a way, Ben was a weatherman too! He even printed weather forecasts in his almanack. Today's meteorologists don't chase storms on horseback, but they do continue to plot the course of storms. Since Ben spent so much time sailing to Europe across the Atlantic Ocean, he became very interested in both ocean currents and shipbuilding. Ben was actually one of the first people to chart the Gulf Stream. He measured its temperature on each of his eight voyages and was able to chart the Stream in detail. In November of 1783, Ben happened to be in Paris, France working on a Peace Treaty to end the American war against England. From his hotel window, he was able to watch the world's first known

Hi there... My name is Logan and I am 6 years old. I live in "The Valley Of The Sun" - Phoenix, Arizona - with my Mom, Tammy - my big sister, Caitlin - and two big brothers - Tim (he's 12) and Charles (he's 8)
That's right - I'm the BABY and I like it that way!!
I spend most of my time playing outside with my brother, Charles and all the neighborhood boys (this place is full of them!) Jonathon, Lucas, Cameron and Connor are my closest buds. I love to make up new tricks on my skateboard and my all time favorite thing to do is play with my Yu-Gi-Oh cards. I am doing great in first grade (I'm a pretty smart kid!) and as my teacher says, I keep her laughing all the time. I am still working on raising my hand though - hey ... I always have an opinion and I want to let everyone know what I am thinking!

Benjamin Franklin
1706 - 1790, amerikanischer Politiker, Naturwissenschaftler und Schriftsteller
Benjamin Franklin wurde am 17. Januar 1706 in Boston, Massachusetts geboren.
Als Franklion zehn Jahre alt war mußte er die Schule verlassen, um seinen Vater, einem Krämer und Seifenmacher zu helfen. Als er jedoch kurz darauf sein Interesse an Büchern entdeckte, wechselte er seine Tätigkeit und ging bei seinem Bruder, einen Buchdrucker zur Lehre. Er beendete seine Ausbildung zum Buchdrucker in London und begann 1726, sich in Philadelphia eine eigene Buchdruckerei aufzubauen.
1743 sah Franklin eine Vorführung eines englischen Wissenschaftlers, der Experimente mit Elektrizität vorführte. Franklin war begeistert und kaufte dem Wissenschafter die gesamte Gerätschaft ab. Ab 1745 begann er mit eigenen Experimenten und gab auch sehr bald seine Buchdruckerei an einen Partner ab.
Die Elektizität wurde damals als wissenschaftlich nicht sehr bedeutend angesehen. Anstelle von ernsthafter Forschung stand zumeist das Bestreben, sich neue spannende Taschenspielertricks einfallen zu lassen. Auch Franklin arbeitete an zunächst solchen Taschenspielertricks. Doch im Gegensatz zu vielen seiner Kollegen versuchte er auch die physikalischen Prinzipien seiner Erfindungen zu verstehen.

Franklin, Benjamin
b. Boston, MA 17 Jan 1706 d. Philadelphia, PA 17 April 1790 author, printer, scientist (electricity, physics, oceanography, meteorology), diplomat Benjamin Franklin, in addition to his other pursuits, was interested in promoting spelling reform. In 1768, while living in London, he wrote A Scheme for a new Alphabet and a Reformed Mode of Spelling , a reasonably accurate phonetic system for spelling English which, published in 1779, greatly influence Noah Webster. His new phonetic alphabet consisted of 26 symbols: the conventional letters c j q w x , and y were eliminated as redundant and six new characters, were devised for sounds for which he thought there was no unambiguous orthographic representation; see Fig. 1 . The remaining letters of the traditional Roman alphabet were retained but their sound value was strictly defined according to the principle 'one symbol (or unique digraph), one sound'. Thus g could only represent the voiced velar stop, as in give, never the voiced palatal affricate, as in gentle . This affricate and its voiceless counterpart (as in chew ) he represented by clusters of stop plus palato-alveolar fricative (the fricative portion being the voiceless one in both cases). Other notable features of his system are: 1) the use of double vs. single vowel letters to stand for long vs. short vowels, e.g.
