New islands off Japan

A new island has roused off the cost of Japan following a massive earth quack that hit the big country The island is very small about 200 metres wide and it might not last that long because it's made out of volcanic rock that erodes quite easily.

It was created by a volcanic eruption under the sea bed which forced lava and rock to burst through the     surface of the water.

The molten rock has then cooled and hardened on the water,turning it into a mini island.The new island was spotted due to the massive cloud of smoke blowing out in to the air.

new pod cars

On kiwi kids news I read about these  new  pod cars the vehicles can drive by themselves and there are electric powered they can go 16 km h there are in the UK they think that they are coming out in about 2015 to 2017 that is a long time from now so we will have to wait abit in New Zealand. So we will have to wait 2 or 4 years this will be the new way to get around the country. And if you are going for long rides in the new pod cars you can go to sleep instead of staying up to drive.  

And all so the government  is  funding  some money to help  the people to make  it  happen so that all of us will be riding around in 2017 or 2015 by then even one will have all smart phones

even old nans I can not wait to the pod cars come out in the world.

comments

it will be better if there was no driver because if you are drank you can you can prevent car crashes and more road safe.

and it can stop medicated people from crashing.
