I chose distracted driving as my topic mostly because the day I chose my topic someone swerved into my lane and was close to hitting me. I could clearly tell that they were not paying attention, what was worse is that it was an adult. I wanted to show in my info graphic how prevalent distracted driving is and how many crashes it can cause. I also wanted to show how many states are banning cell phone use especially after our state recently enacted new legislation on the topic.

Fat Man
By Vidita Kannikeswaran and Amrish Karnik
One sunny day, when Mario Franchini was running his pizza shop just like any other day, he noticed that the amount of customers he'd had over the past week had greatly diminished. He was puzzled as to why he had no customers because his pizza was the most delicious, greasy pizza in the whole town.
Just as he was placing pieces of pepperoni on one of his signature delicious pizzas, he heard some commotion outside of the door. He stepped outside to see that there was a new restaurant right across from his, called "Organic Pizza" and it seemed to be extremely popular with the people. This made him mad.
He marched right over to Organic Pizza to yell at them for stealing his business. He slammed the door open and starting knocking over all the tables and chairs and throwing gross healthy vegetable pizzas on the floor. Just as he was about to throw a chair into the back wall, he was stopped by some unknown force.
"STOP RIGHT THERE" said a voice from behind him.
Mario Franchini turned around to see a flying green man covered in leaves and vegetables.
"I AM ORGANIC MAN! AND I WILL STOP YOU FROM DESTROYING THE HEALTH OF THESE PEOPLE!"
Mario Franchini was fuming with anger, causing him to turn into his alter ego: FAT MAN.
He grew to three times his size and began to pelt food everywhere and turn everyone into pizzas with his mind powers. He crushed all the tables and chairs with his fatness and completely destroyed the Organic Pizza Restaurant. Organic Man ran away screaming like a little girl.
The next day, Mario Franchini's Pizza was just as crowded as usual and Organic Man never bothered him again.
