    The first tenet is evolution which means that organisms change through time. The second is descent without modification meaning, evolution proceeds through the branching of common descent, offspring are similar but are not exact replicas of their parents. The third is gradualism, meaning that all change is slow and steady; with enough time small changes can change to large changes. The fourth is multiplication, meaning that evolution doesn’t only produce new species, it also produces an increasing number of new species. The fifth tenet is natural selection, meaning evolutionary change is not random, it follows a selective process.…

    The Articles of Confederation were incapable of providing the United States with an effective form of government. The Articles of Confederation presided weakly over the government as it allowed little or no power to tax, control trade, and branches of government were missing. In addition to this, the thirteen states acted as separate nations and the national government had little control over them.…

    I article I chose was in the magazine, Popular Mechanics called, “We Can See the Future from Here.” This article was about a man named Alex Kipman and his high-tech invention. He had recently overseen the failed debuted of Windows Vista and left Microsoft to go on a sabbatical. During his sabbatical to Brazil he found out exactly where he wanted to be with a new invention; The HoloLens. This magical device helps people see like nothing before. A soft grey ring (like a halo) fits over your head and another piece hovers in front of your eyes (a clear shield with two sets of lenses). A soft piece of silicon fits on your forehead that contains many sensors; cameras, motion detectors, coordinate system etc. HoloLens can tell what the room looks like, where you are and what is in your field of vision. HoloLens follows your gaze around your setting and you can project a hologram to another person. Microsoft has slowly debuted this in different areas of the world, they found people treat the holograms like avatars. They do not get too close, and treat computers like machines. His invention has also inspired another company to create OnSight; which was used to take pictures (we already had) of Mars and together creating an immersive Martian environment to experience. The article ends with the…

Usually, they just have fun and enjoy themselves, but sometimes problems occur. Teenagers who are bored and looking for something to do are likely to get into trouble and become involved in unhealthy, inappropriate or illegal activities.…

    It has almost been thirty years since we achieved our 'independence' during the time of the Revolutionary war. Yet the British continue to disregard our so called independence by colluding with Tecumseh and his tribes, making it impossible for American merchants to trade goods with either France or Britain, as well as seizing American ships and capturing our sailors. The time for independence is now. Folks we have been weighed down because of the British for far too long now, and have not been respected at all by those savages across the ocean. As a result, we have been left no choice. It is time for war!…
