Gun control - 0 views

  •  
    This article is about Obama, the current U.S. President, who is trying to outlaw guns by going behind the citizens backs and making it a crime for any citizen to own a gun by not stopping the U.N. from passing international gun control laws. This will allow the secretary of state, without consent from the citizens of the United States, to decide the gun control laws in our country and across the globe. This article came from CNN, which is a reliable news source. I fear Obama's actions are going to start a civil war if this actually happens because it would violate the second amendment right of all U.S. citizens by creating a larger global law banning guns. I am strongly opposed to the U.N. setting our country's gun control laws and want to protect my current rights as a U.S. citizen.

Colonists coming to the New World - 0 views

  •  
    The main points in this article are the settlements, population sources, the relationships with Native Americans, government, religion, and economy and population growth for the English, French and Spanish Colonies. The purpose of this article is to show the similarities and differences between the English, French and Spanish Colonists during the founding of the New World. There are many topics covered in this article, however the most important topic is the colonists and how they are different even though they came from the same continent: Europe. This articles is a comparison of the three colonists groups and which group would be the best suited to colonize the New World. This is a very useful source to use as notes or to help you debate a certain side, because it shows you the group's strong points as well as the drawbacks. Other sources that I have used only talk about on group of colonists and you really have to dig for answers, whereas this site is organized in a chart and all the information is right in front of you. This was very useful for my U.S. History class because this website showed the different groups of European colonists and their strengths and weaknesses.

    This website is incredibly useful for anyone looking up information for a job. It has every single job listed on there and it tells you the pay, the hours, and basically everything else you could possibly want to know about the job in interest. They have a very detailed entry in pharmacy and this proved the most useful site in my research in pharmacy.

UK government to intervene in Monsanto GM soy case - 0 views

  •  
    If you haven't heard of Monsanto and how they are the primary cause of why about 90% of soy grown in the U.S. is genetically modified, you might be living under a rock. Nevertheless, this article just informs the reader of how yet another company is filing suit against Monsanto, and this time in the UK.

Taliban - 0 views

  •  
    This article is about how the Taliban is, once again, attacking government buildings in Afghanistan like they do every spring when the weather warms up in the mountains. The reason they do this every spring is to try and regain control of the government of Afghanistan. It is my understanding that their motive is to control the global opium market and ultimate wealth. I believe this is reliable information because it is on the CNN website and they have a good reputation for accurate news. I have learned that the Taliban is very persistent and violent. I can't imagine living in a country where a violent terrorist group is trying to overthrow the government every spring. I feel that must be an unsafe place to live, work, and try and raise a family, and am glad I live in the U.S.

Tornadoes - 0 views

  •  
    In this article, a powerful spring storm system has caused tornadoes, killing 29 people in six states throughout the south east of the United States. It is a factual recall of a current event on CNN's website, which is a reliable news source. This article made me realize how serious the storms in the southeastern U.S. were and the magnitude of their death toll. It also made me glad to live in the northeast where tornadoes are very rare.

In the Beginning - Virginia Hamilton - 0 views

  •  
    This is a compilation of creation stories from small tribes around the world. From Navajo people of the southwestern U.S. to remote tribes traced to the island of Madagascar. This was a tremendous source to get me started on understanding the variety of creation myths, and seeing the commonalities in a very succinct form. The book is also well illustrated which makes it more fun, and easy to read.
