Snack Foods

The food I had was Doritos and i was not surprised by the calories or serving size, because i always check my food labels. I try to stay away from these kind of foods because I know how bad they are for you, even though they might taste good.

On the date of October 10th, 1889 in Sagamore Hill in Oyster Bay, New York, at the Roosevelt residence Theodore’s son, Kermit was born. There has already been one other child in the house held, and there would be a few more to come. Kermit after attending Groton School attended Harvard in 1901. Being a freshman in college Kermit went to Africa on a Safari and then explored Europe, with his father Theodore. Three years later on November 5th, 1912 Election Day came about. The candidates were Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and Taft. Woodrow Wilson won, and beat Theodore by 2.2 million votes. Taft was out of the question, he came in last place. Roosevelt knew he would lose but he was not used to it because he has always won everything. Almost a year after Election Day Theodore took his son Kermit, a small group of men, and a Brazilian explorer by the name of Colonel Candido Rondon on an expedition throughout the Brazilian jungle and on the River of Doubt. The trip only took one year before they came back in 1914, loosing men to disease, dangerous rapids, and Indian attacks. On August 22, 1917 when Kermit was 28 became the honorary captain in the British army. A year later on August 26, 1918 he was also awarded the military cross. Then that same year his youngest brother Quentin was shot.  In 1925 Kermit and his other brother, Theodore Roosevelt II went to the Himalayas on a hunting trip. Then on July 4, 1943 Kermit commit suicide and shot himself.

The song was on the album “Seven Dreams” originally by Gordon Jenkins. Fifteen years after Johnny Cash wrote “Sweet Dreams: The Conductor” , the two songs were compared and some of the lyrics were word for words or only a couple of words were changed. Although, Johnny Cash’s song was a more talented piece, it was still copyright. In 1968 the out of court settlement was about one-hundred-thousand dollars.

Emerging Technology

A new emerging technology is "Noah" . This incandescent yellow capsule is made my a small Japenese company. It floats and it is used in the case of an earthquake or tsunami. It could save the lives of up to 4 adults. It is also water and fire resistant. "Noah" is made from enhanced fiber glass, and the sphere include a porthole window, air vents, and a bright yellow covering so it is easily noticed. The reason why it is a sphere is because it has to withstand hits, shocks, and landslides.

Jean Hoerni

Jean Hoerni is known for the invention “planar process”. This inclined the architecture and design of data processing systems. The planar process is located on the circuit board, and it enables you to get more information on a single chip. This allows computers and/or other devices to be smaller. Also our cell phones wouldn’t be able to store as much information and still be able to fit in our pocket.
This has changed the world in so many ways and without this invention it would be a lot harder. Without the “planar process” we would have computers the size of whole rooms, and we wouldn’t have laptops. Also without it, we probably wouldn’t have smart phones, or iPods. Both of these items are small and hold small memory chips. Without the planar process we wouldn’t have and small pieces of technology.
