Last Post:(

1) Stay focused. If you get down to business you can achieve anything that you set your mind to.

2) Read. If you don't get into reading now, you might never will.

3) Listen. Open your ears and be ready to absorb (like a sponge)...

4) Sleep. If you get too little sleep your body wont get the right amount of proper energy.

5) Be on time. Not only do you get more learning, the teachers also like you.

6) Be on time to Mr. Moore's class. He will take away points at the end of the quarter.

7) Love your family. They will love you more than they love themselves.

8) Never give up. Always set goals and be ready for the rocky roads in life.

Thank you so much for a wonderful year Than-Fans. I sadly have to go.

Over and out.

Intro essay

Albus Dumbledore once said, “It takes a great deal of courage to stand up to your friends, but even more to stand up to your friends”. In the novels that Shmuel, Tom, and Ellie starred in, a great deal of courage was exposed in all three of them. They all were victims of punishments that they didn’t deserve but it still happened. Tortured, beaten, and discriminated against yet, they we're the ones that endured the brutal consequences. If one perseveres and tries to change the world then they will. People can make a difference in this world and it all starts with the courageousness of one and then it spreads like wildfire. As seen in Shmuel, Ellie, and Tom Robinson’s stories, courage can help transform the world for the better.

Inovations

Hello Than-fans. Today we are going to talk about the biggest innovation in the world. Modern farming and agriculture.

We have been able to sustain over 7 billion people and we keep growing. Is this just some voodoo magic. No this is real life. People have worked their whole lives to keep other people alive and they are thriving. We do produce a lot of pollution into the air but we are also trying to stop that as well. We as humans have to look out for each other and this is the first of many steps to help sustain the rapid growth of the human race.

Love
     The OG Than-Fan.

Progressive Era

Hey Than-Fans,
      I know I haven't blogged in a while so here it goes (don't judge if I'm still a little rusty from the long break).

What three issues are still around today that were issues in the Progressive Era?

1. FDA regulations. People say that food is healthy and safe in grocery stores, but s that completely true? Is it just a coincidence that America still has the highest percent of obese people in one country? I don't think so. People can pretty much sell what ever they want to, even if they are inspected for harm to humans, but yet, people still get away with disgusting foods on our shelves.

2. Women's rights. People tell you that women have the same opportunities as men, but men working the same job as women almost get a full dollar more per hour. If you think that is equal, then you must have a very corrupt mind.

3. Environment. If you think that global warming is a joke that you should look at the statistics of the gradual rise in temperature. People are masting so much fuels and burning so much energy. We are at a record high of air pollution and this needs to stop.

Thank you Than-Fans. Always a treat!

Can I Transform The World?

Hey Than-Fans,
Today I have a more serious question to ask. How do you want to transform the world?

I want to be a person that helps people not one that is rude or prudent. I want to make my mark and be the person that you walk past and say "he is someone that I want to be with".

How can I transform the world? I would love to donate my time and money to funds or non-profits. I think that this is the person that I would want to be like if I was looking at him like a role model.

Thanks Than-Fans,
         Ethan

Who is the most inspirational person in my life?

Hey Than-Fans,
     Im coming back with a cosmic blog! Today I will explain who is the most inspirational person in my life.

This is very hard for me to decide but I have thought about it and he is Martin Luther King.

I was touched by his I Have A Dream speech and it helped shape some of my morals today. I enjoyed how he spoke, stood up for others, and most importantly said what was on his mind. He helped shape so of the most important ideas or concepts that people use every day.

I still have a lot to learn but I know that MLK has shaped some of the most important ideas that I use every day.

Thanks a lot Than-Fans,

Your Leader (Ethan)

General's Lee's Post

Dear Diary,
     Today was a gory one. Blood is still spattered on my muscular thighs. I am petrified at what I have seen over these last few days. All of the wounds that my master has acquired. I haven't seen something as gruesome as when a soldier was shooting a cannon and it blew up in his face. I wanted to cry but horses can't cry. Some days I wish that I was home in my pen. Alone and isolated from all of the gunshots and terror that I hear on a daily basis. I know that I am fighting for my master but it is just wrong. Not only does he kill people but, he slaughters them. Not stopping until everyone who didn't believe what he did was dead.I just hope that these murders will end soon.

Over and Out

Hope you liked it Than-Fans.
