Sontomayor For Supreme Court!!!!!!!!!

Elected by President Barack Obama to be a judge at the supreme court was announced today. This is a very significant event especially in the city of New York. It is important for us people of New York, our children and where she came from which was New York City housing homes, where a lot of violence occurs. She is now a role model in many children's futures and inspiration. I remember having a class discussion on how it is more harder to succeed and achieve your goals living in projects, then living in comfortable and rich neighborhoods, which she talks about. She changed my view on that conversation and now I believe that your surroundings and enviornment play a very big part on your future. She is now the talk of the town and people will look up to her as a person and role model. This even opened up my eyes and makes me want to go out and become what I want. She is incredibly intelligent especially with all of her accomplishments in the past and I do believe she deserves it with all of her hard work she has put into becoming a famous judge.

New Fossil Found!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There was a new fossil found in Germany just recently. The first public pictures were released today and many discovery's about it has been linked to todays animals. It is estimated to have died at 9 to 10 months and has four legs and a very long tail. Scientists believe it will be a window into primate evolution which seems to be very exciting. I hope myself that this will be a very good discovery leading to many more and will help find many more skeletal bones of our own ancestors. Scientists can't say that it can relate to or has been related to our own ancestors because of its skeletal shape and I doubt that it is related to our ancestors because it is so small and has a tail which us humans don't have. But I do believe it may help find any future skeletal bones in Germany or even outside of Germany because its such an old fossil. Also scientists have found a fossil of a turtle with eggs inside of it in Utah just recently which is very unusual and shows that there is still history to reveal out there and we are years away of finding more important fossils that may help reveal the actual evolution of humans.

Are our Diets Worsening??

I believe many people these days aren't taking there health as serious as they should. They take their jobs more serious and their school work more serious, but when it comes to their health they have no concern at all. I walk around and see people taking care of their cars more better then they take care of their own bodies. I believe taking care of your body and being concerned with your health is very important and monthly checkups to check for any health issues is some thing everyone should be doing. On Good Morning America this morning they showed that the human body on average consumes about a bowl of salt a year which is totally unhealthy according to studies. Doing physical activity daily and mixing in fruits and vegetables in your diet is the number one task to stayng healthy. If its walking up and down the stairs 5 times a day, to walking the dog for 30 minutes, playing basketball for an hour or for like people like me, dancing for about 2 hours a day. I am a person who is very concerned and up to date with my own health and try to stay on task and focused on maintaining a very healthy body weight. I try to stay away from a lot of salty and spicy foods, and eat a lot of bitter foods like apples, banannas, and peanuts. Staying healthy should be the number one concern for us people today.

Is The Swine Really Serious????

I don't think Swine Flu is that serious like other influenza in the past. Unlike SAR's which was a influenza that originated in China back in 2006, it is contagious through the touching or rubbing of skin. SAR's was an airborne flu which was very deadly and had deadly symptoms that could have killed you in days and hospitalized you with serious problems. I feel that the Swine Flu can be prevented by knowing about your surroundings and asking questions if you see anyone around you who is sick. Another way to prevent this influenza is to carry around any kind of disinfectint like a hand sanitizer, which kills germs instantly. If this flu was airborne there would most likely be no way to prevent it because you can breathe it in and have it the next day, but it is through touching which makes it hard to say it is a hard hitting flu. Also if you catch the Swine flu quickly and see a doctor you will eventually defeat it in about a week or so. But if you wait and let it sit in your body and let it do its part you can remain hospitalized for many days and get severly sick and maybe die.
