story for river of doubt
Story for the River of Doubt
Our former president Theodore Roosevelt and his son Kermit set out on a deadly mission. That mission was to explore the “River of Doubt.” They did this in the year 1912. They ended up finding 1000 km of the river of doubt. But the price for this mission was paid.
When Mr. Roosevelt and his son set out on this mission, they needed to just get away. They got a crew together and went on their way to the Amazon, but their mission went wrong. They didn’t have enough supplies and they were fighting disease. President Roosevelt came down with a high fever of 103 degrees. They found out he got the disease, malaria. He wanted to give up and take a lethal shot of morphine. He always carried this on him, this was a drug that killed pain but if you took too much it would kill you.
All that they had was each other and the few left in the group. They decided to not give up and keep moving on. When they were all out of supplies they had to rely on the Indians native to the river. The Indians would give them food and try to help them recover. But even though the Indians were so nice to them the guys would steals from the Indians and that would lead to fights between the two groups.
When they were at the end of their life they finally made it to the end and there was only Theodore, Kermit, and three group mates left. This was not a great way to get away from the action after losing the election because they almost killed themselves. They found out that they found 1000 km of land at the end. This is a great accomplishment but it came with a cost. That cost was the loss of men. Later in life after Theodore died, Kermit ended up committing suicide in his home in the 1940’s. The River of Doubt turned out to be very dangerous and they were lucky to make it out alive.

Id theft
She used a debit card and when the people stolen her card they already had money on the card. I feel that it is common because it can be so easy and people don't have a lot of money. All they need is a social security card and a credit card. Well you need to shread all of your mail and don't carry your social secrity cards on you. Also if someone calls you asking for your social security card don't give it to them. I think the person at blame is the person that steals the information because if they never tried to steal it then the other person wouldn't have to worry about protecting their cards.

New technologies
One of the up and coming technologies is robot that can do surgeries. It was made to take the human element out of the surgery. The potential of this is that it can do surgeries without making mistakes. A person will watch the surgery so that if they need to step in they can. Also the surgon can be a round the world and do it manually through the computer. The robotic surgery will be here in the future they need more time to perfect it though.

Jean Hoerni, invented the planar process which helped solve the surface instabilities through semiconductor devices. He did this in 1959, at the age around 25. He also promoted the advantages and use of his machine. If he didn't make this machine the circuit wouldn't of been made and we wouldn't be able to talk to people on the phone today.
Later in life he was entered in the electron devices group and the computer society. He got the John Scott award in 1966. he died January 12th , 1997. He died of myelofribrosis.

qr
1. your phone can decode these messages by taking a picture.
2. I believe that Qr codes are going to be big in the future. the purpose for these is to be able to be able to be able to see things on the move by your phone.
