Venus would allow scientists to float above the fray. Imagine also a blimp-like vehicle hovering 30 miles above the roiling Venusian landscape. Jet airplanes travel and fly over many storms. NASA is working on more apporaches to study Venus and learn more , the good and the bad. They have enormously powerful computers that works with mechanical ,pressure, heat and other forces. "vehicle hovering over Venus would avoid the unfriendly ground conditions by staying up and out of their way." temperatures would still be toasty at around 170 degrees Fahrenheit so humans would feel nice and tostey but its also not easy conditions, but survivable for humans.

Imagine a city empty of cars and the sounds of bicycles and the sound of chattering children drown out the sound of the occasional motor, This is the city of Vauban. This "experimental" district on the ouskirts of Freiburg. Elisabeth Rosenthal, author of In German Suburb, Life Goes On Without Cars stated "Street parking, driveways and home garages are generally forbidden in this experimental new district...Vauban's streets are completely "car-free" —except the main thotoughfare, where the tram to downtown Freiburg runs. Car ownership is allowed but there are two places to park —large garages at the edge of the development where a car owner buys a space, for $40,000, along with a home." This action has inspired some other areas to do the same, As said by Rosenthal, "Vauban, completed in 2006, is an example of a growing trend in Europe, The United States and elsewhere to seperate suburban life from auto use, as a component of a movement called "smart planning."". Now these have been a bit more of pre-emptive measures against Pollution and economic inflation there are those who have taken actions after the fact, Robert Duffer, author of Paris bans driving due to smog has said "After days of near-record pollution, Paris enforced a partial driving ban to clear the air of the global city." Now here is where Paris decided to do something silly. "On Monday motorists with even-numbered license plates were ordered to leave their cars at home or suffer a 22-eruo fine ($31). The same would apply to odd-numbered plates the following day." as stated by Duffer. Now alot of people may not of heard about this or thought it was a joke, Duffer wrote "Almost 4,000 drivers were fined... 27 people had their cars impounded for their reaction to the fine." To the people who had heard of this such as companies who their main function is driving from place to place had complained, "Delivery Companies complained of lost revenue, while exceptions for plug-in cars, hybrids, and cars carrying three or more passengers." said by Duffer. All of these exceptions that were given out sound as though they are personal transport vehicles that the passengers could just as easily take the public transport.

How much do we know of Venus? Not much except it´s a planet in space along with the other planets. But who knows what might be in that planet.

First off, Venus is one of the brightest points of light, making it simple for stargazers. Often called the Ëvening Star" but the nickname can be misleadinng since the planet Venus is...well a planet. While also very simple to see from the distant safe advantage of Earth, it proves to be a very challenging place to examine more closer. It makes you wonder what´s even that planet to study about. Next, Venus´ surface has their temperature average over 800 degrees and the atmospheric pressure is 90 times greater than we experience on our planet. The planet´s conditions Venus has is way more extreme than we thought it would be that we wouldn´t be accustomed to the second we even try to get there. Beyond the high pressure and the heat, Venusian geology and weather present some impediments like volcanoes that can erupt, earthquakes, and frequent lightning strikes to seek land onto its surface. No wonder why Venus is fascinatiing in some people´s eyes. Lastly, going over to Venus with a ship orbiting or hovering safely far above the planet can only have a limit insight on ground conditions since most of the forms can´t penetrate the dense atmosphere. It´s important to know that researchers cannot take samples of any rock, grass, or anything else in the distance. So if trying to seek to a conduct would have to resolve in getting close and personal despite any risks to do it.

It will be harder for parents to do what they have to do. Especially if you have a family and walking a distance when your car could be at your house with you. Its not right to have car owner space along with a home because some people cant afford to pay all that money. If people give up their cars just to move. While there have have been efforts in the past two decades to make cities denser, and better for walking ,planners are now taking concepts to the suburbs. Vauban may be the nost advanced experiment in low-car suburban life. I dont think stores should be placed a walk way on a main street rather than in malls along some distant highway. Many experts expect public transport serving suburbs to play a much larger role in a new six-year federal transportation bill be approved. Street parking,driveways and home garages should be forbidden in this experimental new district .

Luke reason he joined the program was because he had two part time joby and his friends where going and they asked him if he wanted to go. And Luke could not say no so he went. And he would be missing an opportunity in his life time. Lukes 2 part time jobs where working at a store and a bank. It was 1945 world war 2 Luke and Don signed up to feed the animals. They has to fees 335 horses. They also had to feed cows, and mules that they had to feed. It was August 1945 , The boys just recived their order reports to new Orlans. Luke is now 18 year sold Luke said that they had a sight seeing of Europe and China. It took 2 weeks to cross the Atlantic Ocean. And It took a month to get to China. Luke surved as a night watch man. He had to feed the animals every hour. So that way they did not have to starve. And cry all night for food and water to eat and drink. A small strip of metal along the edge stopped his slide, keeping him from flying overboard into the dark Atlantic. He was happy to be alive. But he couldn’t work for a couple of days because of cracked ribs. Luke also found time to have fun and he got to play volleyball, table tennis,boxing and fencing but this happend after they unloaded the animals then they got to have fun and enjoy their time. Luke crossed the Atlantic Ocean 16 times and he crossed the PAcific Ocean twice to help people affected by World War 2.

If the school was able to bring a high number of dedicated students together to join clubs they would see vast improvements in the success of their activities. These students would be given even more motivation to join the club they love, bringing the best out of them and allow them to join clubs that they know they have interest in.

This occurs due to a lack of motivation from anyone in school urging the students to join an extracurricular activity. Parents can only do so much for their kids when it comes to what their kids do in school, and some kids find ways to get out of joining any clubs.

With every student participating in a club students would spread out amongst the various clubs offered at their school, creating groups of dedicated people who are trying to learn as much as possible to that topic. Currently schools face the problem of kids all gravitating towards the same clubs, such as Science Olympiad and Math Counts. If students don't get into these clubs or feel as though they aren't going to be able to do anything with these highly competitive clubs, they drop out and find themselves having nothing to do outside of school. Many students feel defeated and neglected after they don't do well in these clubs and find it hard to join any other club, for fear that the same tale may happen again. Because of this, hundreds of students intellectual abilities are being wasted. The current issue we face is a lack of students joining clubs after they are shunned away from another club, that is why we need the policy of at least one extracurricular activity per student.

The problem we face with not having a policy of each student participating in at least one after-school activity, is that we have students who are immensely talented who are not motivated enough to be a part of a club. If the school was to have this policy every student would benefit from it as they are given a far greater reason to join a club. With the various advantages of creating this policy and minor drawbacks, each school should at least make an attempt to enact a policy that would not only help students but the school as a whole. With students having the added motivation to join the clubs offered at their schools, with the added diversity to the school, there is no reason a school should make an attempt to complete a policy like this. The principal at all schools should try to implement a policy that makes students participate in the after-school offerings that their school has.

Choosing the topic allows the student to truly express themselves and talk about something they enjoy. They won't feel as if they are being forced to do a topic they do not want to do. It will allow them to speak and explain something that they are passionate about. This will later help teachers learn more about what their students are interested in. If they are doing a project on something they enjoy it is likely they will put more effort into the project to make sure it is good work and not just some garbage quickly thrown together at the end of summer.

They will have more motivation to do it because it can be on something they like. A lot of times teacher will get a lot of trashy work from students because they procrastinated the project all summer. The students will procrastinate the project till just a few days before school starts up because they do not enjoy the project topic. With the students given the ability to choose the topic there will be lowered procrastination in summer projects due to students enjoying the topic and wanting to do the work.

But, schools will have a raise in student participation with the summer project if schools allow them choice of their own topic. Schools will notice students doing their summer projects that didnt do them the prior year when the topic was assigned. As well as letting the students choose their own topic schools are letting the students let their teacher know a little bit about themselves with whatever topic they choose. This allows the teachers to better understand their students before the year really kicks off.

the students are more likely to do their project because it is something they want to do. Teachers would not be putting as many zeros in their grade book to start the year off. There would be an upsurge in the amount of effort students would be putting into their work. Teachers would also get to know their students in reading their summer projects and could use the information they learned about the student to better their schooling that year. All in all having a student choose the topic of their summer project would be a very positive aspect to a long timed disliked project.

Many have claimed that the human face found on Mars is an alien artifact, but how certain are they. According to NASA, the Face on Mars is just a rock formation that resembles the face of a human, but others may disagree.

To further investiate this topic, we will begin by analyzing how the Face was formed and how it compares to lanforms on Earth, where it was located, and what causes others to believe that it is an alien artifact.

According to the passage, the picture portrays the "Martian equivalent of a butte or mesa- landforms common around the American West. The passage also claims that the image reminds him of the "Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho," and that the Face on Mars is about he same height of an isolated mesa- which is a landform.

A few scientists believed that the Face was an alien artifact, and photographing the Cydonia became one of the biggest priorities for NASA. As soon as the Viking mission was ended, the chief scientist of NASA's Mars Exploration Program stated that they "photographed the Face as soon as they could get a good shot at it." I believe they did this to clarify their foundings.
