Those who had two black teachers were 32 percent more likely to enroll in college. jparrett3 https://padlet.com/jparrett3/etd72fwkkcb2hts4/wish/627217236 https://www.usnews.com/news/education-news/articles/2018-11-23/black-teachers-improve-outcomes-for-black-students]]> 2020-06-15 12:01:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jparrett3/etd72fwkkcb2hts4/wish/627217236 Positive views UwU https://padlet.com/jparrett3/etd72fwkkcb2hts4/wish/627353929 To be quite frankly, right now there are a lot of things that aren't going great. Especially with this pandemic going on. But instead of looking at it in such a negative way. We should think about how we are experiencing something that not everyone said that they have experienced before. Another positive thing is that this is the last week of school and summer is next, and I'm pretty sure all of you guys love summer to come :)

(Of those stops, 70% were completely innocent.) Black Americans are more likely than white Americans to be arrested. Once arrested, they are more likely to be convicted, and once convicted, they are more likely to experience lengthy prison sentences. On average, Black men in the US receive sentences that are 19.1% longer than those of white men convicted for the same crimes.

Did you know that good news is more likely to be shared through social media than bad reports? https://padlet.com/jparrett3/etd72fwkkcb2hts4/wish/627455561 Is this opinion or a credible source with statistics to back it. Name? Unfortunate news tends to be more likely to sell faster as uprisings, riots, “earthquakes, floods, fires, — the more suffering and mayhem, the more coverage.” Psychology has found that good news can outspread more quickly than negatively-impacting accounts. On news programs the more unacceptable it is the more likely people will pay attention to it as those on the news don’t care how you are feeling as long as you watch/listen. On social media, people tended to post articles, videos, or pictures that are exciting, funny, or mildly interesting. This is due to you following friends and family that care how you are feeling with them wanting to brighten your day. Humankind learns through what they hear, read, taste, touch, or smell, some of that knowledge is provided by other persons, the majority preferring good news to bad.

By allowing people an outlet of relaxing and having another way to go into another world, they are able to feel calm and worry less about problems. Before, people would look to breathing exercises and other therapeutic things, but nowadays, they can also rely on video games to take out some, if not all, the stress they have.

In a deep cave below Romania's Constanta Country, there lies Movile Cave. It remained cut off from society for 5.5 million years, and probably for good reason. There's a whole new ecosystem pf organisms living inside of that cave, eating on carbon dioxide and methane. Because of the gasses and poisonous gasses that lie in the cave, Romanian is only allowing  100 people in the area at a time for discovery. With that only 48 species of the seen species only 33 are new. 
In my opinion, 2020 is now over, because we now got creatures that were sealed off from us, and probably sealed off for a reason ,now out.

Due to the slow speed and the ant’s strong exoskeleton which braces it for impact, they do not suffer any damage from falling at any height and the impact would have been the same as if it had fallen a few centimetres."

About half said they felt time dragged and a quarter indicated that time passed more quickly than normal. The remaining quarter reported that they didn't experience a change in the passage of time. In April, about 10% of our sample moved from feeling like time dragged to feeling like time flew. More people were feeling relaxed and calm, and interestingly, it was these positive feelings, along with the perception of time flying, that predicted whether people would engage in social distancing.

One group that does have a vested interest in doing so is the U.S. military. An analysis of data from the federal Shelf Life Extension Program, published in May 2006 by the Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, found that 88% of 122 drugs from 3,005 lots had 90% or more potency one year past the expiration date, with an average extension of more than five years. Another study, published in November 2012 by Archives of Internal Medicine, assessed medications (mostly compound drugs) that were sealed in boxes and had expired 28 to 40 years prior. Overall, 12 of 14 compounds had retained 90% or more potency, and medications that stood the test of time included codeine, hydrocodone, and acetaminophen. “The only one that broke down was aspirin. The aspirin was only at 1% of what was supposed to be in it,” said Dr. Paauw."
