If the US were to go after ISIS, it would only increase conflicts with Iraq and Syria, with war on the horizon if not already. If the US were to not go after them, social media would talk non-stop on how we are not trying to help captive United States citizens, allowing ISIS to threaten our country and surely much more.
 Fighting always seems to be the inevitable answer when it comes to conflicts but is sadly to be expected with the beheading of jouranlist James Foley. I personally believe it would be a better idea for the US to not go after ISIS and refrain from making any more conflicts between the two countries. As sad as it sounds, trying to rescue the captives is somewhat a waste of money, men, and resources (assuming that all the captives aren’t important figures and/or hold no vital information). It would only cause more problems that may very well end tragically.

Theories about creations are filled with gigantic holes that none can explain. The biggest of such is the Big Bang Theory. This theory states that there was nothing at all, but a bunch of chemicals just popped out of nowhere and created the universe. The idea of this defies common logic. Nothing cannot create something. And this theory of "a meteor killed the dinosaurs" is far fetched and stupid and once again defies logic. If a meteor that size and effect impacted earth it would have completely destroyed earth and everything on it and the impact crater would still be there. And if it did destroy the dinosaurs, how come there are still dinosaurs such as crocodiles and alligators and sea creatures such as plaeosaurs (rumored) still exist? Its very far fetched to think that something that catastrophic destroyed billions of animals and left no trace of impact and the fact that our planet is still here and able to sustain life. The real reason why the dinosaurs are extinct is The Great Flood of the bible. There is evidence that the entire earth was submerged by water at one point and that the continents were moved from immense amounts of pressure (the weight of the water covering the earth.) and it makes sense that certain animals such as crocodiles and other prehistoric creatures are still here, because God had them put into the ark. Another thing that makes sense is that the oldest structures and artifacts in the world are found in and around the area that Noah and his family landed after the flood waters descended. ]]> 2016-10-11 02:03:48 UTC https://padlet.com/missmccalister/pf2a1jotl2wp/wish/129672852 AOW #9.

So what exactly cause this mass extinction? It's a question that many paleontologists have been pondering. There have been many theories regarding how dinosaurs died. For instance, speculations such as volcanic activity, climate change, and limited food supply have all been taking into consideration with the disappearance of dinosaurs. Now, scientists are stating that dinosaurs died from an asteroid hit. Personally, I do not agree with this theory because I believe that it's just another supposition. If an asteroid did hit the Earth, I believe that it would cause serious damage but not to the extent of killing dinosaurs off the face of the Earth. ]]> 2016-10-12 02:59:20 UTC https://padlet.com/missmccalister/pf2a1jotl2wp/wish/130016240 AOW #9 4th Jaylen Louis, Dinosaurs jaylenlouis1999 https://padlet.com/missmccalister/pf2a1jotl2wp/wish/130018615 If dinosaurs still were here on Earth, the world would be very different. Some dinosaurs are vicious creatures and can't be around any of the humans because it would try to kill them. Some dinosaurs would actually be nice and useful based off what type of dinosaur it is.

If the soot blocked out sunlight and rain how could the dinosaurs do everyday things. In the passage it says "the layer of soot would have blocked about 85% of sunlight from reaching Earth and cut rainfall by nearly 80%, creating near-drought conditions. And because the sunlight decreased so drastically, temperatures would have plunged by up to 60 degrees Fahrenheit. If temperatures fell rapidly how would the dinosaurs adjust and grow with the coldness that came about. I agree with the theory that the soot was the cause of extinction and that dinosaurs roamed the Earth many years ago. ]]> 2016-10-12 06:36:55 UTC https://padlet.com/missmccalister/pf2a1jotl2wp/wish/130033694 5th, Harris, Darius, Dinosaurs, week 9 https://padlet.com/missmccalister/pf2a1jotl2wp/wish/130122000 I agree with the theory that soot created the mass extinction of the living creatures in the Dinosaur age. The soot was in through out most of the air blocking 85% sunlight and 80% of rainfall. Having harsh weather and causing the temperature to drop drastically. Dinosaur skins was not made to adjust to the cold air because they were cold blooded animals, they needed to be warm.

The scientist need to take in account all of the other environmental factors that would have been affecting the planet around the time that the asteroid hit.

There are many reasons why I do not agree with the theory. The main reason is because is was so long ago and we will never really know what happened. That is why people are paid so much money in funding to try and find out what really happened. Another reason why I don't agree is because other studies have proven the theory wrong. Like the fact that the sulfuric acid particles "don't hang around for very long after an asteroid impact." The soot theory just does not have a solid enough background to stand upon.

The reason I don't agree is because there would have been some type of evidence, such as a crater, in the Earth's soil. A  6-mile-wide chunk of rock  slamming into the would have left some type of major, permanent impact on the planet. Another reason I disagree is because the impact from the asteroid would've destroyed all life on Earth, not just the dinosaurs and other larger animals. There had to be another reason for the extinction of the dinosaurs. As the article states, " Crocodilians, birds, small mammals, and most ocean creatures survived .." meaning if an asteroid hit the Earth at a high speed the water temperature would've increased. But being that most ocean creatures lived then that theory probably didn't happen. ]]> 2016-10-13 14:20:48 UTC https://padlet.com/missmccalister/pf2a1jotl2wp/wish/130450664 4th, Goff, Emily, Dinosaurs, Week  https://padlet.com/missmccalister/pf2a1jotl2wp/wish/130488908 Do I believe the theory of the asteroid hitting the Earth? No, I do not. Only because there is no evidence to explain that there was ever an asteroid that hit Earth and killed the dinosaurs. I believe that there were dinosaurs at one point because there is very much evidence showing us that there were, such as their bones. There is no huge crater or any evidence really that an asteroid had anything to do with the killing of the dinosaurs.

One theory hypothesises that the climate became too wet, while another that the climate dried out to kill off the dinosaurs. The dinosaurs could have starved to death or died from overeating. Or their extinction may have been caused by a nutritional problem, such as flowering plants not providing the proper nutritional balance. Or the flowering plants could have gotten poisons that killed the dinosaurs. A variant on the poisoning theme is that poisonous insects evolved and stung the dinosaurs into extinction. Others thought the water became poisonous with chemicals. Another ingenious twist is that butterflies and moths evolved and the larvae stripped the plants of leaves causing the herbivores to pass away, bringing on the extinction of the carnivores. Another theory suggests the herbivorous dinosaurs simply changed their eating habits to a less suitable diet, causing the distinction of all the dinosaurs.

Also there were actually many dinosaurs that survived the initial impact, however most of the vegetation on earth had been reduced to ash and because of this the herbivore dinosaurs being so big could not find the food they needed and starved to death.

There are endless possibilities and I think this is something that we will possibly never know. This extinction is far beyond our time and measure; We can only give an assumption of what happened. Although, I believe that climate change had a strong effect on the animals. It could have let the displaced temperatures and deprivation of a lot of things like food. I do not believe that an asteroid came in contact with the earth because if it was true then a lot of things would be nonexistant.

The extinction of Dinosaurs could have happened in a dozen other ways but i do not think that this a possibility of how they could have become extinct. If there was a cloud the was still enough sunlight for them to live regardless. I do think the climate change was a major thing that could have an impact on them becoming extinct. Some believe that it was giant meteor. Some believe it was a volcanic eruption. It could all be a conspiracy and none of this even happened.

I don't agree with this theory. We can hardly be able to predict that with the knowledge we have now. For as much as we know  they could have turned into pixies. I don't trust scientists they can be dumb. We will never be sure on what really killed them but mabey one day we will make a time machine!

Ever since the world was created, Man has been here as well. Though, there's obvious evidence that dinosaurs existed.

However I do disagree with the fact that soot caused their existence. In the passage it said "the layer of soot would have blocked about 85% of sunlight from reaching Earth and cut rainfall by nearly 80%, creating near-drought conditions." this statement makes no sense because of how other other animals that also experienced that still exist. Sunlight is a major part of the ecosystem so blocking that much, would cause some plants to die, other animals besides dinosaurs also to die. In conclusion, I don't think we will ever understand how dinosaurs truly went extinct but in my opinion it is not this theory. ]]> 2016-11-14 17:51:01 UTC https://padlet.com/missmccalister/pf2a1jotl2wp/wish/137473130 4th.

One theory that the climate became too wet, while another that the climate dried out to kill off the dinosaurs. The dinosaurs could have starved to death or died from overeating. Or their extinction may have been caused by a nutritional problem, such as flowering plants not providing the proper nutritional balance. Or the flowering plants could have gotten poisons that killed the dinosaurs.]]> 2016-11-14 18:01:28 UTC https://padlet.com/missmccalister/pf2a1jotl2wp/wish/137478485 2nd, Nick Smith, AOW 9 https://padlet.com/missmccalister/pf2a1jotl2wp/wish/140055673 I agree that an asteroid impact was mostly responsible for the dinosaurs' mass extinction. As the article stated, the soot created by the fires that were result of the impact would have caused the dinosaurs' extinction, while sparing the lesser creatures like mammals, birds, and crocodilian creatures.

Although i take consideration of the theory that said an asetorid was smashed in to the earth . This could possibly be true or take part of what happened . Most people do not really pay attention to the fact that dinosaurs were huge and that they had to have large variety of food meals to stay alive . What if they just were being token care of or the weather was not fitting their status .

As we look at the world today and how everyday the world is changing the dinosaurs would not be able to survive. First off people are cutting down more and more trees everyday and so for those dinosaurs who ere omnivores they would probably be out of luck and then humans kill animals because you know we have to eat to so if a dinosaur who ate ate certain animals would also be out of luck .]]> 2016-12-15 00:19:39 UTC https://padlet.com/missmccalister/pf2a1jotl2wp/wish/143751725
