Starting from May of this year, McDonald's will be substituting frozen patties for fresh beef. This is part of an extensive campaign to make food more healthy, especially for the children. I believe this article is important because fast food is such a significant portion of our food palette nowadays. The resulting  obesity epidemic has brought the issue of healthy eating to our attention, and has stimulated creation of stricter guidelines across the board. ]]> 2018-03-06 18:17:04 UTC https://padlet.com/cvanpatten1/yoxxd166skqv/wish/238793675 https://padlet.com/cvanpatten1/yoxxd166skqv/wish/238794179 Link: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/arts-and-entertainment/wp/2018/03/05/the-anti-trump-oscars-were-a-ratings-disaster-conservatives-are-delighted/?utm_term=.cf29db1af193 

This article is about how Liberal Hollywood turned the Oscars into Politics which in turn just hurt their ratings. The ratings for the Oscars this year were very low. I believe this article is important because it serves as a wake up call for Hollywood to stop constantly trying to bring politics into everything, such as events like the Oscars. The public does not like it, and it just hurts the liberal numbers which is the opposite of what was intended.]]> 2018-03-06 18:17:52 UTC https://padlet.com/cvanpatten1/yoxxd166skqv/wish/238794179 https://padlet.com/cvanpatten1/yoxxd166skqv/wish/238796557 https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/06/opinion/democrats-trump-dodd-frank.html?action=click&pgtype=Homepage&clickSource=story-heading&module=opinion-c-col-left-region&region=opinion-c-col-left-region&WT.nav=opinion-c-col-left-region

The educational institute, Kiddie Junction told parents that teachers used the latest child development research to instill love of learning in the children. Three employees were arrested for giving children gummy bears dosed in melatonin and over the counter sleep hormone. Unknown how long the drugging has been going on. Caregivers thought gummies would not be harmful to the children. even though on the label says it could not be taken by anyone younger than 16. None of the children appear to be negatively affected but one. Melatonin isn't fatal but it has an impact on children's hormones]]> 2018-03-06 18:25:58 UTC https://padlet.com/cvanpatten1/yoxxd166skqv/wish/238799936 https://padlet.com/cvanpatten1/yoxxd166skqv/wish/238800782 Tips on how people can be active in the world and speak up for what they believe in

A new colony of Adélie penguins have been found near Antarctica, increasing the known populations of the creatures. I believe that this is important because the discovery of the greater number of penguins will help to ensure that conservation efforts will focus on keeping them safe. The penguins will be kept from becoming endangered. ]]> 2018-03-06 18:27:55 UTC https://padlet.com/cvanpatten1/yoxxd166skqv/wish/238801283 https://padlet.com/cvanpatten1/yoxxd166skqv/wish/238801531 http://time.com/5179977/assisted-suicide-couple-death/

This is important because the Texans owner said that he would not be interested in signing players that kneeled for the anthem. Many people are divided on this issue, and it is important to show that one owner shows respect for the players' decisions to voice their opinions.

Pet cloning services are increasing to create an emotional bridge that might help a dog owner “let go.” Cloning is already a deep controversy in our culture. Pet cloning reinforces the status of dogs as things to buy and collect, and as sentimental tokens and emotional support objects. Dogs should be valued for their individuality and own personality. However, instead, humans are preserving because of our feelings of them. This is unhealthy for both the owners and dogs, and does not show the truth of saying good-bye.]]> 2018-03-06 18:30:47 UTC https://padlet.com/cvanpatten1/yoxxd166skqv/wish/238803123 https://padlet.com/cvanpatten1/yoxxd166skqv/wish/238814489 I thought it was interesting how there are so many murdered Russian officials and agents, and nothing will change for a long time. ]]> 2018-03-06 18:46:18 UTC https://padlet.com/cvanpatten1/yoxxd166skqv/wish/238814489
