Why do Babies have so many, gosh darn bones??

Image
Babies have existed for longer than humans have been around and have been thought to be the most adorable creature in the world. Why do people say that when they are unable to talk to us, whine all the time, and the biggest issue of them all is that they are built different from us, and us humans hate different. Now you may be thinking I have gone crazy saying that babies are not human and are built completely different from your standard human, but know it is all true. To dip your toes a little into the information, so I don't shock you with the facts too hard is that babies have three-hundred bones in their small body and yes some of them are made of cartilage, but they are bones nonetheless (choa.org, 3). Now that you know a bit more of the structure of these demons, I mean babies, let's have you know some more of how their body works. These creatures have things called growth plates all over their body and if any of them happen to get damaged some insane things can happen t

Wrestling is the oldest sport

  You may be reading the title and thinking to yourself, 'I have tons of articles showing that running is the oldest sport to date' And well you are not entirely wrong. Running has drawings in caves that date well over 15,000 years and has a record in 1829 BCE in Ireland showing it being competitive as well (oldest.org,17). But thats only one competition other than the Olympics in 776 BCE where both wrestling and running competed against each other (oldest.org, 17),(rockstarwrestling.com, 2). It seems wrestling has been out and around for longer than running with paintings in Egypt dating far back to 3000 B.C.E, showing belt wrestling (Editors of encyclopedia Britannica, 5). Running seems to be second oldest sport with all the information there is to back up wrestling, from my few biast sources. It does not show running having many dates other than the Olympics event and as well as the Ireland one.  But competition aside why has wrestling stayed so popular over 15,000 years, if

Thomas Edison did not Invent the light bulb.

 Adventure of the light bulb If Thomas Edison did not create the light bulb who did, you may be asking. That question cannot be easily answered since there is a lot that happened from the idea of the light bulb to the actual creation or perhaps the perfection, based on  your own opinions. How it all started was with Alessandro Volta who invented a way for generating electricity called the voltaic pile. After Volta the first person who started the journey of inventing the light bulb was Humphry Dary who made the first 'light bulb' but burned out too quickly and was too bright. He was not the only one who struggled on inventing the light bulb, there were many others like Waren De La Rue and William Saite who's inventions were too costly. There was then Joseph Swan who fixed all those issues but his invention was not as practical as it seemed. After that time there was a Canadian inventor who created the first actual light bulb in 1874 but was unable to sell it to the public a

My blogs and I. Self-Assessment.

Criteria All my blogs have met the expectations on the rubric except one. I failed to make sure my sources were in MLA format and instead had only links whenever I posted them. I also forgot to credit most if not all of the images on my blogs as well. Other than that my blogs have near perfect grammar, have images, responds to the topic with enough evidence to prove my point, meets the word count if not exceeds at time, and finally is always uploaded on time. Confusion and Stress There has been times when I am creating a blog that it stresses or confuses me since it is a relaxed platform and not as strict as an essay; because of this my writing sounds nervous or may sound rushed since I am trying to have a relaxed but not too relaxed style as I write my blog. Other than that I have not stressed too much about my blog posts since the topics have been interesting to me, which in hand makes me want to work on it more, but if the topic ever leaves my interest I may end up stressing since I

  General Information on George Edwin Taylor We have our first ever African American president candidate Georgia Edwin Taylor, he did not have the best start but he did succeed on what he wanted somewhat in 1904's election. Taylor became an orphan at the peak of the civil war and because of it he remained homeless as a child.One day he got onto a riverboat that left him in La Crosse, Wisconsin, from there he got adopted by an African American farm family. Then his life was starting to get better, he went to university to get an education and then after he got into the newspaper business. His word quickly rose up in popularity at that time, where there were tons of people who were following his articles. Many African Americans were blindly following the Republican party at the time because they wanted to abolish slavery, Taylor was not fine with that since he saw there was an issues with labor and he wanted to fix that. He then proceeds to start his campaign as president with the ba
