River of Doubt Summary

On December 9, 1913 Theodore Roosevelt was sent out, after failing to get a third term of presidency, to map out a River. The river was called the River of Doubt. He went with his son Kermit and Colonel Rondon of the South American Government plus much more. The trek took every bit of confidence from Theodore Roosevelt. He was bitten and stung from the insects in the rainforest. They ran out of food throughout the journey and had to eat monkeys. The journey finally ended on April 27 the next year. When they got back the trip was considered a success. They found over 2,000 species of birds and 500 mammals on the trip. The river was later renamed to the Roosevelt River for his bravery.

Online Safety

After reading the article I think that the guy who posted bombing threats against the school is first of all pretty stupid. I really think threats like these should be taken seriously because one day someone will say something online and then do it. This student should deserve the punishment he got.

Feed Readers

In my opinion I prefer google reader then technorati because google reader is so much easier to use the technorati. another thing is that finding the subscribe button on technorati is so hard to find but on google reader it is right on the left as a big red button. the last thing is that technorati has a confusing setup to it you just can't find a blog you could find a post or a website and you can't follow that at all it needs to be blog.
