🛑 Irena Sendler smuggled children in boxes, suitcases and caskets, saving the lives of more than 2,500 Jewish children.
🛑 During World War II, she watched in horror as the Nazis forced Jewish people to live in a ghetto in Warsaw, Poland where disease ran rampant.
🛑 Soon, it became clear that the Nazis intended to exterminate the Jews. That’s when Sendler took courageous action. To gain access to the ghetto, she pretended to be a nurse. She used a fake I.D. and told German soldiers she was there to deliver supplies and care for the sick.
🛑 In 1942, she asked 10 close friends to help her save as many children as she could. What she was asking of her friends was punishable by death. Even so, her group grew to 25 people who were willing to risk life and limb for the cause.

🅾 Scientists hope to find cure for snakebites 🅾
🔴 Scientists hope to find a snakebite cure. They are using technology used to find HIV anti-bodies. They want to use human anti-bodies in their cure. Snakebite is treated using anti-venom. This is made from the snake's venom. A professor said they are making the 'next generation' of snakebite cures. These will cure any snakebite.
🔴 Snakebites kill 140,000 people a year. About 400,000 people get terrible injuries and stress. About 250 types of snake have a dangerous venom. Every venom is very different. This makes finding a cure difficult. Someone said snakebite was, "the biggest public health crisis you have never heard of".

🅾 What? How did that happen?
🛑 The United States recently elected a president against all odds. No one thought a billionaire reality TV star with no political experience could win, but he did. There is a famous quote that says, “In a democracy people get the leaders they deserve.”
But in this presidential election, the person with the most votes didn’t win.
The US chooses its president through an antiquated process called the Electoral College. The history of the Electoral College dates back to the beginning of the United States. The Founding Fathers chose the Electoral College system for different reasons. One reason was to try to balance the power between the states with bigger and smaller populations. States with large numbers of non-voting slaves worried they would be bullied by states with larger populations of white voters.
Nowadays, the Electoral College uses a system of 538 points, called ‘electoral votes,’ which decides the winner. Each of America’s fifty states is given a certain number of these points based on its size. The bigger the state, the more points it’s worth. The candidate with the most votes in each state gets all of that state’s points. So it’s all or nothing.
This Electoral College system creates many different imbalances in the voting process. For example, the state of California, with a population of 37 million, is worth 55 points. Wyoming, on the other hand, with a mere 563,000 people, is only worth 3 points. If you do the math, you find out that each point in Wyoming represents 187,000 people, while each point in California represents 677,000 people. That means voters in Wyoming have 3.6 times the voting power of voters in California!
This state-by-state Electoral College point system sometimes creates a situation where a candidate can get the most votes on a national level, but get fewer Electoral College points. Hillary Clinton got 2 million more votes than Donald Trump, but she received fewer Electoral College points. The same thing happened in the year 2000, when George Bush beat Al Gore with fewer votes, but more Electoral College points. In the end, the number of votes from real people doesn’t always decide an election.
Many people have complained that the Electoral College system is undemocratic and needs to change. So why has this antiquated system stuck around for all these years?
In 2012, Donald Trump said on Twitter, “The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy.” After his win in 2016, he unsurprisingly changed his tune. Trump now says, “The Electoral College is actually genius…”

The scientist who attempted to build a time machine
🍃🍃❤️❤️🍃🍃
For Professor of Physics, Ron Mallett, time travel isn't just a flight of
fancy. It's his life's obsession. Ron's fascination with time travel began
as a child. Like many lo-year-old boys, Ron worshipped the ground his
father walked on. His dad was a TV and radio repairman who could fix
just about anything. Ron described him as the center of his universe.
One night, Ron woke to the sound of his mother crying. His father had
died from a heart attack.
Ron was beside himself with grief. He couldn't comprehend the death
of his father. He said it was like Superman dying. Ron thought building
a time machine could save his father's life. He'd go back in time and tell
his father to quit smoking cigarettes and prevent his heart attack. He
began building a time machine in his basement. The project was
doomed to failure, but Ron never gave up. He later studied for a Ph.D. in
quantum physics and became a professor. He specialized in the study
of black holes. It cloaked his urge to study nothing but time travel.
At the age of V, Ron was forced to retire due to heart-related
problems. It gave him time to focus on building his time machine. He
worked 10 hours a day and made a blueprint for a time machine. His
theoretical findings were published as a cover article in The New
Scientist. After Fo years Ron finally came out of the closet. His lifelong
obsession was at last given the publicity it deserved. When quantum
physicist, Bryce DeWitt, heard Ron's theories of how lasers could be
used to bend space-time, he sang their praises.
He told Ron, "I don't know if you will ever see your father again, but I do
know he would have been proud of you." Ron has accepted that his
theories on time travel won't ever help his father. His theories are
based on Einstein's block model of space-time. It suggests that the
past, present and future are already written. If we were to travel back in
time, we could only experience it, but not alter it. In other words, what
will be will be. This knowledge didn't upset Ron.
He realized he had spent his life working to keep his dad's memory
alive. By the time he faced the fact he would never see his dad again,
he didn't need to. In this case, time itself was the greatest healer of all.

Sentence Parts
🍃🍃❤️❤️🍃🍃
✅ ‘What are the Parts of the Sentence?
🗞 Within a sentence, there are three main parts that make up a sentence:
👤 the subject, the verb, and the complement.
🛡 1. Subject. The subject is either a noun or pronoun and answers the question "Who?" or “What?" before the verb. The subject performs action, receives action, or is in the state of being.
💎Ex: Jamie plays soccer.
🛡 2. Verb. The verb indicates whether the subject performs action, receives action or is in a state of being. The verb may include helping words called
auxiliaries.
💎Ex: The bus stopped for us.
(subject performs action.)
💎Ex: Diane was paid for her car.
(subject receives action.)
💎Ex: The grocery list is on the table.
(subject s in the state of being.)
📛📛 Note 📛📛 : Any form of the verb be indicates the state of being when used alone (is, am are, was, were).
📛📛 Note 📛📛 : The verb usually comes after the subject, but in some cases it precedes the subject. This occurs when a question is asked or when a sentence begins with there or where.
🛡 3. Complement. Many sentences also contain a complement, which completes the meaning of the sentence and answers the questions “What?" or "Whom?* after the verb.
💎 Ex: The fire has destroyed the house. (what?)
💎Ex. The new vice president is Michael Gates. (whom?)
🗞There are Three Types of Complements: the Direct Object,
the Predicate
✅ Nominative, and the Predicate Adjective.
🛡 « Adirect object is a noun or pronoun that completes the meaning of the sentence and answers "Whom?" or "What?" after the verb. It receives
the action of the verb; it never refers back o the subject. It can only occur when the verb indicates action.
💎 Ex: Jeremy hit the ball.
(what?)
🛡 + A predicate nominative is a noun or pronoun that completes the meaning of a sentence and answers “Whom?* or “What?* after the verb. It refers back to and renames the subject; it does not receive the
action of the verb. It can only occur when the verb indicates state of being.
💎 Ex: Jeremy is my teacher.
(who?) (what?)
🛡 + A predicate adjective completes the meaning of a sentence and answers "What?" after the verb. It refers back to and describes the subject; it does not receive the action of the verb. It can only occur when the verb indicates state of being.
💎 Ex: Jeremy is smart
(what?)
📛Remember📛 : Within a sentence, there are three main parts that make up a sentence: the subject, the verb, and the complement.
