The Glories of the Stone Age
How zombified this generation has become. Teenagers walk down the streets with their noses buried in their phones, no concept of the world around them, and not responding when called. The beginning of high school classes seem to always consist of the teacher yelling at a student, preoccupied on his/her phone, and not paying attention to opening remarks. Technology has clearly gone too far. It has taken our youth like a drug addiction, down a twisted path with no noticeable recovery in sight.
An easy solution to the problem would be to stop the furthering of technology. But that wouldn’t end the addiction, it would only force these teenagers to adapt to their now constant conditions and their conditions would show no overall improvement. A straight linear line on a graph would mean nothing, but a vertical downward line would capture attention in a very thorough manner.
A quick wrecking ball to electrical towers and the rapid destruction of all electrical devices is all the solution would require. No more electricity means no more technology means no more meaningless distractions. The young adults would have more responsibility and tasks that would require their undivided attention, such as retrieving drinking water from the wells, hunting livestock for dinner, and assisting their parents in the care of the household and the family. No longer would they be the social media-obsessed robots they once were. They would now be placed with a crucial responsibility to society, and regain their former, emotional selves.
The benefits of living in the Stone Age would provide a much needed sense of ingenuity and character-building to the teenagers of the 21st century. Only by eliminating all technological distractions, will this great revolution be possible.
Chemicals for All
Kids today don’t want to eat any vegetables, and we shouldn’t blame them. Vegetables don’t taste good. With new innovations in chemical engineering, vegetables shouldn’t have to taste bad. Scientists can create chemicals that are capable of making vegetables actually taste good. A cucumber could taste like watermelon. A red pepper could taste like candy. GMOs (genetically modified organisms) have not been proven to be bad for anyone, so what’s stopping us. Vegetables don’t taste good, so we should make them taste good. Imagine, parents serving their children vegetables and not having to force them to eat it. Kids will devour vegetables if they all taste good.
The government is currently trying to crack down on the use of GMOs, but consumers have the right to purchase whatever they want. The government should not be able to restrict me from delicious tasting vegetables. It will be difficult to get all farmers on board with growing new sweet tasting vegetables, but an increase in demand for this new produce will encourage farmers to change what they grow.
People against GMOs argue that there are “risks” involved in consuming genetically modified foods, but these risks have not been proven. And these so called “risks” are definitely worth the reward. People will now delicious vegetables that last longer than our current, bitter vegetables. GMOs will improve the lives of everyone. When it comes to food, it's time we say yes to chemicals and no to bad tasting food.

Our Recommendations for Appropriate Reactions
Co Authored by Eswizzle and Shaking
Adolescents expressing their emotion at community events is a giant deal. It should be dealt with by the authorities in the most extreme way. For instance, at a basketball game. When student stand up and cheer for their home team, the players feel insignificant and often are scared or even startled by the commotion being caused by the outrageous crowd. Intimidation is the root of all evil. It takes the fun out of activities. 95% of intimidation events happen when student stand at events. It is scientifically proven that testosterone levels increase when the male and the female stand. In order to deal with this catastrophic problems, we must firstly set up audience restraint devices. Such as stun guns and bean bag rounds and fire hoses. In order to avoid such appropriate measures we may decide to chain, gag and otherwise humanely restrain the emotionally excited individuals. All attendees will wear heart rate monitors that shock when the BPM exceeds 110 BPM.
As proven in Baltimore recently, players perform much better without audiences. So in order to secure the utmost and absolute best performances from our athletes, all audience members under the age of death will be excluded. Full surveillance will in on around the clock in the form of monitoring stations, drones, wiretaps, and storm troopers. Background check are mandatory upon entering the facilities, any individuals who do not meet the requirements can be restrained indefinitely in our highly rated prisons. Any noises made above 12.45 decibels will result in a tongue or voice box removal procedure. Any chewing of gum will be forcefully removed from the mouth cavity. This is directly because recent studies show that 98% of all activities involving sports athletes falls comes from the mere pop of a bubble.
In conclusion, the only appropriate reaction by authority to emotionally enticed adolescents is to restrain, ban, and utterly exclude them from everything related to anything. Captivity is an option.

Interpretive Statement
This photo gave me a feeling that the man was in power and was telling the girl what to do. Although, when looking at it a second time, I notice that she is the one with the gun and she doesn’t look scared, but instead, confident. This shows women strength in the middle east.

Bangladesh’s Third Gender By Jonathan Blaustein Mar. 18, 2015
This image shows great progress in a cultural setting where the religion in the country doesn’t approve with a mindset. Even though these hijras are different, Bangladesh is on the way to giving these people the freedom to be who they are. Bangladesh is learning how to be a country of acceptance.
