THESIS STATEMENT/ THIRD ANNOTATION

There are many different theories on why Amelia Earhart disappeared over the Pacific ocean... but me and my partner are going to figure out which theory sounds more reasonable.

Many people from 1939-through today are still pointing out their views on how they think Amelia Earhart disappeared... What my partner and I are going to find out which theory sounds more realistic or in which the U.S.A was going through at that time to see if it links back or has something to do with Amelia's disappearance.

   The very first theory about what happened to Amelia was conjured by the captain of the coast Guard cutter Itasca which was waiting for her at Howland Island. Commandar Warner k.Thompson decided that she probably ran out of gas shortly after contact was lost and that she had gone down at sea somewhere to the Northwest. He went and looked but found nothing.

The disappearance of Amelia Earhart

  I Choose Amelia Earhart for my NHD Project because I am interested in knowing the facts, or opinions on why the Government, friends and or family thinks why Amelia Earhart had disappeared.

  This person is important to history because her story is the greatest mystery known to man. Her disappearance was never proven to be right because all stories were theories never any facts. Life would had been different without Amelia Earhart because if she never was the first women to fly things might have been different. How? Maybe because women would had have an harder time becoming an women aviator

   The other major theory about what happened is that when Amelia could not find Howland, she turned her plane north and ended up in the Marshall Islands then held by the Japanese. It was there they say she was held as a prisoner of by war by Japanese and eventually met her death. Apr 2, 2007.

I was frustrated when nothing would happening. Like nothings getting done yet. I think that we need to start getting the people who is in charge of contacting the Constitution Center to find out if we are allowed to plant our flowers there. I'm starting to look up how much the flower pots would cost if need the big kind. And to see how much the dirt would cost to see how many pounds of dirt would be needed and if I know how big the pots are going to be then i can find out how much dirt we would need and then how many bags of dirt he would need.

DEBATE 5/22/08

TO DAY KATEY AND SHARDE WENT AGAISNT EACH OTHER IN DEBATING ON WHETHER SLAVERY SHOULD BE ABOLISHED OR NOT.

KATEY DID GOOD COUKD HAD WON IF SHE WOULD HAD ATTACKED SHARDE'S ARGUMENT BETTER WHEN DOING CROSS EXAMINATION. BUT OVER ALL I THINK THAT KATE DID GOOD I VOTED FOR HER BUT SHARDE WON BECAUSE SHE HAD MORE EVIDENCE THEN SHE DID.

LATER ON MARCUS AND AMBER WENT UP AND EVERY ONE THOUGHT THAT AMBER WAS GOING TO WIN BUT SHE DIDN'T BECAUSE SHE WAS TO NERVOUS IT GOT IN HER WAY IN HER ASKING GOOD QUESTIONS AND STUMBLE WHILE READING HER INTRO. MARCUS WAS GOOD HE COULD HAD DONE SOME MORE OF ASKING DIFFERENT QUESTIONS BUT THE ONE HE WAS ASKING HER WAS GOOD BECAUSE SHE KEPT BEATING AROUND THE BUSH. BUT OVER ALL SHE WAS GOOD AND SO WAS MARCUS.

It states that in the article that in Apirl a new poll revealed that 81 percent of the American people believe that the country is on the "wrong track". In the 25 years that pollsters have asled this question, last month's response was by far the most negative. It is also stated that the war in Iraq and the on going threat of terrorism. But the facts on the ground-unemployment numbers foreclosure  rates, deaths from terror attacks- are simply not dire enough to explain to present atomosphere of malaise. I figure that meaning that it is just making things even worse bring on terror attacks, and that lives are being taking away. 

I wasn't here during last weeks service learning but i guess it went all right.
