How did the technological advances during WW2 prolong the Cold War? WW2 is so interesting to me because of how they had the most similar technology to what we have today. The plane, nuclear, and computational technology sectors were all fast tracked because of the immediate need for war technology. This, however, had many consequences as the war after WW2 was far larger in scale and in length. The technology developed during WW2 prolonged the life of the Cold War because of the nuclear efforts, vehicle research, and rocketry programs that occurred during WW2. The most interesting aspect of this entire research project is the fact that all topics point towards nuclear efforts. The vehicles that were produced before and after WW2 included the nuclear technology that we still use today. This was a huge improvement over conventional ways of moving. The rocketry programs of both the US and the Soviets all had one goal in mind. That was to launch a nuclear warhead at each other and make ...

One of the most interesting aspects of the setting of ATDPTI is that story so far has been set in an Indian Reserve is Spokane, Washington. I found this to be very foreign to me mainly because I haven't actually experienced what these Indian reserves were like. So I thought that one of the most productive things that I could do to better understand the environment of the book is to actually research Indian Reserves and specifically the one in Spokane. One of the first things that I looked into when it came to the Spokane Indian Reserve is the actual organization of it all. At the current moment, the 2,874 citizens that live there are split among six organizations. There is the Tribal Government, Spokane Tribal Enterprises, Spokane Indian Housing Authority, Wellpinit School District, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and the Indian Health Services. All of which are government controlled and funded. So far in ATDPTI, I have only seen three of the six sections so far.

The media has been all over Bitcoin. They constantly rave about how the price has hit the sky, and some media outlets say that it is a complete scam. The only problem is that a lot of people don't actually know what Bitcoin actually is. Yes, Bitcoin is a completely decentralized crytpcurrency that uses blockchain technology. It creates an entire financial system that is void of a central authority. It does this using blockchain technology. Block chain technology works by using computing power(from miners that put their computer hardware power up to the network) to validate transactions between two parties. After this validation is done, miners are compensated for the services they provide in Bitcoin. This is how more Bitcoin is put into circulation. The main aspect of all cryptocurrencies that I am interested in is mining. The basic approach that most miners take to mining is that they should invest into hardware, and then achieve that fastest ROI that they can. The only problem ...

At the current moment, my research is going very well in terms of the amount of organization I am putting forth. I am usually very unorganized whenever I do any type of work, but this seems to be very different because of whats at stake(my grades). What is also going well is just how interested I am into my topic. I am never interested in school work and yet I still find myself surfing the internet trying to find more info for my research paper(more on this later). One of my biggest problems is actually finding in depth information on certain aspects of my research paper. I think this is mainly because most of the stuff that I need to know is probably still classified by either the Russians or the US. One example of this is the complete lack of knowledge of how the Russians actually attained the means to create their V2 clone. The only thing that I could find was a picture, and it was questionable about whether it was actually the clone or just another V2.

The first thing that I learned about being a highschool student is that this is an entire different level of intensity. Middle school was easy compared to the first semester I have had. The second thing that I learned is that time is more valuable to me at this point in my life. This mainly has to do with the fact that I have twice the amount of work that I had in middle school. The final thing that I have learned is that I have a lot more freedom than before. My goal for the next semester is all about time. I felt like last semester that I did not properly utilize my time. This year I am hoping to buckle down and finally be able to get my work done quickly and properly. Another one of my goals is to improve my grades. Without going into too much detail, I think my grades could be better.

Gregory: Describe what Utopia would look like and why. My utopia would actually be today's America with a few minor changes. I would certainly keep the system of government that we have at the moment, but I believe that some of the other systems that America has in place are very unnecessary. The first system that I would abolish as President would be welfare(I will explain this later). The second change that I would make would be lowering taxes substantially(I will also explain how this will work). The last change that I would implement would be to give business more control over their actual business. By this I mean that they can hire who they want to hire, serve who they serve, and not be withheld by government restrictions. Abolishing welfare and lowering taxes are two things that go hand in hand. Once business taxes are lowered, then employee wages will rise. This will then cause the need for welfare to go down. People will then have to stop depending on the government. Th...
