Bellringers 4/11-

    4/11-The whole backlash on Ozzie Guillen is typical in celebrities to me. He said something inappropriate, apologizes, but still will feel the resent from many people. His statement was offensive and the Cuban people deserved to riot. Guillen does feel guilty, and has been known for saying what he wants. However that doesn't excuse him from the flat-out rude comment he spoke about the dictator. I believe as the Cubans do and he should be punished, but not fired. He did retrace his words and should be forgiven this time.

4/12-I could not live without the several sewing machines invented during the Industrial Revolution. That would mean I would have to make my own clothes, which is impossible. Just, no. I could not make anything by myself that could be worn decently. Those machines do all the hard work for me.

4/16-I believe the most important invention we have speaked about so far would be the steam engine. It improved so many machines and allowed technology to move forward.


4/24- I believe Breivik used video games as a cover up to his murderous actions. There has to be something deeply wrong with him if he can commit murder and just say, "Oh, I used  mouse-clicking and button-smashing in virtual worlds to plan my mass killings." He sounds like a bored, lonely man with mental problems and absolutely all the time to do whatever he wanted. I think violent video games do not alter your mind and make you want to harm other people. Millions of people play the same games that he did. Come on, they are used for entertainment, not to influence violence to deranged people. I say video games are harmless to ordinary people. But for a man like him, it could have been his outlet for murder. Seriously, no one in their right mind could do such a thing.

4/25- The Idustrial Revolution spread more rapidly due to advancemens in communication and techology, like the steam-engine powered boat allowed faster and easier access to trade and people. Women and Children were treated poorly in factories but then were given equal working rights. The assembly lines
