How the Sun affects the Earth

1. Sunlight affects the weather of an area. The temperature of any place on the Earth depends on where the sun is in the sky. Tropical areas near the equator, an invisible line around the middle of the Earth, have a hot climate because the sun shine almost directly overhead at noon. Areas near the North Pole and the South Pole have cold weather because the sun never rises very high there.

The sun gives us heat, light, and other kinds of energy. All life on Earth -- people, animals, and plants -- depends on this energy from the sun. Plants use sunlight to make their own food. As they make their food, plants give off a gas called oxygen. People and animals eat the plants and breathe in oxygen. In turn, people and animals breathe out the gas carbon dioxide. Plants mix carbon dioxide with energy from sunlight and water from the soil to make more food.

It looks go don't it. Shiny silver teapots—of different sizes and shapes—reflect the economic climate and political upheaval taking place in the United States during the time of their production. Once reserved for the 17th-century well to-do, silver wares became available to a larger audience with the opening of silver mines in the West and technological advancements such as electroplating and industrialization.

MLK for a day

MLK was a nonviolent civil rights leader and he changed life for millions blacks, whites, ashins and me Mexicans. The point of nonviolence is not to humiliate the opponent, but to gain he friendship and understanding. Dr. King did not want his followers to shame racists, only convince them to treat people better. I liked this statement because he talk about nonviolence and making friends with the opponents by turning the other cheek. MLK video
