Looking at the two websites, "The Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus" and "The Giant Pacific Octopus Web Page" that you evaluated on octopuses, which web site was the most reliable and why? Remember to consider areas such as credibility, context, information, and links.

I believe that "The Giant Pacific Octopus Web Page" is the most reliable. It seemed to have the best information, had no hyperlinks, and National Geographic is credible. As for the other site "The Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus," it had hyperlinks all throughout its information. That tells me it is a secondary site because it has to site all its information. It also talked about make-believe things such as sasquatch.

Think back on a stressful event that you have experienced. Describe the event and how you dealt with the stress. Explain why it was a good or bad way to deal with your stress.

I suffer with anxiety that comes and goes. I get super stressed for tests and assignments. But my friends were recently in a bad car accident and ever since I have been super stressed out driving. I deal with my stress by taking deep breaths, going the speed limit, wearing my seat belt, and making sure that I am paying attention to the road. I think that this is the best way I can be dealing with the stress of driving.

Think about a decision you have made in the last week. It can be as simple as choosing what you would wear this morning. Evaluate your decision by going over the five questions for evaluating decisions.

Identify the problem- I was going on a 9-mile hike and needed a hat to cover my face. Generate options- Wear a Nike hat or find one at the store. Assess options- I have a Nike hat that matched my outfit and fit well but didn't cover my full face, but the hat I wanted to wear I couldn't find in any store and it would cover my full face. Make a decision- Chose to wear Nike hat Implement the decision- Wore the Nike hat on the hike Evaluate- It was a good decision because I didn't have to buy a hat but my nose got some sun Corrective action- Reapply sunscreen What would you do differently- Honestly I'm not sure there is much I would do differently. Maybe I would search for the hat that I wanted online that would be the best price option. Or I would make sure to reapply sunscreen. What is the next step- To either purchase a hat that would cover my whole face for the best price or make sure to bring sunscreen. What were the consequences- I didn't have to pay for a hat but my nose did get sunburned. This happened because I didn't reapply sunscreen or buy a hat. What happened- I have a little scab on my nose because I didn't protect it enough. Why did it happen- I didn't reapply sunscreen or buy a hat that would cover my whole face.

She has been asked to choose a career to highlight and share with the class.2) Patricia really likes mathematics and discovers that there are three careers in math that are becoming really popular - statisticians, actuaries, and basic mathematicians. She can only do one so she has to choose one.3) She really is most interested in statisticians, but she is afraid that the class might be bored with that occupation description.

What is Mars? Mars is the fourth planet from the sun and the next planet beyond Earth. It is, on average, more than 142 million miles from the sun. Mars is about one-sixth the size of Earth. Mars is known as the Red Planet. It gets its red color from the iron in its soil. Mars is named for the ancient Roman god of war. The Greeks called the planet Ares. The Romans and Greeks associated the planet with war because its color resembles the color of bloo Mars has two small moons. Their names are Phobos and Deimos. They are named for the sons of Ares, the Greek god of war. Phobos means "fear," and Deimos means "pani" What Is Mars Like? Mars is very col The average temperature on Mars is minus 80 degrees Fahrenheit -- way below freezing! Its surface is rocky, with canyons, volcanoes and craters all over it. Red dust covers most of its surface. Mars has clouds and wind, just as Earth does. Sometimes the wind blows the red dust into a dust storm. The dust storms can look like tornados and can be seen from Earth. Mars has about one-third the gravity of Earth. A rock dropped on Mars would fall more slowly than a rock falls on Earth. A person who weighs 100 pounds on Earth would only weigh about 37 pounds on Mars because of the reduced gravity. Mars' atmosphere has much less oxygen than the atmosphere of Earth. Its atmosphere is mostly carbon dioxide. Which is an example of a paraphrase?

The same rock dropped on earth would fall more quickly than one dropped on Mars.
