Hugh Bradner It was getting cold and repetitive doing many underwater dives into the frigid water. Hugh had thought of ways to make his job quicker and easier or, if it came down to it, perhaps something warmer. In his basement, he was working on suit that could hold warm water inside. Separating the cold and warm water with the fabric. It was the neoprene fabric recommended by the scientist and engineer of Scripps Institute. Today Hugh had finally finished fabricating the suit in his basement, but it was very heavy and hasn't been in a test dive yet. He and his co workers decided to create this wet suit to make their work easier, maybe go for a US patent if possible. If that didn't work he could just sell the suit to the navy and such.

In the end, life is too precious to stare at 5 or 50 inch screen, to create, to do, to see, to feel, to learn. Ray Bradbury illustrates this and tries to spread this in a form of a warning to Americans. To make Americans think about the distractions and what humans are fully capable of. whether, the distraction comes from technology, the media, and even people. Humans themselves control their own lives, nobody should dictate, censor and prevent individual thought, It is only up to the person to realize this.
The book I choice to read was, “Brian’s Winter”, by Gary Paulsen. This book is about Brian after the private plane he was flying in crashes into the rugged forests of Canada. Brian went through many struggles while trying the best he could to survive in the harsh environment. Some of the biggest events in this story include when he is attacked by a bear, during the major storms and some of his questionable encounters with the wolves. If I were telling a friend about the entire story in two minutes I would say, Brian’s parents were divorced, leading him to visit his father for the first time in a long time. He didn’t know what to expect from the trip though, one thing is for sure, he didn’t expect what actually happened to happen. So Brian

Elon Musk is one of the most intelligent people alive as well as one of the richest with a net worth of around 20 billion dollars. Musk is part of many large companies such as Neuralink, The Boring Company, Tesla Motors, PayPal, SpaceX, and more. Although Musk seems to have a wonderful life, he faced many struggles on his way to becoming a popular and wealthy entrepreneur. When Elon was a kid, he was once thrown down the stairs and beaten up until he blacked out by schoolmates, but this did not stop him because as a 12 year old student, Musk created a computer game called Blastar which he sold to a computer magazine (Vance). He later founded his first company with his brother called Zip2. Zip2 was funded by Musk’s dad and Elon was so dedicated to making it big that he lived in his office and showered at the local YMCA (Weinberger). Musk then founded X.com which was an online banking website off of the loads of money he received from selling parts of Zip2. X.com later merged with another company to create PayPal, giving Musk tons of money for investing for future companies and ideas. Musk continued to invest on companies which resulted in him gaining more money and increasing his influence he had on the world. He is not going to stop what he is trying to do until he
