weather can be dangerous in so many ways. On March 18, 1925 and at 1:01 pm a F5 tornado hit MO.IN, IL,DE. It killed 695 people and injured 2027. A hurricane named Allen hit in 1980 and its wind speeds were 190 mph. Back in 1998 flooding along the Yangtse river in china cost the us $30 billion and killed 4,000 people. In the same year Florida had a drought which caused wild fires. They lost 483,000 acres of land it also took away 356 structure and $276 million in damages.

In this part I will talk about the Vietnam war. This war had started September 26, 1959 and went on to april 30, 1975. this war took place in south and north Vietnam and Cambodia and Laos. This war was fought between the communist North Vietnam and the government of south Vietnam who we and other nations supported. We went in to this war to prevent communist take over of south Vietnam. In 1950 military advisers started to arrive there. Then in the early 1960s our involvement had started to escalate. Our troops over there tripled in 1961 and then did so again in 1962. Then our operations started to span there borders and Laos and Cambodia were heavily bombed. In 1968 our involvement started to peak and after that our ground forces were taken out of the war. When the war ended it had killed over 6 million people and 58,159 were us soldiers.

i will start to tell you about hybrid cars. The cars run on two power sources instead of the regular one source. The two sources that are usually in hybrid cars are an internal combustion engine and one or more electric motor. In North America they expect 10% less fuel to be used with this system. Right now they are spending about $2 billion on hybrid research. In 2002 the military started to test serial hybrid Humvee. They found out that they have faster acceleration and are more stealth with a low thermal signature. Some examples of hybrids are the Honda civic Honda Insight Mercedes benz s400 blue hybrid Bmvv 7 series hybrid and the smart fort 2. This is a picture of the Honda civic

This section will be about the swine flu. Swine flu can come many different forms of this virus. The different types are h1n1 h1n2 h3n1 h3n2 and h2n3. This virus is common in pig populations all around the world. The transmission of humans getting sick from this is extremely rare. However people who are constantly around pigs have an better chance of getting infected. If the pig was sick and then they used its meat you would not get sick if the meat was properly cooked. During the middle of the 20 century we figured out how to identify influenza subtypes which then allowed us to see accurate diagnostics of transmissions of this flu to humans. The symptoms of this are extremely common to the regular flu.

I will talk about now how a computer works. A computer is a machine that manipulates data based on a set of instructions. The first computer were desinged in about the middle of the 20th century and they were about the size of a very large room. These types of computers used as much energy as hundreds of our regular computers today. These modern computer are nearly billions of times more capable than the first computers and are small. these computers have the ability to store and then execute lists of programs that make these computer very versatile. Also any computer with a certain minimum capability is really capable of performing the same tasks that any other computer can do. This all means that computers going to mobile phones to super computer can technically perform the same tasks if we give them enough time and storage capacity.
