What Instrument did the Skeleton play?.."tromBONES"

What do our bones actually do for us other than the obvious which is to help us move and provide structural support? Well, we're here to find out.  For anyone who doesn't know the human body consists of 206 bones. I know you wouldn't think your body had that many bones in it, but it does. Did you know that Bones are technically considered Organs because they're made from more than one type of tissue? Interesting.

There are so many bones in the human body that it would be impossible to name all of them if not for the location method which would be dividing the structures first by location into the Axial and Appendicular. Axial bones are bones that a human cannot live without, they provide support, hold some of your organs, etc. Appendicular bones provide mobility. Bones are made up of actively generating tissues, which means that your skeleton, in reality, is breaking down and a new skeleton is in its place every ten years or so. The bones in your body are more than just a support system for your flesh, they are the way you keep Calcium Phosphate and other minerals to keep your neurons firing and muscle contracting. Your bones are also critical for Hematopoiesis which is blood cell production.

Bones are very critical to human survival, without them we would be dead. Simple as that. Bones do more than just hold us up.

RACE Race. no not Track and Field but one of the most uncomfortable issues to talk about. When someone brings up race most of us look away or some of us leave the area, but for some of us who it affects, the African American's, the Latinos..etc immediately are furious or angry, because of the stigma that comes with the color of our skin; Racism. George Edwin Taylor. A forgotten African American Presidential Candidate, the reason he is forgotten is because he did not win the election. He is not Barack Obama, first black president in the history of the United States. George was born in 1857 to a slave man and a free woman. He had originally worked as a professional Journalist before deciding to dive into politics. George   " gained distinction, according to the Tacoma, Wash.,  Times  on Aug. 17, 1904, as a leader in the Republican national convention of 1892, "to which he was an alternate delegate-at-large from his state."  People took notice of that so in 1904 T

CONGRATULATION GRADUATION CLASS..WELL 1/3 OF YOU

Image
HOOK - The Fact that only 1/3 of students who begin college will not graduate Within 6 years is mind-blowing.  I didn't know that it was this bad, I would have thought at least 50% would graduate within 6 years, but now that I see that it is 1/3 it makes sense if you think about it. BRIDGE- Why would some students not graduate within the 6 years given,  there are  so many different reasons for this, here are some of them;  People might say the reason for that is, maybe early parenthood, or if " Life" hits people hard,  people might have to take a break from school because frankly they just need a break . Or they have early children that they have to take care of and cant maintain a job and school at the same time, they have to work overtime, and extra hours, just to feed the kids, and to pay rent, and other bills such as gas, light, water...etc. Then others might say that the people were just lazy, and they didn't want to do it in the first place, that if th

ANDREW " IMPEACHED" JACKSON

Andrew Jackson. Many of you may know him because he was the 7th president of the United States, or that he was a lawyer, or the fact that he owned slaves, or other reasons, but the specific reason I am writing this blog is to inform you on how and why he was impeached...no not put inside of a Peach but charged by the Legislative Body. Andrew Jackson was a Lawyer, who then became a senator in 1861, and when the United Stated split he was the only senator to stay with the union, and in 1862 President Lincoln appointed him governor of military in Tennessee, then after the war he was made Vice President in 1864, he then took over presidency when Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in 1865..yes bad times. Back to Andrew Jackson, as you may know Andrew Jackson was a supporter of slavery which comes into play because as one of his first acts of presidency he delivered a lenient reconstruction plan for the south who were defeated in the Civil War, which the mostly republican congress, didn&#
