calamity jane :
Martha Jane Canary-Burke, better known as Calamity Jane (May 1, 1852 - August 1, 1903) was a professional scout champion and U.S. border, famous for his claim to be a close friend of Wild Bill Hickok, but also Native Americans have fought.
Calamity Jane was born in Princeton, Missouri, being the eldest of six siblings (two brothers and four sisters). His mother died in 1866 and his father in 1867 (in Utah). He lived for a time inVirginia City, Montana. Received little or no formal education but could read and write. In 1868, aged 16, assumed the role of head of his family and moved with her to Fort Bridger, Wyoming.Later he moved to Piedmont, Wyoming. There he established with his brothers, struggling tofind a home to give them welcome. In stories of this time, Jane was described as attractive,dark eyes. He moved toward outdoor adventurous life harder in the Great Plains.
Signed as a scout in 1870 and took the soldier's uniform, although it is not clear whether it wasenlisted in the U.S. Army at this time. Since then lost almost all contact with their younger siblings, preferring to lead a wild life and moved. Calamity Jane, as would be known, led acolorful and busy life since 1870 but, as historians have discovered, was prone to exaggerations and outright lies about his exploits.

high technology and robots

the most advanced technology currently available. It is often used in reference to micro-electronics, rather than other technologies. that's the example of the next high technology :


ROBOTS :
A robot is a mechanical or virtual artificial entity. In practice, this is usually an electromechanical system that, by its appearance or movements, provides a sense of purpose itself.
Architecture of the robots

There are different types and kinds of robots, including human form, animals, plants or evenarchitectural elements but all differ in their abilities and are classified in 4 ways:
Androids: robots in human form. Mimic the behavior of individuals, its utility is currently onlyexperimental. The main limitation of this model is the implementation of the equilibriumdisplacement, it is bipedal.
Mobile: they move through a dolly (wheeled) robots ensure the transport of pieces from one point to another.
Zoomorphic: it is a system imitating animal locomotion. The application of these robots is usedmainly for the study of volcanoes and space exploration.
Polyarticular, move their limbs with few degrees of freedom. Its main industrial use is to move items that require care.

earth and mars : 2 different planets

EARTH:
is the third planet from the Sun, and the densest and fifth-largest of the eight planets in the Solar System. It is also the largest of the Solar System's four terrestrial planets. It is sometimes referred to as the World, the Blue Planet, or by its Latin name, Terra.


MARS:
Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun in the Solar System. The planet is named after the Roman god of warMars. It is often described as the "Red Planet", as theiron oxide prevalent on its surface gives it a reddish appearance.Mars is a terrestrial planet with a thin atmosphere, having surface features reminiscent both of theimpact craters of the Moon and the volcanoes, valleys, deserts, and polar ice caps of Earth. The rotational period and seasonal cycles of Mars are likewise similar to those of Earth, as is the tilt that produces the seasons. Mars is the site of Olympus Mons, the highest known mountain within the Solar System, and of Valles Marineris, the largest canyon. The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 40% of the planet and may be a giant impact feature.

buring owls

whre do they live ?
the New World, but in North America 


what do they eat ?
 catch insects in flight
The highly variable diet includes invertebrates and small vertebrates, which make up roughly one-third and two-thirds of the diet, respectively.
 eat large insects and small rodents
 ground squirrels .




how is their habitat ?


The owls nest in an underground burrow, hence the name Burrowing Owl. If burrows are unavailable and the soil is not hard or rocky, the owls may excavate their own. Burrowing Owls will also nest in shallow, underground, man-made structures that have easy access to the surface. they need be on a tropical weather to live well.





















what is a strike an a protest

WHAT IS A PROTESTTeachers on strike over payWhat is a strike? 
A strike is when a group of workers agree to stop working.They do this when they want to protest against something they think is unfair where they work.Strikes sometimes happen so that politicians have to listen more carefully to the workers.






protest is an expression of objection, by words or by actions, to particular events, policies or situations. Protests can take many different forms, from individual statements to mass demonstrations. Protesters may organize a protest as a way of publicly making their opinions heard in an attempt to influence public opinion or government policy, or they may undertake direct action in an attempt to directly enact desired changes themselves.Where protests are part of a systematic and peaceful campaign to achieve a particular objective, and involve the use of pressure as well as persuasion, they go beyond mere protest and may be better described as cases of civil resistance or nonviolent resistance.
