Update #3

Seattle, Washington (Space Needle)

I choose this place because it looked like a very cool building. I would like to travel there sometime and see the Space Needle.

It was intriguing to me because of how tall the Space Needle is. Yes I would love to go see it someday to see the Space Needle in person.

It is a story of human interest because of how tall the Space Needle is.





BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS (Old Franklin Zoo Bear Pens)

I choose this place because I love zoos.

It intrigued me because of the fact that they just left these pens out in the wild.

It is human interest because it is like a ghost town experience.

Football update

The football team at Dartmouth University does things a little different when it comes to football practice. The game of football which is meant to be played physical often comes with many injuries in practice as the only way to prepare for the contact is to engage in it. This is where the twist comes in with Dartmouth University. Their coach, Buddy Teevens, got rid of the hitting aspect in practice. Instead of the players tackling each other they now tackle MVP. A robot who can withstand hits from the players and provides a safe way for them to practice proper tackling. This article was really cool and could be very revolutionary in football as the problems with concussions continue to rise.
