Human Geo 11/4 - Mr. Schick is GOOONNNE!!!!! (that's a meme Mr. Schick please don't take it seriously)

- 2.9 hospital beds/1000 people (U.S.)
I think this fact is interesting because it doesn't seem like a lot. You often hear the emergency room wait taking multiple hours to be seen by doctors and I wonder if this is the reason.
- Obesity in the U.S. is 36.2% of the population.
I find this really interesting. It's crazy that people just don't care about their health and don't realize that obesity brings along fatal diseases and sicknesses with it and it is SO overlooked by them.
- Afghanistans maternal mortality rate is 396, 638/100,000
I'm not even sure this statistic is correct but it was on there. It's kind of crazy.
- 72.4% of the U.S. population is white.
We constantly are on the topic of diversity and acceptance in this country but almost 3/4 of our population is hispanic or white so ?
- The median age in Niger is 15.5
I am guessing by looking at this number the life expectancy is low and they have children at a young age. I find this interesting too.

population pyramid  Nigers' population is quickly increasing.
population pyramidCabo Verde has a steadily growing population.
population pyramidJapan has a decreasing population.
population pyramidMexico has a steadily increasing population.
population pyramidEgypt seems to be increasing quickly, there's a lot of children.

Western Civ 4/1 - Greek Theater

Image
There were tragedies - a play where something tragic happens. There were comedies - a play where they usually made fun of common ideas (politics). The only movie I can think of that I recently watched is The Conjuring. I think this movie would be leaning more towards tragedy. The hero of the story would be the mother, who then is too focused on her children instead of herself and gets possessed by a spirit. It wasn't that she was full of pride she was just trying to care for her children. After the possession scene, however, she tries to tell one of the "demonologists" that she was okay, so that may have been a show of pride. She eventually gains her justice because there is an exorcism at the end and the spirit is driven out of her.   This is a theater in Greece. It seems to be pretty well preserved. It is outside and a circular shape and I'm pretty sure I've read before that it's shaped like that so it can project the voices.

Western Civ 6/1 - letter to my future self

I will try to make this as least corny as I can possibly make it, since this type of thing usually is a little corny. I hope you are alive and well, we would not want to die young. Currently, in 2020, there are quite a few things happening. We are in a global pandemic with the virus Covid-19, and there is rioting and looting across the U.S. due to the Black Lives Matter movement. Coronavirus has us out of school and doing online assignments, businesses have been closed for the past 2 months and are just now opening back up (the mall still isn’t open  ). Christiana mall in Delaware was supposed to open today (June 1, 2020) but now is delayed because they don’t want to get looted like another Delaware mall. I spent multiple hours last night watching the rioting, and from what I saw and what was broadcasted on the news this morning, the cops are the reason they become violent. It was the same pattern in nearly every city, people would be peacefully protesting, the cops would show up ...
