well talking about concussions. I knew it was a pretty common thing it the sport of football but the numbers this tells you is alot. And it says that the players returned after 2 weeks. Im not a doctor but something tells me that if your brain bounces off the side of your skull that your gonna need more then 2 weeks to fully recover from that. It also stated the 17 people have died from it. All high school players this is kinda sad but I think that only 17 is a good statistic out of all the players that receive concussions. I think that more precaution should be taken when it comes to protecting players and treating them. This could save the lives of the 17 and help prevent other concussions from happening. This paper also states that to be released the person must be symptom free for 7 days. What even are the symptoms of a concussion. I dont have a clue. But I do think that the time to wait should be pushed back way more with kids that brains are still maturing. So that they dont get hurt worse and end up ruining the rest of their lives. And now im gonna give you my opinion on coaches that want to win even tho it comes down to putting a hurt kid back into the game hurting him even worse even death. This just is crazy and I know that it is different in some people than others but I think that when it comes down to a decision like that the kids parents and athletic trainer should make the choice not the coach. Because most are hungry for the win and would do anything to get that.

Ok this person talks about how they are stressed for their students. I believe him but there are alot of teachers who just want to get the paycheck and could care less if the kids are making it through school. They say that you aren't coming to school to learn it is to learn how to survive life when the going gets tough. And that school may seem difficult but when it comes to reality it is easy and you with you could go back. And that you are just quitting when you dont do anything or when you skipclass or dont pay any attention. And this is so true doing this is getting you nowhere and is only hurting you so you need to buckle down and do what you need to do. So you can make it through school with no troubles and start you life out ahead. And we need more teaches that will push kids that get lazy and dont do what there supposed to do to straighten out because they are just hurting themselves when they dont do these in school. This article really inspires me to do better in school because I want to succeed and have a good time to but it all comes down to your future and your really hurting it when you quit and get lazy.

So the election just happened. And everyone is talking about what should have passed and what didnt I could care less really. Maybe it will came to me when I am old enough to vote but not now. i think this article of the week is really stupid and boring. All it talks about is the politicians campaigning and what there are doing so that more people see their ads to vote for them. I think it is really smart of them to go to social media with all the people that are on it. That is genius I dont know why they didnt think of this earlier. That is a sure fire way to get more votes.

Rise of the Machines
I think it is extremely stupid of someone to want a machine to be smarter than humans that just makes no sense to me. I believe that if the machine is smarter than humans they would want to wipe humans off the face of the earth so they could be the top of the food chain. I see the movie terminator when I picture machines rising over humans. People keep saying that this is a real possibility of happening soon and too be honest I'm kinda scared.  don't want a machine wanting to kill me and to be smarter than me. They are just supposed to make life easier and to be tools. So if you ask me super intelligence is a curse. I kinda hope there are some people like me out there so this doesn't end up happening. I have heard that some computers are already smart like they can win chess games and I don't even know how to play. I heard of one experiment were the robots actually learned and there are not programmed that way so they can actually adapt.
