This was made by @antimatter15, in other words, me. Because I don't really like writing about myself or at least, I think I nailed narcissism with the last project's about page, so I'll just copy and paste it here. The source code is available on github. A totally irrelevant fact is that at time of writing I'm 15 years old, but that tends to make people treat this as more of an accomplishment than it really is and thus more inclined to share it. If you have you have any comments or suggestions, feel free to send a tweet in my direction @antimatter15 or email me at antimatter15@gmail.com. this app is made with jquery, html, raphael, icons from the crystal project, touchscroll, the jsgif project, based on the as3 gif lib, the raphael color wheel. Help Don't know how to use this app? Shameless Plugs there's tons of awesome things I've done.
Watch Free Documentaries Online America before Columbus History books traditionally depict the pre-Columbus Americas as a pristine wilderness where small native villages lived in harmony with nature. But scientific evidence tells a very different story: When Columbus stepped ashore in 1492, millions of people were already living there. America wasn't exactly a New World, but a very old one whose inhabitants had built a vast infrastructure of cities, orchards, canals and causeways. The English brought honeybees to the Americas for honey, but the bees pollinated orchards along the East Coast. Settlers in the Americas told of rivers that had more fish than water. In 1491, more people lived in the Americas than in Europe. It’s believed that the domestication of the turkey began in pre-Columbian Mexico, and did not exist in Europe in 1491.

For some of us, it’s easy to choose to be healthy. We can’t control whether disease or accidents strike, but we can decide where we live and what we eat, as well as if, when and how much we’ll exercise. Some of us live in a culture of health — a time and place where, for the most part, we have the real hope and opportunity to live a healthy life. But for many more of us, it isn’t — we don’t have that choice. We live in unsafe neighborhoods. The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation was at TED2015 in Vancouver last week, where the theme was Truth & Dare. In a few weeks, five young filmmakers created powerful videos about their communities and lives. Ricardo Amparo, 17, lives there too, and echoed, “Violence is all around me … As a young black man in Baltimore, I’m trying to be a positive person, but I often feel trapped in a negative environment.” These young filmmakers believe, like I do, that everyone deserves a chance to live the healthiest life possible.
9 Totally NOT Boring History Movies for Kids Welcome back to the 2nd part of our Summer Movies for Kids series! Last week, we featured outstanding kids books that were made into movies -- this week, we're focusing on movies that make history FUN! When I was younger, I would complain to my Grandmother about my history homework all the time! I hated memorizing all those dates. I never understood why we had to know what happened in the past. It was all so boring to me. But there was a method to my madness -- you see, my Grandmother LOVED history! When I started complaining, she would tell me super interesting stories about the topic -- things they never taught in the classroom. And I quickly learned that was the key -- find a way to make learning about the past interesting! In addition to sharing some of our favorite history movies, we're also listing hands-on activities that will help kids to dig a little deeper and learn about some of the historic events and people introduced in each film. Now you might be thinking "How is Mr.
