Homemade Masks

New Stylish Protective Masks

      As the Covid-19 has grown out of the control these past three months, the Center for Disease Control (CDC) recommends to the public that they were medical masks in order to try to slow down the spread of the coronavirus. Naturally, these medical masks have become scarce, because the whole country is constantly trying to buy them to keep their friends and families safe. 


      We need masks as a protective gear these days. Many designers and creative professionals took it upon themselves to design fashionable and colorful masks to sell online. I find these creative masks to be an amazing idea because these masks will work to keep individuals healthy, and they are also a fun and creative way to boost up morale during this pandemic time. I find it so inspiring that individuals and companies are trying to find a way to be helpful during this global health crisis. For example, Etsy is a website that focuses on all handmade items. Etsy has decided to create several different types of homemade masks for people in need. People all over the world are creating these masks in order to make sure all the medical and surgical masks go to people who are working in the hospitals every day in search of a cure to this horrible disease. These individuals are making these masks in their own homes in order to stay positive and busy during this quarantine. 


      These designers are really taking the creation of these masks seriously by making sure that they are following the Center for Disease Control's guidelines on what makes a suitable mask for health care professionals. A designer named Batanti- Khalfani has created colorful masks like in the photo above for both all members of society, including health providers. Health professionals are loving this idea of colorful masks because it is a little joy that is put in their current stressful work life. I feel that these creative masks should only be released to the health care department, when it is definitely confirmed that they provide the same protection as surgical masks. I believe in this because these health care workers are the people who are risking their lives every day. We need to make sure that they have the right equipment on them to keep them as safe as possible at all times.
      I personally love this idea of creative masks. I love how even though this virus has caused so much damage and sadness to our country, it has always brought us together as a country. This virus has encouraged people to go out of their way to try and help others that they know are suffering. This virus has definitely allowed our country to put away our egos, and come together as one. The creative masks are just one example of people having the country's best interest at heart.

Disney Parks

Disney Parks & Covid-19       Covid-19 has taken a toll on our society as a whole, especially in the most magical place on earth. Disney World and Disneyland have both had to close due to the coronavirus outbreak. Disney is all about bringing together individuals from all over the world to celebrate light and laughter together. There is never a dull moment in Disney, it is constantly packed with people making memories with their friends and family. Everywhere you go to in Disney, you are surrounded by tons of people enjoying the same Disney stories as you. However, because of the presence of the virus, we don't even know if Disney will ever be the same again.       Disney World and Disneyland are taking very cautious measures to make that when they do reopen the parks that their customers are completely safe. Disney World is focusing on reopening in stages to make sure they are being extra careful. They plan to reopen up to 75 percen...

Fake News is Everywhere

Fake News is Everywhere       Facebook has focused a lot of their attention on making sure that their site is free from misinformation and fake news. They have even gone as far as to make new policies in order to keep fake news completely separate for their site. However, the editable link previews that Facebook had previously abolished because they caused misinformation, have recently resurfaced about six months ago. The editable link preview on Facebook gain people the access to edit images, headlines, and descriptions on public posts. Facebook terminated this feature back in 2017, because of the huge amount of fake news that was created because of it, but in September of 2019, it came back.      In my opinion, I am very impressed by how serious Facebook took this fake news information from the beginning. I believe that the fake news within our media culture has gotten extremely out of hand, especially on social media. My favorite aspect of soc...

The Power of the U.S. Supreme Court

THE POWER OF THE U.S. SUPREME COURT      As I was watching this video about the U.S. Supreme Court, there are many tactics I learned that the Supreme Court performs that I never knew before. This video explained to me the everyday life of the nine justices and the ways in which they come up with their overall decisions.       The Supreme Court was made in order to draw the boundaries of governmental power. The Supreme Court's main focus is to interpret the U.S. Constitution into everyday life issues and cases. John Marshall played a very crucial part in making the Constitution a key part of the judicial system. The nine justices' job is to use the words of the Constitution in order to solve problems that are occurring over 200 years later. The nine justices would use the same approach for each case in order to be as straight and fair as possible. Every petition gets the same individual consideration. They receive about 7,000 cases a year. The...
