Gender is how society defines if your a boy or a girl. It’s different from being biologically male or female. But in the United States, it might soon mean the same. On Monday, October 22nd the Trump administration wants to change the definition of gender. Lots of people spoke out to this memo, including Diana Flynn who is one of the leaders at Lambda Legal. Lambda Legal is a group which fights for LGBTQ rights.  "For years, courts across the country have recognized that discriminating against someone because they are transgender is a form of sex discrimination," Flynn says. Many other people also spoke out at a news event. Mara Keisling, a leader of the National Center for Transgender Rights, spoke with many other activists. She says that she feels like she’s in danger because of this memo. There have been many other attacks on the transgender community.

So, on Wednesday the 17th, our class and the other ATP class went on an amazing trip! We went to Bonnie Brae to explore BMI's and the stream. Once we got to our location, we started right away (since we were a bit late). We got into groups and headed down to the stream. My group was Kira, Jasjit, Navita, Urvi, Simar and me.

We had to figure out the turbidity, pH, temperature and the oxygen in the water. The results were pretty fair. The pH was an eight, the turbidity was 40 JSU, the oxygen l

On an island far away live the evilest villains on the planet. To make sure magic doesn't reach the island an invisible dome was built over the island. Maleficent, Jafar, The Evil Queen and Cruella de Vil are raising the most rotten villains when those villains get an invitation to attend a school outside the island they accept the invitation. Those same rotten villains choose the side of good. When Maleficent broke open the dome and got out it was up to Mal, Evie, Jay and Carlos to stop her. Mal defeated Maleficent by transforming her into a lizard. Life in Auradon is terrific, after defeating her mother Mal was considered a hero.

Mal cliches the table to help herself from falling. Once the earthquake had stopped Mal resumed her studies. Buzz! Her phone rings as she gets a message. You must return to the Isle of the
