"You Must Be The Change You Wish To See In The World." -Mahatma Gandhi

In life personal goals are a way to motivate yourself in order to feel good. Not only that but things get accomplished much faster and provide that feeling of determination. Also, I believe that it makes one a better person in life when they feel accomplished it gives off that positive energy. Their peers and community will be able to see it and feel it. Lastly, if that person is really successful in their goals they can give back to their community by providing the use of their talents which they excelled in.

  • Hides objects from radar detectors. 
  • Tiny antennas that cloak the object in an electromagnetic field. 
  • This technology can be used for military purposes.
  • Can be used to improve cellular signals.

Typhoon Haiyan blighted the central islands of the Philippines, it destroyed cities, towns, and fishing villages. Its crazy how 10,000 people died alone in Tacloban alone. People who lived through this tragedy are very depressed either by seeing their personal belonging and town destroy or losing somebody dear. This experience for the Philippines has been abrasive and brutal, it has been as bad as seeing people thrown around by the typhoon and corpses laying on the wreckage. I think that these people in the Philippines need a lot of help and support to move forward just like new jersey did for Super Storm Sandy, or the damage done to Oklahoma recently. If we can not help physically then the least we could do here in America is send over supplies.
