                    Women’s rights convention – Sojourner Truth

      One of the most unique and interesting
speeches of the convention was made by Sojourner
Truth, an emancipated slave. It is impossible to
transfer it to paper or convey any adequate idea of the
effect it produced upon the audience. Those only can
appreciate it who saw her powerful form, her whole-souled,
earnest gesture, and listened to her strong and
truthful tones. She came forward to the platform and
addressing the President said with great simplicity:
      "May I say a few words?" Receiving an
affirmative answer, she proceeded: I want to say a few
words about this matter. I am a woman's rights. I have
as much muscle as any man and can do as much work
as any man. I have plowed and reaped and husked
and chopped and mowed, and can any man do more
than that? I have heard much about the sexes being
equal. I can carry as much as any man, and can eat
as much too, if I can get it. I am as strong as any man
that is now. As for intellect, all I can say is, if a woman
has a pint, and a man a quart -- why can't she have
her little pint full? You need not be afraid to give us our
rights for fear we will take too much; -- for we can't take
more than our pint will hold. The poor men seem to be
all in confusion, and don't know what to do. Why
children, if you have woman's rights, give it to her and
you will feel better. You will have your own rights, and
they won't be so much trouble. I can't read, but I can
hear. I have heard the bible and have learned that Eve
caused man to sin. Well, if a woman upset the world,
do give her a chance to set it right side up again. The
Lady has spoken about Jesus, how he never spurned
woman from him, and she was right. When Lazarus
died, Mary and Martha came to him with faith and love
and besought him to raise their brother. And Jesus
wept and Lazarus came forth. And how came Jesus
into the world? Through God who created him and the
woman who bore him. Man, where was your part? But
the women are coming up blessed be God and a few
of the men are coming up with them. But man is in a
tight place, the poor slave is on him, woman is coming
on him, he is surely between a hawk and a buzzard.

What Causes a Super Blood Moon?
By Daniel Victor, Sept, 25, 2015. 

   A rare astronomical phenomenon Sunday night will produce a moon that will appear slightly bigger  usual and have a reddish hue, an event known as a super blood moon. 

  It’s a combination of curiosities that hasn’t  since 1982, and won’t happen again  2033. A so-called supermoon, which occurs when the moon is closest to earth in its orbit, will coincide with a lunar eclipse, leaving the moon in Earth’s shadow. Individually, the two phenomena are not uncommon, but they do not align often. 
  Most people are unlikely to detect the larger size of the supermoon. It may appear 14 percent larger and 30 percent brighter, but the difference is subtle to the plain eye. But the reddish tint from the lunar eclipse is likely to be visible throughout much of North America, especially on the East Coast.
  “You’re basically seeing all of the sunrises and sunsets across the world, all at once, being reflected off the surface of the moon,” said Dr. Sarah Noble, a program scientist at NASA.

The verb phrase in "lLots of schools that have embraced the transition" (lines 35) is in the :

Check the sentence that contains the PRESENT PERFECT verb
tense: 

      Goods in transit refers to merchandise and other inventory items that have been shipped by the seller, but have ..I.. been
received by the purchaser. To illustrate goods in transit, let's use the following example. Company J ships a truckload of merchandise
on December 30 to Customer K, which is located 2,000 miles away. The truckload of merchandise arrives at Customer K on January 2.
Between December 30 and January 2, the truckload of merchandise is goods in transit. The goods in transit requires special attention if
the companies issue financial statements as of December 31. The reason is that the merchandise is the inventory of one of the two
companies. However, the merchandise is not physically present at either company. One of the two companies must add the cost of the
goods in transit to the cost of the inventory that it has in its possession.
      The terms of the sale will indicate which company should report the goods in transit as its inventory as of December 31. If the
terms are FOB shipping point, the seller (Company J) will record a December sale and receivable, and ..II..  include the goods in
transit as its inventory. On December 31, Customer K is the owner of the goods in transit and will need to report a purchase, a payable,
and must add the cost of the goods in transit to the cost of the inventory which is in its possession.
      If the terms of the sale are FOB destination, Company J will not have a sale and receivable until January 2. This means
Company J must report the cost of the goods in transit in its inventory on December 31. (Customer K will not have a purchase,
payable, or inventory of these goods until January 2.)

Based on TEXT 2, a fictional blog, answer question
TEXT 2
I do realize that in the world of technology there are early and late
adopters. I’m not the earliest of cutting-edge early TESL adopters,
but I do like to try out new technology and incorporate it into my
teaching. This list is a handful of technologies that are established
enough not to be too problematic, user-friendly enough that just
about anyone can start using them quickly, and useful enough that
you’ll soon wonder how you got along without them. In short, this
is a list of tech that just about everyone can (and maybe even
should) be using in 2010.
1. Wikipedia – It has become popular to question its
accuracy. Wikipedia has become a real knowledge
bank on the internet. Once we figure out what it is
(a compilation of all referenced knowledge) many of
these criticisms fall down. Access to all this information
means a reorganization of learning.
2. Google – No, I don’t just mean search, but all the other
stuff: maps, docs, calendar, etc. It’s never been so easy
to collaborate with other people.
3. Twitter – A year ago, I taught a course through Twitter
with mixed results. This microblog is almost exclusively
interactive, but my ESL students found it tough to
collaborate within Twitter because of its constraints on
length. The email by contrast, is very simple – it is
equally interactive but it is constraint free. So, you should
use it and you should see interesting results !
Can you learn the language by using the above alone? Of course
not! But they are a good springboard and I hope they lead you to
discover all other media available out there (ebooks, blogs,
YouTube videos, music, movies, etc.).
More web in the pipeline. Please post a comment.

popular…” and in “Wikipedia has become...”
