Bell RInger 4/25/12

Transportation and communication spread the Industrial Revolution immensely by mingling with other people faster and better.
Women and children lives changed for they actually got to work for once, although they didn't recieve much pay for a while.
Methods of production changed because they were looking for efficiency
Machinery working increased the efficiency by a lot and the work conditons became poor for the owners were thinking in the "mind" set of machines.
Inventions in the textile industry lead to more inventions because they get thinking of how to better effieciency and all that.

I think that blaming the video game is a ridicoulesss statement and those who believe it's true are truly idiotic. Like the people were saying there were other influences involved in his actions. These are my thoughts about this bellringer.

Answer to Bell Ringer 4/11/12

We discussed this topic during classe; I think he should have been fired for the comment he made since it is bashing a certain race and America is trying to stay away from racial comments.

Answer to the Bell Ringer 4/16/2012

I think that the most important invention in the European society is the spinning jenny for it doubled the amount of products we could produce in the textile industry. This way we were protected from wind and stuff, it also allowed us to make blankets so we were kept warm.
