TEACH THE CONTROVERSYMark Twain famously said, "Don't let school interfere with your education." Although the famed author who quit school at age 12 had more meanings in mind than calling out specific educational untruths, it turns out plenty of the "facts" learned in school are actually myths, propaganda, misinformation, or downright lies.

What’s the future hold? In 2018, you needn’t pay a few dollars for a fortune teller with a crystal ball—or dog-eared copy of Isaac Asimov—to try and peer into the future. No, today we have futurists. These are usually deeply educated soothsayers who rely as much on data and trend lines as they do on their imaginations to paint a picture of what life will be like many years down the road.We spoke with several of these futurists to get a sense of what life will be like a full century down the road. So read on, hop into our DeLorean, and enjoy! www.msn.com/en-us/lifestyle/smart-living/this-is-what-life-could-look-like-100-years-from-now/ss-BBKu1B4?li=BBnb7Kz
We have visions of what America's past was really like, but do we actually know what it was like? We can only decipher the history through relics: ancient written works, icons and items from centuries past, paintings, and most of all, pictures. Since the 1850s, photography has been a staple of American history, and we have recorded things we might have otherwise never known about, thanks to work of tireless photographers. And through it all, we have captured a snapshot portrait of the United States of America in a single slideshow.
These rare, vintage photos are more than just pictures. They're living, breathing relics of a moment forever frozen in time that shows us amazing things about the way that our country is, and the way our country was. Some of these pictures will break your heart, others will make you laugh, and still others will fascinate you. And nothing international here: all of these photos are homegrown American! But you have probably never seen most of these photographs before anyway, so we really think you will thoroughly enjoy this slideshow. These powerful images, showing what the United States REALLY used to be like, will take your breath away.

The show has often been referred to as one of the best family sitcoms of all time, which got us wondering about what other shows might appear in that ranking. When formulating our list, we chose to only include shows with plotlines that primarily revolve around family members and family matters, which excludes shows like “I Love Lucy,” “The Jeffersons,” and “Frasier,” which each include at least three related people, but don’t routinely focus on the family as a main theme. With that, here are the 25 best family sitcoms of all time. Read more goo.gl/KkNyfc
NEW YORK — Mass crowds of adults, teenagers, and children took to the streets on Saturday in support of stricter gun control laws.
About 2 million people attended more than 750 "March for Our Lives" rallies across the US, and the main event held in Washington, DC may have rivaled attendance at the January 2017 Women's March, according to Axios. The protests occurred just six weeks after 17 people were shot to death at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. In that February 14 mass shooting in Parkland, Florida, a 19-year-old former student is believed to have committed the murders using a legally purchased AR-15 assault rifle.
