Ketanji Brown Jackson was confirmed as the first African-American Supreme Court justice on April 7th, 2022 (one week ago). Jackson attended Harvard for college. She was formerly the Vice Chair of the United States Sentencing Commission from 2010-2014. From 2016 and onward she was a member of the Harvard Board of Overseers. On September 20, 2012, former president Barack Obama nominated Jackson to serve as a judge for the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, and was confirmed. On the 25th of February 2022, president Joe Biden announced he was nominating Jackson for the Supreme Court. Her hearings began on March 21, but the vote resulted in a tie. On April 4th, the vote was taken to a procedural vote in the senate, and the vote was in her favor; 53-47. On April 7th, the same results occurred, confirming her. She will be sworn in sometime in June or July. Jackson will be the first ever Black woman to serve as a Supreme Court justice.

Have you ever wondered what the top ten most eaten foods in America are? Well, I have them here for you today. 10.) Potato chips! These are also the #1 snack food. 9.) Donuts! I LOVE donuts. My favorite donut places are Krispy Kreme, Stans Donuts, and there was a place called Glazed and Infused, but sadly it closed. 8.) Ice Cream! I'm not surprised ice cream is on this list. It's a delicious cold treat for a hot day in the summer. 7.) Chicken Tenders! When I was little, the only things I would eat at restaurants were butter noodles, PB&J sandwiches, and chicken tenders. My favorite was obviously chicken tenders, and I still order them today. 6.) Sodas! It's not food, but people drink so many of these that it could be their entire meals. My favorite sodas are Coca Cola, 7-up, and Fanta. 5.) Pizza! If you have never had pizza, are you living under a rock?!?!? I personally love pineapple on pizza, but some people hate it. What do you think? 4.) Oreos! These are the #1 cookie as well. 3.) French Fries! French fries are a crispy fried potato that actually came from BELGIUM and not France. (Who knew!?!) 2.) Hot Dogs! My opinion may be a bit biased because I am from Chicago, but my favorite type of hot dogs are Chicago style. 1.) Aand lastly, the moment you have been waiting for… the most eaten food in america is… HAMBURGERS! I'm not a huge fan of hamburgers, but the best hamburger I have ever had was from Au Cheval. It is a delicious hamburger restaurant that I love. If any of these surprised you, please like this article.

Many people wonder: what is the best pet? When we ask this question, we really think: which pet is the cutest? According to monkeybeach and many other websites , cats are the number one best and cutest pets in the world. Science proves that they are the most adorable, followed by ferrets, rabbits, and hamsters. To many people's surprise, dogs are only in fifth place. It’s likely because the average cuteness is averaged across 100 different dog breeds. The reason cats are considered the cutest animals is because they have soft, fluffy fur, high-pitched mews, and soothing purrs. Humans think animals are cute if they have large heads and big eyes, which cats (and especially kittens) definitely do. If you were surprised by this article, please like it.

North Virginia 1988: My mom and I were having one of those fights again. My dad passed away when I was 5 and it's been hard on us; we moved and tried to forget what happened. I guess I regret this now, but I told my mom I'd leave and not come back. I packed together a sleeping bag, flashlight and some food. I stormed out of the house and made my way up the hilly region of our hometown. Once I found a comfortable spot, I rolled out the sleeping bag and tried to get some sleep. If I got any, it was restless. As I opened my eyes to look at the watch, it felt like I was under the presence of another being. I saw a mild silhouette of a rather large animal-like creature, but it had freakishly humane features too. I thought nothing of it and turned my head trying to get some more sleep. In the morning I ate the last of my food, and decided to apologize to my mother. It was just the wrong time and place that got me angry. As I knocked on the door of my house, no one came, until a bit later an elderly man with an odd hair-style came out and asked what I was doing. I just muttered and ran away. As I was walking through the streets a young girl remarked, "Look at dat poor man, he loogs so sad," pointing towards me. Her mother said, "You must be imagining things, there is nobody there!" When looking straight at me. The girl looked at me once again and kept on walking, looking at the cemetery to the right of her. I was very puzzled, nothing was making sense at all. As I walked into the cemetery I looked for my mother's name, in case she had died. To my surprise, I didn't find her gravestone, but mine! I apparently died in 1988. All of it was too much for me, so I sprinted out of the cemetery and went by the news store. The latest articles were from 2013, which is 25 years after the day I left my mother's house. I went back to the spot where I slept the previous night. The next morning the weather was terrible. I made my way back to my town and knocked once more at my previous house. This time, a police officer came out and asked me for my name. It turns out my mother had called the police to go searching for me. I was extremely happy to be back home, but what still bugged me was the fact that the police had searched exactly where I slept, but I never took my belongings with me that day.

Some people actively go out looking for ghost encounters, and every once in a while, they find one. When Kevin was a teenager, he and his friends had heard about a dangerous turn on the nearby highway that caused many accidents over the years; it was now haunted. The most well-known story was of a mother who took her own life after her son had crashed his car and died there. It was said around town that her ghost remained at the deadly turn to protect people from ending up like her deceased child. Kevin and his friends decided to put that theory to the test. At night, Kevin drove his friends out to the highway. When the group of boys arrived at the turn, they pulled over. They’d brought a bag of flour with them and proceeded to sprinkle the white powder on the road, the grass, and the car. The idea was to get footprints to prove that the ghost was indeed real. The boys hopped back in and began to take the car around the turn. Kevin accelerated faster and faster and—THUMP. The car came to an abrupt halt as if someone had slammed down on it with their own two hands. They immediately got out of the car and saw two woman-sized hand-prints in the white flour on the hood.

This is your Sunday music update to stay up-to-date on the latest music! First, we’re going to look at the Billboard Hot 100. At #1, we have Heat Waves, by Glass Animals. This alternative track has been on the board for over a year now. Even though the lyrics are: ‘Heat waves are fakin’ me out,’ this song’s popularity is not fake. #2, Stay, by The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber. A high energy song like this that brought LAROI to popularity is definitely going to stay a while. Clocking in and #3, we have Big Energy, by Latto. This song is was at #11 last week, and is now at #3. This Big Energy is on a big rise. Onto Super Gremlin, by Kodak Black, which is at #4. It peaked last week at #3, and is now falling. #5 is a little bit of a comeback song, by an artist who everyone thought was done, but then came back. This song is Enemy, by Imagine Dragons and JID, and this song has Dan Reynolds hit a very high note, on ‘Enemyyyyyyy-y!’, and the song in general has also hit a high note. Ghost, by Justin Bieber, was not the star of the album. When Justice dropped, Peaches was the one that took off. But now that the initial shock has passed, Ghost, a song that talks about losing someone dear to you, took off, and has reached number 5, though now it’s at #6. #7. This one is… interesting. abcdefu, by Gayle, at #7. This song is a breakup song, no doubt. Gayle remade the song many different ways, with a ‘angrier’ version and a ‘nicer’ version. One is even more explicit than the original, and the other is clean. This great song peaked at number 3, but has now fallen. #8 is We Don’t About Bruno, by Carolina Gaitan, Mauro Castillo, Adassa, Rhenzy Feliz, Diane Guerrero, Stephanie Beatriz & Encanto Cast. This song is… wow. A Disney song that hit and held number one on the billboard for 10 weeks, and is now entering its 15th week. This song is written by Lin Manuel Miranda. Its popularity will insure that people will never stop talking about Bruno. At #9, there’s THATS WHAT I WANT by Lil Nas X, from his album Montero. This song has been around for a while, and talks about wanting someone to love. Last, but not least, we have Woman, by Doja Cat. After she and SZA dropped Kiss Me More, Doja Cat maintained her popularity with this song. And that is all for the billboard, and now, I’m going to quickly run through the Spotify Top Hits. #1. As It Was - Harry Styles #2. Bam Bam (feat. Ed Sheeran) - Camila Cabello, Ed Sheeran #3. First Class - Jack Harlow #4. Ghost - Justin Bieber #5. THATS WHAT I WANT - Lil Nas X #6. Heat Waves - Glass Animals #7. When You’re Gone - Shawn Mendes #8. Boyfriend - Dove Cameron #9. Woman - Doja Cat #10. Enemy (with JID) - Imagine Dragons, JID, Arcane, League of Legends As you can see, there are similarities and differences in both lists. I’ll be back next Sunday, but until then, don’t forget: Music is Magic.

Cats have excellent hearing and a great sense of smell. They have soft, fluffy fur. They can sense vibrations in the air with there whiskers and are absolutely adorable. Cats are indoor animals that don't need to be walked outside, although they can be introduced to the outdoors. Many people don't understand how long a cat's life is when they buy a cat. A healthy cat can live up to eighteen years old and I know many cats that have lived past that age. They are smart as a younger child and sometimes can learn to open doors. Cats are smart enough to know which meows make you believe they are hungry or sad and use this to their advantage. They usually are pretty small and are often affectionate and particularly loyal to one person. Friendlier cats, such as the Balinese breed (although particular cats are different), can even become friends with a dog. Point is, cats are awesome!!!
