C.E. 4.4

1- Apple is trying to keep their strict encryption systems in place so the government cannot spy on people through their phones. They don't want the government to have power over them.
2- The food supplement that might be able to help autistic kids according to Texas A&M researchers is carnitine. If the women who are pregnant take this in supplements than it's better than folic acid.
 3- Walmart says that what caused their earnings to drop last quarter was the fact that they are becoming slightly irrelevant due to Amazon.com. It's more common for people to order their stuff online.
4-  The high schools were appealing to UIL regarding sports district alignments because they wanted out of their own districts. Because the new district will be hard for the team such as the time that it takes to travel through traffic and costs more.
5- Some popular VR devices coming to market soon include the Oculus Rift and the HTC Vive which are basically headsets that transfer you to a different place, almost like you're living the video game. 



I learned that now that One of the nine justices are dead  and there are four conservatives and four liberals left in the supreme court. Supreme court Justice Antonin Scalia has recently died causing all of this. If congress doesn't have any pressure to fix the deadlock problem than lots of future cases while end undeceive. There should be pressure on this deadlock or else no one would have the drive to fix it. Obama doesn’t have a lot of time as president left, but he should be able to say what he thinks to the supreme court. Because he is still president and the others haven’t been elected yet so he still has the right to be involved in this.
