      'The explorer Christopher Columbus made four trips across the Atlantic Ocean from Spain: in 1492, 1493, 1498 and 1502.' I knew that Christopher Colombus went sailing across the Atlantic ocean but I didn't know that he made 4 trips. I wonder how many boats did they took to sail?

    I already know that 10,000 or more people died in the tsunami.
    I learned that 6,107 people got injured.
    I have a question. Why always Japan has a tsunami.

    What I already new from another source that I cannot remember is that lead his troops into Valley Forge. What I learned is that George Washington was chosen to be commander in chief in 1775 to lead the American forces and that is what made him cross the Delaware River in New Jersey. But then why would he go right through the icy river? It would be dangerous!

    I already know that Egypt had worst women's rights: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_Egypt

    I learned:Egypt is now the worst country for women's rights in the Arab world, according to a poll of experts on gender issues in 22 Arab states.(I copied and paste)

    Question: How did Egyptian men treated women so badly that in the website, it said Egypt had worst women's rights?

    I visted http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesopotamia#Economy_and_agriculture for information. It was connecting with what I inferred. They said people lived near the rivers and maybe in the flood plains. My thinking got extended when they said irrigation. I was like " So it must be very different with and without irrigation". It was challenging for me because there was high leveled words. Also there was a bunch of other that made so sense to me at all. I think I should read again some time.

    I went to this YouTube video: http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=women%20rights%201950s%20america&qs=n&form=QBVR&pq=women%20rights%201950s%20america&sc=1-25&sp=-1&sk=#view=detail&mid=39F03B9FCB75F2D43AE139F03B9FCB75F2D43AE1 I already knew some women activists that impacted the women's role of life and now I know even more. For example: Betty Friedan I would like to know what the women rights activists do to impact the women’s role and how.
