Editorial Do Now

An editorial is an article in a newspaper or other periodical presenting the opinion of the publisher, editor, or editors.  Most of my teachers have told me that Wikipedia is a bad source for finding information on the internet.  While I believe this is not true in any way, Wikipedia is a much better source of information rather than a "startup" website with only a single person to back them.  After reading this article my editorial on Wikipedia stands firmly in place as what it is.

Educational Technology and Copyright Law

Copyrights are a major issue for everyone, if not used correctly.  When not used in the right way, whatever you own, with the unauthorized copyright, you can get shut down or fined.  Although, there are a lot of ways to avoid doing that.  Using copyrights for educational purposes could be one, or just giving the company who made the copyrighted product money.  Getting a copyrighted product for education would be very important for the students.  The products are good for everyone, that needs them for education and/or entertainment. 

Colt Hockey Stick

The Colt Hockey Stick

The Colt Hockey Stick is one the newest and is definitely the most durable stick on the market.  For all hockey players, breaking sticks is a big problem.  After two to six weeks you break your stick; another 200 down the drain.  Created by a group on Kickstarter, the group dreamed to make unbreakable hockey stick.  The men made their stick different, it is dipped in nano steel.  That is right, the stick is dipped in the durable yet light weight material.  It can withstand 397 pounds of pressure without breaking.  The prices match up with the top line products of other companies in the industry.  However they may have one flaw in their plan: is it so durable that it cannot break, and people cannot by more of these sticks.  The community can only wait to see how a beautiful idea may become a disaster.

More Protection?

     Yes there is much more protection.  Neck guards have worked a way into hockey.  With lightweight cloth on the outside and flexible padding on the inside.  It has maximum padding to protect injuries in that area.  I would use this once it is required.https://www.shockdoctor.com/core-neck-guard 

A change in everything

     In hockey wood sticks lasted since the early 1990's.  Since then composite sticks have been used.  Composite is a light material found in shower stalls and bathtubs.  Composite gives your stick a better flex for harder shots.  There is one down side to composite, when you throw away composite it goes into land fills ad doesn't brake down, but you can recycle composite.  I use composite for most of my hockey sticks and it does make a difference when I play.
