Watch Tom Cruise in a Trailer for The Mummy 2017
Universal Pictures continues to uncover new material from the ancient pyramids of Egypt with a new movie titled The Mummy. Tom Cruise attempts to replace Brendan Fraser in the lead role. The last time The Mummy had a theatrical run, Fraser was the lead actor. After three movies spanning from 1999 to 2008, the idea is being revamped for release in 2017. They should call The Mummy 4, but nobody is really keeping track. It is also a way from Universal to replace Fraser with Cruise, in hopes fewer people will notice the transition. If they make a sequel to this film,

The Donald Trump Transition Takes Steps in the Right Direction
The Donald Trump transition continues to reshape the political structure of the United States. He has made suggestions for a tax plan that would put a 35% tax on businesses that hire staff outside of the country for lower wages. I strongly back raising taxes on everyone to help get our country out of debt. Another strong suggestion for the Donald Trump transition team is to raise taxes early in his presidency, and turn the tables on the mainstream media. Deep down, I truly believe Trump wants to help this country grow. It doesn't make any sense for him
Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Announced Dakota Access Pipeline to be Rerouted
The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe has announced today on Twitter that the Dakota Access Pipeline will not run under Lake Oahe as proposed, and the Army Corp of Engineers will be looking for additional routes to run the pipeline. For those unfamiliar with Lake Oahe, it is a large reservoir behind the Oahe Dam on the Missouri River. The Missouri River is the longest river in the Untied States. If the pipeline had gone under the lake, or if it gets close to a main river, it could still pollute drinking water. Not all pipelines malfunction, but enough of them do to create
Facebook Express Wi-fi Arrives in Underdeveloped Areas in India
India is working with Facebook to provide underdeveloped areas with access to the Internet. In early 2016, Facebook attempted to work out a partnership with India, but hit roadblocks with their crafty algorithms. Mashable reported: 'In January, India’s telecoms regulator rejected Facebook’s Free Basics program after more than a million people registered complaints abut the plan, which would have given free access to specific websites chosen by Facebook.' After digging into Free Basics by Facebook developers, I was able to find out that companies and individuals have to request to be apart of this new service. It also let

An Introspective Glance at Startup Culture on Small Business Saturday
Small Business Saturday follows the madness from Black Friday each year by inviting consumers away from the big box stores, and down to Main Street to help spur and drive the local economy. Yesterday was also Record Store Day Black Friday, which is an annual event that provides local, independent record stores with limited released vinyl to bring in shoppers. This initiative creates a large buzz for indie record stores. What Small Business Saturday is missing from their annual event is driving force that will draw in crowds. The element that Record Store Day has benefited from is the communication
The Standing Rock Native American Reservation has Become the Epicenter of the Environment
The Army Corps of Engineers sent a letter on Friday to the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe explaining that the violent confrontations have taken place, and they are shutting down the campgrounds, (area north of the Cannonball River, including the Oceti Sakowin camp). After December 5, protestors will be cited and charged with trespassing if still on the land. The trespassing citation is just a way for government to try and clear some of the land for the oil companies to dig under the Missouri River. According to standingrock.org, the website notes that: 'The tribe maintains jurisdiction on all reservation
How Election 2020 Will Be Decided by the Electoral College
Election 2016 left a majority of the country trying to figure out why a candidate with over a million votes in the popular election could lose the overall election. The answer is Donald Trump did a better job of campaigning in swing states with important electoral votes better than Hillary Clinton overall. Donald Trump is not only a politician by definition, but he was better at being a political candidate than Clinton with years of experience. What Trump did well is connect with voters on the economy. (He used the energy within the Bernie Sanders campaign on the oppression with
Stream New Music with Macklemore and Ryan Lewis
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis recently released 'Wednesday Morning' on YouTube. This marks the second unreleased track pairing with 'Drug Dealer' that was released in late October. The Seattle hiphop duo make serious lyrical progress with these two songs, but the beat structure lacks commercial appeal to get the message out to a mass audience. One of the elements that I appreciate about Macklemore's lyrics is his ability to cover complex and simplex topics. 'Wednesday Morning' takes the world back to Wednesday, November 9, 2016. For those that may have forgot what happened on that morning; Donald Trump was announced to
