History textbooks are still a primary source
High school history teachers across the country are slowly realizing that their textbooks are outdated. That is, they've recently digested the latest research on primary sources in history and are frantically rewriting their curriculum materials. This is great news for students — thanks to more authentic primary sources, they'll be better prepared to understand our modern past and the context of current events.

Why is a controlled atmosphere system replacing the electrical stunning poultry slaughter method?
Slaughter is the first phase of poultry processing and debatably the most challenging and complex. It involves killing living animals and ensuring they are effectively fed into a system without getting themselves stressed or the staff dealing with them. Poultry slaughter practices have consequences for meat quality, effectiveness, and an invisible element: our relations as humans with the creatures we utilize for meat. Therefore, an alternative poultry slaughter practice is getting great attention in the United States of America. Almost every industrial level poultry slaughter equipment stuns poultry birds to begin their slaughter. This is because nearly every poultry slaughter equipment manufacturer has designed that equipment to kill them by stunning them. Electrical stunning, generally through a water bath, is the standard poultry slaughtering practice in the United States of America due to its speedy throughput and comparatively low cost, both operational and capital.

A lesbian love story, about a princess locked in a tower, and a charming knight, comes to save her. Happy pride month. There weren't always dragons in the Valley. It use to be nice. There were flowers growing every which way, trees filled the lands, and children even played in the valleys, laughing and telling stories. But all this was now a distance blur from the past.

Unified Microservices Patterns (UMP)
Most of us remember the beginnings of the visual modeling era in the 90s where a lot of leaders worked individually to develop their own methods. In that era, things were messy as there was no single universal language for modeling notations which affected negatively the communication, documentation and collaboration between the different teams.

Main Concepts in Software Architecture
I have always wondered the difference between Module, Subsystem, and Component. As simple as it may seem, this is one of the most challenging questions. Each concept from the above has no single unified definition among the software architecture communities. Each community defines and uses these concepts differently, which makes communications about architecture challenging to comprehend.
