What mattered to me when we read the "Quiet gender gap hits collegiate balance" and "Woman raise bar at colleges" was that the articles were very offensive to guys. The articles said that girls were smarter and more likely to get into college and have a better education than boys. It also said that girls have a higher graduation rate than boys. I think that there are boys that are like the girls that can be smarter than some girls but this articles make it sound like boys just suck in college and dont know anything. All of this kinda offended me and i thought that all boys in colleges could do better than this.

In the video "Did You Know" by Karl Fisch, what matters the most is the future. The whole presentation is about the world and what is happening every where in the world. One of the things that he said was that China will become the number one English speaking country in the world. That is very amazing becasue how will all of the people in China learn the language? It also said that by 2013 there will be a thousand dollar computer that will exceed the human brain in knowledge. That was very scary to think about that technology will exceed the human race.
