The ancient Greek mystical world was ruled by a small group of gods called the Olympians. When things had to be decided, the council of 12 gods met on Mount Olympus to discuss things. 
All the Olympians kept a home on Mount Olympus. Unless they were off traveling somewhere, that's where you could find most of them. Hades preferred his home in the Underworld. Poseidon preferred his palace under the sea. But the rest of the Olympians lived on Mount Olympus. 
Cadmus was credited by the ancient Greeks. Cadmus was the son of Agenor and the brother of Europa. He was the founder of the city of Thebes. After Zeus kidnapped Europa, Agenor ordered her brothers -- Cadmus, Phoenix, and Cilix -- to search for her, instructing them not to return until they had found her. It was a hopeless quest, and all three brothers became exiles. Phoenix founded the country of Phoenicia, and Cilix established Cilicia. Cadmus consulted the oracle at Delphi and was told to follow a cow that he would find near the oracle; where the cow lay down to rest, he should found a city. He followed the cow to the future site of Thebes. There he instructed his men to bring water so that he could offer a sacrifice to Athena; however, the men encountered a giant serpent which was sacred to Ares, and they were all killed.

Zeus is the ruler of the Olympian gods. He is often seen with a lighting bolt. Zeus, the great presiding deity of the universe, the ruler of heaven and earth, was regarded by the Greeks, first, as the god of all aerial phenomena; secondly, as the personification of the laws of nature; thirdly, as lord of state-life; and fourthly, as the father of gods and men.
Zeus was the god of the sky and ruler of the Olympian gods. Zeus overthrew his Father Cronus.He then drew lots with his brothers Poseidon andHades. Zeus won the draw and became the supreme ruler of the gods. He is lord of the sky, the rain god. His weapon is a thunderbolt which he hurls at those who displease him. He is married to Hera but, is famous for his many affairs. He is also known to punish those that lie or break oaths.

U.S. Teen Pregnancy Rate Remains Highest In Developed World 

On January 19, 2012 , an author By Shari Roan, Los Angeles Times / For the Booster Shots blog posted a article about teens pregnancy. Teen pregnancy rates in the United States have fallen in recent years, but the country still has a higher rate than any other developed country. The global incidence of girls under 18 giving birth has declined steadily for decades, but with 7.3 million children born to teenage mothers each year. " In the State of World Population 2013 , the world body observes that 95% of the teens giving birth each year live in the developing world, where access to birth control and protections against early marriage and sexual violence are weakest. " I agree with the author because teens should be having protected sex instead of unprotected sex. I think the author is an expert because everything that she is saying is 100% true!
Births to women ages 15-19 and 20-24 in the U.S. declined to "historic lows" in 2011, declining to 31.3 births per 1,000 women, said researchers at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control's National Center for Health Statistics.

His major accomplishments are ending the hate between the blacks and the whites, nobel peace prize winner, created the southern christian leadership conference to direct the civil.King forms the Southern Christian Leadership Conference to fight segregation and achieve civil rights. On May 17, 1957 , Dr. King speaks to a crowd of 15,000 in Washington, D.C. In 1958, the U.S. Congress passed the first Civil Rights Act since reconstruction. Resigns from pastoring the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church to concentrate on civil rights full time. He moved to Atlanta to direct the activities of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference.Martin Luther King Jr. had enormous impact on the desegregation of the United States in the 1960's. He had arguable the largest impact of any civil rights leader of his time. King began his civil rights activities in 1955 when he protested Montgomery's segregated bus system. The protest was started after an African American bus passenger by the name of Rosa Parks was arrested after failing to give up her seat to a white passenger. After the arrest African Americans encouraged others to boycott the Montgomery bus system. They formed a secret group called the Montgomery Improvement Association and elected King there leader. Throughout Martin Luther Kings speech he uses emotional appeal to relate to the audience, draw the audience in, and bring forth an understanding of segregation and discrimination. " I am not a mindful that some of you have come here out of much trials and tribulations. Some of you have come from fresh narrow jail cells. And some of you have come from areas where your quest-quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecution and staggered by the winds of police brutality." Martin Luther King, Jr. also had logical appeals. He used logical appeal in his " I Have A Dream " speech. " I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."
