    twin towers construction article
    http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/features/general-article/newyork-engineering/

    I think this article holds a lot of information on the construction of the twin towers. First, it tells you about the interior structure. Also, It tells you about the exterior steel columns and how they help.

    Gallium, a rare metal, has many interesting properties. It has a very low melting point and is in a lot of our every day items, such as phones, cars, and in nuclear bombs. It is so strong it can weaken just about any metal, but isn't found naturally.

    this article tells how on a certain day that the us government Canada and Mexico will make a preparedness drill that will shut down the us power grid. This helps the government how the us citizens will react.this is because cyber hackers and physical hackers might shut down our power grid to send us crazy so we are more vulnerable.

    I understood the warm-up but I had a hard time with it. I tried to look for articles but I could not find a suitable one. I tried different links but none of them worked for me.

    Inside a zombie brain
    http://www.livescience.com/40816-zombie-neuroscience-brains-of-the-walking-dead.html

    The slow zombies"Walkers" probably have something wrong with their cerebellum causing them not to be able to open doors or pick things up. Since their brains are impaired they have a super sense of smell because their brains are not distracted by other things. Zombies also have poor memory due to the lack of interaction and cognitive control.
