Lambeosaurus tail

The famous Lambeosaurus crest was hollow and hatchet-shaped for males and round for females. The crest might have served two purposes: it could have been used to communicate with females and as an attractive feature for them during mating season. There are also theories that the crown could have been colored to make it sound more natural. It was more prominent in males than on females and was likely responsible for the ability to communicate with others members of their herd.

What can pop music teach us?

Today's society values material possessions over all else. This is especially true of young people. They spend hours daily looking at screens. They are addicted to video games, movies, and surfing the web. They lose focus of school work because they are constantly distracted by these distractions. This causes them to fail classes.

We live in a world where everyone wants to fit in. That means being popular. Popularity is dependent upon having money, clothes and other possessions. This leads some people to do things that aren't right.

We have become too dependent on technology. Technology has given us access to all kinds of information. Not everything is accurate. False rumors are all over the Internet. These rumors quickly spread because people share them through social media. It's easy just to post something and not verify its authenticity.

People have lost the ability to think critically. They trust everything they read online. They believe what is written in magazines and on television. They stop thinking for their own sake. They instead follow the crowd.

We lose control of our lives when we depend on others to tell we what's going on. Pop culture encourages us to rely on others. This can make us lazy. Although the truth is out there and we often don't find it, it can make us lazy.
