contained in that source. For each source, give a complete reference (either in MLA or APA format) so
that I can locate the source if I chose to do so, and provide approximately a paragraph description of the
information you intend to use from that source. You may use sources from the internet, books,
publications, movies or tv. Please do not use Wikipedia as a source. Wikipedia is a great jumping off

something interesting in a Wikipedia article, look for the footnote/reference for that information and track
down the original source for the information.
