The Break In: Boyfriends Story

2011-05-26T06:37:00.000-07:00

1. Which answer did you pick first? Why?

the answer i would of picked would be C, because A would be wrong to break into her page and check her messages
and B to hire a private detective would be dumb.

2. Can you think of other things that people do online that they wouldn’t normally do in person? Give examples.

what some people do online that they wouldn't do in person is cyberbullying.

3. How important is your privacy online? Do you care if your friends know your passwords? If you have one, do you let anyone view your Facebook pages? Explain.

my privacy is important online because i don't want random people to look t my page. i do care if my friends know my password because they can break into your account and write stuff.

Ayiti: The Cost Of Life

2011-05-05T06:31:00.000-07:00

1) How is Ayiti different from 3rd World Farmer? How is it the same?

Ayiti and 3rd world farmer are different because 3rd world farmer is about farming and Ayiti is about going to school and getting a job. Ayiti and 3rd world farmer are similar because both of the game are about living a hard life.

2) What strategies did you use? For example, did you combine work and school, or did you send everyone to work? Which worked? Which did not?

The strategy i used for Ayiti was i would make everyone work except one person and make him/her go to school so later on he/her get a better job and then make one other person go to school and when they would get sick i would send them to the hospital.

3) Why would parents choose to devote so much effort to sending their children to school? What obstacles did you face in trying to keep them in school?

I think the reason parents choose to devote and put so much effort to sending their children to school is because so they can get their education and later on in life they will be able to find a job and not be poor. when i would send a person to school sometime they would come back with the same amount of education and i just wasted money for supplies.

2011-03-31T06:47:00.000-07:00

my strategy in the game was to plant things and to have some money left over.

playing this game showed how bad immigrants detentions are and how bad people suffer inside a immigrant detention.

2010-10-21T06:41:00.000-07:00

1. How is the life of sweatshop workers in L.A. the same as those in Indonesia? How is it different?

the life of sweatshop workers in L.A are the same in indonesia is that they don't even get paid minimum wage they work for like 8 hours and only get paid like $25. the way that sweatshops in L.A are different from the ones in indonesia is that in sweatshops in L.A have immigrants working for the and in Indonesia they have kids working for them.

2. Why is it that poor immigrants (newcomers) end up working at sweatshops? Why don’t they work as lawyers or doctors or at Mcdonalds?

the reason that poor immigrants work at sweatshops is because most of them don't have working papers.

3. Predict what’s going to happen by the end of this movie

what i think that is going to happen at the end of the movie is that the immigrants are going to get their working papers and get a good job.

nike workers in indonesia make about a $1.25 each day.

life is difficult for indonesian nike workers at home because the work a lot and bearly make any money so its hard for them to buy things.

3. Why won’t Nike talk to Jim or Leslie or let them visit the shoe factory?

i think the reason that nike dose not want them to visit because they don't want people to know the way they work and make the children work for them.

water bottles

2010-04-09T09:48:00.000-07:00

1)I think tap water is better cleaner and tasteir than bottled water because bottled water is more dirty because they melt the plastic and they don't clean it

2)the way they make bottles for bottled water is in a factory that makes bottles

3)by putting water in your own bottle that you clean

War Simulations

2010-03-23T08:15:00.001-07:00

Three advantages that people that have war simulations in war are

1) they get extra practice and more excpierence
2) they work on more that they are bad at
3) they get to excpierence things before it happens

what i think this technology will look in 10 years

i think it might look more holographic with more realistic people and have it 3d

Gaming Addiction

2010-03-22T08:45:00.000-07:00

I think the reason that most people get addicted to gaming is because they have nothing to do. I think if they go outside once in a while that they wont be so addicted.

5 ways to tell that your addicted to gaming

1) that you keep on playing non stop
2) all you think about is games
3) when you don't go to sleep just play games
4) when you don't eat just to play games
5) when you don't go outside anymore just to play games

gaming adiction

2010-03-01T08:50:00.000-08:00

I think the reason cause kids become adictied to gaming is because their parents let them be on their consel so much. i think parents should have a time that their children stop using the games. parents should let their kids go out side more so the dont get adicted.

2009-12-22T08:08:00.000-08:00

Alien: Hello Earthling. Thank you for conversing with me.

me: your welcome

Alien: May I ask you a few questions?

You: Ofcourse!

Alien: I have never been to earth before, can you tell me a little bit about it? What are some beautiful and interesting places I should visit?

me: it's a nice place except for global warming

me: What is your planet like?

Alien: very nice and lovely

Alien: You humans seem like you’re very angry with eachother. I watched people walk down the street and most people didn’t even look at eachother! Why is that?

me: because we don't know each other

me: What’s it like on your planet when you walk around?

Alien: we all greet one another

Alien: Why does your home country go to war with other countries?

You: because things happen

Alien: It seems to me that what you call “marshmallows” are the best thing to eat on your planet. Why do you not eat these every day?

You: because you could get sick

You: What do you eat on your planet?

Alien: capolinogrte

Alien: It seems to me that you do not treat earth very well. I see people throwing their trash on the ground, cutting down forests, and burning dirty coal to make electricity. Why do humans not care about earth? Is anyone doing anything about it?

You: because they don't know what could happen

Water Test's

2009-12-22T05:42:00.000-08:00

I was doing the lead test on the Lower East Side River Water. I thought it was going to have lead in the water. First we opened up the package and put two drops of the water inside a small container then we put a stick in the water to tell us if it has lead or not. We left the container for ten minutes ad took out the sick it was on the one witch ment it didn't have lead.

Planet Earth Exposed

2009-11-06T11:33:00.000-08:00

The video i saw was about the sharks their enviorment is the oceans and sea. The animals in that enviorment were sharks fish's whale and others. The way i think our enviorment is not the same because sharks live under water and we live on land.

2009-03-06T08:39:00.000-08:00

I think our cafetiria food is nasty i think this because you would find hair in our food and two people found a roach in both of their penutbutter and jelly sand witch's.

SUPER SIZE ME 4

2009-02-23T08:56:00.000-08:00

One thing i lerned in super size me 4 was that he way they make mc.donlds chicken nuggets is that they take old chickens with large breast and slice them and make them as the shapes we know.I think that is disgusting i didn't kow they were made like that.

SUPER SIZE ME 3

2009-02-13T08:00:00.000-08:00

My meal at MC.Donald's would give me 2,830 calories and 113 fat
for breakfast,lunch and dinner. To stay healthy i would had went over
630 calories and 28 extra fat than I'm suppose to.I'm in shocked because
i went over and i would have o exercises a lot to burn the calories if i were
to eat it.

SUPER SIZE ME 2

2009-02-03T08:17:00.000-08:00

I think coustermurs shouldnt sue mc.donalds because if they know their food is unhealthy why eat their.
A way mc.donalds drag kids int their food is by those little toy in a happy meal.A children to eat healy
a day they should have 2,000 calories a day.

SUPER SIZE ME

2009-02-03T07:56:00.000-08:00

I usually go to fast food restaurant's twice a week.i sometimes think what I'm eating but not that much.
in the scene of super size me i thin it was strange to have a MC.Donald's in a hospital because sometimes
people go to hospital's because of eating to much of fast food restaurant's at they get to fat which sometimes
hurts people because of problems.the word organic means when the food is fresher than usual. the word vegan
means a person who doesn't eat meat or any dairy things which are things like milk and cheese.

Farm animals

2009-01-06T08:03:00.000-08:00

I think it is horrible how farm animals are treated they shouldn't be treated this they are abused while being in the farm the farm people would make a stick super hot and poke a cow with it and make a mark on them also farm people clip tags on cows ears that keep trak of them.Farm people who do this dont care about anything but themselfs.

what is a reasponcible pet owner

2008-12-16T07:55:00.000-08:00

What i means to be a responsible pet owner would be to feed your pet every day breakfast lunch and diner also when their hungry.Other ways to be a responsible pet owner would also be to give your pet baths and make sure they don't have any ticks or fleas.What i would think of a responsible pet owner would be doing is them playing with their pet and consider their pet as a family as how i do with my cousins dog.

Animal Cruelty

2008-12-08T08:58:00.000-08:00

Animal cruelty is when horrendous people abuse animals also to put them into fights with other animals to bet money on them.Animals shouldn't be treated like this they should be treated like family.It makes me melancholy how people could just use animals for their own selfish needs animals are meant to be like family. What you can do to stop animal cruelty would be to report it to the police or let an adult know of what you have seen.

child labor

2008-10-10T08:13:00.000-07:00

my day is just working picking up things like beans.
it makes me feel bad and like a slave.
i don't do very good in school because i don't go to school that much.
i worry that i don't make enough money to support my family
my parents let me work to make money.
i would change my life by not having child labor.
yes others could help me by taking me out of child labor.

Hurricane Ike

2008-09-26T08:03:00.000-07:00

The damages caused by the winds were window glass being broken. Things being carried.And homes being torn apart.the damages caused by the wind were floods.what people did to stay safe was they had to evacuate.Also what people did to prepare fore the storm was they had to buy flash lights & a bottle of water & food you dont have to heat you.What happend to the people that didn't prepare for the storm was they died or get rescued.
