Global Warming

Well after reading this article, I found out some new things that I did not know before like how it helps the economic and, as well as, financially. also it is said to stay positive up to 2080.
A major positive influence is that [Prof Tol calculated that climate change would be beneficial up to 2.2˚C of warming from 2009 } in other words this means 3 degrees Celsius from other lvels, since global warming from the last  150 years.
Another specific reason is [It will still be 1.2 per cent around 2050 and will not turn negative until around 2080].
Another specific reason is that it [
fewer winter deaths; lower energy costs; better agricultural yields; probably fewer droughts; maybe richer biodiversity]. Which we can all say is a very good and big deal. 
This is a major deal that most people do not talk about nor do they particularly care to be aligned with it,  Well I think that this is a big deal they could be decreased , as well as, deleted from the world with the right process of doing things, just think of all the changes that could be seen if everyone took global warming as serious as they should be.
[Global warming has so far cut heating bills more than it has raised cooling bills. If it resumes after its current 17-year hiatus, and if the energy efficiency of our homes improves, then at some point the cost of cooling probably will exceed the cost of heating — probably from about 2035, Prof Tol estimates}. 
In conclusion, I have told you about the specifics of global warming and the hidden benefits of this topic that is sometime not shown with other things, that effect the environment.

Poop Pills

My first thought about this article when I saw it, was that I thought it was so gross and just plain weird.
The thought of poop actually being able to cure highly infectious diseases makes life seem somewhat weird, but it makes me actually second guess what kind of cures are actually out ther.
Maybe taking this pills work for highly killing diseases but I do not know if I would take them. If I didn't know that they were poop pills and I took them and than my sickness was gone than maybe I wouldn't have my doubts.
My final thought about them doing the research for these pills that Technology is far more advanced or people are just crazy enough to look into it.
 Other researchers are trying to find which bacteria most help fight off C-diff. Those might be grown in a lab dish and given to patients rather than the whole spectrum of bacteria in stool".
This statement actually makes me interested to learn more about the process of them actually soing the research about using poop pills.

Article on SAT process

Are teachers in this world tired of their jobs or are they making the time limits to short of a limit?
I do not think it is the teachers fault, I just do not understand why if people need extra time that they are not able to give it to them, I do not see what the big deal about giving extra time to the students that need it, they want students to do there best,correct well if they actually want the very best out of someone, they need to give them the time to do that.
I think the way the judges should grade the writing articles are by the content of the way students answer them but also they should not count off for the writing articles that they may not finish, because of the short limit time that they are receiving.
I also think the time limit of 25 mins is crazy, because they always want their students to do their very best,well maybe they need more time than that to write the best article possible, with the topic they are given and also they should be able to relax and actually think about the things they want to say and how they want to say it, instead of rushing into writing things.
The part of this article that I agree with and also like is “College professors, according to Gere, expect their students to be able to demonstrate evidence-based argument in their writing. This involves reading and synthesizing materials that offer multiple perspectives, and writing something that shows students are able to navigate through conflicting positions to come up with a nuanced argument. For those trained in the five-paragraph,
non-fact-based writing style that is rewarded on the SAT, shifting gears can be extremely
challenging. “The SAT does [students] no favors,” Gere says, “because it gives them a diminished view of what writing is by treating it as something that can be done once, quickly, and that it doesn’t require any basis in fact.”
I do not believe that I am ready to take the SAT writing part, because I need to work on my sentence structure, my grammar skills and also the way I want to respond to the topic at hand.
I also should work on timing myself when I am writing about a specific topic that needs some thinking skills
In Conclusion, I think reading this article was somewhat an eye-opener to both maybe students and teachers, so now maybe they will create a new testing method and also testing time limit.

Current event






  • A company called Massimo has made a new gagget for people with medicial conditions that they need to keep able to track there blood oxygen levels that works with conjunctions with Iphone,Ipad,and Ipod touch called the isp02,but it requires a 30-pm connector

  •  A company has saw that people many people have stuggled with getting their body to to extract oxygen from the air everyone else breathes so they made a cool new tool where they are able to extract there oxygen blood from there Iphones,Ipads, and Ipod touchs.

curent event




  • My topic is about a new virtual way to do things onine almost like skype but something even better than you would expect.

  • This vdieo company powers google hangouts and nintendo's Wii u


  • //readwrite.com

  •  There is a new video app coming out called the vidyo and it is teaming up with nintendo to make a newer version of what many people already use. It is sorta like skype but it is more virtual in a way.You can talk to grandma or talk to old frineds that may have moved away and you are not able to see them anymore. It is a good tool to use and many doctors use it for there patients in the hopstial when they are not able to go see them face to face, 


  • I think this is pretty cool to have and it seems like it is easy enoug to figure out. It also makes it easier for people to use if your family is away somewhere like the military.

        It makes me want to try it out with other family members that I do not live clsoe to anymore and it saeems fun to me and looks cool 

It will become another new technology tool that many people will use and also many people already have it or may have used it and they didnt know that they have.

Weekly blog spot

This week we learned about how many people get messed over with credit cards so the terms we used.are scams-an attempt to trick someone usually with the intention of stealing personal information andor,money,Indentify theft-a type of crime or which your private iinformation is stolen and used for criminal activity,volerable-for a position that makes it easier for you to be harmed or attacked,Phishing-when people send photos,emails,pop-up messages social network messages and rhings like that in order to teach you into givng on your password and finanial information. 

Our digital literancy was how many people lose there indentity because of stupid people thinking they can get away with it by taking there social number,name, age,banks account number and many other things. That messes up a lot of people lives and it makes them have to start all over again on there life's brand new.

I think learning about this new information is good because I can be aware of things now before like when I am online I will be more careful when I see things pop up now so when I do have a job and in the future have credit cards I will make sure to be extra careful.  


.This makes me upset because thngs like this happen to my mom when she first got a credit card and a week later someone stole her money. This makes me aware of things I buy and when i do to the store and people need my bank number and things like that.

Weekly blog post

Well learning new vocabulary this week was interesting because of the words we actually learned about we already knew but,we just have a different meaning for them.Track means when companies collect information about you based on your online behavior or actions,Target is when companies get content off your profile based on the information you look up,Demographic is common categories of a population such as gender,race and or eye color,and finally cookies means data files that companies keep folders of what you  use. 

We used a new tool called Mixbook this tool is like a auto book on the internet you can put photo's,things about life on it and make a graphic book about anything from family reuions to wedding's.
 http://www.mixbook.com/home 

A positive thing about using Mixbook is that you can make a graphic book online about anything with family the negatitive part about this it is very diffcult to use,everytime you add pictures you would have to save all of them or keep exiting out and logging into it again. overall it is a good thing to use if you want to be creative with things.You just have to be tech smart.  

Our digitlal literancy this week was how to act online when pop-up's and spam comes up,also how to act when giving personal information away even to something that is good. When you are online and all of a sudden things pop up about what you may be trying to search that is companies trying to get your attention and your personal information. 

Ways to avoid being scammed online and get your personal information taken is to watch scam's and be very careful when doing things online,also watch when you are buying things online.Keep your password private and do not give it to anyone not even your bestfriends. 

This effect me personality because I will be more careful about giving my things away like email and other important things. I will also watch out for pop-ups instead of just clicking random things.

This week has been good and we finally have got into our building, also next week will be our first full week and we have spirit week what could be better.
