Staph Infections

Across the country, the staph infection has been killing many people.  There have been many deaths over the past couple of weeks and the infection is still out there.  And the worst part is that the infection is still out there and there is no cure for it.  The only thing that you can only do to save yourself is to cover up open wounds, wash your hands constantly, and not to pass around germs.  I think that this is a big problem and if we don’t find a way to stop the infection it could be the end of the world as we know it.

Online Predator: Part 1, Homework

1.  That they really have a good way of catching online predators and if they keep up with the good work, they should catch more and more each day.

2.  Not before yesterday.

3.  Yes, creepy, weird, and seem nervous.

4.  No because most of the online predators they catch are older, in their 40’s or older.

5.  No, because they chose to do this and they are getting the correct punishment for the crime.

6.  They got all nervous and tried to deny everything they said and pleaded for forgiveness.

7.  No, not all the time but hopefully we have enough sense to stay away from those people.

8.  We should keep up with what Dateline is doing, it seems to be working.

9.  No because they are catching online predators and helping the law with things that they don’t have time to do.

10.  I think that dateline has covered everything and will keep doing a great job at catching these people and giving them the right punishment that they deserve.

11.  I have learned how dangerous it is and that we have to look out for these online predators and to be more careful on the internet and on myspace, facebook, and in chat rooms.

Homework: The Overuse of Instant Messenger and Texting

1. No because I think that I can go from my phone and abbreviating to going to typing a paper. It’s not problem for me.

2. You can either abbreviate words or type as fast as possible.

3. No not at all because I think it sounds pretty dumb to speak as you would type online.

4. Sometimes my writing is similar but very rarely the same. Not really.

5. Well when you are texting and instant messaging you can always type out the full words and not abbreviate everything.

6.  www.acronymfinder.com

7.  I saw tons of words and other things.  They had the actual meaning  to the abbreviation and words that were totally wrong.

8.  They said they had no meaning for the abbreviation.

9.  That it’s a big problem when we use them and should use full words.

10.  They talk, write, and say things like how they type on the computer.

The Overuse of Instant Messenger and Texting

1. In a way it is and in a way it isn’t. Its easier to abbreviate words but we tend to use these words in important papers and other things in life.

2. The pro’s are that you don’t have to always constantly call people to get in touch with them. It’s a lot easier to just send them a text or an IM and save yourself work. The con’s are that we abbreviate everywhere and sometimes that’s not a good thing.

3. Everyone would have to call everyone else and spend minutes and time wasted on a small conversation, when you can now just send a message filled with words and pick it up and read it whenever you get around to it.

Online Predators Part 1

1.  I look to see if they are funny, nice, cool, fun to hang out with and not annoying.

2.  40 or older

3.  I think they look creepy, hairy and have no lives.

4.  Sometimes, not recently though.

5.  Yes, but I know most of the friends I have.

Torre rejects offer from Yankees

Joe Torre was offered 5 million dollars for next year but he rejected it.  Personally i think it was a stupid choice because he has a great history with the Yankees and every yankee seems to really love him.  Plus, now that he’s gone, the future of Alex Rodriguez, Jorge Posada, and Mariano Rivera is undecided.  I think it’ll be hard to find another great manager like him.  However, they had a point about the Yankees not winning in 7 years and haven’t made it since 2003.  They’re 26 time world championships and haven’t won since 2000.  Who knows who the next Yankee manager will be, only time will tell.

What are your interests?

My interests are movies, music, video games, girls, bares, sports, especially basketball, and just having fun in general. I have a lot of interests but I also hate a lot of things.

What was your happiest moment?

The happiest moment I ever had was the time I met Jermaine O’Neal.  It was at a Nets game and I went to the sidelines and he was signing autographs and he started talking to me.  It was only 5 minutes but it was crazy and I was amazed that I met an NBA player and I’ll never forget that I did.

Who are the three most important people in your life? Why?

The first two people that are most important in my life are my mom and dad.  They do so much for me and i don’t know where I’d be without either of them.  I can’t chose which one is more important because i love them both and they do the same for me whenever it comes to me needing help.  The third person is probably my brother he is a big part of my life and he’s there when i need him and sometimes even when I don’t.  He can sometimes be my inspiration or just a pain in general.  However, without any of these three people, I don’t  know where i would be in life.

If you were a super hero, what powers would you have and what would be your name.

I would definitely want to be able to melt people with heat vision and also turn people into stone when they looked at me. I would want an all black suit and have a sidekick named Narnz and my name would be Captain Beixz.
