Earth Day 2007

Earth Day was created by John McConnell around March 21st who was surprised by Earth's deterioration. Over 20 million supported him including the government. Today there's more than 175 countries supporting Earth Day. Examples of things that people try to avoid during Earth Day is car pollution, pollution in general, misuse of trash disposal, and anything that would reduce the Earth. What Gaylord Nelson had in mind was that he thought of the Earth as his home, so therefore he thought that trash on Earth is like trash in your house. During Earth Day people try to save the Earth by using different kinds of transportation other than those that use pollution, planting trees, using less energy, etc. Basically people are being conscious about Earth until the next Earth Day. Here's a video on Earth Day, which was created by DarthPi

Family Connections 2

My mom takes care of my brother and cooks most of the time, which makes her part of my family. She also works as a nurse, which helps bring in some money for the family. My father works from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 at South San Francisco City Hall. He brings in most of the income, but he also maintains most of the house. He hardly ever stops working, which is why he leads the family most of the time. My grandmother cooks along with my mother and they make most of the meals. My brother is someone that can't be left alone, so there's at least one family member watching him. My dog, Bantai, live at the back and runs around until midnight. He kills gophers, chases away other dogs, but most of all chases away solicitors. I have an uncle that isn't blood-related, but he's part of the family because he's my father's friend. Eight houses away my other Aunt and Uncle live in their own house. My Aunt is my father's sister who works in a high school in San Francisco. My uncle married my aunt in 2000 and works along the railroad for bart. My Aunt and Uncle are family because we help support each other and go on vacations together most of the time. They also have a male dog that plays around with my dog sometimes and he protects my Uncle and Aunt's house. He's family because he's just like my dog who protects the house, but he gets to enter my Aunt's house. My dog only lives outside because I've never trained him to do his things outside.

Copyright

Copyright save a person's work from being copied from other people. Although, it allows some things to be copied, which makes the work much more useful to a person. There is also creative commons, which scales copyright. Whether it's full or partial copyright. Copyright; however, doesn't protect all work, but when found can allow the owner of the work to sue the person that used their works. Most of the web sites among the web is copyrighted even though some don't have the symbol. Copyright is found among the internet, books, and other such works. Most of the websites I read on helped me understand copyright, which let me get 100% on the internet test.

Internet Statistics

I believe that the internet greatly influences many people, which affects their lives greatly as well. The internet is obviously addicting, but really can help you. Although the fact that the internet connects the people accross the world, it can really destroy you. Basing your life around the internet is really dangerous. Life on the web can really hurt you if you don't know what your doing. I believe that there are only a few people that should be allowed to surround their life with the internet, but then I would be a hypocrite.

Fuzzy Logic

I think Fuzzy Logic is just like AI. The way a computer can work like a human brain is very important to advancing into the next generation. Now we can do more with computers than we used to. The Fuzzy Logic is probably very important to the way a country operates. Without Fuzzy Logic the U.S. might not be able to be as great as it is today.

Family

What's your idea of what a family can be?
They can be people that support you, are close to you, or someone that you love.

Who is in your family circle?
My Mother, Father, Brother, Grandmother, and my dog.

What is your family like?
My family is a group of Filipinos that are serious, hardworking, and successful.

Does your family circle involve a variety of people?
Mostly relatives closeby, but also across the globe.

Different generations?
Well at least three or four.

Explain the following quote:

"Families evolve from a patchwork of possibilities"

People are considered family by the person's aspect of them. Anyone can become family by just the possibility of meeting them. Then the relationship is built upon for them to truly become family.

What I learned during the project

I learned that the interviews of many of the projects were affected by age, gender, influence, etc. I also found that you can't be joking around if it's a serious problem specially when your being recorded. Many of the projects though were mostly on the new game consoles that were released. The projects also were created differently and were of different quality. Each of the projects were well done though, but some are yet to be presented. The variety of the presentations though kept me interested, but the repeated topics were really boring. I also found that most of the people interviewed were usually by students or family members rather than the world. Listening to the problems of life also interested me. I was greatly dissappointed with repeating topics which seemed to be Nintendo Wii vs. Microsoft Xbox 360 vs. Sony PS3.
