HOW TO STOP BULLIES!-Bradley King

Your probably wondering why are these boys wearing pink tank tops. Well it all started after a 9th grade high school boy came to school with a pink shirt on. The new student arrived at his first day of school wearing a pink shirt, and was bullied by some upperclassmen. They called him a homosexual and threaten to beat him up. Well the next day two 12th grade students decided to take a stand against the bullies by using the internet to encourage there fellow classmates to meet before school the next day to pick up a pick up a pink t-shirt the boys purchased. The two boys bought 75 for male students to wear to stand up to the bullies. This article was interesting to me because I am one that has always stood up for kids that got bullied. I think what these two young men did was a sigh of courage and leadership in the school. I recommend this article because I think that more people need to read it and learn to start standing up against bullies. Bullies may think that picking on others is a cool and fun thing to do, but after awhile of picking on someone, they can get hurt physically and emotionally and cause them to hurt themselves or someone else. This was a very well cited article from a news website. I just want to ask and challenge the reader if you will take a stand?

The first website I was brought to was “The Gates of Hell”. It was a really cool collection of pictures. They all dealt with the weather in one way or another and were all really crazy storms, tornados, or just things you don’t see every day. I have never seen anything like this. I think everyone should see this page because the pictures were amazing. None of the pictures are cited on the page and after going through all the pictures I was wondering how the people got a chance to take those pictures. I would love to research the way to take the pictures and who takes the jobs to go out in danger just to take them.

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2BtOg9/n2.nabble.com/These-are-Some-Wicked-Nuns-td3520657.html/

The second website that came up was “These are Some Wicked Nuns ;)”. It was a funny short story. I think if anyone wants to get a quick laugh they should defiantly go to this page. The writer of this page either did not cite whoever wrote this or wrote it his or herself because there were no citations. I don’t really have any questions after viewing this page except who came up with the joke because it was really funny.

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1NmBAF/www.rethinkingschools.org/just_fun/games/mapgame.html/

The last website I found was “Rethinking Schools”. It was a map of Africa and the Middle East and I had to label all the countries for a word bank I was given. It was very difficult and it took me about twenty minutes. I think everyone should go to this page to test their geographical knowledge. It might surprise some people on how little or much they know. As with the others this page had no citations on it, but I also do not think they were needed considering they could have made the map themselves. My only question for this site is why didn’t I know where all those countries were. It shocked me I barely knew any.

I found out that Americans are very stereotypical its kinda funny but sad in a way. I like this blog because most Americans if not all think we are number one and like to think the world revolves around America . I would recommend this to a classmate because you always need something to laugh at and laughing its good for your health. This article was not cited at all and this isn't good because if you wanted to find more articles like this you wouldn't know where to look or who to give credit to if you used it in a report . Do you think AMERICA is number 1?


http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1NmBAF/www.rethinkingschools.org/just_fun/games/mapgame.html/

This blog helped me to learn the different locations of other countries. I like this blog because you can learn and have fun at the same time. I would show this blog to a class mate if they needed a good way to study the different locations of other countries. There is not a real citation on the page but it does have a link to its original page which has been cited. Would you ever use this to help you study?


http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#6i9ChZ/i121.photobucket.com/albums/o238/KatrinaMarie_photos/Niagrafalls.jpg/

I never knew that Niagara Falls could completely freeze. I have been there man times while living in New York its so awesome and powerful. I would share this with a classmate because its a rare picture and its just a cool fact to know when the Niagara Falls froze over. This picture has no citations at all so we cant tell who posted this or if its a original picture. Who are those people in the picture? Does anyone know?

Human World,Hanse Colani Rotor House, Kitchen Hints-Amy Gooding

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2sI046/home.bitworks.co.nz/trivia/human.htm/

Most of the information on the stumble was new and interesting to me. The Human World stumble was very informative. There are so many things that I didn't know. Some of them happened in the United States while other happened all over the world. It was just very informative to see all of these facts about different human around the world. Some in third world countries that have customs that are natural for them but we may find unethical. I always find it interesting to learn about other cultures and how they live their lives and compare it to ours. I would recommend this site to any classmate that is interested in learning random facts about humans from around the world. Also if a classmate wants to impress their friends or family with fun yet knowledgeable facts then this will be the stumble for them to look at. This stumble site is referenced very well. Most of its facts come from well known and trusted books or from factual board games such as Trivial Pursuit. All of the online references were trusted. None of them were from pages such as Wikipedia. I think that if I had one question about this topic it would be; How long did it take for them to make this list of all these Human World facts? I think that if I did further research about this topics I would choose just a couple of the points and focus on gaining more information about those specific points.


hanse_colani_rotor_house_oc.jpg http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2FAJZ0/mocoloco.com/archives/000694.php/

This stumble was interesting to me because I have never heard of this type of house. I have actually never seen a house like this before. It is also interesting to see a house like this and it still looks nice on the outside but the inside does look like it could get cramped. I am impressed with this house because it is able to keep everything in a cylindrical fashion and still look homey. I think that if I was someone buying a house like this I would want some more color and less white on the inside of the house. But that's just my personal taste. I would recommend this page to a classmate so they could see the different styles and types of houses that are starting to be built around the world. Also I think it would be interesting to see what other classmates thought about houses like this and what they would change if one of these houses were theirs. I think that classmates would enjoy this stumble since the house itself is unique and is not what we see everyday. As far as I could tell this page was cited very well. Most of the citing is from other design companies and other fashion designers . So the people that created this stumble new what they were talking about and had a good eye for fashion. I would ask the question of "How did they come up with the design of a house like this?" I would be very interested to know how. If I wanted to do more research I would try and contact the company or find more articles about this type of house.

I found this stumble last. I don't know about everyone else, but I love to cook and I especially love to eat. I mean who doesn't?! This kitchen hints stumble was very enlightening to me. I had no idea that so many people had their own secrets on how to cook with greater ease. I enjoyed this stumble a lot. I learned a lot of knew tricks of the trade to be able to cook better and to know when certain things are finished such as eggs and how to bring out the flavors of certain foods using only salt and sugar. It was very enlightening. I would recommend this stumble to any classmate who likes to cook or wants to learn. This will help then learn simple ways to bring out the flavors of foods and new ways to check food and to reuse food and drinks. It will also help them to learn new ways to keep thing fresh and good to eat. This stumble actually had no citation at all. I think that it is reliable enough to be able to try some of the hints it gives you. A question about the topic would be, "How long did it take you to complete the list of kitchen hints?" I think to continue my research I would actually have to try some of the kitchen hints myself and see if they work.


Stumble Upon week 1 - Courtney Sherrill

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1cmQrg/www.informationliberation.com/?id=23703/
I stumbled upon this article and thought it was very interesting how two guys could make a point to the bullies about how wearing pink does not make you a homosexual. Its really good that there are those few who really care and stand up for the younger ones and help them in any way. The one question i wondered about is why do kids have to be so mean to one another. what has the world come to for this to all happen and someone be threatened to be beat up for wearing pink. These two boys did a great job and looks like they got the point across!

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#4wM1UR/www.snackaday.com/2007/12/24/can-you-find-optical-illusions-nice-pictures//
The second thing that I stumbled upon was this really cool website that had all these pictures that were optical illusions. It was really neat to look at them and see one thing and then another. The thing i want to know is how do they get the picture to look like that and for you to see more than one thing its very cool. I wished i were talented enough to do this. I really liked this one alot it was neat to look at.

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1wwz3v/ljplus.ru/img4/e/x/extel3/080421_006.jpg/
The last thing I stumbled was a picture of this cute little dog asleep in a infant car seat fastened in. It is so adorrable and i love it i thought i was amzing how some people treat their animals like their kids. I only wonder how far people go and what all they do for and with their pets sometimes they go to far and get a little crazy but this picture is so precious.

I stumble upon this page, and started thinking about how much automobiles have changed over the many years. I think it's very interesting how many different types of car there is, such as smart car, hybrid cars and many more. I would recommend this to my classmates, because it's very cool site to look at. I think the page is cited good. A question I would have is how do they come up with the design of the car and the name of them as well.










I stumble upon this, and thought it was so cool what this guy Jeff Scanlan has done. I would of never thought of doing something as weird and crazy like that. This is very interesting because he took the time out to try to figure how to insert a deck of card and many other things into small glass bottle. I would recommend this to my classmates because you don't usually see this kind of magic. The pages was well cited to me. A question I would ask, and so would everyone else is how in the world did he get those items in the glass bottle.



I stumble upon this pages, and thought it was amazing how track and field has changed over the years. I would recommend this to my classmates because it's very interesting to see how the world records have changed over the many years. I think the page was cited pretty good. A question I would have is why do the runner enjoy running the long distance races.








stumble upon week 1

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1AjKC6.www.furiae.com/popup.php?text=eyetutorial/

My first article I found interesting on stumble upon was a tutorial about how to paint an eye. It first caught my interest because I had taken a drawing class an learned how to draw an eye, so I wanted to know if it was any different to paint one. There are tricks to make an eye look realistic. For example a white circle in the pupil will make the eye look glossy for a more realistic approach.


http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#412zAp/img161.imageshack.us/img161/1421/goodtoseeyou7rl.jpg/

This picture is absolutely adorable! It makes me wonder how a wild carnivore can hug a human without attacking or seriously injuring him. It is like a miracle because it is the animals instinct to hunt and kill. Instead the tiger greets the man with a warm hug like an old friend. I believe animals, even those who seem like ferocious beasts, can have and control emotion just as humans can.

http://stumbleupon.com/s/#1qdrTd/refspace.com/quotes/s:0/

This stumble is very interesting because no matter who you are you will find at least one quote on this page you will agree with. I love quotes such as these by famous people because it shows that there is someone out there who understands you. Some of these quotes are also very inspiring. My favorite quote that I had read off this site was "You have enemies? Good. That means you have stood up for something, sometime in your life".

Stumbleupon Kwame Johnson

http://www.thetransitionalmale.com/65style

The first article I stumbled upon a interesting article entitle, "65 Things A Man Should Know About Style." I found this piece pretty cool because the tips included are pretty helpful. The tips are more like the Do's and Dont's of dressing for men. There are tips that are helpful like #2, "The shirt placket, the belt buckle, and the trouser fly should all line up." Then there are some tips that are irrelevant like #20, "By the way, this blue-shirt craze is getting really tiresome." Overall the article is decent. I personally would use the helpful tips much less recommend them to another. The only question that comes to mind might be Who wrote this? because the list has no author.



The next thing i stumbled upon was art by 2 French artists, Ivan Duval and Jean Sebastien Ides, who do cool art on one dollar bills. What cool about it is that they take the picture of George Washington and turn him in to different characters such as Batman, Ronald McDonald, even Jesus. These would be cool for artist that think outside the box and like to be abstract. The one thing I thought about was isn't this illegal? Something like defamation of federal property? Either way its still cool!!!!!! For more "dollar" art, click the pic above

The last stumble upon was a site that helps find rhyming words. Have you ever been writing a poem for class or etc. and you want it to rhyme but you cant find a word that has nothing to rhyme with it? Well here is a site that with a click of the mouse you find a word that rhymes wit it. I would find this helpful for poets or maybe even rappers who are trying to rhyme but its not comming out

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1JCQOj/www.animaltalk.us/for/Animals/best-friends-suryia-the-orangutan-and-roscoe-the-blue-tick-hound//topic:Animals

I find this interesting because Its crazy how animals can take care of each other. The dog is basically the orangutans pet which is funny. This is new to me because I have never seen something like this. I would recommend classmates look at this because it is something very interesting that one doesn't see everyday. However, the source isn't cited very well. I would look into this topic more by using google to see if I could find any other animals taking care of each other.

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#31wlnq/www.telegraph.co.uk/news/picturegalleries/picturesoftheday/5290053/Pictures-of-the-day-7-May-2009.html?image=1/topic:Animals

I find this interesting because basically because there is glass in between the child and tiger, which by looking at the picture one couldn't tell. This is new to me because unbelievably the tiger isn't trying to attack the little girl. I would recommend My classmates look at this because it is in a sense unbelievable. The picture is actually cited great. I would look into this topic more by actually reading the article that the picture was originally with.

I find this interesting because it appears that the baby penguin is actually examining footprints in the mud. This is new to me because penguins arent supposed to be that smart actually. I would reccomend my classmates look at this because it is very interesting. This picture is cited well. I would look into this topic more by reading the magazine that this picture appeared in.

I thought the art in this stumble was very interesting because it was very unique and colorful.
I would recommend this stumble to people because I have never seen art like this before and it is very intriguing. One person posted the pics but it doesn't show who took each one. My question is, How can someone make a picture like that?

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2bugNi/tiltedtwister.com/sudokusolver.html/topic:Robotics
I think this post is interesting because the robot can solve sudoku all by itself. I would recommend this post to someone because it shows how well technology has come along. The post is not sited it just tells the website it is from. My question is, How do u make a robot like that?

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#6DvjC9/cuteoverload.com/2009/08/12/obviously-created-by-japanese-scientists//topic:Animals
I think this post is interesting because the creatures in this post were created in a lab in japan.
I would recommend this post to someone because it is very interesting to learn about new creatures. The post only tells when it was posted and the title of the post. My question for the post is, How do you make one of the creatures?

Lets Be Friends

In my favorite stumble i came acrosse a site that didn't really talk about but showed and presented a really good point about why we all can't just get along or be friends. it had a bunch of pictures of animals that 9 times out of 10 weren't going to be hanging out and friendly to each other.


Don't like reading? Read on...

another stumble that i liked was mainly cause i dont like to read but what they did was take books and jus make things out of them like chairs random things. and they would make three D pictures comeing out of the book almost like a pop up book but not at all.

Colors

My last stumble was a fun little coloring type of page where you just draged the mouse over the page and the different colors went off and made a cool trail that would fade away but was fun.

"LSD in Baseball" By Grayson Avery

There are people that today look up to baseball players, just as they did generations before us. People go through life trying to base themselves off of the greatest and the best. At the sametime these heros that people are looking up to know they have to keep getting better and doing the right things, but what happens to a person when all the pressure catches up to them. They have to find some relief. These are the types of situations that a hero doesn't want there followers to hear about, but they feel they must do it. Dock Ellis was an outstanding pitcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates, back in the 70's. He was always a up and down pitcher until the day he pitched his " No Hitter". Now a no hitter coming from a pitcher who was always a questionable brought up some red flags, but no one really thought to much about it. 10 years later he comes out and says that he pitched that game under the influence of LSD and that he doesn't remember most of the game. I wonder if i should give this guy props for being able to do that, or if i should shun him because he let down a lot of people. Now i am not saying that doing drugs is a good excuse for heros to let go for awhile, but what i am saying is that people are pushing players and heros to using them. Sure sports are fun and sure she can sing but if you let people have thier space then they will be able to run their lives without having to go to something unlawful for help.

I stumbled across this map of an a cats brain and found it interesting, because it looked rather strange and in a way appealing. It was interesting because it explained what a typical cat thinks of on a day to day to basis. I would recommend this diagram because it is extremely educational. One question I have is how do people know what cats have on there mind through out the day? 


http://www.stumbleupon.com/toolbar/#1rJ6hC/lc.totfarm.com/pics/pic_69440.jpg/


 I stumbled across this picture and found it very interesting. This is a picture of a squirrel sitting on a fence. This photo has been photo shopped, I found it interesting because it is so unrealistic and it shows how technology has developed over many years to be able to make this photo possible. One question I have about this topic is if technology is evolving and changing so fast to be able to make this picture possible, what is it going to be like in five years? 



http://www.stumbleupon.com/toolbar/#1wvFh9/www.woostercollective.com/humansa.jpg/


I stumbled across this article about homo sapiens and found it very interesting. It talks about the population and life span of homo sapiens along with the distribution of the human homo sapiens. The fact that interested me the most was the increasing population of human homo sapiens were its quoted an increase of 200,000 people a day. I would recommended this to a class mate or anyone who is interested in learning about human homo sapiens. One question I have is if the population is increasing as fast as it is why was there controversy about the species being extinct?

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2009/08/photogalleries/worms-glowing-bombs-green-pictures/index.html
I stumbled upon this article and found it very interesting. This annelid is one of five that have recently been discovered with green bombs. Green bombs (shown by purple arrow)are a glowing matter dropped off the annelid in an effort to throw off there predators. I would recommend a classmate to view this page to learn more about annelids and the new discoveries that are obtained daily by marine biologist. A question about this topic I have is, how do biologist come about a species as unique as this?


http://www.dosenation.com/listing.php?smlid=6505
The second article I found was about the marijuana use associated with significantly reduced risk of head and neck cancers. This is interesting because marijuana is highly looked at, as a horrible drug and for it to have anti-cancerous properties is amazing. It has been said that the US government has known about the anti-cancerous effects of marijuana for about 35 years now and are finally doing something about it. I would recommend a classmate to view this page to show that even though marijuana is considered a drug it can also be helpful in medicine. The obvious question I have is that if the government has known about this for 35 years and it can potentially help save lives why haven’t they done anything about it till now.

http://www.egopimp.com/index.php?showimage=29
this picture was taken roughly at about midnight. Not many people realize that with today’s technology put together with nature amazing things can be achieved like this photo. This photo was taken with a camera that was exposed for about 300 seconds, and with the moonlight and movement in the clouds it has been given the daytime look. I would mostly recommend this to a classmate that was interested in photography and nature, because when the two are put together astonishing things can be created. A question I have is why? Why would someone even fathom creating this type of photo?

Love is simple.


This really got me. It is self explanatory if you read it. Something as simple as a hug and telling some one one you love them can change their mood. My suggestion to all is if some one you care about is feeling blue, just hug them and tell them that you love them. This could also be taken deeper and show that material things can not make a person happy. I recommend this site because it is something to brighten your day. I think it is cited decently. My question is who or what was the inspiration for this story.

# 1 stumble by: Luis Amurrio

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#7LEZxV/www.philintheblanks.com/comics/manenough.html/

i found this article interesting because the type of humor was new to me as well as the animation. I would recommend this article to my fellow classmates if they like to have a good laugh at how bad people draw cartoons and as well as to how stupid it is. Well it was only cited with the authors name at the top with the title but other than that i guess it was fine. Do u think the cartoon had a purpose?

http://www.stumbleupon.com/toolbar/#6i9ChZ/i121.photobucket.com/albums/o238/KatrinaMarie_photos/Niagrafalls.jpg/

This article was interesting because i never thought that this natural beauty would ever be still but it was and it blew my mind. I insist everyone see this photo cause it will change the way you look at life and how something impossible can be possible. This picture was not cited at all so i guess it was poorly cited and they should get banned for it! Ounce you saw this natural mystery do you think this really happened?

http://www.stumbleupon.com/toolbar/#1JuWKz/wall.alphacoders.com/images/Comics/Comics-Other-12850.jpg/


This animation was very interesting cause it reminded me of a very funny video of another cartoon dominating other cartoons and i got to represent my home boy BATMAN! This picture i kinda recommend cause it is not that funny but if your bored and have time than got for it. Ounce again this picture is not cited which is very bad cause it will not let me find more pictures to the rest of the story. Isn't batman number one hero ever to be created?

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1TTQbW/letsbefriends.blogspot.com//topic:Animals;
Friends? Some people and even animals, were taught who they could and couldn't talk to. Here on this website and just by looking at this picture that all that can change. Mouse and birds are enemies, but here they are friends. This shows that just because that you were bought up on being enemies with a person or even a animal that if you follow your heart it will tell you the right thing to do.I thought this was interesting because humans are so afraid to be friends with people they were taught hate where animals these animals don't care. if animals can be so friendly with their enemies then why cant humans.
I never really been a big fan of art or drawing because im not good at either. while stumbling I ran across this piece of art work and it caught my attention. It shows you how to draw a women from the inside out and I thought that was the neatest thing. It really makes you apprciate the artist that took their time to make something so simple look so beautiful. It shows you that there is more to art then just paint and a paintbrush. this shows you a whole different side.
I abosolutly love baking and meaning differnt types of desserts. On this page you will find the top recipes fot the month of August.I thought this would be a good site because everyone loves dessert and most of everyone can bake. Then I thought why would you go to a store when u good just make them yourself and enjoy and apprecaite your dessert so much more, and plus it might be a whole lot cheaper that way.

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#32KZKJ/www.offbeatearth.com/dont-like-reading-other-uses-for-books//

I found these pictures of these different items made from books to be a pretty amazing sight. I know that I have a lot of books just sitting around in my garage and I never would have thought to turn them into a chair that people could use. i would recommend this article to a classmate because it is creative and will put a smile on anyone face. The sources are cited pretty well for the most part on this page they are there. I wonder what would make someone sit down and want to spend all that time to put these crazy pieces of art together in the first place?


http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2ZvmZd/www.dirtycarart.com/gallery/index.htm/

I was just absolutly amazed at these pictures, of all these impartant people and works of art. That someone thought of doing art on the back of a dirty car, even though that when it rains their art piece would be washed away. I think that any of my classmates would enjoy looking at these pictures. I also think that it is very creative and inovative to do something like. The sources are cited clear and to the point on this website. There is no problem finding them at all. I do not understand what would make people want to do this kind of art, there are a lot of things that could wreck an art piece.

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#7zxNqE/goox.net/joost/got/cats//topic:Cats

This website about the cats is so funny I could hardly contain myself. Some of the pictures are funny while others are just plain cute. So there is a little something for everyone to enjoy, that is why I would recommend this website to many of my classmates. I feel that many of them would find this website to humorous, and would enjoy looking at the pictures as much as I did. The sites on this website are not a clear and easy to locate as some of the other ones. I would like to know who came up with this idea i the first place?

First Stumble - Andrew Wolford



http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#7jLjJV/www.webdesignerdepot.com/2009/06/40-examples-of-incredible-photo-manipulation//

I picked this page to be my first link in this blog because the photo manipulation is very well done but also somewhat abstract. I would recommend this to anyone that is interested in photography or graphic design, since these photos were done by very experienced people. I didn't notice any cited authors on the page. I would look into this topic more if I had photoshop to actually be able to make an attempt at this.

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#9XwQ3F/www.ductape.net/~spy007/deepthoughts.html/


This page was just entertaining to me with the quotes that were on it, most were somewhat entertaining and others were just not very well done. If anyone is in need of a chuckle at some point I'd recommend this site for that purpose. Again no noticed cites for any of these quotes. Not really sure how I would research more on this since they are all ideas on this page.

This page was helpful to me since I'm a new Linux user so I thought since this page had the most useful information in one spot that I'd post it for myself and anyone else looking into Linux or a new linux user. This page had alot of useful information on Linux so it is good to recommend to anyone who needs it. This page appears to be put together by a user called Bruno. My question about this topic is will I be able to put this to use successfully.

stumble #1 - Emily Jones

The first web page that I came across while stumbling was http://www.breathingearth.net/. It is a really interesting website that shows a map of the world and allows you to scroll your mouse over most countries in the world and it displays the current population of the country, the death rate and the birth rate. For example, The United States had a population of 305,913,313 and a death every 12.6 seconds and a person born each 7.3 seconds. The site also shows the current world population and also how many people have been born or died since you have been viewing the web page. I recommend this site because it is really neat to see the stats on each country and exactly how many people have been born and died. The sources for the site our pretty well cited and i do not have any questions about the site it just begins to make you wonder about the population in the world.

The second web page I stumbled is a picture from National Geographic by Jim Reed at http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/wallpaper/img/2009/06/june09wallpaper-1_1280.jpg
It shows a picture of a small dirt road in the middle of an old field that looks like it was used for growing crops. There is a red SUV in the middle of the road and in the middle of the screen is a large sand storm tornado amongst white clouds with a storm in the background. It is really interesting because it is clearly visible that it is a stand storm. I recommend this picture because it is appealing and very quick to understand what is going on and what it would be like to live in the Midwest where storms like this are likely. The source is sited as National Geographic, and that is all.

The third web page i stumbled upon is called I Do Dog Tricks http://www.idodogtricks.com/index_flash.html The page pops up with a picture of a small Yorkshire Terrier dog that has a box that allows you to write in a command for the dog to perform. It only does common dog tricks however; tricks like bark, roll over, play dead, jump, dance. I recommend this site because it was interesting to fin new tricks that dog would complete on command, it was like have your own virtual dog without having to spend the hours training your dog. The sources are not very visible in this website but does have links to how to protect your pets which is what is being advertised.

I stumbled across this article talking about David Shepherd and Travis Price, two boys trying to make a difference over bullying. This article came interesting, I've read stories over the years about how people are getting bullied at school and the outcome is never good. To read this story and know that these two young men took it upon themselves to help stop a bad outcome is awesome! I recommend my classmates to read this article to get the word out there about bullying. This article posted a few sources about similar stories. I would like to know how we can make bullying stop.


























I stumbled across this article and found it interesting. You read this article to find out that a man that lost his sight while at work finally gets the chance to get his sight back. It became interesting to me to find that after over a decade a guy got a chance to regain his eye sight. I think my classmates will find this interesting but only if they like stories with a good ending. This article only has one source. I wonder if this will take medicine to a new level?























I came across this article saying that depending on the music or genre you listen determines your score on the SAT's. I found this interesting because like all of us we all had to take the SAT's or ACT's. To find out that music had somthing to do with what I scored it made me want ot read further. I would think my classmates would find this interesting because this could be an excuse for why you scored what you did. There were no other sources for me to follow to actually see if this could be possible. I wonder could music really put you in a category?
