Luke Perry- Stumble Upon- 09/14

http//:www.home.bitworks.co.nz/trivia/human.htm/

Whilst stumbling I encountered a website with all these useful random facts that I have never heard before, such as “The women of the Tiwi tribe in the South Pacific are married at birth” and also “An American aircraft in Vietnam shot itself down with one of its own missiles.” I found it interesting because these are facts that not many people know and also quite strange and bizarre facts. Furthermore I feel it is a great website to get questions for a Christmas type quiz or a “pub quiz” like we have in England.

www.mindpowernews.com/5Psychological.htm/

I found it interesting to stumble upon this page mainly because I am currently taking psychology and it helped me to understand different types of personality types and how these can affect your actions. Moreover it shows different experiments that have been conducted to test for such theories.

Finally I StumbledUpon a YouTube link of a “the Amazing Bubble Man”. I was intrigued by how this man could manage to manipulate these bubbles without them popping due to the fact I have personally tried blowing bubbles and mine usually pop straight away! Whereas in comparison this man was linking up the bubbles to make caterpillars and chemistry atoms.

Jones Helium M&Ms

The prompt I choose to review on stumble is if plain M&Ms or peanut M&Ms are better. The discussion had a poll and 59% of the people believed that peanut M&Ms are better. I learned that people who do not like peanuts also responded which makes the poll a little biased and only about 300 people took the poll which is a lot less then actually eat M&Ms. In the better essays the writers used personal experiences and used simple language that all readers that were interested in the topic could understand. The better essays had multiple paragraphs that would break up their thoughts and make it simple for the reader to understand each point being made. In the less viewed essay the writer just wrote one long paragraph which made it very difficult to understand what points were going together and which ones were not. The author also had many difficult words that not every reader would be able to understand, which could have been part of the reason that it was not viewed as often. If i were to approach this essay I would use paragraphs and a great introduction about the taste of plain M&Ms, that's what side I would agree with. I would also use the poll as part of my essay because it is interesting to see how many writers took the poll and would include this information.

poindexter internet acronyms

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1kvoeY/noahrs.buzznet.com/user/journal/4490071//topic:Animals
while stumbling i ran across this picture. this is one of the most funniest animal picture i have ever seen and its kinda cute. this website show different in there "OMG" faces. OMG stands for "oh my God" and and this picture is a diffently omg moment. it shows that not only humans share stupid faces. i think this would be for people who loves animals and of course Internet acronyms.
This stumble is about funny hadwritten letters that people leave. I found this to be very fun, because i can picture some doing that, weither its a funny letter or a mean one. if you are haveing a bad and just need a lilttle picke me up this stumble is for you.
this website alllow you to see some very odd and kind of disturbing things. you will find different pictures of people doing some werid thing or just some werid things in general. it tells you how people in american really dont think before they do things. there is this one pic were a man is sitting in a truck and while pulling a fridge behind it, now how smart is that. but its funny, becasue it shows you how crazy people really are.

Helium 9/16 - Young koun Jeon

1. http://www.helium.com/knowledge/1179-sharing-personal-experiences-that-may-benefit-others 2. I learned various people in the world have personal experiences about sexual abuse, child abuse, and other many abuses. It made me so sorrowful and I felt people is suffering in the other side of world.
3. The author described its experience awfully well. When I read the experience of its, I could see what was the author experienced past and I even felt sorry for her somehow. I was so into it.
4. The lesser essays were containing other woe experiences but the explanation was not fittable. The choice of vocabulary was not good which causes little difficult to understand the essay.
5. I would approach to the topic with my experience carefully choosing the vocabulary I am going to use and carefully organize the experience I am going to describe.

Calhoun Stumbleupon Einstein

rescomp.stanford.edu/~cheshire/EinsteinQuotes.html/

Albert Einstein quotes, i think very boring and would not reccomend to anyone unless they enjoy science alot.

wickedhalo.blogspot.com/2009/09/fallen-princesses.html/

Funny website that has pictures of some of the disney charcters and what they would be now, I would recommend just for a quick laugh but nothing really more.

villageofjoy.com/25-motivational-posters//

Funny "motivational" posters, these do help get your mind of things and i would reccomend if you are needing some time away from everything.

Hartley Stumbleupon Crazy Cake






I liked this article because it was very creative in presenting each cake idea. There were designs from castles to computers. There were some pretty crazy ideas including a shirt and tie and monkeys. This website presented its ideas very clear and very descriptive. I would recommend this article to anyone interested in culinary arts and baking.










This article appealed to me because it gave important information about the most poisonus substances in the world. Ranging from plants to animals and liquids and chemicals, all had one thing in common. They were all very deadly if not caught and treated quickly. Did you know that if you get stung or bit by a pufferfish you have a 50% chance of dying? I also did not know that codiene was as poisonus as it is. I have personally taken it before and know that it doesn't make me feel good at all. Also there were many plants that are deadly if ingested or soaked through the skin. I would read more on this article if I was a doctor or someone wanting to learn about dangers that are everywhere present.

This was an uplifting stroy that you didn't expect to happen the way it did. The man in the audience was trying to catch a foul ball at a baseball game. He fell over the gate and crushed his face. The blood was pouring. All the guy wanted to do was sit back down and be able to give a baseball back to his 21 year old son. He failed at this but succeeded at meeting albert pujols, the hero that day. Albert helped the man stay calm while medical attention was seeked. This article would be good for anyone looking for a good story to read.

Comedy Movies- Bradley King- Stumble Upon

BORAT..."I have a sexy time with my sister"
I stumbled upon this website that list comedy movies you should see before you die. This article interested me because I am huge on watching comedies, and this website defiantly proved that by showing all these pictures of recent comedies that I have watched. I recommend this page to anyone that likes to watch comedies. Because after looking at this page you will realize just how much of your time has been spend in front of a tv, or how much money you have blown going to the movies. This site is not cited that well, all it does is label the pictures. I would like to know after looking at this page how much money I've actually wasted on watching these movies?

JUST THE FACTS OF A COMEDY
1.
Should make a person laugh more than 10 times!
2.Not to much drama.
3.The movie should start off with a bang, and keep the audience laughing through the credits.
4.A good comedy keeps you talking for days!
5. And cant list this one may not be appropriate.


HAHAHAHA!!

Stumble master Jacob Darling

This first stumble upon I came across so different and cool. Dean Q. the person who discovered this weird snake, is a very brave person. I would recommend this to my classmates, if they are into snakes, spiders and other nasty thing. The page was well cited. A question I would ask is has their ever been any other type of animal like that before.

This guy is an unbelieveable runner, and he will go down in history for sure. I page was very well cited. A question I would have for Usain is how does he train.

DREADED! GRIM! MYSTERIOUS! - BRADLEY KING - STUMBLEUPON

I stumbled upon this website and was hooked the second I seen it. The 1979 movie Escape from Alcatraz is still one of my all time favorite movies. I seen this movie for the first time when I was only about 10 and watched it over and over. When I found this website all I could think about was that movie, and questions I had about Alcatraz. I recommend this website because it is very informative about the history of Alcatraz, and was able to answer many of the questions that I had. I also think it is a very good website if you are interested in American history, because I know I am. This website was sited well with authors names, and labels on all the pictures. I really have no questions about this article because it answered all of my questions.

Remembering 9/11-Bradley King-StumbleUpon


This page interested me because I thought what the city leaders did was an amazing way to remember those who lost their life's during 9/11. City leaders along with architects and lighting engineers used high powered spot lights to recreate the World Trade Center. The lights would shine in memory for thirty days. I recommend this article to everyone, because I think it should be read by all in remembrance of everyone that lost love ones that day. It is also a good way to realize that there are good people in the world that love and miss those lost ones. This page is very well cited. The authors name is posted, and the pictures are copyrighted. After I read this passage I would like to know if it would be possible to shine these lights on the anniversary of this tragic event every year?

This stumble was interesting because I have never seen anything like this before. I would recommend this stumble to someone if they loved animals. This stumble is very well sited.




http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#8F6NKq/www.pbase.com/christhorpe/image/58181124/topic:Photography
This stumble was interesting and new because I haven't seen many buildings in Italy like this before. I would recommend this stumble to anyone who likes photography or other country's. This stumble is pretty well sited.

This stumble was interesting and new because I have never seen scooters like this before. I would recommend this stumble to someone who likes funny or cool things. This stumble was not sited very well.

Rat Eating Plant- Tyricee Pelzer- September 14.

Rat-eating plant discovered in Philippines
1. 2.What was interesting and new to me about this page is that i never heard of a rat eating palnt and it caught my eye. 3.I would recommend a classmate here at LMC to view this page because its alot of people here majoring in wildlife study. learning about this new plant will expand there view about the world.
4.It's sited pretty well. it gives u the information u need and nothing more. 5.The question i have is is this plant only found in the Philippines?

The weirdest animals on Planet Earth
1. 2.Whats interesting to me is how big the creature ears are. 3.I would recommend a classmate to this page so they can see how big it ears are and to tell me this picture dont look like Rashawndra.lol. 4. the site on this page is lame. its nothing but one sentence on the creature and its not really long. 5. Does China really have desert?

Sites on this page is easy to find it gives you everything you need. 5. The question i have is if it was suge Knight who would be the night light?

ERIC JACKSON STUMBLE MASTER #3




The first page I stumbled across was one of a unique kind of art. They use money to make art work. In this example they used a dollar to create a t-shirt. I would recommend this page to anyone interested in art using materials from everyday life like money. The sources for this art work are those of Clay Randall’s. I did some more research on this topic and found that there are many things that can be created from money, a spider, a ring and can also be folded many ways to show unique things on bills. A question I have about this is how does one come about folding a one dollar bill into a t-shirt?
The next page I stumbled across was about the size of our world. Most people see tall buildings and structures and think there big or natural structures like mountains or deserts. Our earth is only a tiny speck on a never ending plane with an infinite amount of other objects. I would recommend this site to anyone interested in knowing the true size of earth because it is really not that big. This site was not clearly cited. A question I have is when will we find out if there is life in space or if it does exist elsewhere?
The last page I stumbled across is a comic of the world, but it is showing how Americans view the world. Most Americans view the world like this portrays it too. We think where the greatest country and we see other countries for what we use them for or do to them. I would recommend this to someone in politics because this is something I could see ending up in a news paper making fun of a highly ranked politician. The creator of this comic is unknown. A question I have about this topic is why are the people of the US so ignorant to other countries?



Stumble: Lets Be Friends, Timon amd Pumba IRL, Crazy Ass Goose

1.http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1TTQbW/letsbefriends.blogspot.com//topic:Animals
2. To me it was interesting to see all these dfferent animals together like they are best friends. 3. I would recommend this page to a classmate if he or she had a passion for animals. 4. The sources are good and it shows how we can be friends even though were different or may look different. If these animals can look over their differences than surely we can. 5. I would like to know how they got the pictures of these different animals together.

1.http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#9dXTyx/www.buzzfeed.com/awesomer/timon-and-pumba-irl-cci/topic:Animals 2. I think that it is interesting how Timon and Pumba are friends in the movie and then the life forms of them are walking down the road together. 3. I would recommend this page to a classmate only if they liked animals, or Timon and Pumba. 4. The sources are well cited the picture of the two of them is quite funny, but it also shows how to animals of different kinds can be close. 5. I would like to know how someone got a picture of these to animals together?

1.http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#8wWnHa/www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OStX_wrWGg/topic:Animals 2. I think that it is cool that this goose is trying eveything he can to get to this dog. 3. This video is hilarious and i think that eeryone should watch this "Crazy Ass Goose" 4. This source was not cited very well but it was a very interesting funny video clip. 5. i would like to know what the dog was thinking about that goose attacking him?

StumbleUpon

http://www.lookatbook.com/flash/shell.html





The first site that I stumbled upon was titled "book".


This web page was very interesting, it explained how in thirty-six weeks a sketchbook was sent in random order between four artists. This was interesting because thirty-six weeks gives an artist plenty of time to show there creativity, so I know that the scrap books were really nice and had plenty of pictures inside.


I would recommend my classmates view this page because it is very interesting, although the information on the site isn't very heavy. I don't believe that sources are cited well on this site. All that is mainly given is info about "book". One question that lies in my head about this web page is why aren't personal photos of the scrapbook artists with personal detail about them available on the site?


______________________________________________________________________


http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1MSzJQ/acidcow.com/pics/4018-if-you-printed-the-internet-6-pics.html/



This next site that I stumbled upon is a little weird. The title of it is "If you Printed the Internet". This web page was interesting because it explained how long it would take to print the internet, or at least estimated how long it would take. I was definately surprised to see 57,000 years (Geez). That would be rediculously long. I would recommend my classmate review and read this web page if they would want to at least get an estimation of how long it would take to print out the whole internet. Sources as far as names are not cited well on this web page, however sources such as what you would need to use to print such as an Inkjet printer and the ink type are well cited. A question that I have about this topic is "How long did it take for the publishers of the website to come up with this information"?



____________________________________________________________________



http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1fQ6TY/wickedhalo.blogspot.com/2009/09/fallen-princesses.html/



The title of this web page is " Fallen Princesses". An interesting topic about this web page is that they are discussing the many issues that affect real women, such as self image and addiction. By addiction I'm assuming that they are talking about plastic surgery mainly. I say that because they show an image on the site of a woman being marked for what Im assuming is plastic surgery.














Over the years plastic surgery has become very common, many lives have been claimed and many errors have been made. It can be really scary. I would recommend a classmate read this web page because it shows some of hollywood's talented actresses who have played disney characters, who've actually had plastic surgery procedures done. Sources are cited well on this web page. In the beginning of this site the photographer for the pictures name is given. As for information, I'm thinking that the author of this website takes credit for what is discussed. A question that I have about this site is what statistics of celebrity women in the acting world have had plastic surgery.

Nicole Rogers SU eath footprints


Wow so this next website I stumbled upon was a huge eye opener. You take a test to find out how much it takes for you to live on this planet. Like I took the quiz and I found out that if everyone on the planet lived like I do, it would take the resources of 4.1 planets. And 18 global acres of the earths productive area. This is a good website just to see how much a single person makes an impact on this earth. The only thing I would say about the site is, could you have put all the results for each country together and average them out?

Talley - Stumble Upon - Mon. Sep 14


http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1SQWlc/www.saynotocrack.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/03/people-sideways.jpg/ - The first stumble I came across is this picture and at first look it simply looks like a man sittinn on a concert wall reading a newspaper while his friends are proped up against the wall. Though the man sitting looks normal the other two men look alittle more awkard in leaning against the wall. While I started looking closely at the picture I realized that the three men are laying against the ground. The picture is an illusion because you believe that the three man are up against the wall when in reality they are laying against the floor while others are walking by.
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2MLwzK/www.ptable.com// - I stumbled upon the periodic table. The periodic table is made up of all kinds of elements those that are man-made, and those produced by the earth. Many things are stated on the periodic table such as the atomic number, the mass, the name, and the symbol of the element. The perodic table is world know.The table is also broke into sections; metals,and non-metals. The perodic table is a very helpful tool you use it all the time through out you school life.
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#6i9ChZ/i121.photobucket.com/albums/o238/KatrinaMarie_photos/Niagrafalls.jpg/- The picture shows a very rare sight of Nigara falls. In 1911 the falls froze completely. In the picture it shows children and familys playing I would infer that they are ice skating on the frozen ice. The picture looks dark and cold; for one the time frame it is taken in 1911 and the types of cloths they wore back then where long dark dresses. It is the middle of winter is also why the picture looks so dark and cold.

Rocha Stumbleupon

This week I read “You know you’re in college when” in Stumbleupon. I chose this one because I think it is interesting for all of us here in class. It shows a lot of things we start doing after getting in college and I could see that almost everything fits in what I saw here. It’s up to each one of us what we will do. We don’t have anyone to control uswhile we are here. But it means that everything that happens with us while we are in college is our responsibility, so we have to take care of ourselves in order to be successful in our four years in college.

Bo Foster HELL OF SAND click here

I think this site was pretty interesting because you could make different cool designs and while your at it you could lay down some gun powder leading to C-4 and click fire and light the gun powder and watch the gun powder lead to the C-4 and watch it explode it was pretty cool. You could also make a spout and watch it fill up and or mix with the other colors of sand. You could also make a cool design and watch it fill up with the different color sands. I would refer this to another class mate if they have a creative mind.

Taylor Scheetz Amazing Silver Bug

Awesome Cake

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2BSbYS/www.geekologie.com/2009/01/wow_just_wow_puff_the_magic_dr.php/


This page on stumble caught my eye. I have never seen a cake like this before. If I liked it this much and thought it was interesting I think the rest of my class mates would think so also. It has several different sites on the side of the page that link you to other cake mater pieces. My only question would be; How did they make it sit up like that?

Periodic Table

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2MLwzK/www.ptable.com//


I stumbled upon this page and it is very convenient for all students. If I was say to need the periodic table and it was to small in the book to read this page would help me so much. When you click on a element it makes it bigger and tells you if it's a non-metal or metal. This page would help other students with bio class or most likely other science classes. There are no other sites cited on this page. My question would be; Why don't teachers put this on their websites for student use?

AMAZING BUG

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#8Rctxr/www.ourlighterside.com/stuff/engineer//

This page is so awesome!!! The reason I like it so much is because I have a silver bug myself. Ron Patrick put a lot of hard work into this street legal car. It is by far the coolest bug I have ever seen. It has two engines one of which is a jet, the other is a gasoline powered engine. This guy is extremely smart, he graduated with a PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University. Other class mates would love this especially if they happen to own a bug. At the bottom of the page it shows other links to other cool things he has created. How did he cut a hole that big into that small of a car?

Bo Foster HEMP sad but true click here


What is funny about this picture is the comments on the picture are true. Because you can use hemp to make paper and its a lot easier to grow back and takes a shorter amount of time to grow back unlike trees and we need trees to make oxygen so why cut them down. I would recommend this to a class mate if they didn't know a use for hemp in replacement of trees.

nicole rogers SU underground home



Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live in the movie Peter Pan, who lives in a tree house, and stays a kid forever. well now you can, except for the staying a kid forever, but because of today's creative people, things like living underground or in tree houses are actually possible. I found a website that had every detail on how they made the house underground. I'm not sure who to recommend this page to, but I guess I would recommend this to anyone who wanted to build a house underground because they go through the steps of how they built the house, also anyone who might want to help the community and build a house. The site was eye catching and very well sited and very organized. After seeing this website I have not questions for the site. But I wanna make a house like that!

Bo Foster The Internet ?How long? click here


What i found out about this web page that was interesting is how long it would take to read the Internet, print it, how much ink it would to take to print it etc. I would refer this page to a class mate because its kind of amazing how long these time periods are they're talking about. I guess you can say its useless information but its cool useless information.
