Stumble Upon Nicole Nixon
The first page that popped up on stumble was PhobiaGuide.com [http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1wMufs/www.phobiaguide.com//]. It lists all of the words for the random phobia's people have. I think everyone should see this page because its funny seeing what people can be scared of, for example genophobia, which is fear of sex. There are no sources cited on this page. I just want to know are people really scared of all these random things?
The second page i came upon was "CANABALT" [http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#9LC9du/adamatomic.com/canabalt//]. This is a very interesting game where you are escaping from an unknown location and are trying to jump over random obstacles and from building to building. If you like games you should view this page to try this one out. There were no sources for this page because it was a game, and it led me to having just one question, Who makes up these games?
The last page i stumbled to was "ohnotheydidnt: the 10 most disturbing books of all time" [http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2vBi6j/community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/35172946.html?page=2/]. This is a really cool website where an avid reader has put up a list of the ten most disturbing books he has ever read. It makes me want to read one of the books. I think people should all see this page just to see what he has to say and see what books he put up there. This page is not really well cited, it does give information about the books but not truly cited. I was just wondering why he says these books are the worst and its making me want to read them. To do my own research on the books to see if they are actually the worst.
Fighting through the pain-Bradley King-StumbleUpon
This page was interesting to me because despite Australia's Steve Hooker injury, he still claimed the gold during the world championships in the pole vault. Doing this shows how courageous and willing Steve was to be the best in the world.What really got me interested though was that I did a similar thing this past track season, just not on such high a level. I ran from March through May on a fractured ankle. Despite the pain I felt I did not want to give my season up. Because I knew that it was my year to break some records, and win some races. I recommend this page to athletes that need encouragement to fight through injuries, and adversity that you will face as an athlete. This was one of the best cited pages that I have read so far. The page has an author, date, and labeled the picture. This article did not leave me wanting to know more, it was a very informative page that answered all my questions.

I stumbled on the this page: These are short sentences with different types of facts in it. I thought it was very interesting to read. Some things are truly amazing and of some are just funny to read. There is one like ‘ When Albert Einstein died, his final words died with him.’ This one made me laugh. Some others like ‘George Washington grew marijuana in his garden’ were interesting to read and funny to know. But there were also some facts which I didn’t knew and I could learn some of. I didn’t knew that During World War One, The future Pope John XXIII was a sergeant in the Italian Army, Albert Einstein was once offered the Presidency of Israel. He declined saying he had no head for problems and that Only 1 child in 20 are born on the day predicted by the doctor. One funny fact for me as a tennis player was this one. It is illegal to play tennis in the streets of Cambridge.

This was really interesting because I am from Europe. It also strikes me that Americans do not know a lot of what happens in the rest of world events. They often know where they use others (Europe) countries use for, but that is all they know most of the time. I also see that the 'pussies' are in europe! I wonder where they think that…

I saw these pictures and thought it was awful. You don’t think it’s possible to life like this but I know that some people do. I don’t care when it’s messy in my room but when I see this, I wished that guy had a mam who tells him to clean his room. It’s disgusting and it’s not possible to stay healthy in this environment.

I watched a video with a guy scratching his raccoons arms.I feel llike thats out of the ordinary. None of my friends have racoons as pets , and if they did I doubt they would be petting it like a cat or dog.In a weeird twisted kind of way the video is cute because the racoon is holding his arms up for the owner.Although its cute I still wouldn't buy one.This video shoukd be used as a sublimittal commercial to see how many people would buy them as house pets.

I read about Photoshop efeects and how to munipulate them. I personally love photoshop , its interesting and it keeps you busy. I used to want to be a photographer so this wasa definitely one of my areas of interest. Mostly when I think of photoshop I think of , Who had the time and patience to create all of these effects and put them together so efficiently? There are jobs that are based off of creating illusions and photoshop, How much easier coukd their jobs be? Before I came to Lees-Mcrae I visited the Art Institute Of Atlanta , My tour guide showed me plenty of interesting things , but most eye poping of all she showed me inverse colors of photographer pictures.To me photoshop is a helpful but yet and still hendering tool to your imagination.

I read and article called fall fashion 2009.The article bascically was saying that the colors and trends we liked last year aren't the same as what we as consumers like now.I feel like thats accurate. As consumers we decide what we want to wear.We decide the colors that go with the season, and ultimately we decide what producers make . Producers make what consumers want because they are in the industry to make a proftit hince the quote " the customer is always right"The author wrote this paper pretty well . The other two weren't so great they mostly just had spelling errors.IfI was the author of this paper I would have written to the propmpt as she did.

What interests me about this article is because Michael jordan is one of the best basketball players theat ever came around. Also between the end of Michael Jordan college career and when he started playing for the NBA career,Michael Jordan had helped team USA to a gold medal at 1984 olympics in Los Angeles. But i think Michael is a great player.
I would recommend one of my classmates this, especially if they play basketball, because they can learn a lot from Michael Jordan. A question i would ask is hard do you have to work to become goos as this man.
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#25Y5wU/www.twohundredsitups.com// I Like this article because i am trying to get into shape for one. And also in this article it says" If you're serious about increasing your core strength, that you need to follow this six week training program. And i am trying to build up my strength. I recommend this to whomever is trying to get into shape. A question i would ask is, is basically is it worth it.
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1KwuCT/www.explosm.net/comics/1801// I like tis article because, it basically talks about how you can have fun. and in this it is showing funny comics. Comics are very fun and it also can make people have a better day just by reading them. So i recommend that if you are having a bad day read a comic and maybe it can cheer you up. My question is how long it take you to make these comics? and why you do it?

Is It Better To Be a Jock Or A Nerd...? -Bradley King-Stumble Upon
This page was very interesting because I realized how much money Micheal Jordan makes, when he going to a movie, goes out for dinner, watching the 100 meter dash , and so on. I recommend this page to anyone that goes to work everyday and makes nothing compared to Micheal Jordan. But what was truly amazing is that if MJ saved 100% of his income for 450 years he would still have less money Bill Gates has today. This page was not cited at all. After reading this I only have one question, how much money does Bill Gates have?

1. Cyanide and Happiness
What interested me about the web page is the humor behind the comic. Although it was a comic, it had a message behind it. The message to me was that you can do anything that you put your mind too. I would recommend a classmate to view this page because they may need some inspiration. You will be amazed at what you can do sometimes. The sources were cited well on the web page. A question that I have about the topic is if there are more comics related to the topic?!
2. On the Purina dog food diet(http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#/fHWfv/n2.nabble.com/On-the-Purina-Dog-Food-Diet-td3398088.html/)
What interested me about the web page was the funny story that it contained. I have worked at a pet store so I know what dog foods are better than others. Just the fact that the lady asked her if she had a dog seeing that she had dog food in her hand was funny to me. I would recommend this to a classmate because one it is funny and another reason is that it is good to know that there are dog foods that are better than others and you should see which dog food is best for your dog. A question that I have about the page is if this is a true story or not?!

Melvin- Helium- Textbooks
For this Helium blog, I am reviewing the topic “Finding Cheap College Textbooks.” I found the highest rated article very helpful and informative. It gives great tips on how to save money buying textbooks and how to make more money selling them. The higher rate article was very detailed and extremely informative. It included websites that would buy back text books, the article even list what countries the websites accepted payment from. This author was very straight forward with her answers and followed a clear structure. The lowest rated article was still informative, but not very straight forward. There is a lack of structure; it almost feels like the person wrote the paper as like they would speak. Not to mention that there are a lot of misspelled words and grammatical errors. If I where to write an essay on this topic, I would try to be as clear and informative as possible. I believe that the clearer and easier the essay is, the more helpful it will be to the audience.

I thought this was interesting because these pictures were of animals I haven't seen before. I would recommend a classmate look at this page because they probably haven't seen these animals either. It isn't cited that well, however, they have a link you can click on to view their main page. I want to know what each one of these species are called. I would further research these animals if I knew the name of them.
I thought this was interesting this chimpanzee takes care of various cubs for this organization that breeds tigers, lions, and leopards. I would reccomend a classmate view this page because it is interesting how animals will take care of each other, no matter what species they are. The resources are cited well for this page. I would like to know how many animals this chimp has raised. I would research this organization to answer my question.
I thought this was interesting because somehow people took pictues of all these animals sleeping without them waking up. I would reccomend a classmate view this page if they want to see something that will make them laugh. The sources are not cited well. My question is how did they take the pictures without waking up the animal.Nemethy Random

Lauren Blake Proffitt- StumbleUpon- Unusual Date Ideas
I really liked this site because I have been dating the same person for four years and we have ran out of things to do on dates. These also seem to be a way to really get to know the other person. You could never really get to know your date by going to the movies. By doing some of these ideas two people could really talk with each other. I recommend this site to anyone that is bored with the same old repeat dates. I don't think this site needs citations. I wonder how many people have done any of these things before.

Lauren Blake Proffitt- StumbleUpon- We are all on the dark side.
This was incredibly interesting to me. I found out a lot about myself and other people. I always thought that I would be the good Samaritan and be the one to never conform but now I'm not so sure what I would do. I am not different from everyone else in the world so what makes me think that I would stop to help a lady lying in the road or not knowingly torture a person just because I was afraid of what would happen to me. I would recommend this site to anyone who thinks they would always be the hero and always do what is right. I think this site was probably cited very well but I'm just not sure where to look. I leave you with this. If real or fake, would you conform? Would you Do what is right?

2. The topics I have thought about from the blog writing I have read were dogs, architecture, animals in general, interesting videos, and different types of phrases.
3. Stumble is helpful as a prewriting tool because you get to look at articles under a topic that interests you. It also helps you show others what interests you. There were a lot of stumble blogs that were interesting to me but the top three blogs were by Jacob Darling, Ryan Sparks and Eric Jackson. The stumble by Jacob Darling was about puppies. I liked this one because I am interested in learning as much as I can about dogs. The stumble by Ryan Sparks was about Einstein le perroquet, a car, and birthday facts. The perroquet was amusing and I did not think a perroquet could learn that much. The car is unnatural and it looks like it is turned sideways. I would like to know the same thing that Ryan Sparks would like to know about this car, how does it work? The birthday facts was interesting because I did not know I could find out that much about my birthday. The stumble by Eric Jackson was about an interesting phrase, a blooper video and a museum of architecture. The phrase was interesting and true. The video was funny and very distracting to someone who is trying to write and watch at the same time. The museum was really cool. I liked all the windows and the construction of the building. It is interesting because it is not something you would see in everyday society.
4. I read a lot of helium blogs but there were only three that stuck out as saying something about writing elements. The three blogs were by Derk Bouwman, Kayla Caldwell, and Young koun Jeon. Derk Bouwman's blog shows that it would be useful to create a mnemonic to remember things. I agree with this. In the article, it shows how helpful it is. Kayla Caldwell's blog shows that a good way to write an essay is to write it as a play. That is also helpful and it proves helpful in the article also. According to Young koun Jeon, having good grammar and vocabulary are important when writing and understanding an essay. This is also true because if the reader cannot understand the essay then they will not pay any attention to it.
5. I think it helps others to know what you interested in. I think it also helps others to see if you have anything in common with them. I would rather blog like we have been doing rather than writing an essay everyday in class or for homework every night about things that do not interest anyone.
2. The topics I have thought about from the blog writing I have read were dogs, architecture, animals in general, interesting videos, and different types of phrases.
3. Stumble is helpful as a prewriting tool because you get to look at articles under a topic that interests you. It also helps you show others what interests you. There were a lot of stumble blogs that were interesting to me but the top three blogs were by Jacob Darling, Ryan Sparks and Eric Jackson. The stumble by Jacob Darling was about puppies. I liked this one because I am interested in learning as much as I can about dogs. The stumble by Ryan Sparks was about Einstein le perroquet, a car, and birthday facts. The perroquet was amusing and I did not think a perroquet could learn that much. The car is unnatural and it looks like it is turned sideways. I would like to know the same thing that Ryan Sparks would like to know about this car, how does it work? The birthday facts was interesting because I did not know I could find out that much about my birthday. The stumble by Eric Jackson was about an interesting phrase, a blooper video and a museum of architecture. The phrase was interesting and true. The video was funny and very distracting to someone who is trying to write and watch at the same time. The museum was really cool. I liked all the windows and the construction of the building. It is interesting because it is not something you would see in everyday society.

Lauren Blake Proffitt- StumbleUpon- Reality Winnie the Pooh
This to me is a very interesting representation of the innocence of children. It makes me think about how children do not see the evil in the world. Not that I am saying animals are evil just that this is only and artistic representation of it. If you were to tell an adult that you were going to put a bear, a pig. a tiger, a rabbit, and a donkey together they would never think that the animals would be best of friends as it is in the television show "Winne the Pooh". An adult would think of something close to the scenario above. This is because this would be a way more likely outcome but would it not be nice to still think like a child; to be innocent and not see the bad in things. I would suggest this to a class mate because I would like them to think about what this means to how we are raised to see things. I also, can't help but wonder how the pig crawled up there and is hanging onto the bear.

I picked this website because I think its really cool to see how creative people can get with making cakes. I think its just another way of expressing art. I would recommend this if you like seeing peoples work in a different way. This website is cited well. I wonder if this takes patience?http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#26s1cL/abduzeedo.com/25-crazy-cake-designs/
I found this page interesting because it has the top 15 Bizarre Sea Animals. It shows you all the different sea animals that are out there that we probably dint he know existed. This website would be interesting to anyone who would like to see what is out actually being discovered out in the sea. The pictures were cited with links that took you to another website where it told you more about that sea animal, I found this helpful. I wonder what haven't we discovered?http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#19m3TU/blog.rocketboom.com/post/102948092/the-top-15-most-bizarre-sea-animals/
I picked this because since Kanye West interrupted
Taylor Swift during the VMA's its been a huge deal in the media. They have these pictures that are making fun of him which I find funny. Anyone who thinks what Kanye doesn't like what he did at the VMA's would find this humorous. I think the page is not cited good. I would like to know what made him go after Taylor Swift like he did?

This website is pretty cool because it shows you how to create some amazing photo effects on photoshop, I would recommend to anyone interested in this program and even people that would like to see some cool effects.

This website is very annoying and i would only recommend if you really want to tick your roomate off, it just is a gong that you can hit multiple times.

A cute little lemur looking thing apparently called a slow loris, video of it being tickled and petted. I guess you could watch if you wanted to see something cute.

Whilst stumbling I came across an album of the earth. At first it looks like a map, however you can click on whatever county you wish to and then look at pictures of cities, food, mountain and sunset. This is a pretty cool website because you get to view the world and see pictures which represent key facts of a certain country.
www.wisebread.com/travel-resources/
Next I StumbledUpon a website which was called “Wisebread”. This website was set up to for people living on small budgets and still wanting a “large” lifestyle. I found this website good due to the fact being a student there are many different money issues that may occur, especially as I have English bank accounts and trying to exchange money. Furthermore it gives you great tips for saving money when buying flights, accommodation and also I found a section which allows you to do Home Exchange. This I found very interesting because I’ve seen the movie “The Holiday” and didn’t realise this was actually possible to do.
www.cardtoss.com
Finally I stumbled on a Card game site. This was a lot different than the other websites I had found and it gave me a chance of playing a game and having fun. Basically you had different games but the default game was to throw a card into a magicians’ hat, I managed to get to level 3. Also you can get different card games such as poker.

ROCHA Stumbleupon Environment
This week I read about “The environmental impact of cell phones” and I think it is an interesting subject because 61% of the Earth’s population have a cell phone. The average use of each one of these phones is only one year and the energy we use to charge our phones and the CO2 emission are high numbers. So we have to think a little bit more about the environment and start recycling our phones and not letting our chargers remain plugged in while not being used in order to diminish the energy wasted. So, taking care of these little things can help our planet and in one year we will have saved enough energy to power 28 thousand homes.
ROCHA helium education
In Helium, this week, I chose to read about how much parents should be involved in kid’s homework. That is an interesting topic because we had this experience as children and most of us will be on the other side, as parents. The best article was the best one because the woman who wrote it knew how to organize her ideas well and was able to show her points of view very clearly. She argues well to defend her position. I also read an intermediate article and it is probably an intermediate one because the ideas are more confused and who wrote it gave only one example about the topic in the whole text. For me it is not the best way to convince someone about something. The worse article, according to the Helium website, has informal language and maybe that is why it was ranked as the worse one. If I was to write about this topic I would say that parents have to be involved in kid’s homework as far as they can and they think it is necessary.

One thing I found interesting about this picture that I came across while stumbling this morning was the attitude and opinions of many American’s today. This picture implies that Americans consider their country the greatest in the world. I would recommend this to a classmate who was interested in some humour about the USA. The sources aren’t cited very well in this stumble, a question about this topic is why do Americans perceive their country the best in the world?
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1mLvoM/abstrusegoose.com/strips/illusion.PNG/
This image was very interesting because of the message it implied. It portrayed that not matter which decision the cow choose he was still going to be killed. I would recommend this to any one who is interested in animal humour. The sources are not cited well at all it only has the link to the page. A question for this topic is how does this image portray illusion?
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1ORHaY/www.dogwork.com/superadorable//
This link was a video clip of a Slow Loris getting tickled under the arms. This was knew to me because I didn’t know Slow Loris’s enjoyed being tickled under there arms, I also didn’t think people were fond of this. I would recommend this to anyone who has an interest in animals, a question I have is if Slow Lories enjoy being tickled what other animals enjoy this?
Andrew Wolford -- Stumble
My first link is a web comic that I have been a fan of for awhile and honestly stumble brought up a page I have forgotten about. I'm using this as my picture because its funny and also mostly true. I know at least a few people have noticed how crazy squirrels are on college campuses.
Surviving the world
This next page is just text but it shows the stupidity that can happen when tech support is called. I'll leave it to you to see why I'm posting this.

For my last page I have a site called sign spotting. If you couldn't tell by the name its a website with random pictures of signs. I would have taken my picture from here until I found surviving the world.

What I liked about this blog was it told me all the facts about the day I was born and information that I didn't know. I would recommend it to my classmates all the time so they could see what happened on their birthday. I want to know how they find all the informaton so fast and get it back to you.
When I stumbled upon this I thought it was pretty cool because someone had to take the time to build it. I would recommend it to my classmates who are into building or lego's. My question for this stumble woud be how many legos did it take them to build this whole thing?, and how long did it take them to build the whole thing?
When I stumbled upon this I had to stop and look at all the puppies in the slideshow. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a cute dog to adopt or who just likes to look at the cute puppies. My question would be did people send the pictures in to the site for people to look at or are they in an adoption home?

The first stumble page I came across was a quote that was the best quote ever. “There’s a point in life when you get tired of chasing everyone and trying to fix everything. But it’s not giving up. It’s realizing that you don’t need certain people and their crap.” This is a very bold quote. It teaches one in life that even though some people are very important but you don’t necessarily need them. I would recommend this to a class mate that need to get over someone because it has helped me very much. The author of this quote is unknown which is unfortunate because I’m sure that he or she has many great other quotes. A question I have about this quote is why isn’t it east to get over someone ha?

The second stumble page I came across was a blooper video of people doing really dumb things. I didn’t really learn much from this besides that common saying “think before you act”. This page is very entertaining and funny to me. I would recommend anyone to view this web page that is looking for a good laugh. This site was not cited very well. A question I have about this is why people do such dumb things?

The last page I stumbled across is a museum of architecture. It shows the amazing designs of construction and what can be done with it. Learning architecture is very difficult however appreciating it is way better. I would recommend this to anyone that appreciates amazing architecture. The cites on this page are shown well each structure has an article where it tells about it and their creators. How do people come up with such great creations that function as a home and look so superficial?

Jones Stumble Summer
For my first article I reviewed was called "fun in the tub with bath tube paint" at http://www.burbmom.net/fun-in-the-tub-with-bathtub-paint/. It is a recipe about how to make finger paint with dish detergent, corn starch, boiling water and food coloring. It is an easy way to let children have fun in the bathtub and clean it at the same time. This would be a fun activity if you were babysitting and had to give smaller kids baths or for parents. The source is a website called burbmom that makes up fun things to do with children.
The second article i found was called "ten rules for being human" and was basically wise and somewhat funny rules to being human. My favorite on was "Other people are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself." I thought it was an interesting way to look at people, and had never thought about it. I recommend this article to someone who is interested in learning a little about how everyone thinks in a humorous way. The source was the my source company. The URL was http://www.bluinc.com/free/human10.htm.
The third website was http://summerfives.com/?excmpid=OC20-ST-1-teens and gave many different mini choices to see what the majority of people enjoyed the most about summer. For example the best reality show, summer food, theme park,fun sites, TV station etc. For each title gave five options and as you clicked on an option you like the most the results of the public was shown, in percentages. It was really cool to see what you thought compared to other people. I recommend this to anyone who likes to do quizzes online or see what was hot this summer so to speak. The source was the collegeboard, which is normally pretty accurate. My only question is who took the poll? only people on the website and also when? It would be interesting to know

Effects and so forth-Rashawndra Doby
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2zU8VE/www.designshard.com/video-tutorials/11-great-photoshop-photo-effects-tutorials//
This article is actually pretty interesting. It`s showing the differences of effects this artist has to offer. The part I extremely liked was how The question I would ask would be how did he find the different effects, like making them himself. I would recommend this article to artists who are interested in effects and drawing.
So apparently everyone has done this article before, but i can really care less. I stumbled it and now I want to do it. Interesting because it is very funny. I mean biased yes but its comedy and somewhat true. You cannot go wrong without stumbling this. If you like funny comments and drawings about your own country than stumble this. No sources from what I see. I would ask the artist if they are americans or not.
So this is a not so common blog. Kids playing on the playground as monsters, could be common when they wanna be vicious and mean around the other kids. Haha it is actually scary funny so if you do not like kids than this is a blog for you. Definitely no sources cited, pretty random if you ask me. I would ask the artists how did they figure that children would be the monsters on the playground?
Gooding-Stumble-Rubik's Cube
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2cvtb1/www.goodmanlivingwell.com/RubiksCube.htm/
I have always been amazed by watching people solve the rubik's cube. There are some who can solve it in a matter of seconds and even people who can solve it behind their back!! I know that I could do that if I practiced and tried hard enough, but I just don't have the patience or time to. What fascinated me most about the page was that someone had actually taken the time to explain and write out the best way to solve the rubik's cube. It was amazing how much time and detail that they put into these papers to be able to help others who want to learn more about the rubik's cube. I think that anyone who wants to learn how to actually solve the rubik's cube, without taking off the stickers, would be interested in this page since it would be the best and easiest way for then to learn how to solve it. And who knows maybe they'll brake a record or something!!! This stumble is not cited at all. My question would have to be: How long did it take you to learn how to solve the rubik's cube? I think to future my research I would have to actually get myself a rubik's cube and try to learn how to solve it myself using these steps.
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2Sio8J/www.5ad.org/AmazingFacts.htm/
Who doesn't love to learn interesting facts about World War II? I know that it always fascinates me when I learn a new fact that I may not have known before hand! A lot of the facts that I read in this stumble were new to me. For example I had no idea that the U.S Army had more ships than the U.S Navy. I personally find that ironic!! I think that a classmate who enjoys fun facts or is really interested in War time history would enjoy this stumble immensely. I think that if a classmate had a history project due and wanted some fun facts to liven up their paper then this stumble would come in handy. This stumble is cited quite well. My question for this stumble would be: How did you find out these World War II fun facts?
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1b9Crq/www.gizmodo.com.au/2009/09/this-clip-is-proof-that-birds-are-secretly-composers//
Birds on a wire, I think what everyone else thinks 1) I'm going to get pooped on, or 2) Why do they do that? But after this video I think that I will view birds on a wire much differently. Who knew that someone would be ingenious enough to actually look at birds on a wire and see music? I know that I would never see that. It was really fascinating for me since while throughout middle and high school I played the flute. I really enjoyed music and I loved to be able to play it. I think that for someone to be able to look at something as simple as birds sitting on a phone wire and make a piece of music out of it takes some real talent and I eye for music! I wish I had that skill! I think that a classmate would enjoy this stumble if they really appreciate music or just love music in general. I also believe that any classmate would enjoy this stumble since it is just so fascinating to be able to look at the birds and then watch as it turn into a piece of music right before your eyes. It's pretty awesome. This stumble was cited a little bit. My question for this stumble would be: How long did it take you to see the music and write the piece down? I think that any future research I would do would have to be to take a music writing course and try to write my own music from birds on a wire.
Bo Foster Chinese chef forms noodles by hand
This guy is great he starts out with a wad of dough and stretches pulls stretches pulls then twists and god knows what else but the guy ends up with thousands of little tasty noodles. Boy would that be an interesting restaurant to eat at, with this guys skills i bet the pasta is great. I would refer this video to some one if they were interested in how you can make noodles by hand.
Bo Foster photo shop click here
These pictures are amazing it would of taken hours to complete just one. All the pictures are great I have no clue how to do this all i know is you would have to be very motivated and dedicated to your work. I would recommend this to a fellow class mate if they would under stand how long it must of took some one to complete one of these, understand what kind of talent one must have do this.
Bo Foster Grave markers click here
The grave markers on this page are very crafty especially the motorcycle ones they look like it took a long time to make some of them because they were very detailed. I don't know why i would refer this to a class mate other than because they were cool looking and probably very expensive.

stumble frazier weird pictures
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#6i9ChZ/i121.photobucket.com/albums/o238/KatrinaMarie_photos/Niagrafalls.jpg/
I stumble across this picture, and it brought back memories when I went and visited the Niagara Falls State Park back in 2005. They say it's about 200,000 U.S gallons of water per second, so that's is a lot of water that frozen in 1911. I would recommend because it's a very interesting places to visit. The page was not cited at all. A question I would have is how long did it take before the water was back to normal.
The next stumble I came across, and I thought it was very creative how the artist came up with all the 11 photo effect. All the images have there own great effect. I would recommend this to my classsmates who are very interested in the art and design field. The page was cited ok. A question I would have is what techiques did he/she use for those pictures.
I stumble across this article, and it catch my attention because I thought the figures were all real people. I would recommend this to my classmates because it's very interesting and unique. I thought the page was not cited very good. A question I would ask is how long did it take to make one of those mask.
StumbleUpon
The first website that I stumbled upon was a video of an animal (the type is unknown) being tickled by what I'm assuming is its owner. It was the cutest thing in the world to me. The way it (the animal) raised its' arms as though displaying comfort from its owner massaging it. The mysteriousness of the creature is what made this stumble so interesting. I would recommend a classmate view this page because, it's so cute, it's funny, and they can get to see that some of the meanest or scariest looking creatures are actually cuddly and friendly. Cited sources arent necessary on this web page. A question that I have about this page and the video is where did this person find a cute and mysterious pet like this?
____________________________________________________________________
The second website that I stumbled upon is called "Are You Man Enough". This website is very interesting, because it is a series of comics, drawn out neatly of a man and a troubled looking woman. The man asks the girl's father whether he could marry his daughter. But the mean father is resistant. The father gives in and allows the man to marry his daughter under one condition... He must play a really cool guitar solo. I would recommend a classmate view this in order to get a laugh in. Sources are cited well, the author of the comic is given with his email address listed. One question in my mind is what inspired the author to create this series of comic drawings.
____________________________________________________________________
The third website that I stumbled upon was a periodic table, this was definately interesting to me because my 11th grade teacher was big on the periodic table. Oh how I miss that woman. She made us memorize every single element, along with the element's atomic number, and the initials. I would recommend a classmate view this page to become more familiar with the periodic table, learn the symbols, and the atomic number. Sources arent cited really well on this site. As a matter of fact I dont see any sources cited at all on this site. One question in my mind is what was the creator thinking, as far as feelings, what did he feel when creating the periodic table?
Talley- Stumble Upon - Sep 30
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#16GWIV/flash.abunawaf.com/2005/10/whackboss.swf/ The first thing I stumbled upon was a website called WhackYourboss.com I thought at first it was going to be funny kinda like whackamole, but I was totally wrong this is a game in which you pick objectes to literally kill your boss with. The senioreo is in cartoon form and your boss walks in your office and starts complaining about your work skills and bad habbits. After he is finished talking you can click on diefferent object and then it plays out this bloody, deathly fight between the boss and the employee. I was really destrubed by the different sences and that people would actually find this entertaining.
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2oA6sF/www.spaceinvaders.de// The second thing I stumbled upon was an interactive game called Space Invaders. It is a shooting game where your objective is too shoot and destory the invaders. This game was one of the first arcade games it was released before Pinball Machines and Slots. It was desgined in 1978 in Japan and is still the most popular acarcade game.
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1uk3In/www.flickr.com/photos/burn_tires/3844038109// -The third thing I stumbled upon was an image of Mario and the mushroom made out of Pepsi products. I thought this was very impressive and probably very time consuming. The way in which the soda boxs are arranged in order to depict an image is just amazing.
The planning that went behind this project alone would be very time consuming.
StumpleUpon Hartley Baby
This is article was really sad. It was an article about a British woman had her baby at 21 weeks. The doctors told her that the baby would be stillbron because it was severly underdeveloped. The baby was born breathing, crying and moving both arms and legs. By law, the doctor could not treat and care for the baby. British law states that if a baby is born before 22 weeks, then you cannot try and save it. This baby was 2 days shy of 22 weeks. The mom held the baby in her arms and watched it die after doctors refused to save him. This article should act as an awareness to doctors and "laws" who think it is okay to not try and save a human being that is clearly alive.
This article caught my attention because it is really hard to be cordial and friends with your exes. I don't know what it is but it's just always going to be awkward until you both come to some kind of agreement or peace with eachother. My favorite point in the article was "acquantices with history". I agree with this and then I don't. For example, if you were in a relationship for 1 year and then you break up. Its hard to even talk so being an aquantice can be hard for a while but then once you are friends then it might be easier to say this. This article is great for couples to read together so that both man and woman know what to expect if something was to happen.
Im not so sure about this article but it would be worth doing more research on and if it really was true. This man alledegely swam the amazon river only drinking two bottles of wine a day. He is an alcoholic who claims that all he needed was to prove to himself that he could beat the amazon river with his beer belly and glasses of wine.poindexter stumble
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2foKDO/medicaltranscriptionist.org/biologically-curious/huge-dogs/topic:Animals
when i was little i remember watching Clifford the Big Red Dog, and i always thought a dog could never get that big. the dogs on this page may not be as big as Clifford but they are still gigantic. i that this was so cool, i mean i never seen as dog this size throughout my life time. it's so unordinary but its so amazing at the same time.
well stumbling i ran across the most mind blowing thing. on this website there is a man who creates thing out of wood. the picture on the left is one of the things that he made.i thought this was so amazing and interesting, because there not many people that create such extravagant things out of wood. the fact that he was able to get the piece of art work to float on water is also amazing. i thought this would be a good blog because it's unique and different and outstanding work by an human being.
on this website it shows a piece of art work that's not only time consuming but difficult. it shows that artist must have patients and talent to create such a piece of work. this piece of work is so amazing perfect that it makes you want to try to create a self portrait of oneself .

http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2iBe9M/www.particlezoo.net/physicsLOLcats.html/ Things that I found interesting about this website had to be all of the pictures of the cats doing crazy space related things. I really enjoyed the black hole cat. I would recommend this website to any of my classmates, I think that anyone who loves cats would love these pictures, they are just plain cute. The sources are not as easily found as some of the other sources on different sites, so if you are looking for sources good luck on this website. I wonder who thinks of dressing their cats up in space suits.http://www.stumbleupon.com/toolbar/#2KOo5z/www.newbiereport.com/high-school-1957-vs-2009//
I found this article very interesting because it takes guts to live on the side of a building and have nothing really supporting you. I think that any of my class mates would find this article interesting, and they would be amazed that someone would even try this crazy lifestyle. The sources for this website are clearly written and can be found with ease. I cannot image what this person was thinking to do something that outrageous.
http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2rZgVA/thetravelersnotebook.com/activity-guide/50-things-to-do-before-you-die//
The 50 things that you should do before you die, there are some things on the list that I would not do like, sky diving even though that is suppose to one of the greatest thrills I do not think that I would do that. I feel that any of my class mates would enjoy reading this list and thinking about what they would or wouldn’t do. The sources are very clear and can be found easily on this website. I wonder would come up with this list? And how do things make the list?
