I need to learn how to match the beats  and learn how match the music I make on the IPad to match my song.

We have started a new project. We are going to get a song and then make it original. Using many different types of music.

Over the last three class periods, I have learned a lot about bacteria and how it works. I have learned that  there are many bad kinds of bacteria but also many good types too. Because of the bad types of bacteria, bacteria has gotten a bad reputation, so whenever someone thinks about bacteria they think about the bad kinds of bacteria. My favorite powerpoint I saw was Virus and Bacteria Chapter 17 Biology 11 by Mandie Lynn Walls. The reason I chose this powerpoint was because it explained a lot of things after I showed me something. The words did many cool actions that kept me interested, it also used different colors and backgrounds to catch my eye. This blog did not have full sentences to read, there were bulletpoints which expressed the main ideas. It got to the point quickly unlike some others I saw and it did not use too many pictures to take up slides. And it got the point across quickly without too many slides. This powerpoint also used many key terms that were important for understanding the process. Here is the URL for this powerpoint: www.worldofteaching.com/powerpoints/biology/viruses.ppt.

This week I learned a lot about matching beats in two differents song. It is fun working with music.

The virtual tour of the Supreme Court was educational. The tour was a little slow at reacting but it had many of the key presidents in pictures. There were many bust of many different officials and some of the Supreme Court judges. The inside looked pretty old but kept in good condition it was built many years ago. The Supreme Court was made mostly of wood but with Greek pillars on the front. It was different to see where many big cases were held but also very informative.

The games at ICivic taught about how the court works and that you need support to back up your ideas. I found it easy to out score my opponent because I got a lot of the support and ideas correct. ICivic made me realize that court is a lot more than a game. It has a lot of arguments and you have to have evidence or an argument to go into court.

We are still looking at our projects. I Am almost finished, I just have to put the finishing touches on it. I have really enjoyed doing this project.

I am very excited. We started a new project this week where we put two songs together and try to get them to change to the other and keep a good beat. I really think I am doing a good job in this class.

The Blues are going to need a good push to get into the playoffs. A new flame has sparked the blues. With the return of Andy McDonald and T.J Oshie in the last two months. The Blues picked up a big win against the NHL leading Canucks, beating them three to two at the Scottrade Center. The Blues leading scorer  is David Backes, argubly one of the Blues best players and a 2011 allstar selection. The Blues will make the playoffs if they can tough it out here. The Blues, if they make the playoffs will most likely be in the eighth seed probably facing the Canucks in the first round. The Blues are the fifth team under the eighth spot line which is not good for them. Can the Blues make a push and make the playoffs for the second straight year and start another streak? The Blues play their best when they are at home and are facing teams from the eastern conference.  The good thing is that the Blues are playing at home four of their next five games but the next five games are against the Western Conference. The Blues could really move up in the standings if they win these next five. The Blues have had to bring up a lot of members from Peoria because of the many injuries they have had this season. Soon hopefully David Perron will be back in action. David was hurt in a December where he got a dirty hit from Joe Thorton who was ejected from the game for the hit. The Blues have momentum right now and if they keep this up they will have a chance to make the playoffs.

Audacity is pretty easy to use and I am comfortable with it, I was able to learn how to remix music. I enjoyed this.

I am still combining music and am hoping to finish up today. I still don't understand a lot about audacity. 

I have found the music and sound affects I was looking for and am now ready to start combining music. I thought it was going to be hard but it is not too hard.

The Sifteo Cube System allows players to combine the different systems to play the same game. The  people who originally invented these to maybe help students to study. You can download games to play. This could eventually help us invent new systems to help us. The Nintendo 3DS play 3D games without glasses and it has a touch screen. It can take 3D pictures. It is backwards compatible to regular DS's. It is about the size of a Nintendo Lite.  The Nintendo 3DS is the succesor to the Nintendo DS excel. The Razor Switchblade is a very sensitive keyboard that changes the keys to adapt to the game you are playing. This allows you to have the mobile experience in a stationary place.  The Motorola Xoom Tablet is a 10 inch display. It runs on googles honeycomb operating system. It has 32 gigs of onboard storagewith a SD card that can sore up to 32 more gigs. It has dual cameras and it uses flash. The ITwin allows one computer to talk to another all around the world. They only work on PC's right now but a Mac edition will come in the summer. The XI3 Modular Computer is a computer but it smaller than a regular computer. It is a box that can do all the things a regular computer can do.

Music is way for artists to vent their feelings. Music is a great way to express yourself. Listening to music is one of my hobbies. Music allows me to sing or dance, whether it is playing my Viola or just singing, music makes me want to do those things. Music is an outlet when you are feeling bad, sad,or mad. Music is amazing it does so many things for so many people. Music is great it just helps me have fun when I have nothing else to do.

I enjoyed watching the video and learning more. She brought up some good points and I am not sure how online gaming helps us solve real world problems. At first she sounded like she was a little crazy at first but when she began to explain, I understood a lot more. The lecture taught me a lot and it sounded a little sane but still I can't see how playing will help solve real life problems.

I have enjoyed making this business letter. I already knew about the format. I had no idea at first who to send it to I eventually got one. I decided that instead of just feedback I would give ideas I have thought about for suggestions to Apple. I had some trouble finding the email of the CEO but eventually I found it. It was easy to find something to say. All I did was things I can't do on my mac.

feeling it sting my throat

making my eyes burn

gulping it down

The Blues are 2-0 looking sharp beating Philadelphia in OT for their first win. For their second win they unmercifully pounded the Ducks 5-1 in a game that featured ten fights. Without our best fighter Cam Janssen out with a concussion. The Blues are tied with three teams for second and the only reason the Red Wings are in first is because they have played three games. Mike D'Agostini leads the Blues in goals right now with 2 in two games. The Blues have a road game in Nashville tonight which I hope is a good game, Nashville is one of the undefeated teams we are tied with at the moment. What does the future hold for the Blues? I don't know but their fate will be decided soon.
