Danger Of A Single Story

1.What does it mean to have a 'single story' about a place or community?
A single story is whenever some is a stereotype to someone else, and assumes that person's personality to be like the rest like his race or nationality. For example, one person takes a look at a African American, that person sees the subject's appearance the African American is sagging, and has a negative face, this is where the person thinks bad about the African American. First thing that comes in mind is that the African American guy will commit a crime just like the rest of the African Americans. But just because he looks like that doesn't mean he's a dangerous person. He/she could be respectful.

2.Describe a single story you have heard told about your community. What is missing from that story? How could people learn more about that community?
I've heard from my friend from Iraq that he would get beat up in the streets only because the way he looked and where he came from. The thing that was missing in that story is that things haven't changed a lot like he was expecting. So the suggestion I have for him is to show the community who he is and his actual personality.

A New Year

So far this school, has been "ok'. I like the fact that the teachers are like snowflakes, each is unique in many ways. my expectations are that teachers to have a very eclectic way of teaching us. So far things are what I've expected. One thing I disliked is the traffic jam in our school. Because of that, it's harder to make it to class on time. I still think they should improve lunch, the food is a little unhealthy. Another thing I dislike is schedule change. Since there was many errors with us the students schedules, we had to wait for our new and improved schedules. That held us back a little. One thing that I really like is that we'll be having sports, and seasons. Also i'm hoping for extra curricular activities like guitar classes. But like I said this school has improved.

Forks over Knives

1. What do you think this documentary will be about?
I think that this documentary is going to be about eating healthier, and facts about junk food.


2.What do you think the title implies or indicates about the film?
I think the fork represents a small portion of something healthy while the knives represents something large and unhealthy.


Majority of the Americans today face deceases, like diabetes. Many citizens die each year by causes of the food we eat. Today 1 out of 4, 4 year old kids are exaggerated obese.
People that are obese can get heart attacks which are caused by a blockage in the artillery. Once there is a blockage  blood can not flow to the heart, the result, a heart attack. So in order to prevent a heart attack, surgeons replace that artillery with another, which is known as the bypass surgery. This allows the blood to travel. During Norway, Germans occupied all meat and diary, which caused mortality rate to decrease dramatically, but later it increased since war stopped.

Final Playable Game

 Alpha Dogs.
A Man's Honor, A Man's Misery.
Fight to go home, and forget about the war.
The Learning goal is the Battle of the Bulge.
The will learn the purpose of the Battle of the Bulge.
I'd like to make few changes to the game, like add questions for the audience to answer, and patch glitches in the game just to make it a little more challenging.
The hard part about my game is were we put the levels together and adding buttons.

Respect

Respect is a word that basically represents every word there is that makes someone feel good. When you treat someone with respect you are a descent person that cares about others. Respect cannot be seen or touched, but it can be felt, and noticed. People whom have respect are really hard to find. Respect has endless definitions, each describes part of it. Respect should be used everyday, everywhere, specially on the ones we don't get along with.
