blogger capstone project hours #1

Today is December 8^th 2012

This week: 1 hour

Running total of hours 6

Today I did my very first video game design. The class is in a small building not that much of a student about 4 people in it. Greg the founding father of the class told us that the class would take 8 weeks. And in those 8 weeks we will learn how to create a custom character and building. And he will give us homework that will take some of our time.

Between my works I encounter some problems not that much of the problems just coloring my block for my character.

The next step is to create a background blocks for our level.

Fiscal Cliff

    Republican and Democratic party both have different opinion in “Fiscal Cliff” each party have different answer every time media ask them about it. Both party use sources from different people who study Deficit and budgeting. Many people consider both party as ignorant for this problem, because each party don’t know their position on the problem the “fiscal cliff” bring to them.

      Republican and fiscal cliff. Republican Party saw solution to solve the problem brought by fiscal cliff. As the housing boom increases, credit number also increases many; the party considers that in order to avoid fiscal cliff, there should be a tax increases, and federal spending cuts. Many people saw as a bad idea because of tax increases and others consider this as the worse idea also because of tax increase. But my opinion about this is very conservative because I don’t want a tax increase this will probably put me to debt.

      Democratic and fiscal cliff. Democratic Party solution for fiscal cliff is that they want to restrain the tax, but many people still worry about this because tax restrain would probably increase the food prices and other life necessity. For my own opinion I would probably be still on the conservative side because I still don’t want to restrain taxes.

       Many people still have problems with fiscal cliff, and this December we will find our answer for this problem, because economy still shaken up about this issue and federal government are doing the best they can to prevent tax increase, and to make sure our society is going to be better.
        to find my answer I use my main search engine Google to look for my answer. in order to narrowed down my answer i make sure I typed in fiscal cliff with semi colon in it. and it brought me to this page were the answer I am looking for is not there. but this time i added government deficit by using AND in it. and it gave me this website were i can find my answer,  http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/DC-Decoder/2012/1129/Fiscal-cliff-reality-check-Are-US-taxes-low-or-high-video.

Starwars episode 3 fallen hero

             

        “ Star Wars Episode 3 Revenge of the Sith” by George Lucas. Talks about hero becoming a fallen hero base of the decision he make during his journey. Anakin Skywalker a young Jedi knight, and apprentice of Obi Wan Kenobi made a fatal flaw decision that will change his fate forever. Anakin Skywalker is a fallen hero, he became a fallen hero by disobeying orders of the Jedi council, looking for a power to save his wife, and having dreams of the future before it happens.

           Firs of all, before Anakin Skywalker became a fallen hero he had to be a hero. During the first two episodes of “Star wars” Anakin is consider a chosen one. Hero that can bring balances to the force and end the clone wars. But all of this change by doing a fatal decision that can lead to his downfall. For example, Anakin was having a dream about Padme dying after giving birth, therefore he seek a way to prevent this from happening by finding a way beyond the Jedi Knight power to protect and save Padme from dying. This shows that Anakin will do everything even going beyond the border of the force to save the one he love from dying and not make the same tragedy about what happen to his mother who he foresaw the death of her before it happens.

          Another fatal flaw decision that Anakin made during his journey that also led to his downfall was his lust for power. In order to save his wife Anakin is looking for power to save his wife and the only way to do that was to learn the way of the dark side of the force. Anakin still refuses to learn this because he is Jedi knight, but this is the only way to save Padme from dying because this is what he believed and the only way to save her.

          Finally, one of the biggest fatal decision Anakin made was disobeying the order of the Jedi Knights. When Anakin found out that the chancellor was the sith lord he told to his masters that the sith lord is already inside their nation senate, therefore all of the Jedi went to palace and arrest the chancellor, but when Mace Windu told Anakin that he needs to go back because this does not concern him anymore Anakin refuses. When Anakin saw Palpatine pine down by Mace Windu, Anakin cut off his hand and Palpatine killed him. Anakin regretted this but in the end he joint Palpatine and move to the dark side of the force. He is now second in command of the clones army and march in the Jedi Temple were he need to kill every Jedi even Kids.

           In the end, Anakin lust for power and selfishness need just to save Padme resulted in his downfall, because of this he annihilate every Jedi in the galaxy and put the sith lord in the throne to lead. Because of his free will Anakin is consider as a fallen hero and faith didn’t do anything to him, in the end after being defeated by Obi wan and left for dead. Anakin returned as lord Vader in his full body armor. And the only way to redeemed himself was to die protecting Luke against Palpatine.

       

propositions 2012

           Proposition is about how people will be able to benefit from the government law. For example income tax most of the propositions are stated about taxes of the people and how government or public business will be able to benefit from this. Other propositions are stated from the people who have criminal records or insurance records. Some people think that they will benefit from the entire proposition because of what they belief others consider proposition as an excuse of the government to get more money from the people.

           Proposition that I found most appealing to me is proposition 34. Proposition 34 talks about death penalty, putting criminal who commit murder more than once be put to death by the government. This proposition is very important to me because many nations all over the world already banned death penalty to their country. Other country like china, north Korea and probably Russia, still uses death penalty and lets not forget United States who had the most number of death penalty given to many inmates who commit murder. Preposition 34 wants to deliberately banned death penalty to U.S. the pros and cons for death penalty. The cons, death penalty is not free, the cause of death penalty is more than $500. Why? Because the procedure for doing the death penalty is expensive enough for itself like the medicine that they using to kill the inmates. The drug that they using to kill the inmates spoils after use, and it can only both from other country. But the problems are that the country where we buying the drug to kill the prisoners are now not selling it therefore it will be hard to kill the inmates. The pros for this is that when the government banned death penalty therefore the government will have enough money to help poor and they will not need to worry about how to kill the inmates.

          If I were allowed to vote I will vote, but for now I am not allowed to vote because I am not a citizen of the United States yet. I know voting is very important to this country because people have a say to government, therefore if you don’t vote you are just telling the government that they can do what they want, remember if you don’t vote you don’t count.      

my life back in the middle age

                                                              my middle age life         

          Based on what I read about the Canterbury tales, life back in the middle age was hard. The reason for this, tyranny of the king spread all over the kingdom. Especially imposing high taxes that ordinary worker can’t pay. In the story of the Canterbury tales many people especially church official invent stuff about their enemy. Living during the middle age will be very hard for me because the government was in the stage of monarchy, were only one ruler take control of every aspect of our life.

       If I am living in the middle age the location of my place will be in the southern tip of Europe. I am living under the roof of King Salazar. King Salazar a great leader was he put his people needs rather than his own needs. I am one of his strongest and honorable knight. Everyday the challenge that I face is teaching square about the code of the knight, and helping set up a barricade for our defenses outside the kingdom for farmers. I don’t have any family the only family that I have are the people and the king itself. I feel the world around me is full of corrupted people and full of tyranny of the monarchy. Diseases are our kingdom primary problem. Many people are dying in high number. Right now our main objective is to clean the kingdom and killing all the rats the bring this plague. Our doctors and other medical people are trying finding a cure for this plague. I took a military training for three years and I am still going even though I am second in command in the army I still doing my training with my students. I value my kingdom and the king more because they are the one who change my stars in the sky, and I will protect them with my life. My moral is very simple don’t ever rebel, if you have problem talk to someone who can understand you. The plans I have for the future is make sure that people should follow king Salazar rule that everyone are equal no less no more and there should be a strong standing leader to govern and protect the people right.

          Middle age is full of many fantasies the people from the future invented, like dragons and wizard. I believe that they have a good life not caring about a thing. But this was changed when the bubonic plague swept truth out Europe, and kills more than a thousand people, but with the help of advances we are able to survive any hardship the world brings.

"American Dream"

                  The “American Dream” is the dream that everyone wants. Having a new car, house, and money. But achieving the “American Dream” will not be easy to achieve, because problems prevent us from achieving this dream. Colleges, tuition fee, and job are the problems of many teens facing today, even technology makes people crazy, if there are not log in every minute. But achieving the so called “American Dream” is pretty far away to be grabbing by the youth hand. Therefore, this will be a challenge for me because there are so many things you have to do before achieving this so called dream. Face obstacle that only you can surpass, before getting a good life. The “American Dream” is very hard to obtain because of all the problems that many teens face today like money, job and tuition fee. I need to get all of this before I can achieve the “American Dream” that everyone wanted for so long.

                   Colleges were probably the second problems of many teens today. The reason for this is that colleges remove people who are not potentially good at the classes their taking. Furthermore colleges dropped people who can’t seem to pass their class. This shows, that people can’t seem to become a college graduate because of the problem their facing in their college. Another problem of teens facing today is that colleges also put technology on the line of success and the line of education. Because technology are booming to society today. For example, in the article of “ I crazy” it said that “ the internet  and mobile technology contributes to addiction – not to mention the often related ADHD and OCD disorder had persisted for decades.” This shows, since technology is making people addicted, colleges look for people who had an ability to make internet as a lifestyle. As a result, many colleges student try to make sure, they had a proficient knowledge in technology in the resume.

                     Job is probably one of my main problems. The reason for this is that job doesn’t come by anymore than it uses to back then. Back then many companies always hire people, even if you’re not a graduate student. But now job hunting is becoming more frustrated than doing homework, were no one can help you when you need help. In the article of “Generation Screwed” it says that “the wealth job today between younger and older Americans now stands as the widest record.” This information shows that youth is having hard time earning money because there is no job to hire them. There are neither hiring nor accepting people who isn’t college graduate. As a result, youth believe that societies are trying to prevent them of getting the career they wanted.

                   Finally, youth problems are their tuition fee for their colleges. Many youth is at brink of becoming a graduate dropped out because they don’t have the money to pay for their classes, since societies don’t accept youth who isn’t a graduate student. For example, in the article of “Generation screwed” it said that “more maddening still, the payback for this expensive education appear to be a clamera.”   This shows that education is are the one who prevent student from learning because of money.

                         In conclusion, money is the primary problems of many colleges, and therefore, they started having major breakdown because they can’t get the career that they want, and as a result, they won’t be able to achieve their perfect “American Dream”

senior problems on colleges!

                                                               Senior Problems

What would you feel if the college that you try to attend to, tell you that you cannot attend their
college school, because you have a bad grade during you're senior year? what would you feel if all the
college that you try to attend to is not letting you enroll in their school? Many seniors who have bad grades
during their senior year is not being accepted to a good college, because all the college beileves that they would not work hard on the course they are taking, and therefore they denied the person enrollment in their college. Seniors are now being careful about what they do during their senior year and what college to attend to, but for some reason, other seniors who have bad grades are still struggling to their cleasses even today. Regarding to this problems, many senior who have bad grades are still doing their best to get all the requirements classes and credits that they need in order to graduate, and the classes that college schools required. Seniors are doing their best to get all the requirement that they need for their graduation and the college that they try to attend to, but problems still rises to all seniors even if they work hard on the classes that they work hard to, problems like not having enought time to get all the classes that they need, missing credits, and having bad grades on the classes are the major problems that all seniors are facing during their senior year.

For all the problems that the senior are facing, i kinda agree and and disagree about college droping down all the senior who have bad grades. first of all, depending on the problems that all senior faces they still do their best to get the the best grades that they want and go to college that they want, but for some reason, college dont see the problems that the senior are facing they only see the other side of the face of all the senior have, they think that all senior are not working hard on their schoolworkand therefore they will only accept the people who do best in their school. As a result, many senior think this is unfair for them, becuase they were being denied for the right education they need. I kinda agree with the colleges on the other hand because i dont blame them if they have problems with other senior, for example i see many senior who work hard and slack off during school time and therefore, i beleive in the problem they also facing, because a good college need a good student, and if you have a lot of good student, and then you have a lot of enrollment.

in conclusion, colleges and senior are still, fighting for this problems and both sides are working hard on it. if the problems like this occur there is solution to solve it and therefore both side will get what they wanted. How about you would you accept the colleges not aceepting senior student just because they have bad grades during their senior year?
