Blogs Affecting The World

I like this story because it shows the impact of what little kids have in this world. Although they might be little, we tend to disgaurd the fact that some of them are prodigies. This kid tries to explain how smart he really is, and gives some examples. Speaking a little cocky if you will, but as we all know kids think they’re everything, he says he knows any math fact, and to ask him any math fact and he will tell you! Blogs like Humans Of New York are very inspirational, from little kids thoughts, to grown ups emotions.

Journalism Writing

The journalism class is asking to rent computers in need of finishing the yearbook due to the breach in the schools network.The school board will be holding an emergency meeting on Friday, February 6th to vote on renting new computers.

 

The system has been hacked and teachers had lost a lot of files , including tests and grades. Robles and Leaguetown Police Department had started an investigation, but so far, nobody has been named.

 

“They have several leads and expect to make an arrest within the next month.” Said Robles

 

Because of the breach, the district has shut down fall access to the computers. With Journalism staff having a 48 page deadline for the yearbook coming up in 3 weeks.

 

“I asked the superintendent to rent computers for my class to finish the yearbook.” Head journalism teacher Mr.Stephan said.

 

Yearbook day is one of the biggest highlights for the senior classes, and to give the seniors a day for a signing party is very special for them. Journalism has to make the deadline.

 

“ It would be weird not to get my friends to sign my book before I go off to college”, “ Yearbook day is more important than prom!” Said senior Roggie White.

 

Has half of the worlds wildlife been lost in the past 40 years?

The topic of this article is wildlife concerns over the past 40 years.

I found this article on a website called National Geographic.

 

The 2014 living planet report gives an index that tracks the number of animals in selected porportions. It has shown animals to be decreasing in population tremendously.  More decreases in the water side of animals, such as frogs  or fish.

I feel that we as humans should figure out what we need to do in order to keep the population of animals alive. If the population is currently dropping, we have to fix it. Helping animals live is more important than most of the things we do now days anywase. Instead of being lazy and not doing anything, if you want your grandkids to grow up with the animals we have today, we have to help them out. This event affects me because I would like to keep the animal population alive so the following line of my family can have the same animals as I have today.

 

This event effects the World by having too much or to less animals. If the world stops dropping in animal population, it could affect world hunger tremendously. The whole world would change because animals have a connection with humans that is very strong. You can either be with them, or without. Animals have a huge role in our economy, lets not make that stop.

A Primetime Psychology Experiment: Does TV Affect Behavior?

 

The topic of this article is if Tv affects behavior.

I found this article on the discovery magazine website.

 

Researchers Elizabeth L. Paluck and others partnered with a TV network to insert certain themes  into popular dramas shown on US TV. They then looked to see whether these themes had an effect on real world behavior, ranging from Google searches to drunk-driving arrests. The study was based on three prime time Spanish-language dramas which have views of around 1.2 million people per week.

 

I personally think that TV does affect behaviors. Now-a-days  parents put their kids in front of TV’s to “shut their kids up”. So when they watch cartoons that could have bad behavior in it, their mind will start doing the things the cartoon characters do. Little kids growing up watching TV all the time can form their mind to do stupid things. For example, some parents won’t let their kids watch spongebob because the way he acts on the show.


This article impacts the world by Tv affecting all people. If you watch TV to much, you could get lazy and fat. If you allow your kids to watch to much, as they grow up, they will start acting as what they see. It goes to example, if you watch to much, your brain will be altered, and think its ok to do some of the stuff cartoon characters do.  Therefor, Tv does affect behaviors in today’s world.
