School Uniforms
Are school uniforms better than regular clothes? I somewhat agree with this. Uniforms are good and bad in a way simply because it makes my mornings more easier than again you would get tired of wearing them everyday. Some days I just feel like wearing the khakis and polo shirts , but than some days I would like to just throw on sweat pants and t-shirt. I think the reason why they enhance us with uniforms just for the simple fact students break the school dress code and wear whatever they want to wear showing a little bit too much of their skin that's when they regulated the school uniforms. Most students still would break the dress code even when we do wear uniforms so sometimes it doesn't even matter whether we wear them or not. My opinion on the situation still is the same uniforms can benefit us and destroy us.
Mobile Devices As Education
As I read the article I notice how everyone depends on us to do whats right. I know that it is a big responsibility by accepting these devices but I know that we can handle what's in front of us. Making sure we have to do what we have to do to get what we need done. Take action in everything we do such as don't lose it or let anyone borrow it because it can get stolen. I really think it's a good idea due to the fact that we have a big opportunity to experience something like this.

Mobile Devices
I feel as though the tablets they have giving us is very beneficial because they provided us with Sat's information , note text so we can write down important information. In other use with the cell phone its an big distraction. I have a cell phone and i'm always on it texting. I believe it is a big distraction because you dont get no work done cause your focused on your texting.

Angry
You should never send emails , text's , or IM's when your mad because you express yourself when your typing and you might say the wrong thing to someone and hurt their feelings. So when your mad you shouldn't pick up a electronic device.

Television
The role that television plays in my life is that it helps benefit me to understand whats going on around me. Certain things I see on television keeps me aware of my actions what to do and what not to do. The right and wrong of life. There may be bad things shown on television but I think its an awareness on life.

6.Its a popular choice , and it is a special HTML code.

To tell the browser that an "A" should be bold we need to put a markup in front of the A.

It Wasn't Really Good
Back in my junior year in high school my english teacher had assigned a essay for us to write , and me I love to write essay's the topic was on something that I have overcomed. I'm thinkning this is an easy topic I start to write. I explain with good detail on my situation , appropiate sentencing good grammar I just thought I had it all. Next day I hand in the essay she say's "Aaliyah what is this you did not explain what this topic was about". Come to find out I was soo into the topic I didn't stay on topic. All this time i'm thinking I did a good job but I really didn't according to my teacher.
What I could have done to prevent this from happening is that I should have stayed more focused on the topic and reread what I had wrote.

Credo
The legacy on steve jobs is that he is an amazing inventor. From the ipod , macbook , ipad , and the iphone. He's made thousands of dollars just off the ipod. I believe that if it wasn't for him there wouldn't of been a faster way for us to listen to music. I give credit to him because I am a buyer and a member of the apple store. I can do anything without second guessing myself.
iCloud
The advantages are that you don't have to wait to upload your pictures , it's quick fast and easy. What I like about iCloud is that it basically does everything for you. To bringing your photos directly to you and saving videos. I don't see any problems with the iCloud because it helps me out when I don't have time to put my photos on my laptop.

Introduction:
Netiquette is the proper way to use the internet. On the internet always be polite and treat everyone on the virtual world respect. Use proper grammar when talking to someone on the internet. Use icon emotions when talking on the internet all times so the person you are talking to will know how you are feeling. "Cussing" is one of the main problems everyone have on the internet , it isn't good to use improper grammar when on the internet. To some it up Netiquette is just the safe way to use the internet.
Some Basic Guidelines:
1. Use Computer Courtesy
Whether a person is sending an email, chatting in a chat room or speaking in a forum, it is important to be courteous and respectful of others online. Always remember the Golden Rule!
2. Use Emoticons
When communicating online, it can be difficult to gauge a writer's emotion. Unless a web camera or microphone is used, the writer's expression or emotion is difficult to determine. By using emoticons, the writer's proper emotion will be conveyed to the reader.
3. Be Brief Online
It is important to keep messages short, especially when writing an email or typing in a chat room. By using common chat abbreviations or acronyms, not only will the reader appreciate the brevity of the message, it will save the author valuable time typing the message. Remember, keep it short and be brief!
4. DON'T SHOUT!
No matter what forum, writing in all capital letters is considered SHOUTING and is considered very rude. A word or two in caps is fine, but shouting is not recommended.
5. Pay Attention to Language Issues
Improper, inappropriate or bad language may get a participant kicked out or permanently banned from a forum or group. It is also important to remember people from other countries may be participating in the conversation and language barriers may be an issue
Conclusion:
In conclusion , I think that it is best that everyone should use proper Netiquette when using the internet because it is safe , you will gain respect because you watch what you say to people and you wouldn't get into trouble while on the internet.

HSPA Fast Paste Or No?
I disagree with both solution. The reason why I disagree is because when on the internet students tend to lose focus and they wouldn't be able to take their test correctly , they will eventually cheat and their test will get void than no one would passed the test. Most students would probably do worst because they won't stay focused on the test. I would rather take the test the traditional way because I know that I would become more focused and I wouldn't have to worry about cheating.
