Virtual Countries

These are some places you can take a virtual tour on the internet:

 Japanese House
Oxford University
Universal Studios
Lego Land
London


Review:
A virtual tour is a very good thing for people that do not have the money to actually go somewhere. They can also be a very bad thing as well. My reasons behind virtual tours being bad is that people who go through the internet and see heps of virtual tours it is possible that if the person is always on the tours. When they actually have the money to go there, they don't want to because they will think that they have already seen the world and it will only be a merage of pixels on a screen. On the other hand a good reason for virtual tours is the educational value. Example, a kid is in his class and his teacher tells him to research a museum of some sort and the kid I not very good at reading. He could take a virtual tour of the museum which would be better for him and he would learn more.

The best virtual tour that I have seen is a tour of a Japanese house. This tour is good because it is very interactive and it teaches you the basics of why a Japanese house is like. The worst virtual tour I have seen is any youtube tour due to the fact that you do not get to choose or decide where you go next or decide where you look.

Inventions

The invention I found is called the secret electrical socket stash 

The secret electrical socket stash is a good idea due to the fact that you can hide away money from children and criminals from finding the money. Another reason the secret electrical socket stash 
is good is because it is reliable. This is because you can be sure that no one will find the money because it is a very smart place to hide money because people would not think to look there.

On the other hand the secret electrical socket stash can be bad as well as being good.  For example, If a fire starts from the wall socket all the money will burn.

Poem #1

You can't escape me, 
Not even if you try, 
I am something that will cause you pain an misery

You can do better without me
but you are dumb enough to have me
To you, I am your friend
But I am not

I am what keeps you up crying at night
I can't help you, I never could 
whatever you wanted I never had 

If you want happiness stay away from me
You want a family, a wife, kids 
well to bad

You should have stayed away
You should have thought it through
now you are in prison 
I am marijuana 
and I have come for you.

Translations

Explain what a translation is.
Translation is the movement of a shape on a grid and you use co-ordinates and to get the co-ordinates you use vectors.

Explain how a vector works. What does it look like?
indicate? 
(3)
(8)
This is a vector. What is means as that these are what you use to know the co-ordinates and the top number means if you go left or right and how far and the bottom number indicates if the shape goes up or down. The rule is if the top number is a negative then the shape goes left and if it's not the shape goes right. The same applies with the bottom number, negative is down.


Give a real life example of when translation is used.
An example would be a forklift translating creates and boxes to new locations.

Is the book disappearing

Are books disappearing? People say that books in over forty years from now will be a thing of the past. By this I mean that technology will take the world by storm and there will be museums about books and every book that is not in a museum will be sold to the highest bidder which could be sold for over 20,000 dollars. If you believe that this will happen, you might want to hang onto your "book book" because in the future those books could make you very, very wealthy.

People of all ages these days prefer to read off e-book readers, I-pads or anything electronic because it is apparently "easier" that is just lazy. Why don't people just get off their electronic devices and go pick up an ACTUAL book for once.

In my class 10/31 kids have e-book readers or i-pads that they read off which is less than half but that doesn't mean any thing due to the fact that in my class we are multimedia which means that we all read off technology and barley any of us read real books.  

Drugs: Marijuana

Marijuana is in the drug class "B"

Marijuana is a plant with five leaves emerging from the main stem, but when you us marijuana its appearance resembles compost and mulch.

Marijuana is grown (because it is a plant) and then it is compacted and "smooshed" into a compost like state.

People who use marijuana smoke it like a cigarette. It can also be used in a pipe known as a "bong."

Marijuana can cause lung cancer and affects the human brain and causes the person using marijuana to make choices that they would not usually make influenced under the drug.

 Street names for the drug include: weed, devils lettuce, Mary Jane, Green Goblin, koosh, Pot, Dope, boom, and blunt.

 Marijuana mostly affects your lungs and causes lung cancer.

Marijuana is in some hospitals because some believe that the drug can be used as medicine when more people have died and been badly affected instead of it helping people.
