My family.

Well my family is one of the most rare and interesting families I've ever known. The family I'm living with right now consists of 6 pepole including me. The person that I respect and love the most is my dad. He works and works. When I was little he use to work on a factory. Later he entered the food bussiness and one day he achive his goal of not only owning 1 resturaunt but 2. He has always been supporting me and is the one that inspires me to do my bet in school. I am very greatfull to have him because he would give his life for me. Now my mom is the most protective and understanding mother you could ever have. I love her so much. She is like my best friend. She helps when I need it, and she understnds when I want to be alone and when I need someone to talk to me. She is so loving I can honestly say she is the best mother in the world. Now my brothers are the ones that really bring joy to my life. They are the ones that make me laugh and are the ones that will back me up. There is my youngest brother Daniel even thou he is very annoying he is the one that makes me look at the wonders of life and makes me feel like life is a great gift. Valentin is the one that I have know longer we have some fights but I love him because no matter what I do he always forgives me he is the person that makes the kind and caring part of me. He gives me the feeling of helping people and thats why I love him. Now the last one is Gustavo even thou we do not get along he has helped me a lot and if he ever was in trouble I would help him and I 'm sure he would help me. Even thou he is not blood I still care for him like if he was. My family is very united and I am talking about my whole entire family.(aunts, grandfathers,cousins)I consider them all my family because they would help me in a heart beat. I feel that a family can be someone that cares for you and that will help you and support you no matter what you did. Me and my family whole family in Uruguay(thats where I'm from) use to make family reunions every 2 weekends that way we could keep each other infom of what is going on. Now that we are all seprated around the world we still call each other twice a month. Well there are so many things I have to say about my family but thats enough for today.

Earth Day

Earth day is a day where the animals, plants, and the enviorment are appritiated. They usually have big organic festivals. Also T.V shows present some animal experts in their show. People around the world go on picnics and do activiteies involving the enviorment. People hug trees to feel more intune with the earth. Is a celebration that reminds us to preserve our planet. There is a lot of recycling. Every organization tries to do their best and they try to get recognize. This celebration is not taken so seriously by teens. The whole world gets a little cleaner each time earth day comes around. But it gets really dirty not long after.

Copyright reflection.

Today our assingment was to find out what copyrights mean. Well I learned that copyright is a law in the United States that protects the artist composers, and others of piracy. This law contains lots of limitations. I also learned that some cases are exceptional like using copy and paste for educational purposes. Sometimes you even have to ask for permission and present the MLA. The assingment told us to compare some songs. That really open my eyes because I found out that some artist can get some ideas from other songs. they might not even know they are doing it. This law was passed mainly because of the computer use. Is all due to computers. I found this assingment to contain a lot of information. The assingment also wanted me to take some quizzes. In my first quiz I got 90 percent. In my second one I answered number 6 wrong. The question was sort of a trick question because they asked if a word or phrase is looked at the same way as a song. The answer was no because phrases are qualified as a public domain, which means that is public and that is belongs to anyone. So watch out when you copy and paste.

Fuzzy Logic.

What is Fuzzy Logic?
Fuzzy Logic is a revolutionary approach to the coputers. Is like if the computers have brains like we do. Fuzzy Logic lets the computer solve problems just like the brain does.
Based on what you know about binary logic (on/off or 0/1), what is the advantage of using fuzzy logic? Binary logic is just on and off is all dull. The fuzzy logic is all colors it can ditermined that the coffe is warm and the ice-cream is cold. Its like a human and can solve on its own unlike the binary codeyou have to turn on or off. I think that this could lead to greater possibilities later in life. It could open some many doors foe technology. Also it could lead to the making of robots.

More Problems.

My partnerand I were very mad do to the computer. We started to do our project and it was all going well. Then one day we tried to load it and it came out all wrong. The information came out all scramble. It also would not let us fix it. My partner and I decided to start on a new one with the information we had. It worked but we did not have that much time. Ones we got it done we did not know how to change it into a MP3 file. This was the most frustrating project ever.

What I learned from my project.

In my project with Kelvin I learned more about videogames. I also learned how to import from garageband to an MP3 player. It was a tough experience because of all the challenges we had to go through. The most difficult one was when we had to start from zero. I also learned a lot about some tricks the videogames makers try to pull on us costumers. I also learned to be patient and to never give up.
