farmers market



On may 13, 2010 Shorty and Me, viseted a farmers market in Chula Vista. there were a lot more interesting stuff then they were in the farmers market. we never knew a farmers market could be so fun entertaining, and eco friendly at the same time. I first interview a man that was selling fish. This is what he said:

what is your name and what do you sell?

My name is anthony and I sell fish, and ceviche.

Do you go fishing?

no.

where do you get this fish then?

I buy it from a company called world's famous fishmarket.

I continued to walk throughout the farmers market and i saw people selling fruits and eggs. this is what they said:

What is your name and what do you sell?

I sell organic fruits and eggs.

Where do you get the fruits and eggs?

I get them from a farm in fresno, where we grow them.

Why do u preffer selling here?

So I can communicate with the customer one on one.

I would never of thought a farmers market could have so many varieties of stuff. They had from east african food to food from india. we had so much fun we would like to go there again even if its nothing to do with school.

"We should change the way we live because it is very bad for your health and in the long run i think that it will effect us emotional and physically. The way we treat our animals is bad because we have take care of them because they are what keep us alive. We should also grow our plants more naturally because its better for our health. I think it qrong to grow plants that way because we let all those chemicals into the air and that is nbad for the earth and us. We should all grow our food's the right way!"

QUOTE:
"Don't ask questions means . . . don't bring up things just because you wonder about them. I
mean, like, suppose you're studying tidal forces. You don't raise your hand to ask if it's true that crazy
people tend to be crazier during the full moon. I can imagine doing something like that in kindergarten,
but by the time you're my age, that would be taboo. On the other hand, some teachers like to be
distracted by certain kinds of questions. If they've got a hobbyhorse, they'll always accept an invitation
to ride it, and kids pick up on that right away."
"Why would you want to have the teacher riding a hobbyhorse?"
"Because it's better than listening to him explain how a bill passes Congress."
"How else do you help teachers with their task?"
"Never disagree. Never point out inconsistencies. Never ask questions that go beyond what's
being taught. Never let on that you're lost. Always try to look like you're getting every word. It all comes
to pretty much the same thing."
ENTRY:
This quote stand out to me because i think it is true how some teachers don't want to know that u don't understand they just want t move on to the next subject and try to make us "understand" the subject. When we really don't.i think that teacher should take there time to make sure every single person in the class gets the criteria.

BAD TO WORSE


BAD TO WORSE
By David Torres

“Let me get that for you,” said the servant as he opened the limo’s door. “Thank you” said Rose. The limo soon started to move across the driveway. They soon got to the white metallic fence. The gate opened and they move fast. Her cell phone rang and she answered, “Hello,” she said. “Mrs. Rose, we have a problem!” said the driver. “What?” she said “That is impossible. You’re driving me and I’m in the limo” said Rose. The black tinted window that separated the driver from her, opened. Two men wearing black clothes as well as a mask that covered their faces sat there. “Quick get her!” said the driver. The man jumped up to her holding a rope, “No, stop!” screamed Rose. “Shut up!” the man said tying her up. “Ahhh! Help! Someone!” screamed Rose. “No one can hear you shut up” said the man as he slapped her in the face. “Pshh” Rose fell on her back and lay there helplessly. The limo soon came to a stop and Rose waited for what soon would happen to her. She knew it would have to do with all of her husband and she had. “Get up you bitch” said the man as he blindfolded her. The man picked her up and threw on the ground. The ground felt very stiff and cold. “Get up!” said the man as he lifted her up. “Were are you guys tacking me?” “Were am I?” Rose walked and she could feel the damp air and the wind was blowing softly. A door opened and then shut. The man still wearing his mask took off the blindfold from her eyes. As her eyes adapted to the light she could see that the walls were painted in red and had tiled floor. A man with a tattoo in his hand was holding an Ak47 and walked out of the room leaving her alone. She quickly tried to get out but as she tried to get out it only kept getting worse the knots were well mad and hurt her skin. Several hours had past now and sat locking at the ground. The man with tattoo on his hand walked in with a plate. “EAT IT!” the man said “What do you want from me?” said Rose The man paused for a second and then looked at her and said “Money!” “How much are we talking about? I think we can come to an agreement?” said Rose. We want $250,000 cash in two days” said the man eagerly. “Very well then let me talk to my husband I think he could get you and your friends what you want and we’ll all be happy.” The man took out a phone from his pocket and dialed *67 and tossed the phone to her. “Well aren’t you going to untie me so I can dial it?” “OK.” As the man untied her, she looked closely at him. As the man pass the phone to her she slapped the phone and before the man could react she kneed him in the crutch the he fell to the ground screaming off the top of his lungs, “AHHH YOU FUCKING BITCHMY BALLS!” She quickly took the gun from his hands and pointed at him. “OPEN THE DOOR!” she shouted the man opened the door and she walked out then she closed the door on the man and she walked slowly across the hallway she then realized that she was in a rich person’s house. The walked slowly the she saw man the man tried to attack her but it was too late she had already shot him and he had three bullets in his stomach. She walked around the house to see if there was an exit but she could not find one anywhere she walked for a long time the house was big. It seemed as if she was walking in circles. She looked up and saw a small door she had been under ground the whole time. She opened it and came out I a room when she stood up she saw three men looking at her one of the men had a pistol in his hand an shot her in the head. Rose fell to the floor and bleed. Her husband had found out and they were going to let her go but it was too late she was dead now and they had the money. Every thing had come out bad, nothing that she could do now she was dead. Her family found out they had killed her and she they tried to take revenge but all that happened was that they were also killed. Now money couldn’t do anything.

TELEVISION ON THE GO!

















This 2010 the year of great achievements. This 2010 you will be able to watch television live in any screen any where. this would let you watch live TV without spending money on your cell phone.  Their is one problem to this and it is that it is not as affordable right now because the tower that will be placed cost about $150,000 to be put. Also not everyone will be able to watch because it will only be abatable in selected cities. This will help the economy because it would take workers to build this and people would have jobs and would be able to work. So i think it's a great idea.

ELECTRIC CAR RESOLUTION








I read how they said that were were going to to make cars that ran on electricity this car would be able to run on electricity for four hours before switching to a four cylinder. As you know that if very good do to what is happening to gas prices right now. The article says that int the 2010 should be the year that electric cars come to life. The way that this did not work out in the was because it caused the biggest bankruptcy in American history. Although that happened GM is still scheduled to start building volts in this winter.

My academic goals this semester to get better grades. the way that is that i will try to stay during lunch an after school so I can get my work done. I will also try to get my wok turned in on time so that it does effect my grades. Another goal for this semester is to get school on time which I have already put into action and I want to keep working on for the rest of the year. The way that I will make this happen is that I will go to sleep a little bit earlier so that I won't wake up late or over sleep. My last goal of mine will be to make sure that all of the work that I do is well made and not bad work. the way that I will do this that i will check my work when I'm done to see is there is mistakes. These are my goals and I hope that I succeed in them.

A hero becomes a hero when he or she does something heroic, for example helping someone in need of help when they are not getting anything in return. Another example is when another example is that you think this person is your hero because you think of him or her as a very important person in your life.
The "Hero In My Eyes" project was that we had to say who was our hero and why. We also had to use dialog, sensory detail and others. We had to write about a person that is a hero to us and what they did to be our hero .
The steps that i had to take were that i had to get all of my stuff together and turn it all in at the same time. I did not turn it in on time but i still turned it in.
I learned a lot of things from this project such as what being a hero really means. I also learned that a hero does not have to be a person dressed up in a suit but can be the most simplest person you can image like a friend, a relative, or some one that you just think as some one you look up to.
I know that in my Project I used ownership because every thing that I wrote came out of my head and i wrote in my own word. I also used wonder because I wondered if I would get a good grade or not.

Mysics-Origin of Zero

The article of the origin of zero struck me because the article says that how can the number zero not exist when the number it self means nothing. That really made my think a lot about the number zero.
The people who really discovered the number zero were the Babylonians they developed a symbol for the number zero first then it was discovered by more and more people till it got around the world.
I think that there was no actual founder of the number zero because so many people for finding it so it is kind of hard to know who exactly discovered the number.
what i think that happened was that someone learned it and then that person traveled some were and told someone the that happened and so on.

Humanities-Hero in my eyes


“En esta esquina pesando130 libras, El Gallito del Ring.” Said the announcer
“En la otra esquina pesando 142 libras, con un record invicto, Kid Patillas.” Said the announcer as Mace saw in his head, when he would watch his Uncle Ramon Sevilla box. He also remembered when he would always help his uncle Ramon with his suitcase were he kept all of his stuff for boxing, so he wouldn’t have to pay for the ticket when Ramon fought.
“DING, DING” the fight was on combinations left and right. “POW” an upper cut had been stuck to Mace’s chin. Every thing turned black for a second and then he could see himself as a 14 year old kid training in the gym by his house. He could see him self making progress every day only getting better and stronger. Mace could hear a sudden noise saying, “KEEP YOUR HEAD UP MACE!” Said Mace’s manager. Mace punched Kid Patillas on the face really hard giving Mace the advantage. “DING, DING.” Kid Patillas saved by the bell.
“Bien echo Mace se lo regresaste para atras no dejes que te toque la cavesa mucho.” Said Mace’s manager. “DING, DING” rang the bell the next five rounds were complete black out Mace could just see his past as if he were watching a movie. Mace could se himself doing the impossible to make sure his mother didn’t find out that Mace was boxing. Mace could also see himself running at 5:00am, the sun not out yet and the cold air making him shiver.
“Wow”. The crowd said as Mace juked a very strong right hand hit coming straight to his face. Left, right, left, Both Kid Patillas and Mace fought the rest of the rounds. . “DING, DING”.
It was now the last round and “Kid Patillas” and Mace were both very beat up now.
“Mace” said his manager “Mande” said “Mace este es el ultimmo round, solo cambia golpes con el” said his manager “ No yo no voy a acer eso, yo lo voy a noquiar” said Mace.
“DING, DING” the bell rang. It was the final round now, the sweat on mace’s face and on his body. Both “Kid Patillas” and Mace fought like lions that were about to die. They were in the half of the round now. Mace saw an opening, left, to the chest, right to the liver, left to the stomach… “POW”! Mace had manage to land an upper cut straight on “Kid Patillas’s” jaw, Mace saw as Kid Patillas had fallen on the platform of the ring.

Humanities





Catching the signal from one of her friends, Angela brushed her skirt, took a deep breath and walked towards where he was sitting. "Hey Pedro, whats up?" said Angela with a big smirk painted across her face." Hey Angela whats up. " said Pedro.
Pedro and Angela talked for 10 min. Soon after they were done talking and Pedro had left, Angela's best friend came out of the bushes with a loud "WUSH". "So how did it go?" said Bartola, with a very suspicious look on her face.
"Well I asked him out but he said he had a girlfriend already."said Angela with, an unhappy voice tone.
"Wait a minute Pedro does not have a girlfriend!" said Bartola "How would you know?"said Angela with a confuse looking face. "Angela, would I ever lie to you?"said Bartola with her snow colored face and eyes like two green emeralds that looked at you when you stared at them.

Locker Problem


LOCKER PROBLEM

By David Torres

The first student opened every locker, and all of the lockers were opened. Next came the next student and closed every other locker. Now there were 500 lockers open and 500 lockers closed. The next student came and opened every third locker, and it kept going until 1000 students touched the lockers. The solution was 31 lockers opened. This happened because there was a pattern; the pattern was that every perfect square stayed opened.

This was because the perfect squares had a odd number of factors, and the other ones that were clothes had an even number of factors.


Explanation to chart:


Locker number 4 was touched 3 times by students 1, 4, and2

-This means that it was a perfect square.

Locker number 10 was touched 4 times by students 1, 10, 2, and 5

- This was because it touched with an even number of factors.

Locker number 9 was touched 3 times by students 1, 9, and 3

- This was because it touched with an odd number of factors.
