Are you kidding me?!

Saturday, August 7th, 2010

Ok, so, about 3 days ago, I had come home from my dance class, I turned on my computer, and went straight to Facebook, like always, and clicked the login button… And to my shock! I get a message saying that my account has been disabled, and If I had any questions to please refer to the help section. I immediately became furious! So I tried again to login, but no, same deal. I went to the help section that had been referred, and I was given an e-mail to contact if I felt my account had been disabled in error. I e-mailed them, telling them I knew why my account has been disabled, which was because I had been adding friends too quickly. The next day, I hadn’t received a reply, so I e-mailed again, this time to customer service… Which was yesterday. And I still haven’t gotten a reply. I’m extremely unhappy with all this. I use Facebook for connecting with so many people, and some of whom I have no other way of contacting!

I think, and apparently I’m not alone in this, that Facebook is too harsh when it comes to things like the terms under which they disable user’s accounts. It’s not fair, and in fact abusive to disable someone’s account, unless they’re a spammer.

So I hope Facebook will re-enable my account promptly, and allow me to continue to connect with my friends.

Russian Troops quit Georgian areas

Wednesday, October 15th, 2008

Russian troops have pulled out from their self-imposed buffer zones around Georgia’s breakaway
regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia ahead of a Friday deadline. Russia and Georgia both confirmed the move. Now Russian troops are stationed only inside the two independent regions. Moscow plans to keep nearly 8,000 soldiers stationed in the two regions.

The Russians fought a brief war to fight back Georgian troops who were trying to take back South Ossetia by force in August.

Russia’s foreign minister stated that an EU mission monitoring the pull-out would be excluded from both territories

Russia’s move to recognize the two breakaway regions as independent states drew strong condemnation from Georgia and Western leaders.

“Life is Like A box of chocolates”

Wednesday, October 15th, 2008

Here’s a little essay about a simile that I feel suits my life(English homework)

For my “Life is like a box of chocolates” project I choose my simile to be “Life is like walking down a hallway with many corners.” Similes can have different interceptions from different people, but to me this simile mean that in life, you never know what’s coming up. I think this simile represents me well because I am constantly unsure about what will happen next, or what will “it” be

Exploring Physical Science: The Contraption

Wednesday, October 15th, 2008

Here is my homework, an essay on The Contraption

I thought the Contraption was incredible, I was amazed at how much work and creativness was obviously put into it. The amount of time and effort put into building The Contraption clearly showed, and it was amazing to see that the Contraption was made with mostly normal little household objects. I beleive the biggest motivation for the creators of The Contraption was how regular, little small things can really mkae up, and effect our lives , I also beleive that fun, and a knowledge of science were motivational factors.

There are seven linked matter and energy reactions in the edited Contraption video. First, the alarm rang when the second hand hit the 12 causing the rod to shake and fall, which hit the standing book down, causing the batteries in the paper to roll down into a small paper box connected to an object with a string. The weight of the batteries caused the object to go up and hit the manakin, like a pulley. The manakin swung, hitting CD dominoes, they all knocked down, and the last one hit a book, which fell over hitting something, and that something swung down and hit a ball. the ball rolled down a set track. At the end of the track the ball hit another ball, which fell off the top of the fire place hitting a blue ball, which swung and hit a yellow ball. The yellow ball hit an orange ball, sending it down a tiny set track connected to a little rod at the end. Lastly the rod hit an eject button on a little TV.

I have never seen a type of chain reaction that occured from The Contraption. However I have created something of this type, by setting up a few books like dominoes, then pusing one over. I have also seen a few videos where a long course of dominoes were set up, then one was knocked over, and the rest went in suit as they were hit. I beleive that most things like The Contraption are worth it, but they are a bit time consuming, and although they are fun, you could be doing better things with your time.

Explosion in South Ossetia

Friday, October 3rd, 2008

In South Ossetia a blast killed seven Russian soldiers, and wounded seven Russian soldiers, a Russian commander said.

The blast was from a car bomb which was blown up near a Russian military base in the regional capital, Tskhinvali, local officials said.

Georgia accused Russia of organizing the explosion as an excuse to delay withdrawal of their troops from South Ossetia. But Russia accused Georgia, saying that it was an attempt to sabotage the agreement between the two sides.

A statement made by the South Ossetian breakaway government said that Russia troops had confiscated the vehicle that was blown up from an ethnic Georgian village because the vehicle was carrying weapons.

School: Contender Journal Entry

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

Dear Journal

Gonna break into the Epstein’s store tonight, cause I ain’t got no money. I need more drugs, just this last time, then I’ll get myself a fix. Just gonna go in, take a bit, then get out, no big deal… I wonder what Alfred’s gonna be doing while I’m in the Epstein’s store. Probably be in some fight, gettin money and being famous. Just like Whitey, and forgetting about his friends, he don’t even care what happens to me anymore.

Maybe Major’ll help me… He could, all I gotta do is ask him… Never-mind, he’ll just take it for himself as soon as we get it. Greedy, stupid Major It’s all his fault I’m alone, and like this. His fault, Sonny’s fault, and Holli’s fault, they all just used me, to help themselves. They don’t care about me either, no one does anymore, no one…

What’s gonna happen now? Will I die from this, all alone? All these drugs, make me feel good, but are they good for me? I hope that maybe I’ll get off this stuff, maybe get a fix. And maybe Alfred will start losin’ fights, and he’ll come to find me, we’ll be a team again….Maybe.

Maybe Alfred will even help me; maybe he’ll help me break into the Epstein’s store…. No, not him either too good to do something like that, just try to talk me outta it, try to stop me. Tell me I don’t gotta do it, tell me I should get a fix, but I just need to get some drugs one more time, then the fix. I hope he’ll understand, but if he don’t then I’ll have to do it myself.

If ever you feel a loved one(animal, or person alike)needs medical care, get it for them, by any means, If it’s way too much for your budget, get donations, sell things, do anything, Make sure you get them medical care, I am writing this post, because my cat-Happy, just died, we found him dead under my brother’s bed. We did not try to get him medical care, because my mom and my brother said he was getting better, but I still thought we should bring him, and maybe I was right maybe I was wrong, but we can’t tell now, because we never got him the care he needed.

WHAT?! USE ENVIROMENTALLY FRIENDLY ENERGY!

Thursday, November 29th, 2007

Some people think that using Alternative Energies, such as Wind Power, or Hydro Power is a good idea, and some people don’t think about that. There are others too, people who think”yea Alternative Energy is a good idea, but we don’t have the technology to do that kind of stuff yet.”That is wrong, We do have the technology to do that kind of stuff, and some people are using Alternative Energy already, but many people don’t know this. Why? Simply because of the Rich people, The rich try to hide this information from the public, because of Money, People can’t make much if society is using corn to run their cars! Simple matter of Fact I say, people need to make themselves more knowledgeable, go look for information more than just what they read in the newspaper, and think more about Global Warming
