What I chose for my report

Even know how on my poll status 75% voted for my 3^rd option which was if cats could be trained such as a dog I’m deciding to go with my first option about fish. The one main reason I’m picking my first option was because I can actually test the data my self after the research. The question was “What does the literature say about aggressive fish behaviors in genders?” I’m planning on looking up other authors opinions plus testing their opinions by buying a verity of beta fish genders to put them in a small tank to see which genders combinations will be most aggressive.

3 literature questions

1) What does the literature prove about aggressive behavior of beta fish genders?
2) What does the literature prove about Atlantis being real or not?
3) What does the literature prove about training cats as if they were dogs?

              With in the paper I read called "effects of watching too much tv" written on the website: essay help I found all negative biases threw out the piece. The author believes that when (usually younger kids) watch to much tv they experience overweight, school and verbal performance, and violence or bullying. She uses all negative examples of how tv is bad for the human brain and gives examples as she explains.
              One example the author provides was that she made a point that the tv changes the ways of thinking especially in the younger generation. Parents will teach their kids to start tv at a young age because they believe it developes the brain and mind. As though the author explains she thinks opposite because tv changes the out look on life and how kids look a people. Such as the difference in characters and real people or the actors of that show because you look at that person as the character they play rather than their actual personalities.
            Another example the author uses in her page is that humans will experience emotional frustration because they expect the happy ending that they see in all the movies and don't understand that problem solutions don't come natural. Most people watch too much tv that they get the image that everything on tv is true and will take advice from this. Plus people will get ideas from seeing bulling, harassment etc. and get ideas and feel its okay and right because they saw there favorite tv character do the same.
            The author also explained that tv gives watchers reluctant information or incorrect details on what they learned and think about the world. "Usually people can see dozens or hundreds of commercials for the evening,' comments the author of effects of watching too much tv "which will be later mixed in unthought mess in their heads." I believe the author is trying to example that the human brain cant handle all the not important information that should be replaced with relevant information. The whole plot to the page and all the examples back up the statement that she is using negative biases.
          
           

             Throughout my interview with Charlie B I learned he is adventurous, brave, and sweet. I believe he is adventurous because he told me many stories about fun adventures he has had with close friends. "I have let people jump over me with dirt bikes" states Charlie "and jump through a fire without getting hurt".  He seems like a fun person to be around so I would describe him as adventurous. Also I figured out that he is very brave in many ways from the examples he gave. Skydiving was a popular choice that charlie picked if he had 24 hours to live. Many people would be terrified to even think about skydiving, but not charlie as if he would be more exited to try it out. Plus when he gets older he wants to join and help in the military which i find extremely brave because you can see things you sometimes would rather not see. Sweet could be a nickname for charlie because of how everything he said was so thoughtful and sweet. For example when i asked the question"what is your favorite holiday?" his answer was "Christmas because you get to spend it with your family plus you get gifts". This shows that he is down to heart by saying he loves seeing his family, but is being honest and truthful saying that presents is a bonus. Over all I think charlie is a great kid to be around and seems so sweet, brave, and adventurous.

           My last update I uploaded a bucket list and I finished for what I think is the most fun on there. I chose to do messy twister which was putting paint on each circle and playing. For prof that i actually finished this assignment I took pictures and so I wasn't alone I had my sister and friend play with me and it turned out to be really fun:

This was before we started and put on the paint on each spot to start
  (BEFORE)









This was after we finished and messed up, mixed, and got messy with the paint :)
 (AFTER)

This was my awesome friend that decided to felt me finish something really fun and silly.
 (how much paint covered us AFTER)

This was our awesome day :)

Human Behavior

a) How do incentives govern human behavior? What is the best incentive to motivate people? why?
b) Describe an "aesthetic experience" (Robinson) you've had, and how it has affected you.

       Incentives are a motivation to human behavior such as testing on how the will react to certain things to work better. You would thing that money would motivate the human mind because people would do a better job to earn the cash. Somehow studies have shown that this method isn't working as well as business owners would hope. Instead, the real working incentive that motivates people is stepping back and letting them take over to finish their own job. This is most likely because if you let a worker actually focus they will get into the problem they are trying to solve and solve it a lot faster than they would with someone breathing over their solder. I have actually had this working on me in the past while I was working with my dad. Every time I work for my dad I get $10 per hour which is petty good considering I'm only 15 and cant get a job yet. This doesn't mean I will put all 100% into how hard I work when I'm moping floors or staking wood etc. This was mostly because he is always behind me judging my work so I work slower cause I might mess up. If he leaves and does his own work then I am alone and I get into what I'm doing and I can even pay music and work harder. The motivation on the human brain is actually very interesting and I can test that this theory works.

Bucket List

What if you had tomorrow? Do you believe you accomplished all you wanted to? What would you want to finish before you had to "leave"? I wrote a bucket list of things I would like to finish in my life.
                                                       My Bucket List

Some things I wanna finish with in high school
      * Buy the person behind me a drink: I've always thought that was sweet and Id be glad to do that for a stranger at Dunkin. Mostly because this might make there day and it would made mine just helping them,
      * Float in the ocean: I want to be able to float on my back and not have to be scared or worried just so I can enjoy the clouds go by my face, hear the birds singing, and feel the buns beam on my skin. Mostly because I cant even go past my ankles without getting anxiety and I would like to get over that sometime soon.
      * Messy twister: I really want to take different colored paints and put it on a twister board and play it the right way. Maybe do it with someone close to me so i can push them in the paint and turn it into a huge paint fight and have a great day.  Mostly because regular twister is really fun but if you want to double it all you have to do is make it messy.
      *Pull 5 all-nighters: I've pulled 3 all nighters in a row and i was very cranky and could barely stand up. But those 5 days were spent with either my closest friends or my sister so it would worth the headaches to have a rematch at pillow fights, long movies, and tons of food. This time I want to dedicate 5 days just for not going to bed.
     
Some things I want to finish out of collage

        *Get a job as a vet: My dream job is being a vet because I love animals and the money isn't so bad either. Because I would love that felling that not only did I save an animal I've helped the owner in a way because I'm saving their loved one as a vet.
        *Have two kids: Id like to have that perfect little family with a wife, husband, and two kids. I would have to make a whole other bucket list just for them cause I would want to do unlimited adventures with them like biking, beach, mall ect.
        * Go skydiving: I've always wanted to jump out of a helicopter into the ocean, beach or jungle. I would love holding my best friends hand and jumping off an unbelievable highness.
        * Swim with sharks: I would love to swim with safe sharks that I know wont hurt me. It would be such a rush knowing that live man eating sharks are right below my dangling legs. Mostly because this would be so new and feel so dangerous and I would LOVE that.

Sports shouldn't be an option for high schools

        "The case against high-school sports"written by Amanda Ripley mostly used quantitative writing with numbers and data to give a true and strong argument on high school sports. High school sports shouldn't remain an option to students around the united states. Mostly because, they spend to much money on them, in the long run it is a waste of time, and most of the population in the school don't even play.

       Schools are wasting money on equipment rather than new computers, books, and other important school supplies. In the novel that Amanda Ripley published she found out that by suspending sports the schools could save $150,000 in one year. Not only can they save but they can fix the number variation from each student depending on what they are doing. For example, as a cheerleader the schools pay $1348 per cheerleader and only $328 per student for math instruction. These numbers don't make sense and should be changed by suspending sports. Also, the equipment is crazy expensive because even for then bleachers to watch the games are $0.5 million, to keep the grass they play on clean and cut cost about $20,000 per year, and helmet replacements cost $1,500 a year for a large team. If we remain to keep sports to high schools an option then we will be losing more money than we could gain. 

        Nothing comes out of sports in the long run for students around the united states rather than education for a real job. Yes, some sports will get you some scholarship into schools but what happens after that? Students will be to distracted by football, cheer, or what ever sport they do instead of focusing and getting there grades up. Also by playing collage football or some sport it gets the students hopes up to going professional and focus so much on that they end up failing. Collages are going to be looking at your educational grades rather than if you were the captain of the football team. Good collages will want students who are ready to try there best to get a range from B's to A's or at least high C's. When a student plays to much high school sports then they have a better chance on not focusing on their school work. If we remain to keep sports as an educational part of our school system then students wont be looking at real jobs because their high school teams did nothing for them.

               Even if schools keep the sports that are successful only 40% of seniors participate in athletics. If schools keep the sports and have kids happy by keeping them most kids wont even be on the team or go to games. The majority that doesn't participate gets an unfair advantage on their supplies and outlook on school. A strong part of school is actually going to learn and students are being distracted by that game they have been practicing for at the end of the day. If we remain to keep sports part of the educational system then other students will get less of a high school experience. If we remain to keep sports as an option to high schools around the united states then students are classified and treated unfairly. All in all, high school sports waste to much money, doesn't help, unfair, and should be suspended from high schools in the United States.

        

Ethos, Pathos .vs. Logos

click here to visit URL where I found all my information.

In the paper written by career center i found examples of ethos: gaining the trust of the reader, pathos: gaining the emotions of the reader, and logos: using logic and numbers to reason with the reader. Ethos (or ethical appeal) means convincing by the character of the reader; gaining the readers trust; authority of the speaker. An example of ethos in the paper from career center is that they interview a doctor which makes you want to believe his responses. Also, this doctor named Dr.Kuilkowski went to the university of school veterinary science called tufts which shows Dr.K has had studies, learning, and education. Both these examples grab the readers trust. Pathos means persuading by appealing the readers emotions to the novel; writing piece; essay. For example, in the script Dr.K explains that veterinary science isn't all it seems and that "On the first day, we led a trailer full of (live) ponies down the elevator and into the basement to bleed them out and embalm them in preparation for a semester's worth of dissection and research." grabbing the emotion of the reader will make them see both sides of an argument. Logos refers to the internal message and the effectiveness of its supporting evidence using data; numbers; reason. as a last example, in  the paper Dr.K states that "With only 28 veterinary graduate programs in the United States (compared to 125 med schools), all of which require rigorous science coursework for admission, becoming a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine is a considerably difficult task". This shows the reader some "logic" of how many students actually get successful off of collage and graduate. 

my pet peeves

Hand-Dryers With No Paper 

Have you ever gone to a YMCA or a restaurant and you go in their gross bathroom to wash your hands to find those blow dryers with no paper towels. At this point u only have one option which is to wipe your wet hands on your perfectly dry pants and feel silly. I hate those.

Talking Through Bathroom Door

For some reason my parents believe they are allowed to talk threw the door of the bathroom to talk to me while I'm buss this ever happened to anyone? this is a huge pet peeve for me because not only is it awkward but u cant focus on what they are saying

Asking Simple Questions

There is always that one annoying person who will never fully understand what you are attempting to ask or tell them no matter how long u explain your question. The best part is that they will ramble on for 20 min but never come close to answering the original simple question that u asked in the first place. It could be the most straightforward and simplest question there is and they will never understand it.

People Who Bring There Babies To The Movies

Have you ever gone to the movies and enjoyed your romance, comedy or scary movie then in the middle of that good scene...BOOM there goes off the baby siren!!! When ever i hear that baby crying i just think ''why did u bring a baby anyways cause you knew she/he was going to cry''. Maybe this is just me but I hate it.

(Li-Berry) Instead Of Library

One day i was walking to the library from Dunkin and my best guy friend asked if we're going to the ''li-berry'' and i just kept saying no because we weren't...we're going to the LIBRARY. When we got there he was so confused and i had to explain that he said the word wrong and it was my biggest pet peeve

Loud Cell-Phone Conversations

If anyone has older parents then they will understand that annoying headache you get after your mom/dad get on the phone. My guess is that they don't realize you do not need to yell into the phone because most likely they are hurting the other lines ears. It is actually kind of funny watching them struggling about a simple phone call.

Texting...

Most TERRIBLE pet peeve is when you will take the longest time to send either a really sweet/loving message or even a long evil/hatred message and you take an hour on typing it....you wanna know what the response is? Its k. Just k. You think i could at least get an explanation but NO i get a simple letter called k. So I'm sorry if you are one of these people but you should change that.
