1.What struggles did you find while creating this budget sheet? I find it quite easy the concept of it wasn’t complex or unwieldy at all. I no longer felt dumbfounded.

3.Do you think that you have more of an understanding as to how expensive food can be? Yes, before the budget I was overwhelmed with the prices but now  the budget has helped me see the items in a different outlook then what I usually saw it as. It is relevant to the shopping I did once before.

4.Did you enjoy this project and why? Yes, because I have learned the concept of the budget to help save money.

6 Colleges

The colleges I chose were : Academy of Art University in San Francisco, California/Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale, Fort lauderdale Florida/Azusa Pacific University, Azusa California/Mannes College The New School For Music, New York/ California Coast University,Santa Ana/ Central Florida Community College,Ocala Florida/

1.The resons why I mainly chosen these colleges were because some of them are majors in art or music, and another reason is the area it is in.

2.Academically I chose the college Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale because it has to offer a major in music, which i am into music.

3.Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale is near where my father lives in florida it’s probably 20 min. away. So it’s great distance from my father’s house.

4.I heard the the college of Fort Lauderdale is really good.

5.Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale, because of it’s area and has a major in music.Aswell as theres been reports of it being a really good school.

 Academy of Art University in San Francisco because I always wanted to go to California and settle there to move and going to a college there would be perfect.

Mannes College The New School For Music was something that had caught my attention through searches of colleges with a major of music. I haven’t done so much research on this but it looked interesting from its short decription of the school.

Soda fountains contained fecal bacteria, study found

(CNN) — “It fizzes. It quenches. And it could also contain fecal bacteria.”

“Nearly half of the 90 beverages from soda fountain machines in one area in Virginia tested positive for coliform bacteria — which could indicate possible fecal contamination, according to a study published in the January issue of International Journal of Food Microbiology”.

“The large number of beverages and soda fountain machines containing E. coli is still of considerable concern… and suggests that more pathogenic strains of bacteria could persist and thrive in soda fountain machines if introduced,” the authors wrote. They been testing over 90 beverages for any bacteria.

They found that 48 percent of beverages obtained from soda fountains contained coliform bacteria, 11 percent contained E. coli and 17 percent had Chryseobacterium meningosepticum (which could sicken newborns or adults with weakened immune systems).

“The samples were contained in petri dishes and the bacteria multiplied within 48 hours, so much so that they became visible to the naked eye as 300 to 400 tiny dots”, Godard said.

Ice can become contaminated, researchers ruled it out as the source of contamination after testing revealed that it did not contain coliform bacteria.

Soviet Commander: U.S. Faces Similar Afghan Fate

            The commander of Soviet forces in Afghanistan has warned that history is being repeated in the war-ravaged country as the United States and its allies become increasingly mired in an “unwinnable war.” Gen. Victor Yermakov commanded the Soviet Union’s 40th army in Afghanistan from May 1982 to November 1983, one of six commanders to preside over the Soviet task force after its 1979 invasion.  Kremlin’s bloody nine-year campaign to support the Marxist government in Kabul cost the lives of more than 15,000 troops and brought the Soviet economy to its knees before its 100,000-strong army was forced into a humiliating withdrawal. Afghanistan say that the United States cannot win this war. I say WE CAN!!!

Once upon a time a boy woke up in a dark place, he didn’t know where he was. During this situation he began to become very frighten. Reason being is that he is hearing voices. To him he thinks it’s his imagination but it’s not. Theirs another kid across the room. It’s a girl , she doesn’t know her name. It seems that the boy forgot his name. He’s trying to talk to her but she won’t answer,wait its not a kid. It’s an evil midget chasing the young boy, sounding like a cat. The boy running not being able to see runs into a wall. The wall has a portrait of a cat, confused and dazzled looking. He ignores it and continues running towards a bright light. He opens the door and hears an alarm clock. He passes it and hides behind a dumpster. But the midget seems to go through the dumpster. Now he is wondering if he should even run anymore. So he stopped and tried to talk to her. She answered saying”ha i fooled you.you shouldv’e seen your face”. Her voice was changed through a device. They then became good friends and then a bright glare appeared. Next thing the boy remembers is that he woke up for school.

“To be right is not always popular…To be popular is not always right.”

To me this makes perfect sense because just because you say something, will not make you popular, and being popular doesn’t mean you have the right to say anything.
