Opera Robots =]
Our relationship with technology is a viable subject for a work of art. I seems more interesting to listen too because we did not grow up listening to opera. This gives it a touch of modern world and a chance for us the new generation to capture a part of the old music with a mix of the future. In the report below the video it states that : "This isn’t the artificial intelligence of man versus machine of Watson (our show with Watson creator), but rather man becoming machine. At its heart, the opera digitally dramatizes humanity’s oldest dream of the immortal living legacy."

omg it's been 24 hours
I am surprised that these students lasted 24 hours without any media what so ever. Though it is not a surprise that they would of reacted this way. If I had to do this I would have not lasted. Why you may ask? Well the answer is simple; now a days an adolescents can’t live without a cellphone, computer or ipod you name it. We grew up in the era that technology made a big impact in the world. We were born with technology in the tips of our hands if you know what I mean. I personally could live without a cellphone because I like having real conversations with people but when it comes to ipod or television I would not stand it. My ipod takes the daily stress away and tv is what I come home to after a hard day at work. I truly applaud these students for even actually taking this test.
The king's Speech
This movie speaks about a soon be queen who helps her husband over come his stuttering. It reflects how she is willing to do everything she can to find him the best cure. She follows her heart and doesn’t abandoned her husband in finding his medical treatment. Even though, this lady has no medical knowledge what so ever, she truly makes a difference in her husbands life.
jeopardy
Technology in the 21st century has overcome a human’s job in literally anything. You name it, you want a maid you have a maid, you can a teacher, you have a teacher. There is some many types of robots being built that their won’t be any occupation a person would need to fulfill in the future because we will have robots doing it for us. And though this magnificent creation has addicted us to communicating via computers, cell phones we have lost touch with the real world and nature. Technology has improved so much that a Robot in Japan actually won a human in Jeopardy. This brings to show that my conclusions about our near future will be like that even a robot is smarter than a human in a thinking game.

art of Nele Azevedo
The arts of Nele Azevedo are Ice monuments. She takes her arts all over the world to present them to the public. Her art is interesting because its like people telling their life. A character trying to be understood and not understood. What I interpret from her monuments of ice is that everyone comes to this earth and dies and the ice and human represent this. Also that time fades away as we let it sit there.
Soldier from Hialeah
A soldier from Hialeah was among three people killed in Afghanistan this week, the Department of Defense announced Thursday. Sgt. 1st Class Ofren Arrechaga, 28, died March 29.

Should parents be graded?
I don't think parents should be graded. They are already sending their child to school, so that should mean something. A child should be the one thinking about their future. Parents are just there to guide them but in the end what will affect a child's grade is the effort he/she puts towards school.
