Riahana Featuring Jay-Z

http://www.metrolyrics.com/umbrella-lyrics-rihanna.html

Other than the fact she pronounces umbrella wrong she is talking about how friends should stick together. How she will be there and hold an umbrella over their heads and cover them from the rain. She also sounds depressed. Her tone and the way she sings makes me not care about her, her troubles, and her feelings. I don't like the way she expresses sadness.

Every time Riahnna sings it sounds like a euphony while Jay Z sounds like a cacophony. These two thing shouldn't be put together. It should mainly be euphony or cacophony. Which ever has the bigger part. As well as the fact Jay Z only got a minute of the song in Riahna got the rest of the 3 minutes. Jay Z is obviously under heard.

PlayStation or Xbox or Mystery Thing

Which one is better? PS3 or Xbox 360?
This isn't as simple as you would think. Its either choosing to pay for your console and continue paying in the case of the Xbox or enjoying free online access with the Play station 3. Is it worth it to have access to exclusive games like Halo and Dead Rising and pay more or to limit your game play by sticking with the PS3? Did is a personal decision and there is no right or wrong answer.

PS3 has free online and you can play with your friends whenever you want for free. Yo can also buy stuff with out ever leaving the game. As well as a blue ray player.

Xbox has better online game play and exclusive games just as PS3 does. You can play with your friends but at the cost of money.

Both consoles are great but what about another choice?

What about a console that can play all games?

Project Explanation


My project is on assassins. Assassins are tactical specialist in the art of stealth, movement, and killing. They deal with espionage, sabotage, and assassinations. This interests me because of what they do and how they do it. How they get behind enemy lines to gather intelligence on the enemy, and how they have weapons that can deal massive damage. This also deals with everyday life in ethical situations. It happens all over the world. Sometime countries will often use assassins to start or stop wars.


My research is on assassins. Assassins are tactical specialist in the art of stealth movement and killing. They deal with sabotage, espionage, assassinations. This topic interests me because how they work and what they do by infiltrating and getting behind enemy lines and how they steal enemy intelligence. It deals with every day life in ethical situations.   It happens in our countries and other country’s. Assassins are a part of the government. I care about this topic because it gives me information on what assassins do, and it is my project. Countries will often use assassins to start or stop wars.

Research

My research is on assassins. Im doing research on how they work and operate. To see what they really do and why they do it. My paper and research is on what types of things spies and assassins do. Does it happen often? Do they do things that effect our everyday lives? Are they around us now? This all deals with my research.

Response to question prompt

How would you feel if the world was about to end?

People's answers.
I would be scared.
I'd rob a store.
I'd hide in my house.
I'd ask the police for help.
Cool. The world is ending.
I'd look for food and supplies and wait in my house until the world has stopped ending.


I think my favorite answer was "cool. The world is ending." I don't know why but it is.
