What is Censorship:
Censorship is when somthing is cecored or when it isn’t allowed to be showed. For example there are many songs that are censored because it has to many bad words or is a threat to importanat people or is way to racest. A nother example could be if a parent didn’t like what a child was reading in school they could go to the princeale and say that this book should be censored or taken off all the shelves.
Give Two Spesific Examples of Censorship:
-Movie The Road Guanantanmo
-Music video X-Mas Speacial
Do You Think That There are Good Reasons to Censor Things
I think that there are very good reasons to censor things. One good reason to censor things is because they affend some people. Another good reason is so that little kids thst may be grossed out by or parents woudn’t want ther kids to see, hear, or read.
I think that you were right censoring that video because it may affend the people that live in the U.S. or George Bush

I learned that global warming is major concern to the whole planet. Global warming needs to be toped as soon as possible. I learned that global warming is being caused by people and all their polluting of harmful gasses going up into the atmosphere. I leaned that global warming is causing natural disasters to be getting stronger, for example hurricanes like Hurricane Katrina that New Orleans.

I have learned that working with people internationally is a lot harder than working with people locally. Some of the skills that we as a class have to use to work with people internationally are being able to keep in contact with people far away. There are a lot of different tools that need to be used to make this project work. I think that the most important tool that we used was the wiki. The wiki is what brought together in the first place. The wiki is where we did all of our planning and where we kept in touch. This wiki was located at international.pbwiki.com. There are many other tools that we used like Skype, Pinacle, and a lot of other things.
Working closer together would have made this project much easier but not as much fun. If we had better software this project would have been easier. I think that this project would have been more interesting if there were more groups involved around the world.
I leaned that telling a story with all these things is much more complicated, but tells the story a lot better. I leaned that the software is a lot more difficult to deal with rather than a pencil. When you publish it on line I learned that it isn’t really yours anymore. You can’t tell people what it is supposed to mean. The readers think of it as whatever. I also learned that when you publish it online you have to show all the credits for the videos, pictures, and music or else they can sue you, so you have be sure that you show all the credits.
The ITL project was a great idea and I think every class should something like it.

Homogeneous Mixtures:Is a mixture that has more than one substance in it, These substances are combined together enough so that they look and feel like one thing. This can also be called a solution.Some examples are air,jello, icing, paint, and milk. 
Hetrogeneous Mixtures:Is also a mixture with more than one substance, but with this one you can both see and feel the two different substances. This can also be called a mechanical mixture. Some examples of hetrogeneous mixtures are granola bar, trail mix, and bird seeds.

Unsaturated Solution: An unsaturated solution is both dilute & concentrated solution. A dilute solution is for example there is not enough sugar crystals inwater to make juice. Or when the juice is too watery. A concentrated solution is when there is just enough sugar crystals in the juice. So this is a solution with unfilled spaces btween the particles in juice.

Saturated Solution:A saturated solution is made when all spaces in a solution are filled. In a saturated solution if you try to strengthen a drink all the flavour crystals will just fall to the bottom of the glass without dissolving.

What are some tips on how to proofread on a blog?
Some tips on how to proof read a blog are, 1 you can paste your post on word and it will correct any spelling errors, or grammer mistakes. You can also ask a friend to read it over and see if they can find anything wrong. You can also re-read it your self and see if you can add anything more to it to make different or more interesting. If you have any links in your blog you double check them to see if they can actually work.
What is your favourite or the most interesting thing you like about blogging? The most interesting I like about blogs is that you write about pretty much anything, and that you write at any time when you are at home. Also I think it is interesting that you can see what your friends or other people are writing. My favourite thing about blogging is that you can find your own picture on Google image, or Yahoo images and place it on your blog as your main picture at the top.
How have other people’s comments helped you in blogging? Other peoples comments helped me in blogging by telling me how how to improve my blog and what to do to make it better.
