A new school year has started, meaning a whole new slew of teacher as I enter my junior year. I had some teachers from previous years, and others are completely new. One of those teachers is my college-credit-level chemistry teacher, whom, for the sake of the article, I will call Ms. O. As we are all learning about each other, Ms. O. asks us all what we want to major in for college. She did this so that she could later make a point. After this activity, she asked us to do something. She requested that everyone pull out a piece of paper and write down three things that are not controlled by chemistry. She eliminated the options of God and souls, as religion is not allowed to be discussed in school (not necessarily something I agree with). Some kids stated various things. One person used magic. Ms. O. said that all magic is chemistry (because magic isn't truly real). It is all just chemical reactions causing normally unnatural things to happen

I took a look at Apple's website and started reading through the
claims that Apple takes against windows of why they'll love macs. Well,
They're ludacris. I'm going to debunk them.
http://www.apple.com/why-mac/
It's designed to be a better computer I
just want to point out how bold of a statement this is. First, they
don't even state what they're trying to be better than. Better than
windows? That's an operating system. Better than Asus? I love Asus.
Better than Dell? That's debatable.
It comes with Software you'll love to use I love the software I have on my windows 7 computer too. Software you buy is what makes it your computer.
It comes with the worlds most advanced OS. On
what grounds of proof do you have to make said statement? Should I give
you the "most advanced OS" award? I'm pretty sure windows 7 is way
better. But some people mi

Last Year I wrote an article about blowing up the low level mac pro to show how overpriced their computers are. For $2500 I gathered parts together for a monster of a computer that could easily compete with the mac pro, not to mention win. This year, I decided to go a step further and defeat the mac pro once and for all! At first I started assembling my parts list for the top level mac pro, which is $5000..... Too easy. SO what I did was custom configure my mac to have the best possible mac pro that money can buy. It looked a little something like this. - Two 2.93GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon "Westmere” (12 cores)
- 64GB (8x8GB)
- Mac Pro RAID Card
- 512GB solid-state drive
-

Last week in my U.S. History class, the class participated in a debate. The topic was Social Darwinist vs. Non-Social Darwinist. Originally, I had joined the Non-Social Darwinist side, but I realized that, after listening to the points that each side had made, that I agreed with neither side of the argument, and I formed my own third party. In the process of voicing my views, I was interrupted a number of times. Because of this, I lost my train of thought and I didn’t exactly say things the way I wanted to. I made a fool of myself and was quickly shut down by the rest of the class, and the teacher. This article will be my chance to voice my opinion and prove my side of things. Please take the time to listen to my thoughts and consider my views in competition with others. By the way, I’ve been very successful in debates in the past... Social Darwinism is the belief that the best equipped and the most powerful people will survive in a society,

The most discussed topic among nerds. Apple vs. PC. We all know that apple computers don't come with a cheap price tag, and that's fact. I recently bought parts for a computer build, and the computer comes out considerably lower priced than the lowest level mac pro, yet has almost the same performance. I'm writing this because the mac pro is the only mac that's even worth buying, so I might as well beat it. The irony of that statement being that I am writing this article on a macbook. Cool, right?

Wow, it's been forever since I've updated this site.
Well to start I would like to point out the links at the top of the page. See that? It says "Myspace" HOLY CRAP!!
No one uses myspace anymore. Lol, I really need to change that logo to facebook. But I'm Not going to.
WHY NOT? you ask? Well, I actually get on facebook for my personal friends. I don't post links to my facebook anywhere because I don't want 800 friends, all of which I don't even know!! My Facebook is for my actual friends in real life, not for people I met online. Therefore I will Be doing A Remake of the bar that you see up there. I will make A whole new bar for clicking links. I will add new links to it, but My Facebook link won't be up there. Instead, I will have the myspace link still exist, and I will add another Youtube Link.
Talk to you soon! Jared
