Abby Muller commented on Justin Park's blog post Commercials.. You love them or you hate them."I don't like commercials when i'm trying to watch tv but sometimes i'll get sit down and watch and infomercial and be so entertained by it although i have no idea why."
Joaquin Zuniga commented on Justin Park's blog post War & WWIII?"I don't think WWIII will happen anytime soon, not at least with the technology we have at the moment. Our ability to kill has jumped incredibly for the last world war, excluding the atomic bomb. Modern warfare is so drastically…"
Justin Park commented on sabrina nash's blog post Osama is dead...let's see the pictures?"I understand why people would feel the need to see the photos, but then again I dont see why the gov would lie about his death. If the photos were released then it would only cause more problems than ease them. I think Obama made the smart decision."
Keely Ward commented on Justin Park's blog post Commercials.. You love them or you hate them."I really don't like commercials. I can deal with commercials the first few times I see them, but when commercials are overplayed it makes me want to stop watching. Recording television has made it so much less annoying to watch TV!"
JohnPaulus V Arcangel commented on Justin Park's blog post War & WWIII?""War has changed. It's no longer about nations, ideologies or ethnicity. It's an endless series of proxy battles, fought by mercenaries and machines. War, and its consumption of life, has become a well-oiled machine. War has changed.…"
Justin Park commented on Lauren Olson's blog post P-R-O-M"PROM is one hell of a pain. After going to the most recent one it was a really big hassle but fun. From the guys view its not that much trouble comparing to what girls have to do so i shouldnt even be complaining. It probably is an important…"
Justin Park commented on Ben Perkins's blog post Summer Fever"I AM CRAVING BAD FOR THE SUMMER. Haha I believe that it is a big mistake for teachers to cram up students before the end of the year because its just begging us to screw up and mess up our grades a little bit. I am dying in class now from trying to…"
Justin Park commented on Mike Artov's blog post EVERYONE! WE SURVIVED THE RAPTURE!"I think all these rumors are complete crap. I believe it is just annoying to hear about all this nonsense that never turns out to be true. When 2012 comes around ill be living life alive and well while people freak out about the end of the world yet…"
Ashlyn Jensen commented on Justin Park's blog post Commercials.. You love them or you hate them."The only time i watch commercials is late at night, when there is absoloutley nothing else on, but infomercials for absoloutley rediculous things, now those commercials are funny. But yeah, I mean I guess sometimes you can stumble across the…"
Justin Park commented on Lauren Andersen's blog post Year-Round School: the modern school of today"We should switch systems because of all the benefits you just listed. Plus It wouldnt get us out of zone like the long summer break does to students. I believe that adopting this new modern day system would benefit everyone."
Justin Park commented on Alanna Krivanek's blog post Video Games or Outdoor Games?"Technology is truely making us unhealthy and causing us to develop bad habits. Soon we'll be just a bunch of obeise people living off of technology like in that movie Wall-E. People should change their habits but the question is how?"
Justin Park commented on Connor Bieda's blog post College..Ready or Not?"I Honestly do not know what my plan is for college and I have been trying to avoid it for a while. Most teens truely are not ready for college. Thankfully there is so many different options and plans to choose from, but then again that could just…"
Justin Park commented on Halle Gitelson's blog post Summer Jobs"My dad has the you dont need a job view. I think having a summer job is helpful money wise to the average teen, but it does mean having responsiblities and for some kids over the summer it is the last thing they want. I think teens should enjoy the…"

Justin Park commented on Ben Luke's blog post College, Man"College. I agree with you on everything Ben. It really stinks knowing that we cant have the old fun when we were kids. Im having trouble looking at colleges and stuff, but hey you're right lives moves fast."

Commercials.. You love them or you hate them.
Commercials. Sometimes they show you something that is totally freaking awesome or they are just a waste of time off of your favorite TV show. Personally I have seen some funny commercials and some really bad ones. It made me think about the purpose of them and the reality behind them. Commercials are generally aimed at the emotions that the public (you) have. They mainly appeal to the public through emotions such as happiness, intelect, humor, and every man's…

War & WWIII?
War. It is one hell of a big deal to our country not only in the past, but as well as the future. War is the constant topic that politicians and protesters talk about. You can't escape it! Even the most popular games out there have to do something with war! Take chess, risk, or even any videogame! Why are some of us entertained by warr? Others scared or against? America was born out of war, andd really has been involved with them for the longest time! I'm not advocating for world peace here,…

Will gaming change or influence the future?
The video game industry has been growing in these last past years. From internet video games like farmville, Fantasy Football, and to the very controversial Grand Theft Auto series for the Xbox, games have been reaching a very large audience. Now the question comes up, will gaming change or influence our future? A Carnegie Mellon University professor Jesse Schell talks about this very topic at the convention DICE2010. In the first portion of his presentation he talked about certain gaming… Continue

What's up fellow ningers?! :D Happy New Year! Somehow I ended up on the Ning this morning. Don't know if Mr.Anderson and Mr.McCusker remember our American Studies class from 09-10. Great times. It doesn't seem like this Ning has continued on over the years. What happened?See More

Adam Babcock left a comment for Bridget Babcock"There are many options out there, but to standardize is to tell a lot of teachers to learn something new or unfamiliar... it's a tricky subject. That's why I'd love to start my own school, powered by Edmodo, Ning, etc :)"
Bridget Babcock left a comment for Adam Babcock"I'm overloaded with social networking for school. They should make something exclusively for high school. Million dollar idea right there. Consolidate and simplify. "

Justyna Chlopecka posted a blog post9/11 Skylines and Turnstiles
I'm not usually someone who writes a lot , not publicly anyway but I do love to express my self through art, usually visual art but most of the time the art I make is influenced by something . In this case it's a song a written by one of my favorite musicians as a response to the feeling of horror and disbelief as he watched the Twin Towers in New York go from icons to ruins on 9/11/01. The song is sad,…See More
