Audrie Kim commented on Rachel Pierini's blog post Immigration from the United States instead of Immigration to the United States"WOW! I didn't know that Americans were immigrating to other places. I just assumed that everybody wants to go to America. I think it's awesome that your grandpa went back to his home country and I love that story. :D I know that I'm…"
Rachel Pierini commented on Audrie Kim's blog post Humor is taking a STAND!!!"I love how comedy makes politics make more sense. When you watch the actual news its like a mono tone person just saying a lot of detailed words about a really simple topic. However, comedy makes the politics of our nation make sense and actually…"
Rachel Pierini commented on melissa dipasquale's blog post what has t.v. done to society..."I don't know about most teenagers, but when I am watching a show I don't take anything seriously what is going on. I just watch TV to escape into someone else's life when I am stressed. I understand how it can be harmful, but as long…"
Rachel Pierini commented on Jacek Cioch's blog post Does privacy still exist?"I feel shocked. I can't believe they would do that. I think it is morally wrong and they should make the privacy actually private. I now feel embarrassed if they could use some of my pictures on there. They are my pictures. They have no right…"
Rachel Pierini commented on Noelle Lurie's blog post No Technology!?...How Depressing..."I know most people would have a hard time, however, I do not think I would after getting use to it. I mean if we had to give up all technology to live, I would do anything to be fed and warm. It would be hard to ajust to, but it could happen."
Rachel Pierini replied to Gary Anderson's discussion Randall Jarrell: “The Death of the Ball Turret Gunner”"I don't know how the men that decided to work in the ball turret did it. I mean they were so vulnerable and able to be killed. It was probably thee most dangerous job in the army. I don't why they would do that. I know I would never have…"
Rachel Pierini commented on Gary Anderson's group News & Current Events"I don't understand how we are helping Europe get out of economic trouble by loaning them money, when we have no money to loan? We are constantly loaning money to other countries to help them become stable, while our own economy is becoming less…"
Rachel Pierini commented on Gary Anderson's blog post UP FRONT OPINIONS: Why Do Some Students Get a Bonus for Earning D's?"I think the grade boost is completely unfair, because we do almost the exact same thing and don't get a lower grade then the accelerated kids do. I can say for a fact at Fremd, kids in the same class type, like physics are doing the exact same…"
Rachel Pierini commented on Sara Isaacs's blog post End of the Year Craziness!"The end of the year is the hardest part of the year. Because all you want to do is to be outside and have fun with your friends. However, we need to stay focus because are grades are very important. Even though, I know I'm suppose to focus I…"
Rachel Pierini commented on John Miller's blog post The cycle of greed"Greed is what is causing America's downfall and has always caused any countries downfall. If you think about it the great Spanish Empire was broke because when they ran out of gold they had an awful economy."
Rachel Pierini commented on Alex Hepler's blog post Age Profiling."The reason people are so skeptical of teenagers is because we allow them. If you think about it, how many of us are truly mature enough to be taken seriously? Now I agree that a good number of us should be treated with respect; however, all the…"
Rachel Pierini commented on Matt Benson's blog post So, what about the Gulf?"No one actually knows whose fault it is for the explosion. Some people say it was an accident, while others blame it on BP. Instead of trying to figure whose fault it is we should take better action then what is already going on."
Rachel Pierini commented on Liz Dickerson's blog post What's going on in the world? No seriously, does anyone know??"Teenagers do need to watch more news because all we know is what was going on in the past or some famous person's struggle with a new law suit. Without knowing what is going on in the world we do not know really anything and can't make…"
Rachel Pierini posted a blog postWhat Should We Call this Economic Crisis?
When we hear of today's economic problems, we automatically try to relate it to some other crisis. Some people say today's economic crisis is similar to the Great Depression, while other people refer to this crisis as similar to the Recession(1967-1980s). Is this most like the Great Depression, Recession, or something other economic crisis in our past? The easiest way to figure out the type of economic crisis this is, is by looking at statistics from the past. When we look at the rate of…See More

Rachel Pierini replied to Gary Anderson's discussion ART DECO & MODERN ARCHITECTURE"Art Deco is unique, and to an extent I would love to see some forms of art deco in my house. The only problem I have with art deco is that it is sometimes over the top. If you want suttle, you usually wouldn't use art deco."

Immigration from the United States instead of Immigration to the United States
We have learned about the U.S. immigration process; however doesn't America have people who emigrate like everyone else in the world?America is one of the biggest countries that allow people pretty much to go freely from place to place. Yet, usually people want to stay in America because of its continuous freedom, but because of jobs and new oppurtunities people are starting to go start a new life in countries that are starting to become more developed. Especially, right…

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 :)"

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
