A girls new photo

I think this article is very stupid and i think it is blown way out of proportion. I don't understand why the kids phones had to be confiscated and why people would be arrested of this. I feel bad for the girl who took the picture but she isnt smart for doing it in the first place, and the girl who sent the picture to everyone was wrong, but its the girl who took the picture in the first places fault.

Man and a goose form unlikely friendship and other stories

This article I read today was about a man who would visit his local park everyday and since he visited it so often a goose, which he named Maria, started following him around every time he was there. People didn't know what to think about it but it was normal for the guy who was being followed by the goose. Maria the goose is possesive of him and wont let other geese around him and doesn't like to be around other guys. They have formed a really close relationship and the man now doesnt eat poltury and loves birds and doesnt think they are stupid like how he used to think of them.

The fisher story was a well puttogether story but it was a really boring topic.

The biker story was a really well written B-Roll and it was top notch, but i really didnt enjoy the soundbites too much.

I really enjoyed the new home story, it was really heart-warming but the footage seemed to be all the same and repeated the same shots a lot.

In the last one i really didnt know if there was a stand up point because it wasnt noticeable at all.

A-Roll “We all bought into ubuntu and that it was all about the team success over individual success.”  Senior guard, Kyle Jonas, knows how big of an impact their team motto UBUNTU had towards their successful season. The motto really brought the team together and helped them focus on playing as a team. Senior captain, Frank Veldman, also helped lead the team to success. “I played hard all the time and other players just followed my lead.” Frank along with the other captains really helped the team. But since they are going to be gone, with the other seniors, the juniors and younger players need to step up. Darin Hugh, junior point guard, said some goals to help the boys have another successful season. “We need to put in all our work in the off-season and get close again as a team.” Come watch and support the buys basketball team next year as they strive for another successful season.

Active Voice Quiz

I did good on this quiz, but not perfect. I learned that when you use a by the... phrase you know it is passive. Also, by changing the subject around in the sentence you can change it from passive to active. I learned that if you want to change an active-voice sentence to passive voice, consider carefully who or what is performing the action expressed in the verb, and then make that agent the object of a "by the..." phrase.

5 Things I learned from the Interview

Five things I learned from the Interview are:
- Green-light questions are open-ended questions.
-Yellow- light qestions are closed ended questions that are answered with a yes or no.
- Red-light questions are questions that are overly complicated and are loaded with lanugage, you should stay away from them.
- While listening to the person you are interviewing you should have good eye contact, nod and lean forward, and say things like "I see" to let them know you are listening.
- Some questions you should ask yourself to prepare for the interview are things like: What do I want to know? What does my audience want to know? ETC.

Irish relish first trip to state

This aricle was about the Rosemount Irish girls hockey team who won out section. We (Eastview) played against them for the championship and we lost. Rosemount won by a score of 6-2 because we had our worst game of the year. We didn't play our game and it really showed. I do think Rosemount is a good but, but they only have like one actual good player and we just couldnt stop her i guess. They are more lucky then skilled, and we are the opposite. At the end of the article it says how Rosemount beat Edina and that is completley wrong because they got killed 6-0 and then they lost to Lakevill South 3-2 so their "fame" ended quite fast.
