Jumble Story

One day in the park, by the fountain, just this summer, there was a young man sitting there watching a large school thinking about his first days there, “what an unhappy time that was” he thought. Well, no I can’t dwell on the past; I have to get to work, as he walks towards the school he is stopped by the thought of turning around and not going to work for the feeling of imminent doom. Ignoring the feeling he travels to the school almost at the doors he checks his watch and sees its five to three so he hustles to the doors and notices that there is are two unmarked barrels in front of the doors and as he is trying to move the last barrel the bell rings and the doors fly open and he is knocked backwards and the contents of the barrel flies all over him and a bit on a student as he lays there he starts to think of what’s gonna happen now as he blacks out.
As I wake I see people in white all around me, I try to move but can’t as I starts to struggle one of the white suited people notice me and yells to someone outside and twelve large men come in and I start to struggle more and more and then the restraints suddenly snap as I starts to stand, I looks and see that I just broke solid steel. “Wow” I say out-loud and to my own amazement the large guys took out guns and started shooting but none touched me, I looked ahead and all I see is a green mass of grass and flowers. “It must be the contents of that barrel” I though, it was amazing to see I had power over the things I try so hard to save.
I smash though the wall next to me using the weeds growing through the wall. As I starts to pass through I see that there is another bunch of people with powers but then realizes I must leave, as I passes the last cell I see one of my student sitting on the ground surrounded by what looked like water. I tap on the glass as he looks up I see he has no face, I stumble back and feel the need to puke at the sight. I fight the feeling and walk back to the glass and notice he is standing there I hear a voice and wonder what it is. I tap on the glass again and tell him to stand back he doesn’t instead I notice a sort of whirlpool form around him, then I feel the door bending and I use my new found power to help pry the door out and we start to escape together. We then go our separate ways from there.

Four Years Later…………

While I have become what the people are calling evil the person once called my friend is now my sworn enemy. After these long four years he hasn’t captured me yet but on the faithful day just yesterday he has taken me on for the last time we both went in to battle and only one came back out…
To bad it wasn’t me.

My VID

What do you think?

How many have died for you and your families so far, I had counted 118. Many of them leaving behind a husband or wife and kid(s). Why are they giving their lives and why are they there?
These people in the armed forces are in Afghanistan for a reason. There is a group many of us know that are called the Taliban that were first in Iraq, then they attacked the Twin Towers in America. Now we have men and women over there trying to fight the people who did this to prevent anything like that to happen to us because I tell you it would.
Many of the people we may actually know: #5 killed on October 2nd, 2003 Robert Alan Short from Fredericton from a land mine incident along a road regularly used by Canadian patrols leaving Camp Julien. The mines were believed to have been placed along the road two hours before the patrol. Three other Canadians were wounded, #43 killed on 27th November, 2006 Robert Girouard from Bouctouche killed by suicide bomber on bike while he was in an armored vehicle, #47 & #49 Aaron E. Williams from Perth-Andover and David Robert Greenslade from St. John, both killed on the 8th of April in 2007, along with six killed by a roadside bomb while riding in a LAV III (armored vehicle) 75 km west of Kandahar City near the border between Kandahar and Helmand provinces. One other soldier was seriously wounded, another lightly wounded, and two others escaped without injury. They were conducting a convoy security operation in support of Operation Achilles. It was the single worst attack on NATO troops and the single costliest day of combat for Canadian troops. #52 & #53 Allan Stewart from Newcastle and Patrick James Pentland from Geary, on the 11th of April were killed from a roadside bomb 38 km west of Kandahar city. #87 Colin William Wilmot from Fredericton on 5th July, 2008 killed by an IED while on foot-patrol in support of troops from PPCLI in Panjwaii district. #106 Gregory John Kruse from New Maryland on the 27th of December in 2008 was killed by a roadside IED along with two Afghan police officers and Afghan interpreter while inspecting an IED 25km west of Kandahar city. Four other Canadians wounded. #116 Corey Joseph Hayes from Ripples on the 20th of March in 2009 killed when a roadside bomb detonated under their vehicle in the Shah Wali Kot district about 20 km northwest of Kandahar City, while taking part in a massive operation to attack Taliban command centers and supply routes. Three other Canadian soldiers wounded in the blast, all these men were around the age of 22-46. I know it’s a hard thing to think that we are actually doing any good over seas, but when you think on how the country was before we were there, it has come a long way from a dictatorship, mass murders and killings to having a stabled government and little to no murders. Queen Elizabeth even said "to their eternal remembrance, to Canada, to all who would serve the cause of freedom, and to those who have lost their lives in Afghanistan."
I support our troops very highly. Therefore, I don’t have any arguments against this fact, although that many people have died.
So just think of this when another soldier dies in Afghanistan he is giving his life for his country, home, friends, family, and YOU!

analysis of essay

The essay that I was looking at was "Honor Them" by Mark A. on the Teen Ink site. The main piont of the song was that nobody cared that these people over there are dieing for them and they just don't care or take the time to even notice that they are coming back either dead or severly injured. The beggining was something that really caught my attention due to the fact that this person is cleaning up when he hears a plane and helocopter flying over head and acually notices them and why they might be coming back over. The ending is also very well put because they want everyone to take time out of their busy lifes to say a prayer for the ones that still fight and to honor the ones that gave their lives to keep them free.

Fatkat Animation

I didn't find out much more other than that they helped in the animation of Family Guy, which is one of my most favorite shows. I like the layout of the blog because it had alot of videos and alot of info and that they used a cool background of the coffee and the note papers and such. my questions are plain and simple:
1. When did you find out you had this talent?
2. What started you to this?

How to Be a "Ghost"

Have you ever wondered how a sniper goes around usually without being seen or why the soldiers wear weird colors well my friend I can give you the tricks and tips of the trade. This is the how to on the sniper system and the color of camouflage works and the way to camo yourself naturally.

There are a few things to tell you about that are important:
· Sound
· Color(Camo)
· Movement
· Shape
· Shine
· Shadows

To start with we’ll go with how to apply face paints. You shouldn’t think that only color would work but trust me it does.
1. Colors you should go with in forest settings are a deep green, brown, and black. For a winter it is whites, blacks, and grey. For desert are tans, light browns, and black or grey. If you don’t have the true camo paints dark dirt works well and dark green shirts and paint as well.













2. To apply your face camouflage you start with warming the paints if it is the real stuff or suffer a bad rug burn.

3. After that if your using the paints, take the green and apply a small layer to the entire face (with dirt only apply the next part)

4. Now time to rid you of the shine, apply to the forehead and chin and nose small amount in small lines or in blotches either work apply darker colors to the outer part of your face then in the parts near the eyes and cheek apply lighter colors.

5. If you know that there will be a lot of shadows make your colors darker.


The last part is “movement.”
· I will start with what you shouldn’t do
1. When you are camouflaged you should never make any fast, jerky movement that would give away your position.

2. Never stand strait up in is the worst thing to do it is the easiest way to get “hit.”
· Now it what you should do:
1. Make slow, smooth intentional movements

2. Keep low to the ground crouch or crawl if you do have to stand only make it for a couple of seconds.

3. Lastly always say near or around cover. When taking a shot a sniper is always near a tree or rock, in a building they are usually in the back of a room.
