A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life by Charles Darwin. we liked this quote because it if fact true most people spend hours doing something that’s so unproductive and also such a waste of time an example is modern warfare 3 a lot of people spend all day on it and what takes a guy practically two month to prestige takes a guy about less than a week, which actually instead of playing 14 consecutive hours you could be working and getting money.
if you worked for 4 hours and you get 8 dollars per hour you multiply you get around 32 multiply now multiply it by the number of days 5 now multiply that by 12 per month 1920 for a year and you hardly work at all but imagine if you worked for 14 hours that close to 1600 a year. We agree with this quote because In our point of view we believe life has no value nor purpose if you are not able to create one for our self. I believe this quote is true also because no one made a life nor money sitting down playing video games all day.

Grandpa slammed on floor on Black Friday

            Black Friday is one of the craziest days in a year, and it even got crazier this year. A grandfather who lived in Phoenix, Arizona was slammed on the concrete floor after accused of stealing a video game. Where exactly did it happen? Well no other than the store Wal-mart. A police man who worked there saw when he was putting a video game in the belt of his trousers. When he saw this, he went up to him and arrested him, later inviting him to meet to floor of Wal-mart. He was faced down, bleeding from his face and choking on his own blood. Sad thing is, his grandson was there to see it and will probably not forget what had just happen.

Excel

The biggest thing I learned about Excel was the calculations and that is my favorite part it’s like a mini calculator instead of the real thing. If you choose to use it in life it’s on you and it would actually work Excel is used to work out in offices. Also, it is able to make charts helping you out in businesses, sports data or organizing your information, trying to figure out the calculations. So in real life, it would work’s wish to learn if there is more things we can use it for like maybe for a project or some sort of crazy way with tricks that is might be stored in just waiting for us to find out. I love the fact that it is really easy to use and you don’t need to know any basic knowledge of it example the most stupidest person in the world would be able to use it and in a point he will become a professional at it, I know from experience. No matter what this program is very easy to understand and that’s my favorite part except that it is sometime a bit tricky like it may move your information a bit up.

What is Network Neutrality?

            Network Neutrality is short term word for a simple principle over companies that operate telecommunications network. In short, companies should give an equal amount of fair treatment to internet pages like Skype and Facebook. These companies may be in a relationship with internet page companies. What they would do is make a deal with one to make a page go faster and make others go slower. An example would be At&t with the collaboration with Facebook. Facebook may go up to At&t and ask to make their page go faster while making other social websites like Skype and Twitter go slower. The result of this may be that some people might find it irritating to use Skype, and wind up using Facebook because it is faster than Skype. Not only that, some are paid, or was decided upon themselves, to block some web pages. To tell the truth, it is unfair to the other social, informational, and any other kind of websites because they worked hard as much as the telecommunication companies. As long as this keeps going, the internet might change for the worse for all of us.

Gamers turning from fat to fit

                Have you ever stopped to wonder how some of the strongest men in the world became to be? Some will say because they either workout most of their time or that they use steroids. Yes some are true, but where did they start? Recently, I have read an article that explained where some of those people start. They all started at one place doing just one thing some teenage kids like to do: play video games. The relation between playing video games and getting fit is actually well connected. How? When one plays video games, they are assigned to do objectives, mainly go from point A to point B. In some video games, such as “World of Warcraft” and “Dungeons and Dragons”, requires the player to strengthen their character, be stronger, and change their appearance. With this, some gamers decide to do the same, but in real life. An example of a gamer who change from strengthening their character to strengthening their muscles is Michael Perry. He was very intense about getting every spell right, watching what he was doing, and overall, becoming the strongest while surviving. That is until he relize it can be done the same for working out. "I think that translates really well to exercise and bodybuilding because you have to have that level of knowledge, (and) you have to have that commitment." is what Perry says. So some skinny, or rather fat, gamers you are picking on probably needs to stop. Otherwise after playing so much World of Warcraft, big monsters, bad wizards, and creatures won’t be the only thing they are beating down.

Dream Apartment

If I was to choose a dream home that I would have to choose will be the Esquire apartment at Los Angeles, California. It has a nice view, nicely painted rooms, a place to sit outside for fresh air, a place to barbeque and grill, and a gym for those who like to work out or become healthy again. Did I also mention that they have remodeled one or two new homes? They are lightly colored to let one’s day be brightened by sunlight. Like I have said before, they have an outside grill and a place to relax or have a party. If a person’s birthday is coming up, you can plan to have an outside barbeque party for that one lucky birthday person. There is a gym where one person can go work out and stay healthy or, like for people like me, try to get back into being healthy without going out looking for an expensive gym. There are four types of rooms Esquire apartments have: Room A, Room B, Studio, and Two Bedroom. Both Room A and B have one bed and bath, but the layouts of the rooms are nice and not clustered up. The studio room not having a bed or bath because it is more like a place to work. Then finally, the Two Bedrooms, of course, have two beds and bath. This place is a place for me because it looks nice and clean, have an outdoors grilling area, a gym to work out and a beautiful front garden to run around or to lay down and watch the sky.

Video Game Deigner

This time around, I am going to blog about the job of a Video Game Designer. There are many needs to be a video game designer. The first and most important thing that is needed to be a video game designer is to have much love for video games. That every time you’re walking, working, spacing out, or even sleeping, you should be able to hear the theme song of a game. Companies what to hire a person that knows what it takes to make a game good, and what it takes to make it bad. They need to know how to make a great landscape in a game and know how to avoid a bad, disaster one. The only way a person can do that is to play video games over, and over, AND OVER again. They want to hire a person who devotes their time to gaming. The second thing the companies want are people who are smart and great problem solvers. In other words, there are games where bugs, glitches and potential problems when designing a game. The last thing the companies want in a person is to be able to do things in a certain time. A person needs to be patient, but they also need to make an effective work of it. The salary of the video game designer is $50,000 a year, three to six years is $66K a year, and six years and higher gives you $88K a year. Though, I am not trying to become a video game designer for the money, but to help make better games that will satisfy both young and mature people in years.

Red Dead Redemption called Game of The Year

            Red Dead Redemption, a game that stars a cowboy in a western era is now called game of the year!! Personally I like the game because it has a great story line plus a free roam choice where a player can roam free, a side line of going into a gambling, races of how western people did it, good old fashion gun slinging, and much more. After completing the game, all you have left is the free roam and the multiplayer, but what if you can have more bonuses installed? Now that Red Dead Redemption has a game of the year edition, a few things will be included to make the fans pleasant. The new downloadable content Undead Nightmares is now included, you may have to download it, but hey, it’s for free, new multiplayer enchantments, added weapons and other gear has been put in. If you wanted to play it “hardcore” style, then the creators of the game has installed it for you. A new hardcore single-player mode has been put in. Undead Nightmares has the single-player mode along with the multiplayer mode. The tomahawk has been put in as a projectile weapon. Two new outfits from the game’s story have been installed as well. The mission “Outlaws To The End” has came back as a cooperative mission pack along with six co-op missions that can have up to four other players to play. All original pre-order content has been installed including the Deadly Assassin Outfit, War Horse, and Golden Guns Weapon Pack. A new single-player gang hideout and challenges are available for the first time on Xbox 360. Just- released Myths and Mavericks Bonus Pack featuring fan favorites multiplayer characters and new location to roam freely, while also causing mayhem on it as well. All of this has been installed in the new Red Dead Redemption: Game of The Year edition.

Future Technology

  I Have recently read an article about the future technology, I say it is looking well right now. The name of the article is "The Internet of Things" and judging by the title of this article, it is dealing with our life combined with technologies. Recently, a chip has been made that can keep track of your belongings. With this chip, a belonging like keys, clothing, electronics will never be lost  again. The only bad result I think of this is that it may be visual by other people. Meaning that your privacy may, or may not, be seen by other people. Then again, it is a good thing since many of often lose our things in such haste. Keys and small electronics are the most frequent objects that are easily lost and angers people for losing them. I can be one of those people since my keys are small and my room is the primary place to lose it since it’s a messy place. This little chip can be answer to everyone’s problems and a helping hand. To others, it might be an invasion of privacy because electronics often give out personal information without them knowing. Personally, I do not really care for this chip because even though I am one those who loses items, I take my time to look for them. It gives you a sense of adventure to find lost items you lost before, plus its like a good workout to look for one object.
