Blogging in a college class
Blogging has never really ever interested me in the slightest until i have to actually make a blog for my class. It is actually pretty great, I am able to speak somethings that are on my mind that was not able to be asked or answered in class. This way all my thoughts can have some meaning behind what I'm saying. For the people that go out and read the blogs, like Mr. Hamon, I am very sure they will find loads of interesting things.

Using Google Drive
Honestly I love it. I love how I can just start tying on one computer and then go somewhere else and log in my email and it is right there where I left it. It is awesome in the way how it will automatically save everything little thing you do so you'll never lose another paper again! That is huge when so many hours have been lost due to a paper not being found or not saved. I'll use this great engine throughout the rest of my college carrier.

colleagues' posts about the above issues
What me and some other colleagues have found the issues of not knowing our grade in this class. As of right now me TJ and David all do not know our over all grade in the class, this is very important to be because I need to keep HOPE and also this class is averaged out with my major.

Peer Review
Unfortunately, the Document 3 I was assigned had nothing complete. Therefor I was unable to provide any constructive criticism. The topic they were attempting to begin was about teen pregnancy, I was very excited to see where that could of gone. I also was reassigned a new Document 3 and it too had no work complete.

Writing your Doc3
Writing this document has been an experiences in itself. The document is about my major, Air Traffic Control. Thinking it'd be a walk in the park and knock it out in a few hours, it has taken be about a weeks worth of typing just to come up short and still not have it fully complete. After this blog I will continue to work on it along with all the other task's that slowly consuming my life. But that is just the life of every college kid, life is good.

Favorite blog from this course
My favorite blog topic has been the "Men vs. woman stereotypes." It was fun to look up all the funny stereotypes like woman can't drive and if you leave a man alone long enough he will build a deck. The constrain friction between guys and gals are what keeps us going with life. I think in the long run it is positive to have some negativity in all situations.

Open post
For my open post, I just want to talk about the college experience. Middle Georgia is not what I had expected at all. The people, the place, it's just not everything I ever hoped for. College is suppose to be the best 4 years of your life, made up of hard work, making friends, and finally being free. Really, this is high school with out a curfew.

Posts from your colleagues
I've looked at TJ's and David's posts before and have just liked what they have written about. like with Tj pursuing his flight carrier and wanting to become a fighter jet pilot, witch is the coolest thing ever, but that is a big dream and goal that is so great to see someone push for. David's rambling is a fun blog in witch I learned that accidentally started a business and witch I'm still sure he is operating because I heard him on the phone with a client before! So all cool stuff coming out of my fellow class mates blogs.

Child/adult conflicts
One of the major conflicts in my life is realizing I've gone from a child to an Adult. It's the little things in life that make all the difference, so when you have to start living life on your own and doing grown up things all on your own, you relies you're no longer a kid. It sucks. I'd give anything to go back to have zero responsibilities. That is my conflict with life, is just the age of life itself.

Childhood games
The whole neighborhood man hunt. We'd split into two massive teams and usually wear somthing to symbolize witch team we were on. One team would hide while the other would count. The pool was usually home base that the other was trying to get to, to be counted as safe. The games were crazy fun until that one kid gets hurt and messes up the fun for all.

Using blogging in the class
The blogging idea is great and I love the fact we use it in class. This blog we type up every few days allows us to become more familiar with post professional sounding ideas and or thoughts. In addition to that, we become more tech savvy with how to find our way around posting and threads on the internet, but most help us with our typing skills.

Emphatic Writing
One of the ways to add emphasis to writing is to just lay down the law and be firm with what you have to say. Do not me weak with anything be strong you are on the topic you. Always have good reasoning behind what you're saying too, that will help with what you are getting across.

Role of guns in America
December 15, 1791 the famous date the Second Amendment was implemented into our lives as Americans. Since this date we had the right to bear arms, but not everyone is not required to do so. Now I'm not saying these kind of people are not smart or anything, but I personally would rather have a boom stick then a cellphone, calling people with boom sticks to come help. That's just me, but the down side is, the idiots that buy boom sticks and are not smart with them or have bad intentions. So in the history of America the role of the gun has been a great help for defending and protection, and everything in-between.

Conflict with someone in my family
My sister is the best sister you could ask for. She's funny, smart, and just makes everyone smile. The only problem is that she is my sister. We could start a fire with the heated arguments we've had. Mostly over silly dumb stuff that shouldn't be a big problem! We managed to solve most of our problems.

Changing relationship with my family
Just like in, Brad Manning's article, I too had a pretty physical relationship with my father. We used to play wrestle and see who could make the other tap out. I always lost, every time. Same as Brad and his father were like in arm wrestling. except when I had the chance to beat my father I did. Now I he has back problems because of that but it was worth it. I'm still very close to my father.

Best info learned about my Wikipedia topic
what i learned from my Wikipedia topic, (Air Traffic Control) is that the first man ever told be a controller was Archie League, in the 1920's. Shortly after that the first tower was created to help ensure the safety of aircraft arriving to the runway. This was all the building blocks of what we have today and that's why this is the best information I've learned from my wiki article.

Posts from colleagues
I was looking though TJ's blog and i saw that he wants to "Fly fighter jets for a Special Operations Squadron" and I think that is the coolest thing ever! Another guy that's got some interesting stuff going is Arnolds rambling where says he "accidentally got into the auto repair business" That's crazy that he accidentally started a business.

An effective introduction my Article
To make the intro to the wiki article you've got to follow the rules. Have the first phrase bold followed by all of your information. Most of the things put into the wiki will be hyper links to other pages maybe helping explain what that particular item is or was about. All in all just be factual and helpful. Don't waste the readers time.

About what I've learned about my Wikipedia topic
I decided to use Air Traffic Control as my project since that is my major. What I've learned most about this so far has been in the class room. The first thing we really covered in the class was the history of the FAA and Controllers, so this'll come easy hopefully and have this project come together smoothly.

Finding humor in a strange situation
Usually when something less than pleasant happens the normal reaction is one of two. You help that person, or you laugh at that dork for doing something stupid, then help them. Have you ever seen a movie where in the middle of an tense situation and someone just busts out laughing? That happened in the new Avengers movie but if you think with a twist you'll be able to see the humor in anything, even dark, strange situation.

Organization of Wikipedia article
My article is going to be over Air Traffic Control and I've researched the page and it says the article needs help. So I'm going to help it by fixing the areas that need it and provide answers to some things that are not answered. I'll also help with the lack of history provided and other interesting things.

Men & Woman stereotypes
All men are pigs, woman can't drive, men get paid more, make me a sandwich blah. This kinda bull is what not one gets along, everyone looks down on each other. Maybe true that most of the stereotypes are right but also maybe wrong so why can't we all just get along.

My Wikipedia topic
It's not the easiest task to find a topic that hasn't already been beaten to death on Wikipedia. My original idea was to edit a document about Air Traffic Control, but after some research I've found that this topic too has have loads done to it and not sure I could much more to this, so I may be changing my topic here pretty soon.

Sloppy vs Neat people
Its not really what you think. when we say someone is sloppy it is usually an insult but really just referring to how they handle tasks. Another point is the moral stand point from neat and sloppy people and that sloppy people tend to have more morals and neat people are actually lazier and meaner then sloppy.
Monday, September 21, 2015
Wiki Topic
My topic will be about Air Traffic Controller and Tower Control/Radar. It will not be the most interesting thing to read about, but it is a very intense and exciting job to actually do. Also the pay not bad, so ill be doing more research into this and providing knowledge to all.

Same sex marriage
In The Brief Bedford Reader the passage "What's wrong with gay marriage?" is the typical article that strives to get everyone else on the bandwagon about Homo marriage. It has great points, sounds professional ,and the writing is good. As usual a passage of this nature will bashes on religion find loop hole in the system, to try wiggle around and find things that contradict. One of the loop holes found with gays is the "love is love" statement most everyone is pleading, what is stopping a man from marring a man, well nothing because it is legal now. What is stopping stopping a man from marring a child, well its against the law to do that, but why? If it was true love then why is that not allowed?

Doc1 Thesis
How we handled our Doc 1 Thesis was just by getting all of our group members online and typing it out. it really just fell into place with all three of us typing and making corrections to each other and adding and taking away things that were not needed in the paper. This made the processes amazingly easy for us to complete in just a few nights of communicating and working thing out to make the paper run smooth and sound professional.

Handling a reader in my Doc1
In our Doc one we have to let our class peers read our paper to let a 3rd party to offer advice for improvement. In the google Docs we are able to actually go into another groups paper and leave comments, but not to actually edit the paper, just comment. The only other reader you'll have on the paper is the teacher. So we will have to impress every reader.

How you handle a reader in Wikipedia
The reader will be the judge of your work whenever you edit anything on Wikipedia. They will see if what you have to say sounds educated and professional. As an editor, you don't relies how import it is to no make yourself in anyway look bad when editing, because the reader of that wiki page will be soaking up all that information that you've put down. So be smart with what you post so you keep the reader and you happy.

Our topic is the one everyone has received witch is online professionalism. Keeping all of your social media post clean, like what you post, who you post to, also whom your online crowd is associated with. This is very important today because our future employers will be looking to see what kind of person you are but what your online social life looks like.

Writing as a tool
Most everyone has wrote something in their life. The purpose behind them writing is to use it as a tool for something. In most cases it is a tool for a student to complete his/her assignment, where in the real world it is used for: sharing, communicating and doing importation documents

Wiki
Learning to edit for Wikipedia is not as hard as you think. You me and literately anyone can edit a wiki page. You just click "edit" type about your topic and then "save" its that easy! But we always have to be carful of what you post seeing as you have to power to change anything. So be smart and have fun with it.
How I learn to write
How I've always learned to write was just by sitting down and doing the very little amount that was required to get by. I've never been a huge fan of writing, honestly I'd rather do any other subject rather than that. So for so irony my mother is a lit teacher and helps college students with writing and what not and people ask me why I'm not that great at it. They say the apple usually doesn't fall far from the tree, in this case for writing purposes, my apple was run over by a lawn mower.

Online Profile
The Doc 1 Topic is about the dangers of posting things to the internet and the real life effects this virtual world can have on your real one. In my group we have already discussed how very real things can change because of a slip on the web. We are just trying to make your online profile a more appealing and professional to others.
