The meal

    This was a well setup meal.  The garlic bread was perfect for dipping in

the soup.  The freekeh salad wavered under the explosive flavoring from the tomato bisque. The cheesecake was an excellent finish.

    If I had made this meal I would probably have changed the side dish out for something different.  Freekeh salad didn’t quite fit with the rest of the meal.  Maybe something like sandwiches would have gone well with this meal.

    In conclusion, with a few changes this meal could have been worthy of a four star rating.  Also it could have used a drink though I’m not certain of what kind it should be.  I think I will work on it to make it even better.

HDMI Vs. Displayport
I started using HDMI when i got a new monitor earlier this year.  Recently I started looking to build my own PC however I wanted a modern graphics card which meant anywhere from $500 to $1500 to get excellent performance.  Most of my choices had an HDMI, DVI and Displayport.  I didn't know what Displayport was because aren't all the connections called display ports.  I wanted to find out what Displayport was.  As far as I have learned even though HDMI is High Definition Multi-media Interface Displayport has all the features but is less expensive, has longer cables and is faster.  I also don't have a monitor supporting Displayport so I think I will get another one for a triple monitor setup.



What is The best graphics card on the market/what is my favorite gpu distributor
Graphics cards are tricky to choose.  They cost a lot now and its hard to decide which one will be best for a computer I'm building.  However I do have some experience with decisions.  What would I want to be upgradable in the future,  what might I use this for eventually,  and which is the best gpu supplier Nvidia or AMD.  This means that if I wanted to use this for video editing in the future then Nvidia would be my best choice.  I am quite biased toward Nvidia even though I have never actually used one.  Now if I had an unlimited budget then I would go with either the GTX 690 or the GTX Titan because they are both Nvidia and a lot closer than most reviews say.  The 690 is a dual gpu graphics card however the Titan is a single gpu graphics card.  The Titan however is using an updated gpu and has 6gb of GDDR5 ramm, now both of these cards are only $1000. If you are in need of a good graphics card but don't have the budget for the Titan or 690 then the GTX 670 is a very good choice only for that I would suggest the dual fan version. The 670 is only $370 but can still give good fps if you don't use it for rendering and major video editing.

Sorry it is now Sunday and I am  updating this post because I did not actually read up on the latest news before posting this.  I now have found some very intriguing info.  New graphics cards are planned for both later in 2013 and early 2014.  First and of lesser value than a few of these graphics cards is the GTX Titan Ultra.  The GTX Titan Ultra would be barely anything different from the GTX Titan.  The GTX Titan Ultra is just maxing out the number of cuda cores that the gk110 actually uses so it would only be helpful for video editing.  However possibly the best graphics card coming in 2013 is the GTX 790.  The GTX 790 much like the GTX 690 is a dual gpu desine of the gk110.  This would make it possibly almost twice as good as the GTX Titan.  What is also very amazing about this is that the GTX 790 would be priced at only $1000 being the same price as the Titan but much much better will most likely put Nvidia up to the top of gpu creators for the foreseeable future  but if that alone is not enough Nvidia also announced that they will be creating a new line of gpus for the 800 series.  This new series will most likely be released in early 2014 and very little other information has been posted about this.

Room
Have you ever seen a tornado, if not look it up.  Anyways if you saw my room then well lets just say that 12 tornadoes and a hurricane would be afraid.  My floor is made of paper or at least it is now.  There's a chance that my floor is part food!  Next I have my desk.  Well I did clean it but that did nothing.  Half the stuff is from my sister using my desk for who knows what.  In about 46 years i should be done cleaning this place.

Poem for Two voices by Aaron and Beaux

Taino	Both	Columbus
We wish to make friends		I want slaves
	I see the sea
We want to live free		I want gold
	I want food
	I want shelter
We want equality		I want power
	I want to trade
We wish we could speak the same language		I wish I was king
	I want religion
We want religious freedom		I want you in my religion

Inheritance

“Dear Galbatorix”

Dear Galbatorix,

    I am having some troubles.  Your empire has been annoying me.  If you do not know this already I would like to tell you that on your order thousands of people have been slaughtered.   Your army of over 16,000 humans along with thousands of more urgals have butchered the people of your empire and those who oppose you alike.  

    Among these many dead is my uncle.  My uncle raised me after my mother died when I was really young.  I slew the “beasts” that had murdered my uncle.  I also recently found out that my father was my mentor when I was learning magic.  The “beasts” slew my father as well.

    The groups I am assisting are the varden and the elves.  If you knew all this already I am sorry for repeating this.  Although if you didn’t know that your people were being cut down right under your nose I hope you will be happy to know this now before what has already happened happens.

    Very soon I will lead the varden into battle against your troops.  I hope you will have resolved this issue by then.  If not I will assume that you have ignored me and will end this with you being overthrown and a new society will be created.

- Sincerely Eragon

ps:I’m not telling you when the battle (that is taking place right now) will happen haha.

Morning girl free response

      After reading the book "Morning Girls" I had learned much about the Taino way of life.  The Taino people were who the book was based on.  They lived on the island named San Salvador by Columbus.  The story was focused on two characters Morning Girl and Star Boy.
      Morning Girl got her name for waking up as the very first person of their family.  She was quiet and respectful.  Also she mostly wished to see herself as how others saw her.  
       Star Boy  was named for staying up all night.  He is very childish.  He talks all the time and does not care what others think about him. 
       The book talks about the island many times and weather.  As the book progresses it tells about a storm that separated Star Boy from his family and finally at the very end it speeks of strangers who come to the island.

Lights
Lights bring brightness but in my room that does not help.  For some reason with 4 lamps and a wall light my room is very dark, I even have a window.

Combs
 I believe combs were invented as a torture device to. It would feel as if your head was being split apart.

Nature name ?

I could not come up with a nature name for myself even though we had weeks to do so but, my sister told me about how Erin said I was 'The Pessimist who will never be happy until when the astroid is heading towards earth screaming "Yeah I was right" squish'.

Map Story

    We came onto the dirt road.  There was gravel everywhere. Every crunch sounded as though a tire would pop.  Then the holes, they had been filled with dirt but that did nothing. We hit every hole bouncing the whole way.
   Then we got to our driveway. The redwoods just barely out of the way and the little flock of sheep just standing off to the side. The sheep do not live where they were standing no.  They live currently next to a large old growth stump 50 or so feet from the sheep.  Normally they don't get out.
    We usually get alfalfa and the sheep follow us back to the pen.  Once we parked we got out of the car and got some alfalfa.  Green and dry falling out of our hands as we walked the alfalfa, how could they eat this stuff.  It can be a good thing when the sheep get out.  They eat back weeds and ivy but there so close to the property line that its best to just put them back in the pen.  We walked up past the pen where they are staying, there were more out than this group. They seem to have their own flocks.  I headed up the trail towards where the sheep were originally placed when we moved here while my dad went towards the flock we had seen as we went by.  
     I found the sheep scattered up the hill leading to my grandparents property.  I took them back in groups like when we move them only harder.  My dad came and helped.  We had to search for them occasionally.  Also some had to be picked up and carried over to the pen.  Eventually there was only one sheep left baahing somewhere in the woods.

poetry response to I have seen

Aren't I a Good Thing?
This I have seen poem by sierra told about death and fear. I found it interesting and easily understandable.  I also thought that it had enough description to help find out what the I was in the poem.  I believe this poem was shown from the perspective of fear.  I think it is fear because of how "among the frightened" and "from happiness To fear" seem to mean that fear is speaking and there are many more things that show this. Overall I think that this poem was very good and that it show element of poetry along with excellent imagery.

Never Satisfied

The other poem I read by Gretta starts out by not giving away if it is happy or not.  It does seem to be somewhat happy though.  The poem shows this with phrases like "many people jump" and "deepest dreams come true" also "but sadly it won't last". That makes it lean towards a sad feeling but you can't be sure. The second group however makes the mood sad with "try to find the thing I've lost Just when the search is over I lose it again". In the third group the poem goes to I'd rather be water but then fire as well. The poem overall was very good but I could not find out what "I" was even though it had hints and imagery. I think that this poem was very good.

Both of these poems were interesting. I liked them both.

lymerics

There once was a lamb from ripplesaw,
who always said meh and not bah,
it was all alone,
the meh was a moan
so one day it learned to la.


When these things go all all wrong,
we should be going along,
but where to go,
there but so
we will all be singing a song.


I had gone for a little spider,
but it was one little glider,
then another came,
they were much the same,
together made them one powerful fighter.

rap

Yo my name is better than you,
cause your rap is totally boo.
then there's the fact,
that you totally lacked.
your below me, I'm above all,
and I don't need to rap

I'm blasting the bass,
and the cello in case.
you can try to be me,
but you've lost already
I left you behind,
so make up your mind.

Just quit this,
you'll try but miss.
I won in every way,
there's nothing you can do today.
and as I said,
I don't need to rap,
so I won't.

Lunar paraphrase
       This poem by Robert Stevens starts with alliteration of moon mother pathos pity.  It doesn't rhyme much but it sort of has a rhythm.  This poem is personifying the moon.  The second through tenth line have assonance such as when, the, wearier, end, November.  The final and eleventh line is also the first line,  the moon is the mother of pathos and pity.  This poem also has metaphors.
       I like this poem sort.  I didn't really understand it but that is fine.  Similes weren't in it either.
