My plans for summer vacation by Edward Clair
Summers finally here which means no more waking up at fricking 5:30 to go to school. I plan on sleeping in late believe me. I also have a few ideas planned for my summer.
I have decided that I will set up a dungeons and dragons game circle so I can play with my friends on a designated day of the week. That's right folks I am a geek and proud of it. I think I'm also gonna work with the virtual machine program I have and come back to school with uber skills.
Fortunately my back field is green lush and ready to play paint ball in. Of course that might end quickly with the fact that I keep killing my friends with my 98 custom and ghille suit. Also gonna have my b-day party this summer instead of september so we can take advantage of my pool. I may not look like it but, I swim like a fish in the water.
Have a nice summer guys and girls.

NEW YORK — The average price of regular gas crept up to $4 a gallon for the first time over the weekend, passing the once-unthinkable milestone just in time for the peak summer travel season.
Prices at the pump are expected to keep climbing, especially after last week's furious surge in oil prices, which neared $140 a barrel in a record-shattering rally Friday.
While Americans who have to drive will feel the biggest squeeze, the increased prices also translate into higher costs for consumers and businesses, who will be forced to shoulder increased costs for food and anything else that needs to be transported.

Bermuda !!
In 20 years from now I would love to go to Bermuda. Bermuda looks like a beautiful place to visit. It has a mild sub-tropical climate. The time I would like to visit Bermuda is in the winter because the temperature is an average between 60 and 70 degrees which is perfect because I don't like the hot weather or the cold weather and this seems like a perfect temperature for me. Being able to leave Massachusetts for a couple of weeks would be nice.
I would like to stay at a hotel called Coco Reef Resort Bermuda. This is a hotel that looks like a place that you can just relax at and when u step outside you step into beautiful pink soft sand. This is located on one of the best beach's in Bermuda. Also while I am there I would like to visit the Dolphin Quest which is where you get a chance to touch, play, and learn about dolphins.
While I am in Bermuda I would love to go to one of the nightclubs there called "Light". This nightclub is located on the waters edge. Another place I would like to visit while I am there would be a couple of the beaches. One of the beaches would be West Whale Bay in Southampton Parish where there are whales that you can see while they are on their way to migrate. Bermuda is a place I would love to visit and hopefully one day I will get the chance to go there.

Where would i go?
In 20 years I dont know where i would want to go at that time. But right now my dream place to go would be Australia. Every since I have seen the Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen movie, "Our Lips are Sealed" i wanted to go there. The water, animals, weather and just the scenery is amazing.
In Australia, I would enjoy the weather and beaches. Just being in a new environment would be nice. There would be many things to do see and the different styles of buildings and even the plant and animal life. Maybe I would see a lot of kangaroos.
When ever I see movies in Australia I want to go more and more. I love the accent of the people and the surrounding. I would love to go scuba diving and see the coral reefs and the different fish. Also, the city part would be nice to shop and walk around. Overall, Australia would be a new and different experiment.

what if you could fly in space ?
If we could fly in space it would give you so much extra time. Instead of traveling in a plane for like 4 to 5 hours flying to Cali, you could get thier in like 15 minutes in a space plane. It would be amazingly cool to fly in space in general, but knowing that you are saving so much time flying in space instead of earth makes it so much better. If i had a space plane i would probably fly around space searching for what ever i could find.
There so much that people could. I'm sure we would probably have cities on the moon and all other places in space in no time at all. Soon space planes would just be like a regular because everyone would want onew and they would sell like crazy for sure. who would'nt want a space plane right?
A good reason i would search the universe would be for resources that we need like oil and fossil fuels that we are slowly running out of. I actually think that sooner or later we are going to have to adventure out into space in search of resources. If not, we probably will fun out of resources that we depend on and then what do we do? So overall, space planes would be a great way to travel instead of regual earth planes.

Its 20 years from now, and i am choosing to fly to Hawaii. I would pick Hawaii, because i have been to so many islands and they were great. I heard Hawaii is so pretty, and wicked nice weather all the time. I would love to go to Hawaii and experience surfing while being there.
If i was in Hawaii i would surf, scuba dive, i would love to try para sailing and relax on the beach. Surfing i would do because i have done it on the back of a boat with a big wake, but i would love to do it with real waves in the ocean. I went scuba diving in Grand cayman with sting rays, but scuba diving in Hawaii there would be so much more to see. My brother went para sailing and he told me how much fun it was, so i wanted to try that sometime. Relaxing on the beach is just nice to do while being on vacation.
If i was in Hawaii i would want to spend it there in a nice hotel, i would stay at pleasant hotels in Lanai Hawaii. This hotel has lots of service, it is very cheep, and they have a inside pool to swim in at night. They have activities there, and it is right next to a beach, which is great. I looked it up on line and there were comments on the website saying how good the service is, and that the workers there are very polite. Hawaii is definitely somewhere i would love to go someday.

Where would I travel?
Well, first I would take a flight to Germany to check out the sights, eat awesome German food, an do some shopping. Then I would take a quick stop in Prague to see the sights. Then take around the world in 20 minutes adventure just for the hell of of it. After I landed I would continue to the next countries that I feel like.
Next i would hit Tokyo, Japan for fresh sushi (yum) and pick up a few swords for my collection. Also I would see if I could find a Ninjitsu school for some training. Also I would visit the Nintendo head quarters and i would shop for cheap electronics too. Then I would hit China for MORE food and cheap but quality electronics.
Next I would fly to Hawaii (again it's worth it) and hang out in Maui for awhile. Next I would fly to Chile for the culture, also Peru and Brazil. Finally I would make my way to London to enjoy the sights and food. Then I would hop over to Ireland for more food and shopping and of course the sights. Finally I would fly to Scotland to see the Loch and to listen to authentic bagpipes. To get home the plane would fly over my house within the atmosphere and I would do a HALO jump with my stuff (parachutes attached to them too) back to my house and my trip would be complete.

Anthony Felice where i would fly!!!!!
well seeing as how the whole world is boring i would fly the shortest distance possible. This is in order to get in the world record books as the nearest vacation arrived at the highest speed. I would first have to commandeer one of these space planes and from there i would have to learn how to fly one. Also i would need a lot of money for fuel and what not.
i would probably fly to like franklin if i could just to be like "Yay im awesome". then i would take the plane and show it off to people. it wouldnt really matter where in the world i would go. All i would want to do is fly around in space for a few minutes.
I could then take plane all the way around the world going full speed. This would accomplish nothing really besides being fun. When i get to my desination i would walk home haha just for the hell of it. These planes are the way of the future!!!

Current freakin Events
Alright, so a lot of people in this class probably like guitar hero right? Well, the new "game" (more like expansion pack) for Aerosmith doesn't have me very excited. However, the next band they have set their eyes on is none other than one of the greatest metal bands of all time. Metallica!!
As you might imagine I can't freaking wait, this game is going to be freaking awesome. Unfortunately, no date has been set except for 2009 and there has been no set system for it. I also wonder if it will follow the story of the band like the Aerosmith band did, like the fight with napster. My only worry is that I will have to play their craptastic Saint Anger album.

current event write
I am writing about how coach Flip Saunders will not be returning to coach the Detroit Pistons next season. I think this is a bad idea for the Detroit Franchise seeing as he led the Pistons to a 176-70 record over 3 seasons. There are alot of bad teams in the NBA that could really use Flip Saunders to turn their team around for example Charollete, Phoenix, Miami, and Toronto.
I strongly belive that whatever team hires Flip as head coach will be completly turned around and a future playoff team that could go pretty far in the playoffs next year.

Astronauts prepare to walk in space
Shuttle Discovery's astronauts prepared for the first spacewalk of their mission Tues for the installation of Japan's giant lab onto the international space station. The two spacecraft linked up Monday, and ten space travelers immediately got ready to mobilize. Discovery's spacewalkers, Michael Fossum and Ronald Garan Jr., will prep the $1,000,000,000 lab, named Kibo (Japanese for hope) for installation.
Astronauts working from inside will use a robot arm to lift the bus-size lab from the shuttle and anchor it to the station. Kibo, at 37 feet long, is bigger than the U.S. and European labs already attached to the space station. The spacewalkers also will try out some cleaning methods on a jammed solar rotating joint that has hampered energy production at the space station since last fall, and help remove a 50-foot inspection boom from the orbiting complex.

Chinese parents protesting after earthquake.
The article I read about was the parents in China who were protesting after the earthquake that happened last month on May 12, 2008. They were protesting because they think the schools were poorly constructed and they don't think they should have collapsed like they did. Today on June 3, 2008 the police had to drag more than 100 parents who were protesting. Their children went to a school where more then 270 students died after the schools collapsed on them.
After looking at the collapsed school buildings they found that no steel reinforcing bars had been used in construction, only iron wire. The death toll from this horrible earthquake keeps increasing. There are 69,107 people dead and 18,230 people still missing. Also this earthquake left 5 million people homeless. There are many soldiers there helping these people and three days ago a transport was carrying 19 people, 14 of them people injured in the quake, when it flew into fog and turbulence and crashed Saturday. There are thousands of soldiers who have been searching for this military helicopter.

Paul Pierce is home at last!!!!
The Boston Celtics are in the NBA Finals. They have not made it to the NBA Finals in 21 years. Now that they have made it the big question is can they win it all. Paul Pierce the captain of the team has been looking forward to this moment ever since he stepped on a basketball court. He grew up in Los Angeles, California watching the Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics playing for multiple NBA titles. Paul Pierce was interviewed after he and his team had eliminated the Detroit Pistons Friday night. He said "as a kid, I hated the Celtics." He is most happy about finally making it to the finals but also because he gets to go to his home town and play against the team he loved as a kid.
Current Events
Today (June 3) in Rome many world leaders met at U.N.'s Food and Agriculture Organization. Here they discussed the increasing prices of food. They also discussed how to help world hunger. The food production must rise by 50 percent by 2030 to meet the increasing demand.
"Today's problem will only grow larger tomorrow unless we act now today," said the UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. They all agreed that they would have to act quickly and together as one. The leaders would meet in Rome for a total of 3 days. The pope feels that we have enough resources in the world and should not be having trouble feeding the hunger or producing food. They would be using 30 billion dollars a year to help with the problems.

similarities and differences on search engines
The search engines i used were dogpile, icerocket, alltheweb, kooltorch, and webbrain. I found webbrain was the best one because of the way it worked and how detailed it was. All the others were similar to each other. The ones I found most usefull was webbrain and icerocket. I think Kooltorch was a bad one because it was a little to compicated for people to use. The search engines i would recomend are dogpile, icerocket, webbrain, and allthewebb.
search engines
For ask.com as you type in your search, some related ideas and links pop up and helps you narrow down the search. Lycos.com has a home page to sign in and for all my searches i used hannah montana. For that search they had more links to buying hannah items than more about her. For ujiko.com you need to download flash before using it so i was unable to search. For chacha.com you enter your question with your phone number and it will send it to you there. Icerocket.com is similar to google and is just a general search engine.
Search Engines by Edward Clair
I searched for Lovecraft.
Google- Google is a straight forward search engine. Nothing too special about it except it gets the job done in 0.20 seconds.
Ask Jeeves- Ask Jeeves is just as fast as google except it puts more neat features on the page such as pictures, biographies, and search narrowing.
Ujiko- Ujiko sucks a lot. One page of search results and 75% of them were ads.
Quintara- Quintara was pretty straight forward good results at a fast search time.

Quintara- Quintara was pretty straight forward good results at a fast search time.
I searched the New England Patriots on all five of the search engines. They were all mostly similar in what websites came up. The first website on all of the search engines was the official website to the New England Patriots. A couple of them were different with what other websites they came up with. Some of the search engine came up with a website where you can buy tickets to the games like lycos.com and websites about the players.
cheerleading
I did my portaportal search engines on cheerleading. I went to five different links to look up this topic. On all the different links everything was pretty much the same. The only thing that is different is that they showed, and displayed different cheers. They also displayed pictures of different types of stunts.
