Free Topic

Since this week we have a free topic, I'm going to talk about one of my favorite, but lesser known, comic book teams: Marvel's Power Pack.  Power Pack is actually a team of siblings that received their powers when their parents were abducted by aliens.  The oldest sibling, Alex Power, has the ability to manipulate gravity, and goes by Zero-G.  The second oldest, Julie, can fly and move at light speed, and is appropriately titled Lightspeed.  Jack is the third oldest, and can expand his density so that he can turn into a cloud, or condense his matter so that his is nearly invisibly tiny and completely indestructible.  And Katie, the youngest, has the ability to disintegrate anything into energy, and then shoot that energy in a condensed beam.

Issues with Cheaters

There are a couple of main things that I would do if I saw a friend of mine cheating on something.  The first thing that I would do is report said friend.  I would tell an adult authority about it, then talk to the friend.  I would do this because 1.  The friend would realize that cheating didn't get him or her the points, and 2.  I could probably talk some sense into the cheating friend and get him or her to actually try to do the assignment right.

Photography Composition

I think that this photo is based on how it has been put together by how the frog has been centered in the middle of the image and caught in the middle of a jump.  It is also based on how it was put together by how large the frog is.  This shows that this is a macro photo.  The lighting and the mist behind the frog also help to make the frog stand out, and also stands as a sign that the photo was taken in the morning.

Test Week

Honestly, having to take tests every few weeks for your entire life is lame.  Personally, I think that education spends too much time testing people to see what they've learned.  If there weren't any tests, people would probably be a lot more relaxed in school.  Teachers would know that we've learned the lessons that were being taught by hosting game-based activities.  In my opinion, standardized tests are highly unessessary.  There probably could be "fair" testing for all students.  I generally do fairly swell on tests, and the person that "just doesn't do well on tests" probably just doesn't study or care.
