 Why do you think the makers of The Meatrix films used The Matrix as the basis for their arguments? What possible connections could the food industry have to the ideas in The Matrix and, by association, the themes of this course?

The markers of The Meatrix films used The Matrix as the basis for thier arguements is that people are not well informed of what they eat. they think that the animal live "happly ever after" mesaning in a good envirment. in reality they live in a horrablie mess treated place. where the animal is abused.

The matrix was about how technology can be a major influence in our life. Each person can choose what they want to do with their life and what they believe in. I believe that "The Matrix", "The Truman Show" and "The Allegory of the Cave"is showing that technology is taken control of our lifestyle. Our world choose technology to run and/or help our lives. There can be the importance, an impact and even spoiling ourselves with technology.

                 Technology  is important to our society. The reason is that we watch the news on television to get our information that is based on our community or regions. For example the election of President Obama. He was the first African American to become President. The Nation Wide first experience his winning election and his speech of address in Washington D.C  through television or on the computer. Another reason technology is important is because we humans use the internet as a social network to communicate with other people from different part of the countries. They use Myspace, Facebook, and even twitter.

                Technology have an major impact within us, the reason is that it can bring the world to destruction or we can destroy each other. For example, during World War 1,2 and the Cuban Missile crises. Every country was competing with one another based on who had the strongest weapon. Weapon of destruction are not the only problem, technology such as cell phones and Ipods can cause accidents as well. A student from Laguardia Community College  was in a accident who got run over by a garbage truck. The cause of the accident was that the student didn't listen nor watch both ways while crossing the street because he was listening to their Ipod.

                 Technology can be a negative and a positive way for our life style.

During this the 1^st to the 2^nd blog entries I need to improve my own writing. I notice I had trouble with how I need to use evidence to support my own claim. There some point I can be off from topics but I need to come back to what the theme of my essay is. Then I had explain my own reader what was my essay going to be about. For example, was the essay an argument or persuasive I need to indicate what the reader was reading.  During my blog entries from 1-4, I stared to plan everything out with layout my ideas and structure the right information into the right paragraph. In blog 6 I didn’t have enough time nor read the instructions more carefully to do my essay. Last but not least, I felt I need help on my grammar based on how clear my sentences was and how I put or place my punctuation such as: column, commas, periods, and etc.

 On my 2^nd blog entries I know we worked on watching two movies such as the Truman Show and The Matrix. In all our blogs we were able to using the dictionary, thesaurus and the writing handbook. I really enjoy looking up new words and even replacing them with something better. All our work was in live discussions which were interested because we were able to read and learn from different points of view. But really it had me worry about what to write down. There were some problems I had, it was based on what to I write down on my essay. Being on the computer it’s kind of difficult to type I really enjoy writing my essay and an outline based on what to write down, instead of typing the essay. There was a point in class that I learned to use an outline what I need to write down on my essay based on the program you introduce to us. I need to improve and break some bad habits. The last thing I should not do is cut off some major distraction while I’m on the computer is not connecting myself to Facebook. I know this is the worst habits because it would make me lose my concentration towards my work. There are things that I would need to improve such as: work on time, rereading the information or stuff I write down and even go to tutoring more often. I understand there are major fix up to do with my essay and even to revise all of my work before submitting or posting it into my blogs. Well now im back from my break I would keep my head on the game.

PS. Dr. smith i couldnt find my blue handbook where i wrote down my essay but i rewrote something diffrent.

Thesis: Reality show a major influence towards children’s and teenagers life.

In the article “The Danger of Reality T.V. by Tomothy Sexton is about how reality television can send wrong messages and influence for the young viewer. I believe that reality show can be a major influence towards children’s and teenagers life. Reality show is always based on values of image over ability, competition to what you want and you don’t need any longer education to get somewhere.

The matrix discussion was really interested. My frist Experience was kinda difficult to know what way should I respond to the guildlines. The guldlines where this 3 things reason, evidence and support. Well he only thing tht got me worry was my reasons on the Matrix question based on the blue or red pill. But threw Facebook chat it made me understand the reason. Another experience I learned was that every one had different or similarity thoughts based on the movie.

Topic #1.
The perfect world versus the real world.
Cristoff creates a "perfect world" for Truman but it's really fake, it's not even compared nothing to the real world we live in. If Cristoff gave me a chance to decide where should I want to be I would choose the perfect world. The reason I would choose the perfect world is because there won't be any danger to anybody. The danger that the real world has is violence, war, property, judgmental,and even distruction. Imagen the perfect little world of yours, the American dream life. The only difference in The Truman Show,Truman live in this little globe. If he had the real globe and was able to sees diffrent city or countries besides his home town he would be satisfy.

The world that Cristoff has created tell us about our own society is that we live through diffrent thing and have different social status. Some people are born fortune others are born with low income or nothing at all. Those who are born in property, they need to find there own way to survive. The problems from our society is that this real world hides it's own little secretes. Each day people discover valuable information to help other or distroy. One example I'm bring out is politics. Politics can misinform the society but they know he truth of what we might be going through. Cristoff want to solve or eliminate problems such as violence, war, property. The thing he wanted to do is a movie with a script without Truman knowing his the main character.
