Alexis Bio~

Alexis Little was born on March 23rd 1993 at Earl K long. She was born in Baton Rouge lousiana for 14 years and lived briefly in Dallas Texas. Alexis has one sister who is in college at southern. Her sister is majoring in criminal law. Her dad is a chef and her mother is no longer with us. Alexis is 17 right now.

Alexis went to scottlandwille elem. moss haven elementery, universitarial elementery, Glen Oaks middle, and now she resides at Bethany Christian School. Alexis remembers when she and her sister was younger her father would turn up the music and turn the Television down low and they would enjoy the music and dance around the table.

Alexis' plans for the future is to graduate highschool early and go to southern university she wants to be investigator or a nurse or maybe a teacher. Alexis wants one or two kids, and wants to get married a long time from now. She likes to listen to music dance and text and talk to her friends. She likes Blues R&B, Soul and gospel music.

She thinks bethany has been fun, because students here were nice and not mean, some of them but not all of them. Her favriote school was Glen Oaks middle because she knew everybody there and everyone knew her grandfather.

In conclusion I think Alexis is a really nice and intelligant individual she has brought alot of fashion and experience to the 2009-2010 newspaper. She is a very friendly person and fun to talk to about things.

Ipad story

Apple's new pride and joy the Ipad has got alot of mixed reveiws. The hype and excitement that surround it when was first announced was unimagineable. Pre-orders and saving accounts were in abundance so Apple fans could have their precious Ipad before the supply ran out or probaly just to show it off. Now as the release date grew closer and closer the Ipad's reputation went down the toilet as more details about it came out. People started comparing it to a rock and making fun of the double meaning of it's name. But as people bought it and tried it for themselves it has been agreed upon that the Ipad is not completely useless. I will explain the PROS and CONS of the Ipad and try my best to actually find some PROS.
CONS: The Ipad can't multitask which basically means you can't do two things at once. You can't stream music while writing a paper or surf the internet while talking on the phone. Apple has made a very powerful and useful design but what good is it when it's not being used to it's full potential.
PROS:T he Ipod has third party support. This means you can buy applications from the Istore. Which I guess it's good because it gives you new possiblities and thousands of new things to put on the Ipad to help you with homework, movie times or even a GPS.
CONS: The battery is built in. Meaning if your battery in your month old Ipad cuts off on you, you'll be buying a new Ipad very soon.
PRO: The battery last 10 hours if you're watching a video, and on standby it can last up to a month.
CONS:There's no camera. That means no Skype and no pictures on the go.
CON: It'll cost you an arm and a leg.

Personally I think the Ipad is stupid and Apple has alot to work on before they can release the Ipad 2.0. There are missing features even most cellphones can do and Apple can do way better than what they've done. There is a bright side though. The Ipad is the prototype to a whole new generation of technology to come. The telephone has the telegraph and future technology has the Ipad.

News Story Draft

This past couple of days I've been speaking with Mrs. Charla Buford Johnson who has won an amazing honor. She is a relative of Mrs. Alexander and Mrs. Buford and is also a Bethany alumni. She graduated in 1984 and is currently a Registered Nurse who practices specifically in Orthopaedics focusing on Muscular Dystrophy. Not only does she do that but she is progam coordinator of the Orthopaedic Service Line. She coordinates the surgical experience of patients who are undergoing joint replacement and spine fusion surgery. She currently works at Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center and was chosen to recieve Louisiana State Nurse Association Nurse of the Year Award. I've had the pleasure of speaking with Mrs. Johnson and she told me more about this wonderful acheievement and some wise words to Bethany students.
Firstly I asked her, more about the award and what it takes to win it and she replied:
"I was the recipient of the Louisiana State Nurse Association Nurse of the Year award. I was nominated by my peers for the impact I have made at both the local and state level on healthcare issues and in nursing; demonstration of the art/science of nursing; demonstration of clinical expertise; evidence of continuing education; mentoring; and participation in professional organizations. The candidates for this award were judged by professional nurses across the country who serve in leadership roles for other State Boards of Nursing and organizations including the American Nurse Association. There are over 44,000 nurses in the state of Louisiana so it was quite an honor."
She also has some advice for you Bethany Students:
"Never sell yourself short. God gives you gifts and talents beyond your own natural ability to achieve the things He has called you to accomplish. Choose a career that inspires you…it takes passion to accomplish the work."
She also said to always represent yourself in your career with with integrity, a high level work ethic, and remember learning doesn’t end at high school it is a life-long journey.

facebook draft

A lot of people know that when you browse the Internet it allows you a great amount of privacy and some people take it to the next level by staying anonymous. There have been countless reports of people claiming to be something they are not, people flaunting their good qualities and keeping the bad in the dark, and basically just making up a completely new person. Amazingly, on a social network I'm sure you all know called "Facebook" people generally tell the truth about every part of themselves, but the amazing thing is that people generally are more truthful about themselves on facebook instead of in real life.

I'm sure you are wondering how they figured out this amazing fact? Well scientist tested 133 U.S and 103 German college students from ages 17-22. They tested the subjects personalities and rated things such as extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, emotional instability and openness to new experiences. They then asked the subjects about themselves which turned out to be "idealized." After that they looked on the subjects facebook and found out it matched the scientist descriptions better than the actual subjects description of themself.
This means that your opinion of someone you form from a facebook page might be more accurate than an in real life opinion.
