Everyday minors like this people work on unsafe condition and sometimes they die just because they are looking for little pieces of gold at unsafe places.

• About 75% of the time when minors find a product underground it most gold and we use it for jewelry. Not all country have a gold land some country like south Africa is the biggest supplier currently providing the worlds gold.

                                          

• When gold is found underground it not just look like a ring or a jewelry but it looks like little pieces ore gold(ore)  and before it becomes a ring it takes process 

The cyanide ion, CN⁻.
From the top:
1. Valence-bond structure
2. Space-filling model
3. Electrostatic potential surface
4. "Carbon lone pair" HOMO/LUMO

1.when gold(ore) is found many toxic, metals like cadmium and other stuff are surrounding it so they pour a chemical called Cyanide to separate the chemicals apart.

2.The toxic puddle get jumbled together with all the mining waste to create a big toxic mess which often ends up in the river and lakes, and then people drink it.

What do you think the true cost of this item?

To be honest the hundred dollars we pay for gold is not the truth cost, I believe the truth cost cannot just be hundred or millions of dollars but maybe billions of dollars and I will explain why: Gold is not a easy thing to find some times you have to go really deep underground just to find one little pieces and the person whom is searching is in danger every time he enters underground. And when gold is found not only do they just sell it to us they use toxic chemical to clean it and make it into jewelry and what they do with the toxic the release it to river and lakes and animals die and human drink it and we become in danger of a get sick and die.To be honest I think we should stop looking for gold underground if worker are put in unsafe conditions every day and Toxic chemicals are going to be used.

In The $2 camisole: How cheap is ruining our lives by Mary Elizabeth Williams explains how we are paying for stuff that we are not really paying for for example a the kindle we are only paying for half the price not the full price and when a new one comes out we go and get it not thing about the affects.going out and get a new one all the time burns many plastic and some contain toxic that can harm human.even know we know what happen ever time we get new thing we just keep geting it, it like we want to be updated all the time with new things.Geting new thing just keeps me happy that why i bhuy almost every new tect that comes out.

Reason 1: those bargains come at a cost -- to workers here and abroad, to the environment, and to our own increasingly superficial relationship with our possessions.
Example:Every time we buy someing new we are destoying the enviroment.

Reason 2: it's just that shouldn't some things , be valued more?
Example: when the product cost more we will not be able to buy it all the time and we can save the environment

17: Reflection on Blogging

1. how blogging has helped you improve your writing?

Blogging has help me improve my writing in many ways for example when i first started i thought i was good enough in my writing but at the weeks went by i started getting batter and better i new what i was writing about i stayed on the topic and i had more ideas as i was writing.

1. what you could have done more or differently.

What i could have done batter in most of my writing is explain more on my thesis and show some example to support my main idea and the writers main idea.
 if i was to take this class again what i will do differently is write more and put more details in my writing.

Blog 16: The New Industrial

The New Industrial migrants by Eric schlosser explain how large amount of people from Mexico,central America and southeast  Asia come and take over jobs.The Immigrant that come to take over our
job don't have their papers to work or the right to come to this country.The immigrant that come here to work most of them work at the beef factor and ther get paid about 9.25 an hour and gets vacation and insurance when work on the job for about 6 mouths or 1 year. Most Immigratent don't even live in a good condition area some live in old motels (shared by other immigrant) and sleep on a mattress that cover the floor.

The New Industrial migrants by Eric schlosser explain why company's pick immigrant from other country to work IBP.The IBP company pick immigrant from other country because the money. An immigrant will accent any pay and work long hours an American Citizen will want more money and will work less hours. Not only is the company hiring immigrant which is illegal if ther don't have their paper to work,but their are ordering buses to pick them from Mexico and bring them to working the US.Even know this is illegal.Spokman for the IBP company said "We do not knowingly hire undocumented workers"denying the Truth.

I don't agree with this because it seems that we the American citizen whom we have the rite  to work and ask for more money if the boss is not paying us enough his losing our jobs and giving the jobs to the immigrant.it seems that the IBP company goes to plan B to hire immigrant that won't complain about their job. Every day an American citizen is looking for a job and he or she can't find one because the immigrant have taken it and that person have work hard to get a job in the future and so the immigrant have to do is go ask for a job and hes hired without no question or papers asked.wow an immigrant can get payed about 9.25 an hour,some citizens don't even get pay that much.I don't think this is right because some people work hard to get a job in the future and don't all because of the immigrant. I believe the laws for not allowing immigrant to work to get tougher because when the laws get tougher company's are going to stop hiring immigrant and many jobs will be open to the people whom work hard for it.

Nancy jo of "how to Do one thing at a time "explains how our brain can only remember or at it best when thing are done one at a time, Onlike sometimes we will be texting and driving and sometimes talking  on the phone while driving.An experiment was giving to group of student. The first group was doing more than two thing at ones ther were chatting,compilling a music playlist and writing an essay,The secound grup did one thing at a time for 10 minutes and resuit show the brain is at it best when thing are done one at a time.his it a good idea to turn off your phone when drive even know you may missed an important email?

In my belive "yes" you should turn off your phone when you are driving.Checking an email while driving can be the most digorose thing you can do,because when youare driving and an email comes in your focus is no lnoger on driving is on the email and that could cause an accident and you can get yourself killed or someone killed.

When we are driving it we must be 100% focus on the road becuse ther's so many thing go on, a truck can come by and get infornt of you a car stop because the red light is on and when we have our cell phone on we are not all that focus we about 50% focus on the road and 50% on what going to pop up next on the cell phone.

I have tried taking on the phone while driving and i thought i had 100% focus on the road so i picked up the phone stated talking to my frend and LoL and for a min I hit a cars light and i tried to remember ow it happen but I only could rememeber what my frend was talking about.

Sometime we have to turn of our phone because it for our safty.

As for my response am glad i read this article now i know what to avoid and not to avoid.The advice that interest me the most is"don't eat anything your great-grandmother wouldn't recognize as food"because it seems that our great grandmother knows what healthy for us to eat.I believe our great grandmother lived in a time that healthy thing was made so she knows what rite for us.The things that seems kinda hard to do is eat mostly plant especially lives ,avoid the middle and plant a garden.I wish  i can plant a garden someday and try to eat healthy like my my great grandmother will do.

    In”Lets Them eat Fat” explains how a black kid whom is leving in an lower middle income area will walk to McDonalds and order cheesbuger,small fries and a small coke will get a cheesbuger and a large coke that filled with fat. As we eat their food it gives poor protein and rich in carbohydrate and fat which is not good for your body.Is walking to mcDonalds to get a quickbite a good idea?

is walking to mcDonalds to get a quickbite a good idea? No cause their feeding you fat,and the fat it has can kill you. Mc Dnald do not care about your health or thier care about is growing their bussins and geting your money.The most intersing idea in the article is a kid ordering cheesebuger and small soda will get a a cheesebuger and a supersize soda,it like ther want you to drink somthing that bad for your health.I  never relized that 680 calories to more than 1,0 are in the meal.

one thing this article reminded me of is when i saw a pic on the train that had a coke poring fat to the gass bottle.Afte reading this artcle i don’t thing I will walk to McDonald and order a cheesebuger and soda now i know why refills are free.I agre with this artcle because one time i ordered a big mac and small soda and i got a big mac and large soda and i ask why,the casher told mea it comes with it,now i know the real deal

What the Whale be at? The place of race & racism in  the discussion of Environmentalism by Terry J.Cole explain how we should care about the environmentalism. The environmentalism will  get us if we don't take care off it.with a good environment create healthy people a poor environment create problems for people.when the environment is taking care off it  makes us heathy people on like poplutiion which gives people asthma and some people can die from it.

Yes i believe we should care about the environment because it important for our health  and commute.
Environment is something we should all get involved with when we talk about the community.without the clean environment human can't live.Everyday we go to the haospital because we can't bething breathe in bad air and the enviroment.

The Meatrix:
The Begin of the movie show how the Leo is living in a fantasy and Moopheus is trying to get Leo to join him and explain how The Meatrix is all around us. Moopheus tells Leo that the life is living is all a fantasy and the real world is when all the pig and the chicken are all together and some are killing each other to get some space and air and most of the animals are dieing because of the disease. Their so closed that if one has a sickness the other one get it right away. Many pigs are dieding so much they start adding constant dosage to their food just to keep them alive.

The Meatrix: Revolting
Leo decided to join the Meatrix and see the real world thru is glass like example Leo shaw that technology is now pumping the milk, the cows are giving RBCH  at artificial growth hormone that makes the cow bigger to get more mike .When the baby cow is born the technology feed them blood from the died and the disease spend to the baby cows.

The Meatrix II 1/2
Leo decided to rescue Moopheus from the agent but before that happen Leo sees the meat factory. The meat factory can process about five thousand a day just to feed the fast food nation. In the factory many worker are getting hurt and the blood goes thru our food without noticing us. As the speed goes up the disease from the other cows spend to the other meat.

My Response:Waste
Waste on the fame it very bad because the more waste you produce the more bad stuff  and bacterial it going to affect the cows.One dairy farm with 2,500 cows produces as much waste as a city with around 411,000 residents. When we keep the weate in the farm for a long time it create problem for us and the animals so what should we do.Waste is something the we can't stop no matter what we do everyday we do something that create waste.we try to reduced waste like for example reuseing the thing we already used but sometime it still waste left over. (NOT DONE)

A life was taken by two Rutger University students who activated a webcam in the dorm of his roommate. The roommate of Ravi asked for the room till midnight but ravi was the kind of person who liked to invade people private so he went to Molly Wei room and activated is webcam and found out is roommate was making out with a dude and tweeted “Roommate asked for the room till midnight. I went into molly room and turned on my webcam. I saw him making out with a dude. YaY”.  Dharun Ravi and Milly Wei is in jall and could face up to five years in prison if found guilty. New Jersey has a law that says it a crime to transmit or view nude images or sex acts of someone without the person’s approval. Many student believe it was an invasion of privacy what the two student did “it my dorm. It my private space: said a student. many believe it because of technology that cause the student to jump and kill himself. Anne collier believe it humanity not to technology. Gray Sandoval of C’Net made a similar point to Anne Collier  idea “humans, not machines are responsible for clement death, but the fact that technology was involved it does change the equation somewhat. Who to blame for clement death?

In my thinking the student who decided to invade Clement privacy by tuning on the webcam. When someone ask for the ron you should respect if you want the person to respect you when you asked for a favor like that. What the two Student did was wrong and should be found guilty so something like this never happen again. The webcam is something we use for different  thing like to chat and take pic so I believe humanity is to blame for this action, a webcam can only be turn on by an action of humanity.

A Coppertop's Life Artifacts

To much TV for kids,even the TV gets sick when he watches the same person for hours, but we don't.

 I picked this picture because almost everyday we watch TV,and it has many affect on us but we just don't know.Everyday we watch an average of  7 hours or more of  TV and sometimes when it bed time we ask for more time and keeps us from getting our work done,waking up in the morning,and for kids not doing their homework.When we turn on the TV we can't control our self to tune it back off after we watch it about 1 or 2 hours.when our TV is broking we go back to the store and get a new one the same day,it like we can't live without TV and that bad because it like the TV becomes our Boss at home. His the TV trying to send a massage when it broke?.

At first i used to watch about 16 hours of  TV. I never stay awake in school never did my homework,never remember what my parent told me about things i had to do all i remember was what the TV showed me. After i stop watching TV i was a different person I  wasn't close to becoming a deaf person because of my mom scamming "Turn the damn TV off and go to sleep". I become a good thinker,good reader and most of all i passed all my class.

Teenagers these days like me seems to live a "wired life" now a days because it seems that the internet has taken over us and the only way to get our attention is thought the email or aim. in my believes it like the only thing that keeps us from  fallen behind other in the things that are going on. Email and aim get our attention because it easier and free to send your friends MSG with out having to pay. I agree to the fact that the only way to get our attention is thought email or aim because it like we only like to focus on what we are focus on,so when we are focus on email and you send an email we will remember it.

BAD THING

Everyday we watch TV,sometimes we just can't stop watching it because it like we are interesting in everything it showing.kids watch TV so much that sometimes their forget to do their homework and the more kids watch TV the more their life start to change in the TV way.the TV gets our attention so much that if their was a fire we will not notice.when it bed time we ask for more time and not know the affect it has on us and the kids.As we watch TV it separate us from our family cause we watch TV so much that talking to the family about problem their having is know longer important us.

TV is something that has affect everyone who watches it because when we tune on the TV, it get our attention so much sometimes we are late for work or school,and it keeps us from getting 8 hr of sleep everyday.TV can be good in someway like getting info on what going on or have to plan your day but now a days TV is more off a shows type.

Everyday we use a device that we can't turn off. It called a phone.When we use a phone we use it for many thing like to check email and to be updated. we use a  phone for many things now that apps are created to keep us focus on one thing the phone.Back the day a cell phone was only use for talking and maybe text and people was not use to focus on it like we are today,now a days for phones many apps are created that everything we imagine a phone to have a phone has,thanks to the apps. Many apps are create that some times when we are crossing the street we don't even look at the sign that says DO NOT WALK, phone lovers are so focus that some people crossed the street when the light is red and got killed but people still don't have the time to tune it off and focus on the street. A model was text while she was waiting for the train to come,the train was late,the lady started walking around and she got to the yellow line and she was so focus on the amazing thing that the her phone can do that she falled and the train came and killed her.A phone is something that we have to sometimes put away and focus on what important things like family.

I have a phone that i can't turn it off,it like when i turn off my phone i missing what going on it like am not updateing myself.

                                                   FACEBOOK

Facebook is one of the illusion that saperate us from the would .Facebook catchs our attention so much that we don't even focus on what going on in the real world,we start to care about is what is happening to our friends on Facebook and their life.we don't stop and thing about what happen to us that we are using facebook every day and we just care that Facebook was created to keep as in touch with new people and our friends. but sometimes that not the point we do on facebook.Sometimes we talk to people we don't even know, we send request to people we like to know and became their friend.sometimes we forget what we are doing that when we see Facebook we start to to forget what happen and focus on the life off facebook.

I chose facebook  because facebook is like a virus that spend when we see it.As soon as we sign in we have nothing to do we what going on with the would we just don't care anymore it like we are in the facebook world now as soon as we start using facebook.With facebok i can do many thing for example,find an old friend,meet new people,poke people, find some interesting info about someone i know, and more.The thing that are on facebook can keep as in company for the rest of the day and the next day.I think facebook is a mind controller it know what the mind wants and it knows how to get our attention.

Summary of Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave” part 2

Summary of Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave”

In Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave,” Socrates describes how a person in the outside world is can be different from a person in a prison house. In a prison-house, vary little things are around you,a have a fire which give light,a light wall which shows the shadows of the people walking. As a prisoner he doesn't know what the shadows are,he just knows it comes by once or twice and that the only thing that entertains him. A prisoner may know more about what around him than the outside because he has been in the place for a long time that he has surrounded. A person whom is in the outside knows more about nature and other things than the prisoner in the inside. When we first start facing truth,the process may be frighting,and many people run back to their old lives.  Is a prisoner any different from an outside person?

My Place in the Cave

Is a prisoner any different from an outside person? In my belief "maybe".why? Because when you become a prisoner for a long time nothing is going to change your still human you are just missing out on thing that are happening but when you get out you are going to question many thing and it going to make people think you are a crazy person.Am a prisoner who is still chained and see the shadows every day and think about what it is and what is making it happen about once a day.i challenge my friends when a shadow comes bye we try to gust what it is but for it seems that every time one comes by it a different one meaning. Theirs nothing new around me nothing to remember nothing to small and nothing to look forward to because nothing happen expert for shadows coming bye.As a prisoner  i did lean anything till i got release and started seeing and asking question.The sun thought me a lot of thing i need to know about the place am standing just bye see it,now i understand what the shadows that was passing means and i try to tell my friends what it means but i thought about it and decided not to tell cause it going to be new to them and their not going to know what am trying to tell them.Am a prisoner who is still chained and see the shadows every day and think about what it is and what is making it happen about once a day.I challenge my friends when a shadow comes by,we try to gust what it is but for it seems that every time one comes by it a different one and different meaning.Theirs nothing new around me nothing to remember nothing look forward to because nothing happen expert for shadows comes by.

   

"And if he is compelled to look straight at the light, will he not have a paining his eyes which will make him turn away to take in the objects of vision which he can see and which he will conceive to be in reality clearer than the thing which are now being shown to him?"I agree with this Quote because as a prisoner i was in the dork for a long time and when i got release and looked up into the sky the sun it was so bright that my eyes started to burn.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             

What evidence in your life supports your claim that you are where you are? The evidence that show am at the right place is the people around me because i kinder look like them human even know am a prisoner am still human, so by seeing human on the planet am at the right place.

My opinion is there is know different between these two people the only different is one is in one place which their nothing to discover and one is in a place of new things happen everyday.

In the movie "The Truman show  to many thing in life for example reality shows today  “The Bachelor," “Survivor," or “The Real World” all have something in common, all this shows are being firmed in real life, but this time the directors have permission to firmed their real life on like Truman who never new on till the end. In the The Truman show Truman is the one who is making the show a realty because he's being filmed everyday and min of is life and he does know about it. In real life now some people know when their being firm.

The Bachelor,Survivor,and The Real World all have something in common. The people that are in the show knows what going. The people agreed to be firmed like the Truman show, The people like the idea of being on tv 24/7. Most of the shows have to do with finding love,but in The Truman Show it mostly had to do with how he lived is life from a kid to a growled up. "The Truman show" shows many thing in life that is truth.

What are the similarities and differences between The Truman Show and Plato's "The Allegory of the Cave"?
The Truman show and The Allegory of the Crave have many similarities and difference. In the movie The Truman show it mostly focus on the realty life of truman, in Allegory of the Cave focus on how a prisoner can only see what in front on him which is the shadow passing by. Some of the similarities in the truman show and allegory of the cave is that both person can only see what in front of him and not the outside, both person study what comes around them.

The differences between the Allegory and Truman is that in the story The Allegory of the Cave the prisoner can only see one thing which is the shadows theirs nothing around them expect for fire and other prisoners. In The Truman Show Truman learn many things, he discover many thing, he had is own world,he had a job, he had a dream girl in is mind, he had feels, he had a relationship, he had a family that love him but in the Allegory the prisoners had nothing but a shadow wall.

I don't agree to the fact that the realty shows we have today is like the Truman show because in realty shows we have today it seems like the people that are in the show are not them self their acting like someone else. In The Truman Show Truman is himself as someone who  is trying to live a good life after the loss of is father. As for my opinion truman is the real realty show.
