My Restaurant Project



     A restaurant is there for a person to be happy while eating.  Lido Restaurant in Hackensack, New Jersey is one of my favorites.  At Lido they serve American and Italian cuisine that will trigger saliva in your mouth faster than Usain Bolt can run the 100 meter dash.  The inside is very calm and the waiters and waitresses are friendly.  I am telling you, the food is too good to explain, you have to give them your cash in order to try a piece of the beautifulness that comes out of that kitchen.  Let me go into some finer details about this incredible place.
     Two of their most divine dishes are the sliced steak and thin crust pizza.  I have drooled over myself in front of company while eating the pizza.  Ever since this restaurant came out almost thirty years ago, there have been people like me drooling over themselves.   Even if you ruin your brand new pants because of this, it is all worth it.  Once you go one time, you will have to go back so many more.
If Lido Restaurant were to close down, first I would play a lot of hockey, then I would gently weep myself to sleep.  Hockey makes everything better, but it would take a while for me to get over it.  Sad hockey is not the best hockey I play, but I would put my all into it for the name of Lido Restaurant.

RSS Feed Project

  1. Why did you select the sites you subscribed to?
  2. Was it easy to find feeds and to subscribe to them?
  3. Which sites were your favorites?
  4. What else can you use RSS feeds for?
  5. How likely are you to continue to use RSS feeds in the future?

1. The purpose for selected the sites that I did was to keep in touch with each of them much quicker then before.
2. Not all of them were as easy as the other, for example: when I was trying to find other sites for my hobbies category, it took quite long to find a reasonable one with an RSS feed button.
3. Probably the NHL news feed because I know that they will have the most reliable information, and I always like to keep up to date with the NHL.
4. You can use it to see your best friends posts on Twitter or Facebook, and many other things too.
5. I cannot tell how likely I will be to keep using them because the world is changing fast and in a second it could be gone.

You Can Feel the Game Now?

Yes indeed, you can feel the game now, and it is better than ever.  There is only one bad part, you have to be San Jose Sharks fan.  Otherwise, you can use the newly proclaimed "4D" technology of being able to use, to be just like the people in the stands.  You insert the piece into your couch, and then it is done.  It cost $300.

Do Now 12/2

If there were a class to add to our school The Importance of Hockey Class.  The class would meet all of the school day for everyday, because hockey is the best and deserves the best.  For the Importance of Hockey class, it would feel, look, sound, but not smell, amazing.  Students would learn the importance of hockey, and demonstrate the meaning of being a hockey player.

Wiki Disection

1. The purpose of this wiki is on information for distributive technology.
2. The last post was November 7, 2007.
3. The wiki was created for the mainstream public, and, the person used paragraph text, and a chart.
4. I would add easier information to hone in on, so the average user could find what they are looking for.
5. I did not learn much, and that is why I would make it easier to navigate, and access information.
6. If I had to create a wiki with a specific team, it would be on hockey.
7. Wikis can be used in a classroom for education, to make projects, to track data, and to measure the progress of the class.


  1. What is the purpose of this Wiki?
  2. When was the last post?
  3. How was this Wiki created?
  4. What would you add to it?
  5. What did you learn from it?
  6. If you had to create a Wiki with a team, what would be the specific topic (s)?
  7. How can Wikis be used in the classroom or in education?

Protecting the most important part of the game.

With concussions being the largest issue in the NHL and NFL, it is apparent that the two leagues need to improve testing and issuing out correct tests grades.  Especially in the NFL is this an issue, where players will continue to play under the influence of medication, in order to get there time on the field.  In hockey, it is all about being able to get out for the next shift, but it is important to improve yourself in time for it.  Well, what if you didn't have to always be as concerned about the most important of your body.  With advances in helmets from companies such as Bauer, CCM, and Riddell it has be less of an issue to have to worry about going to the locker room for tests every time.  The companies have been adding layers to the there helmets by having foam pads with small plates in between the frame and foam.

How can a wiki be used a current class on your schedule?

A wiki can be used in a current class schedule to track the chapters and subjects we have covered in a class.  An example could be in History class; you will create the wiki with all of the chapters/subjects you will cover.  Then in three weeks when you are done with The French Revolution, you can put it into your class's finished column and then you can move on and repeat.  This could also be used for your review for midterms and finals.  By doing any of this, it will keep your class organized and aware of what is coming up.  My experience with wikis would be in my World History class and Web 2.0.

What I did over the long weekend.

I barely did anything over the long weekend we had from school.  I tried to sleep, woke up and ate.  It was very unexciting and full of nothingness.  Best thing would have been watching hockey, but my favorite team lost each game they played over the weekend.  It was just very bad, and I couldn't do anything about it.  Nothing made it any better for me the day after.
