JQ 10/29 It has been one year since Super Storm Sandy. What do you remember about the storm? What did you do while we were not in school? How long were you without power? etc
I do indeed remember super torm sandy, it was a pretty bad storm. I remember not being able to get gas and my dad had to go online for gas at 4 am. I had no power for about a month but I luckily got a genrerator a few days after the storm. And Since we werent in school I pretty much just hung out with my friends and slept all day, I was pretty nice. So other than not having any power for a few days until i got my gemerator hurricane sandy really wasnt too bad it was a nice vacation.

JQ 10/28. Breaking news McDonalds will no longer use Heinz ketchup. Is this a problem? Why are they no longer using Heinz ?
The reason that mcdonalds is no longer using heinz ketchup is becasue the new board of directors of heinz ketchup is the former CEO of Burger King and he has cut the 40 year relationship between heinz and mcdonalds. This may cause a problem for Mcdonads for its customers that are used to heinz ketchup and perfer it. It may cause mcdonalds to lose customers if people do not like the new ketchup mcdonalds decides to use. Personally it doesnt make a difference to me because i dont really ever eat mcdonalds or ketchup so it doesnt have any impact on my life. But however it may save mcdonalds money on the other hand becasue they wont haver to pay heinz for advertising sand trhe rights to use their products anymore.

JQ 10/ 25 Safe Halloween is today at WEST. Are you participating in it today? , if so what club are you working with and what are you doing? Please also share if you participated in Safe Halloween as a child and what it meant to you then and now.
Yes today I will be participating in safe halloween, I am participating with DECA. I am either working in the school store or working in the actual haunted events. When I was a child I didnt know anything about safe halloween, so therefore safe halloween didnt really mean much to me as a child, and now it means something to me now that im involved in the event. I think it is good for the community and for the younger children in the school district and it is nice to incorporate them in to our school activities.

JQ 10/24
After reading the Newsday article below, provide your opinion on Starbucks' attempt to capture the tea market.
The new marketing campain that starbucks is trying to achieve with opening teavanna shops i think will be actually very successful. I believe people would reach positively to the new tea shops and would respond positively because i would cause new hype and a new expeience to consumers. Even though it will be a similar experience because of the different product offering i believe it will appeal to a different demographic of people who enjoy drinking tea more so than drinking coffee. Another option starbucks and teavanna have is to partner the two into one store and sell both tea and coffe in the same building. I also believe this option will be successful for the business. Overall I think Teavanna will be a successful business either way. I found it very interesting that starbucks owns teavanna

JQ 10/23/13
After reading the article in yesterday's Newsday state your position on Inbloom and the idea of posting academic information with a third party. Is this an invasion of your privacy? State your position and at least 4 supporting facts.
The Inbloom project I believe is a complete waste of government spending. The government is spending over $500 million dollars of our money to form this database with our personal information attached to it. Yes I do believe it is important for civilians and tax payers to see how the students in the district which they pay taxes are doing, but I believe there must be a best and more cost efficent way in doing so. Another problem I agree with is the problem with privacy of our personal information. The government is planning on giving our personal information to a third party business to make this database its not even directly linked to the federal government. I would not want to be one of the 400,000 long island students whose information gets taken down for inbloom, because once this database has some if your information it opens a gate fro other people to get more of your information and possibly get access to areas of our info which we dont want people in access of such as bank accounts, social security, etc. So overall I dont agree with the creation of this program and I think it is unnecessary and a big waste of government money which they really shouldnt be spending in the first place esspecially because of the governments current money situatuation now.

I necessarily dont have one specific favorite type of music. I listen to almost every genre, but I do listen to Rock and Roll more than any other genre. I dont really like rap music particularly. The reason I like rock music more than other genres i listen to is because I like the Sound of hard guiatar and drums beats, I just overall like the sound of the music, that is really the only way to explain why I like the music i like to listen to.

Journal Question 10/18/2013
Even though the government claims they have fixed the debt ceiling problem and have technically put the governemtn back into operation, i believe that the governments problems are not solved at all and are just prolonging the large debt problems for the near future. The governments answer to all of or debt problems is to just borrow and print more omney and therefore go deeper into debt and at the same time lessen the value of the dollar. I Think the government is just going to continue to sink the country deeper and deeper into debt and solve the debt problem the same way in january that they did in october.
