It was a cold windy night and a guy named John was walking down the street. John was walking as fast as he could because it was already late and he had heard in the local news that there had been some vandalism lately. As he hurried he heard a noise, his heart skipped a beat he looked behind him and he saw nothing. He grunted and said to him self “stop being scared it probably was just a cat.” But he picked up his pace. Then out of no where came two men dressed in black and yelled “Hey where you going?” He just ignored them and kept walking. He heard them coming towards him, closing in. His heart was pounding furiously and his brain was trying to think what he was going to do. The he felt cold hands covering his mouth he tried to yell but it was no use, the other man came in front of him and said “Give me your money and we promise not to hurt you.” John dug his hands inside his back pocket and found his wallet and threw it to him. “Ok, I gave you the money! Now leave me alone!” said John, but it sounded different since his voice was muffled by the hand covering his mouth. The men started laughing, the man who had the wallet took out a rope and said “You think we’re going to leave you off the hook that easily?” He started to tie John’s hands while he was doing that he stared to say “ You see, if we let you go that easily then after we’ve let you go then you would go snitching to the pol-…” he was interrupted by the men behind him “Hey boss lets hurry up because I’m starting to get cold.” The guy in front of him had finished tying the ropes in John’s hands and said “alright lets go.” They moved thru several dark alleys that John never knew they even existed. Then they came to a stop, they heard police sirens from far away “let’s leave him here” one guy said pointing to what looked like a trash can. They picked him up and threw him inside. When he went in all he felt was pain, and then he passed out from the pain. When he woke up john got out of the trash can and he felt wierd. It was midday and when he saw what the man put him in last night he saw a sign that said WARNING! RADIOACTIVE! and when he saw his reflection in the puddle near his feet he saw an ugly creature, mutated. John had been mutated into the most horrible creature in existance.

Mutant Project
The Mutant Project is a projetc that we need to make for a major grade. We need to crate a new file in Photoshop and we need to take a picture os us and trnaform it into some wirerd mutated creature combining with other pictures but it has to be recongnizeable so Ms. Boone can grade it.
Emerging Technologies
In a relatively short period of time, our world has changed dramatically because of the creation in 1969 of a small computer network known as ARPANET.
Web sites have evolved over time. First generation sites were static—no interactivity. They included basic structures. Second generation sites included intuitive, user-friendly navigation systems, focused on the content, and animation—blinking text, moving banners, animated images, etc. Since businesses were now online, there was much more interaction than with first generation sites. Third generation sites addressed their audiences based on their objectives, which drove the design and structure. Splash pages were popular, as was the use of cascading style sheets, portals, and forms. These sites focused on content and were easily navigated. Fourth generation sites are participatory and highly interactive. They provide richer experiences for their users. Site designers take full advantage of the new tools of Web 2.0. They frequently include wikis, blogs, podcasts, webcasts, and Web services. Standards are being developed for mobile users of the Web to make their online experience productive and efficient.
E-commerce has exploded because of the popularity of the World Wide Web and the new technologies that have been developed. An example of a new technology the we are using in our classroom is using a BLOG to form journal entries.
