this weeks article is about the new apple nano-chromatic ipods. the audience could be anyone, teachers, students, old folk.. because everyone listens to music and anyone could buy a ipod. this article interess me because i love music! and my last ipod nano broke and the new ones look so awesome! I knew some about the new ipods, but i didn't know all about the new features. three things i've learned from this article is.......
#1. if you shake it then it shuffles your songs for you
#2. while your listenign to it if you turn it side ways then the screen turns side ways
#3. they come in chromatic colors.
annnnnnd my question would be.. who thought up the idea for the new fan-freaking-tastic ipods?

Procrastinate Now! Reasons Why Procrastination is Good for You
http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/269760/procrastinate_now_reasons_why_procrastination.html?cat=7
My article this week is about procrastinating and why it's good sometimes. The article's audience is for people that over book their days with alot of work causing them to multi-task. The article interests me because i procrastinate all the time, and my teachers and parents both tell me it's not healthy to. All i knew was that ive always heard my parents say not to put things off till the last minuet. Three things i've learned from this article is..
1.) when you find yourself vegging out in front of a stupid movie when you ought to be working on a last minute report is a good indication that you might need to stop cramming so much into your day
2.)By procrastinating, we end up giving ourselves some breathing room and recovery time, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
3.) And a fear of failure can cause the paralyzation that so often leads to procrastinating.
annnnnd my question is.. doesn't putting things off till last min. stress people out more? because your worried that you might not finish it.. wouldn't that make procrastinating bad?

Schools Split on 'Open Campus'
http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=940DE5DC163DF930A15753C1A96E948260&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=2
This article is about schools allowing students to go off campus or have a free period during lunch instead of eating in school. The audience is students, teachers and parents; because they want their input. The article interests me because that would be really awesome if our school would let us do that, but with our school someone would mess it up by not coming back or staying too late. I didn't really learn anything new, i just found out that schools really did let people go off campus.. i thought it was just in movies. and my question is..?? what about the cooks that use to cook for students? do they lose their jobs?
