privacy
1. My right is the right to privacy.
2. The 14th amendment to Louis Brandeis is "the right to be left alone." We have the privacy of beliefs, privacy of the home against demands that it be used to house soldiers, privacy of the person and possessions as against unreasonable searches, and the privilege against self-incrimination that provides protection for the privacy of personal information.
3. the 10th amendment grants authority to an individual for any power not delegated to the United States Congress or prohibited explicitly in the Constitution of the United States. The reason why we don't have the right of privacy from the Government is because of all the terrorism that is going on.
4. These limitations exist because of all the terrorism that has happened to America. The U.S. is listening into our conversations and what we do on the internet because they are worried what we would do to harm our country.
5. If I had to give up the right of privacy, then i would like to have more security and help from the Government. The Government doesn't even support us if something happened to us like if a hurricane hit or tsunami hit the Government takes note of it but barely does anything about it. I believe the U.S. cares only about the money it has and chooses to use the least amount of money possible.
6. My right exists because our country needs the right of privacy and not having everyone into your own business. The right of privacy should be given to us with the actual right to have privacy but because of terrorism we don't have the complete right of privacy.

by: Martini1992
- credentials- socyberty
- this source is decently credible because it is somewhat like a blog and i can't be 100% sure that this information is correct.
- This source talks about two different reasons for global warming such as the CO2 levels rising and smoke that makes the sunlight bounce off and makes the global cooler.
- I believe what the person is saying because of all the global warming our climate even in St.Louis has been going everywhere.
2. http://hubpages.com/hub/Global-Warming--Real-Reason

- Credentials- Hubpages
- This source is not very credible because we don't know who this person is but this source has good information.
- This source talks about how there is a possibility that what humans and green house gases are not the things effecting our planet. That even global warming could be wrong. In this site it talks about how the sun goes through a sunspot cycle. This cycle has a 11 year period in which after those 11 years it is the hottest spot.
- I can't say that I believe or not believe because i don't know anything that is going on with the sun right now. But, I believe that we are putting the toxic wastes and gases into our atmosphere to put our planet in danger.

- I believe this site because MIT is known to be a very intelligent school and these people know what they are talking about and I would not doubt them because they are talking about our world that we all live in.

- This source talks about two different reasons for global warming such as the CO2 levels rising and smoke that makes the sunlight bounce off and makes the global cooler.
- I believe what the person is saying because of all the global warming our climate even in St.Louis has been going everywhere.

- This source is not very credible because we don't know who this person is but this source has good information.
- This source talks about how there is a possibility that what humans and green house gases are not the things effecting our planet. That even global warming could be wrong. In this site it talks about how the sun goes through a sunspot cycle. This cycle has a 11 year period in which after those 11 years it is the hottest spot.
- I can't say that I believe or not believe because i don't know anything that is going on with the sun right now. But, I believe that we are putting the toxic wastes and gases into our atmosphere to put our planet in danger.

- This source is credible because it was given by people from MIT which is a VERY intelligent school and I believe they would not put some random junk into their website.
- This site talks about how if the nations were to act quickly to reduce emissions it is more likely to that warming would be greater than previous studies had shown.
- I believe this site because MIT is known to be a very intelligent school and these people know what they are talking about and I would not doubt them because they are talking about our world that we all live in.

Middle-east conflict questions
1. Egypt got involved in the Arab-Israeli conflict by fighting along with Palestine, Syria, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, and Jordan against Israel.
2. 1948 the Egypt and the other Arab countries fought against Israel in four different wars. In 1956 Israel, France and Britain went to war against Egypt. Egypt nationalized the Suez Canal and closed it to Israeli and Western European trade. During the war, Israel captured the Sinai desert, but eventually gave it back in response to U.S. pressure and returned the territory it had gained to Egypt. Israel captured territories which had served as staging areas for rocket or terrorist attacks on Israeli civilian populations: the Sinai and the Gaza Strip from Egypt, the Golan Heights from Syria and the West Bank from Jordan including East Jerusalem. In 1973, on Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish year, Egypt, Syria, Iraq and Jordan attacked Israel. After initial Arab military successes, the Israelis managed to push back the attack. The U.S. convinced Israel to withdraw from the territories it had taken.
3. The enemy was Israel because Israel brought the Jewish religion into an area filled with Muslims and the Arabs did not like what Israel did.
4. Egypt's friends in the Middle-east were Syria, Iraq, Jordan, Palestine, Saudi Arabia, and Lebanon.
5. Egypt wanted independence and peace.
6. Egypt is not willing to give up the Gaza Strip and the Sinai
7. Egypt would not give up the Sinai but had to give up part of the Sinai for the peace treaty. In the peace treaty it limited the number of Egyptian military forces on the peninsula.

reflection post questions
1. What I learned from this project was that the experience the soldiers went through was insane. I also learned from an older man that saw my project and told me that more soldiers died in the water than on land.
2. My research question was "what was the soldiers experience during the Normandy beach invasion?"
3. The answer to my research question is that the soldiers drowned before even getting on land, got shot at by heavy artillery, and the U.S. had a disadvantage in the beginning of the war trying to go up the hill.
4. Yes. My final product answered this question.
5. The final product answered the question because on the model it showed what the soldiers went through, trying to go up the hill with heavy luggage, trying to get off the boats and onto safety, and soldiers with limbs cut off because of the heavy artillery.
6. On the project I would say I did well on making the project look like the actual war.
7. I could have improved the timing on the project. I would like to improve when to start everything. Our timing was so bad we had to finish our project in one night.
8. I would of change how we made the hill out of clay. The way we made the hill was too heavy and hard to carry from point A to point B, so if i could have changed something I did on the project it would be to make the hill higher and lighter.
9. There is nothing that I would change about the assignment because it is a very good assignment but, the way we used our time was our problem.
10. I think we deserve at least a B because for a last minute product it came out fairly well but because we slacked off our plan wasn't as good as it should have been and our final product could have been better if we had a little more time.

Today I changed my project to a board game from a movie. I changed my project because of technical difficulties. I have a list of materials that I will need to finish this project and hopefully get this whole project done before it is due. What I did today doesn't really help answer my question but it helps me with my project overall. My next action is to make/buy the materials I need and to make the board game.
seven questions re-do
1. My research question is what was the soldiers experience during the Normandy beach invasion?
2. The form of which our final product will be a model. I am planning on making a model with the beach and how they arrived. Also what they went through and experiences.
3. I chose to do a model because we had technical difficulties with our movie.
4. The definition of the finished product will be a model showing the U.S. landing on shore of Normandy and fighting against the German defences.
5. Making the model will help us answer the question because it will visually show the soldiers experience landing on shore during D-Day and fighting.
6. The breakdown for my model is to buy the equipment we need or make what we need and start on the model.
7. My next action for the model will be to create a visual

"World War II" Primary sources. By: Barbara C. Bigelow.
In this book it talks about how the invasion took place. It also has information on the war from the veterns. "After we jumped into the water, it was every man for himself. I waded parallel to the beach with my squad because the heavy fire was directed towards the boats... I saw Lieutenant Hilscher go down on his knees as a shell exploded. He fell into the hole caused by the explosion. He died there on the beach." This is what Sergeant Warner Hamlett said. It also talks about how everyone got hit and died, or hit.

"World WarII" by William L. O'Neil
In this book it talks about how dangerous the invasion was. Usually when you are attacking, you want more than the defenders but because Germany had 20 more divisions than the Allies it was a very high risk. Preparations were very well done, they couldn't beat the Germany's on foot so they sent in highly successful fighter-bombers.

the six questions from Mr. Nilsen.
1. On my project I have started on my film. I haven't gotten very far with it but I got a start.
2. I still have the entire movie to make and still quiet some information to gather.
3. Making the movie was harder than I thought it would be. I thought making a movie would be somewhat difficult but it is very difficult.
4. To me finding the information was the easiest for this project so far.
5. If I could start my project over I would find my information or find a different topic. If I were to pick a different topic I would choose a topic that I am fimiliar with so that I know if the information is correct or incorrect.
6. Before Spring break I need to gather up all of my information for this project. After I get all the information to my project I will be able to start on our actual film. Hopefully I will be able to start on the film before spring break so we have more time to fix our errors.

My action was to get as many photos and information as I could. Today I got a couple of pictures and made some posts. What I did today helped me answer my question beacuse I found out information on my question. My next action will be to find even more information and to start making a script.
seven questions
1. My research question is what was the soldiers experience during the beginning of the Normandy beach invasion?
2. The form of which our final product will take is a movie. I am planning on making a movie that is 15 mins long about the beginning of D-day June 6 1944.
3. I chose to do a movie because it's the only way to really answer my question. Scrapbooks, and other things would work as well but a movie would be more fun to make.
4. The definition of the finished product will be a 15min movie showing the U.S. landing on shore of Normandy, fighting against the German defences.
5. Making the movie will help us answer the question because it will visually show the soldiers experience landing on shore during D-Day.

daily post #2
Today, we researched and wrote a list of things we need. The research I did today, helped answer the question, of "what was the soldiers experience during the beginning of the Normandy beach invasion?" By next class I would like to have information set and get things started as soon as possible. :)

My plan was to start building an outline of the things I am working on. Last class I created my blogger and delicious account. I am planning on finding all the research and information I need this class.
