My comments on blogs!

I looked at RG's blog and Resource #8 was pretty cool i think becsuse he posted a picture that describes the kind of inovations that the incas had. The picture is showing that they had made raised beds for the plants so that it creates like a little valley for the water to go through. One of the other posts that RG put up was that really long maybe he could have just made a hyperlink so that it wouldn't take up so much space on the post.

I saw that william has alot of great links that go to good information but he hardly tells anything about them. I think that it would be better if he told something about then so that it would seem more interesting to the viewer.

Last I looked at Austins blog, one of the post that I think can use a little work on is the one that has the title San Diego Water Shed. I think that he should have also posted some information about the site and to also post the websites URL.

Expert Information

Well all that we need to do to get is get the questions done. The Expert Lady called me back to give me her e-mail address, so we need to get the questions done because she wants to see them in advance.

Call The Guy

I realized that I wouldn't be able to call the expert on our topic this weekend to set up a date so i'll just have to wait until Monday next week so that I can call them. Other than that I think that we are keeping up with our assignments.

Aztec Art

I think that these shows the different types of art that they made. The Statues that they made back then were ussually made out of Limestone. Both of these statues are gods. The one on the right is the Aztec Corn Goddess and the the statue on the right is goddess Cihuateoti.


Aztec info

The website that I said that I found is a very good source for finding informaiton on Aztec Art. But I'm wondering is I can still use it if I can't find some of the information on the site to make a cite. If not then no worries I have other sited that I have been using.

San Diego Water polution

I've found some web addreses that I have already shared with Raul. Most of the information that I have found is from the San Diego Watershed. Because we are only focusing on the differences in the quality fof the water we only need section 3 of the report.

http://www.projectcleanwater.org/pdf/wurmp/sdr_2006_annual_report.pdf

What I'm seeing is that the water quality in the San Diego river has increased alot from the report that they did in 2003. Just because the water quality has gotten better doesn't mean that there still isn't any pollution in it. A lot of the pollution that is in the San Diego river is sewage. Also alot of the city's storm drains flow into the river making it even more polluted.
Check back soon for more of what I found!!!

People on Bikes!!!

Last night on Friday I coming home from my youth group my dad and I were going up the hill by the Frisbee golf course and saw a bunch bicyclists riding down the hill. My dad was afraid that he was going to him one so he slowed down. One of the guys that was leading the group of 300-400 bikers stopped in front of our car. He started yelling at my dad to stop the car so he did. Them the guy started to yell to the other bikers to hurry up that he has the traffic stopped. Once he said that I saw two police cars with their lights flashing on the top of the hill where most of the bikers were. As my dad and I heard the sirens we looked at the guy. When he saw the cop cars he let us go.
When we got up to 30th and Upas Street by the Jack in the Box we heard sirens racing down 30th. We were stopped in the intersection because there was a back-up of cars. The cop cars raced in and out of the traffic going down to the Florida street turn on ramp. Once we saw them go by my dad and I looked up and saw a helicopter flashing its search light on the bicyclists that were fleeing the scene when they heard the sirens.
Almost all night long we saw bicyclists riding up and down our street trying to get away from the police. It was a crazy night!!!

Aztec Indian Information

This week I've been looking for some websites that give me some interesting information on the Aztec Indians. I have found a website about the Aztec Indians thats i think that others in my group will think that is interesting. The websites has many different articles containing information about the Culture, Religion, Civilization, Daily Life, History, and ancient Aztec Warriors.


I also found some cool pictures:
