Self awareness

for this assignment am using a segment from another post i made called New Background here is the segment corrected in the manner specified.

The Missing Eye
When Date was a child he got smallpox in his right eye robbing him of half of his eye sight. Some sources say he plucked out the eye himself when a senior member of the clan pointed out that an enemy could grab it in a fight. Others say that he had his trusted Officer Katakura Kojuro gouge out the eye for him, Because of his missing eye his own mother Thought he was unfit to take over as clan leader and started favoring his younger brother Kojiro as heir. It is speculated that she tried to poison him one night while serving him dinner. Masamune consequently killed his own brother in order to come to power

Killing reading.

1) Use your own experience to explain why you agree or disagree with these statements.
I agree with this statement because sometimes the school teacher picks a book only 10% of the class well enjoy to read making the other 90% not want to read it and not learn anything from it like proper punctuation and such. I also think it destorys some students reading is because some people like fiction others like non fiction and some enjoy books/novels that dont fit into these catagorys.

2) Do you feel reading becomes more and more work the higher you progress in school? Please refer to your own experience to answer this question. I do think so because at around grade five you dont need to read seven sheets explaining one assginment and do three notes to understand what you are doing. For example in my sience this year we had to take a total of two notes to do three worksheets.

3) Would you enjoy reading "with no strings attached"? In other words, you read what you want but don't have to write a report or assignment once you've finished? Explain.
Yes I would because then I can read at my own pace and not worry about having to finish it on a certain date so i can do the test or report on it. For some books it takes me a bit to read them and if they interest me enough like the narnia series i tend to read them all before doing any sort of report on one of them.

4) Imagine that you have just finished the best book you ever read. How would you want to share some of your reading experience with your classmates and teacher? (e.g. create a poster about the novel, conference with the teacher, present to a small group of students...)
First I would draw out the main character or the character i liked the most then post it on a few clan community sites and tell them about the character and the book to encourge them to read it as well. i would write a small essay about it and show it to the teacher for class though.

Bramuda triangle

Today I read about the Bermuda triangle and the disappearances of the ships and planes. The book says that it was not because of some super power that ships and planes vanished it was because of the horrible weather conditions.

The ships and planes by what the book says traveled in bad weather conditions causing them to be hit by the massive waves and fast wind causing boats to sink and planes to drop to the sea.

In my Opinion I kind of believe in the supernatural so for me there is a possibility that it might be some force or something like that. I myself have never traveled through the Bermuda my self so I don't have any personal experience on the subject but I think it might have some supernatural and some just climate that causes all the disappearances

How to make a s series of paragraphs. Step one you make a T chart of the information on the subject for example we well do samurais and ninjas you well make a chart of what is good about them so for example we well do samurai first

samurai- Well armored skilled sword masters Noble fighters in japan.

Ninja- Assassins uses stealth highly moble.

Now you favour one of your two choices in 3-5 paragraphs you get the ideas from these paragraphs from your ideas in the chart. for this example I shall use samurai.
First you start out with a title stateing what side you take so for this we well use the title
Why Samurais are better then ninjas
then you start with your first idea for samurai it was well armored so we well make the following paragraph

Due to the samurai's armor being well made they can withstand more attacks then a ninja making them more stronger in a battlefield.This may give them advantages as well such as the abilty to take more ranged attacks (arrows) to there body with out dieing.

this paragraph favours the samurai over the ninja because of the armor now we well do the same paragraph but favouring ninja this time

Due to a ninja's light armor they are more moble in combat making them alot more faster in combat and this speed increase could give them the upper hand when fighting a enemy such as a samurai.

you well do this for all your ideas and there you have it a series of paragraphs

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How to make a good news report


For this example we well use a picture of bill gates for our news reports picture most news reports have a picture that the story relates to so here is the picture

now you well start out with a catchy title that well attract the readers eye for example for this picture we well use the title "New Technlogy created!". The next thing you do is start a sentance kind of interduceing what you are talking about or what the report is about a imporatant detail is to never voice your own opanions for exmple never use "I think" or "I thought" or anything around those lines. for the first line of this example we well use this "Bill gates Owner of microsoft has desgined a new product he calls it the floppy disc" this interduces the person in the picture and describes what he is doing in it. The rest of the paragraphs you explain what the thing does and were it was made and when for example "Bill Gates created the floppy disc in 1998 in washington dc" that information is not the correct information but it is what it should look like for it gives a time a place and a person. The last thing is news reports should be about 3-5 paragraphs in langth to give the reader alot of information on the subject

Picture Of The Day

I decided to add a picture at the top and well change it daily to a different picture and I well caption what the picture is and who the people are in it. for the first day it is Masamune Date so Congratulations Date Masamune.

New New BackGround

Ive updated the background for the third time and this time it is of the game Lineage 2

Lineage 2 is a MMORPG (
Massively multiplayer online role-playing game) just like the game World of warcraft.


Lineage 2 was created in Korea and is only for the Pc (Personal Computer) and was launched in 2003 in Korea and was launched a year later in the United states, Mexico, Canada and other Countrys.


The First lineage linage 1 was launched in 1889 and was massively popular in both Korea and other countrys.
and had Graphics similar to the game Diablo 2 witch was created by Blizzard intertainment.


Lineage 2 was made before WoW but the gameplay of both are quite the same you make a character the races of both games are quite unique. For Lineage you get to pick from Orc,Dwarf,Human,Dark Elf,Elf, and there most newest race the Kamael. Wow also has a choice of races such as. Blood elf,Orc,Dwarf,Human,Troll,Elf,Undead and Dranei,


The Main Difference between the games are simple. On WoW there are two factions horde and alliance you can only party and chat with people from the same faction. In Lineage there is no faction rules so all players can speak with each other trade and make clans with each other. Another big difference with these two and what separates Lineage 2 from other games is the huge range of classes Lineage 2 provides to its players. Wow has a total of 8 classes to play and they are Hunter,Paladin,Priest,Shaman,Death Knight,Druid and Mage. Just like other mmorpgs wow has a small range of classes compared to Lineage Lineage has a total of 41 classes to choose from and each class is unique to a certain race. and they are Human classes are Warrior Human Knight Rogue Human Wizard Cleric Warlord Gladiator Paladin Dark Avenger Treasure Hunter Hawkeye Sorcerer Necromancer Warlock Bishop Prophet Duelist Dreadnought Phoenix Knight Hell Knight Adventurer Sagittarius Arch-Mage Soultaker Arcana Lord Cardinal Hierophant Elf classes are Elven Knights Elven Scout Elven Wizard Elven Oracle Temple Knight Swordsinger Plainswalker Silver Ranger Spellsinger Elven Elder Eva's Templar Sword Muse Wind Rider Moonlight Sentinel Mystic Muse Elemental Master Eva's Saint Dark Elf Classes are Palus Knight Assassin Dark Wizard Shillien Oracle Shillien Knight Blade Dancer Abyss Walker Phantom Ranger Spellhowler Phantom Summoner Shillien Elder Shillien Templar
Spectral Dancer Ghost Hunter Ghost Sentinel Storm Screamer Spectral Master Shillien Saint. The Orc Classes are Orc raider Monk Orc Shaman Destroyer Tyrant Overlord Warcryer Titan Grand Khavatari Dominator Doomcryer
Dwarf classes are Scavenger Artisan Bounty Hunter Warsmith Fortune Seeker Maestro. And the Final race Kamael classes are Trooper Berserker Soul Breaker Doombringer Soul Hound Warder Arbalester Trickster Inspector Judicator. Lineage 2 has the most classes to choose from in any MMORPG and ontop of that a character who reaches level 80 can even Subclass with another class from another race or there own (this is the same for all reaces apart from the kamael who can only learn from there own race) so you may own a Orc with a Elf class if you wanted too. Lineage 2 also has A large amount of content to play with for example there are two different lands like WoWs demon world and normal world Lineage 2 also supports more features such as clans being able to own entire citys and areas through castle battles. There are also tons of events that happen in the game and such.
Another note is Lineage 3 is to be released soon.


Links to videos of the classes of Linage 2 (note the first one dose not have Kamael because the Kamael was not made at that time)

Mark Of The Date Clan

New Background and Title Picture

I have replaced the old background and Title picture

If your wondering the character in the Title is named Date Masamune. Date was a important Figure in Japanase history and is also in a anime series named Sengoku Basara.

Link to Sengoku Basara opening

History of Date Masamune

Date Masamune or 伊達 政宗 Lived from September 5, 1567 – June 27, 1636
He was Japanese samurai of the Azuchi Momoyama period. Heir to a long line of powerful Daimyo in the Tohoku region, he went on to found the modern-day city of Sendi. An outstanding tactician, he was made all the more famous for his missing eye, and Masamune was often called dokuganryū (独眼竜), or the "One-Eyed Dragon"
At the age of 14 in 1581 Masamune led his first campaign helping his father fight the Soma family
Date Masamune's army is recognized by their black armors and gold head gear.

The Missing Eye

When Date was a child he got smallpox in his right eye robbing him of half of his eye sight. Some sources say he plucked out the eye himself when a senior member of the clan pointed out that an enemy could grab it in a fight. Others say that he had his trusted Officer Katakura Kojuro gouge out the eye for him. Because of his missing eye his own mother Thought he was unfit to take over as clan leader leader and started favoring his younger brother Kojiro as heir. It is speculated that she tried to poison him one night while serving him dinner. Masamune consequently killed his own brother in order to come to power




Date Masamune's Christianity Beliefs

He showed sympathy for Christian missionaries and traders in Japan. He allowed them to come and preach in his provinces. Masamune himself was secretly a Christian convert. Even though he funded and promoted an envoy to establish relations with the Pope in Rome, he was likely motivated at least in part by a desire for foreign technology
once Tokugawa Ieyasu outlawed Christianity Masamune reversed his position, and though disliking it, let Ieyasu persecute Christians in his domain. For 270 years

Date Masamune's Greatest Historical Achievement

The Greatest Historical Achievement of Date Masamune was the vary first Japanase ship to travel the world. The ship's name was Date Maru He used European Building techniques. The ships Main mission was to sail to rome and deliver a message to the pope

Lord of the flies response

1. Did you know that "Lord of the Flies" is another name for the devil? The title of the book suggests that the author was interested in evil. Interestingly, all the evil was committed by the children and the "Lord of the Flies" never appears. Describe some of the evil you witnessed in the film. If you did not see the whole movie you can discuss any evil you have heard of in the news. Some of the evil was when half of the children spelt into two seperate groups and one become some Tribal group and the other was still trying to find a way off the island.
another is when the tribal group killed the two kids the first one was by accedent but the second one was on purpous and killing is high on the evil chart.

2. How responsible do you think the children are for what happened? At what age is a person no longer a child and fully responsible for his or her behaviour?
I dont know the age but ill geuss at 18 and only one *i believe* was around that age and the only real adult had head tramua and pretty much killed him self but i would have to say it is a tad bit there faults since we never saw how they crashed we can't tell how reponsibale they are

3. What do you believe? Do people behave because they know that it is the right thing to do, or do people behave because they are afraid of consequences?
I think people are afraid of consequences because some people might kill someone if they didn't have to spend most there lifes in prison

4. Whose fault was it that Piggy died? Was it simply the boy(s) who rolled the stone on top of him or was it the whole gang?
the Whole gang because they are all barbarians

5. Do you feel that people act differently when they are in a group? What is the difference? Why will people do things as a group that they would never do on their own?
because in a group they can blame each other and get more done

Boys And Girls Should Not Attend Separate High Schools



In my opinion they should not because for instance one school may have a better gym then the other or a better computer lab etc. Some people may not learn how to talk to the other gender because they never wore with them. it may put some strain on the econamy having to provide funding to more schools.

For example if say the girls school has a better gym the boys school may be a abit angry at this making some backlash in the students and could cause some problems. This could lead to some school fights.

If the two genders spend there whole school lives away from each other they wont know how to act or communicate with each other making things pretty awkard.

Two different schools can also cause a econamy problems and it might cause lack of funding or some problems with the country. This could also cause a global backlash and might make another depression.
