w00t NBA Finals are here!!!

Eastern Conference Champions Boston Celtics vs Western Conference Champions Los Angeles Lakers

this matchup has revived the Rivalry of the Celtics and Lakers from the 1980’s.

I’m rooting for the celtics, and I don’t think anyone wants a Championship ring more than Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, and Paul Pierce, they are all experienced veterans, who deserve a ring but were not given a chance before. But now they have. They are all close to becoming world champions, and I don’t think Garnett will let a Ring slip off his finger, but the game will be very rugged, facing the Lakers. Lakers dominated the defending champions in 4 games to 1. If they want to compete with Boston they have to perform at their very best. If Boston Shutsdown Kobe bryant, The series will favor boston, but if kobe gets going early on in the series, it would give the Lakers momentum to beat boston.

In my opinion

Celtics Win in Game 7

4-3

Progress Part 4

Here’s what I accomplished this week:

               During this week I’ve made alot of changes to my advisor’s blog. I’ve originally had 6 different pages, with different info on each, but with some helpful advice from Mr. Stengel I’ve changed it completely. I only have 3 pages now, an FAQ section, a Cooking Equipment page, and a Homework Calendar. I’ve also added more categories, so the blog is more usable, and less cramped. I’ve got a majority of the cooking definitions finished, but I had to stop shortly, because I misplaced the list.

Here’s what I plan to work on next (Be specific on short term goals):

               I have 4 more things to teach my advisor next. Since schools coming to an end, I have to work at a faster rate. So by next week, I have planned to finish the cooking definitions and finish a cooking procedure post. Next I’m going to embed a Poll and Survey into her blog to her liking and show her how to use google calendar.

80% Completed

1. Teach my advisor how to use all of the blog’s functions so, she can use it without much assistance.
2. After getting enough information on what my advisor wants, I will search for widgets or media relative to the class, and save it.
3. Personalize the Blog to her liking, and then add the content
4. Finally Review the Blog over with my advisor

           During this past week I’ve learned about Survey’s and Polls. Survey’s and Polls are very important in any webpage, because it is a social interaction tool that helps the Creator know how the visitors feel about a specific topic. Polls can be about anything, with no correct answer, it is just letting people voice their opinion. I’ve added a new catergory called Polls and Surveys, Although I haven’t made a survey yet, I’ve made a poll about basketball. I like this tool alot, the code that i’ve embedded on that page came from a very cool site called PollDaddy.com you can either be a member for free or pay to get bonus features. Top companies use this application on their websites such as FOX news network, PC World, and many others.

                  Also, I’ve noticed a big change in EduBlogs. Hooray!! Its a new version!! Yes Edublogs 3.0 is out and better than ever. It’ll take some time to adapt to this new setting, but Overall I think its a good change, before everything was clustered in different tabs, but now there is few tabs and it has improved its usability alot.
