Posted by kylee On May - 23 - 2010ADD COMMENTS

Toy story 3 coming soon!

Andy is now a teenager and is about to head off to college and his toys, Woody (Tom Hanks), Buzz lightyear (Tim Allen) are worried about their future.

Andy plans to keep Woody and put the rest up in his attic but his mom accidentally throws them in the trash. The toys think that Andy is throwing them away on purpose.  

Jessie (Joan Cusack) thinks the toys should take charge of their own destiny and convinces them to stow away in a box full of other toys headed for donation to Sunnyside daycare. While Woody tries to save the toys he realizes they are in a donation box. He tries to rescue them but before he can Andy’s mom puts Woody in the box and closes the door.

   When the toys arrive at Sunnyside they meet new toys like Lotso (Ned Beatty), a pink teddy bear who is the leader of Sunnyside toys and a smooth talking Ken doll (Michael Keaton) falls in love with Molly’s Barbie doll (Jodi Benson).

   The toys are set on starting a new life in the daycare, except for woody who tries to convince them that Andy hasn’t abandoned them. Woody tries to escape, but ends up being taken home by a little girl named bonnie, who takes him to meet her own toys including Trixie the Triceratops (Kristen Schaal), the rag doll Dolly (bonnie hunt), a totoro doll, a thespian hedgehog Mr. prickle pants (Timothy Dalton), a clown toy named chuckles the clown (James Anthony Cotton), a stuffed unicorn named buttercup (Jeff Garlin), and a peas-in-a-pod Doll. Chuckles tells Woody the horrors of Sunnyside daycare and Lotso.

   Before long, the other toys find out through Mrs. Potato Head’s (Estelle Harris) missing eye that Andy is actively searching for the toys after noticing they are missing, and they realize how much he still cares for them. To make matters worse they also find out that their new friends aren’t as friendly as they thought. When woody returns to the toys they come up with a plan to return to Andy’s family but Buzz is damaged in an escape attempt. The Toys try to reset Buzz, only to make him revert into a Spanish version of his old self, much to the other toys’ discomfort and Jesse’s amazement.

  Now the toys must all work together to get woody home before Andy goes off to college.

‘Thunderstruck’ great song by AC-DC

Posted by cowan On April - 20 - 2010ADD COMMENTS

Thunderstruck by AC-DC is a great song.  This song is one of my favorite songs that they played.

The introduction is my favorite part of the song because they are playing the guitar in a really cool rhythm.

“Alice in Wonderland” the movie is rated PG.  The movie is a a3-d show.  This a good movie for every body.

The previews are very interesting. The movie is about this girl name  Alice who tumbles down, down, down a rabbit-hole one hotsummer’s afternoon in pursuit of a White Rabbit.

She finds herself in Wonderland. There began the fantastical adventures that will see her experiencing extraordinary changes in size, swimming in a pool of her own tears and attending the very maddest of tea parties.

Wonderland is no ordinary place and the characters that populate it are quite unlike anybody young Alice has ever met before. In this imaginary land she encounters the savagely violent Queen, the Lachrymose Mock Turtle, the laconic Cheshire Cat and the hookah-smoking Caterpillar, each assurprising and outlandish as the next. The show started in 1865 from a book and become a show for kids in 1903

“Clash of the Titans” is a storyboard movie. The struggle for ultimate power puts men against king and kings against gods.

In this movie  a war between the gods themselves could bring destruction upon the world. Persues born of a god but raised as a man failed to save his family from hades the vengful god. Persues sets on a dangerous misson with a brave group of warriors to the underworld battling fearsome creatures along the way to defeat hades before he can overthrow zues and obtain ultimate power.

The begining of the computer

Posted by quinn On April - 20 - 2010ADD COMMENTS

Signs of the first computer first started in the early 1600s it was called the abacus it could multiply and add but not subtract. In 1820 Charles Xavier Thomas de Colman invented the arithmometer it was able to add subtract multiply and divide. Charles Babbage was the one that in the 1800s created the true ancestor to today’s computer; Ada Byron King was Charles Babbage’s programmer and today considered the mother of computer programming.

Babbage’s design for the Analytical Engine was never produced it however had the four main components for today’s computers input, storage, processing and output. The problem with early mechanical “computers” was they were mechanical and easily broke. What made today’s computers possible was the introduction of electronic components the moved fast and on their own.
