Product Review: iLife '11

Bryan S. here, today I'm going to be doing a product review of iLife '11, it's a new software from Apple Inc. Enjoy!

Overview: iLife is Apple's entertainment suite, and '11, I think is a great update. iLife '11 features five applications: iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand, iWeb, and iDVD.

Price: The Regular Version will set you back 49.00, the Family Pack costing 79.00.
(Just about to buy a Mac, iLife '11 ships with it.)

iPhoto '11

iPhoto '11 is is a great part of iLife '11, mainly because EVERY single one of your photos is just there. With the all new Full Screen mode, you can see those photos even larger, because, with photos, bigger is better! Editing is simple, yet full of familiar features. Faces and Places, which both debuted in iPhoto '09, are even simpler. You are going to LOVE this app.

iMovie '11

iMovie '11 is great, Apple added more pro features, while keeping it basic and not to complex. In other words, it's just right for the average consumer! Movie Trailers are a great addition, and projects are still great. It's all you expect from Apple, a product that works!

GarageBand '11

Oh, GarageBand, one of the easiest to use music making apps EVER. Apple has added better recording features, more tracks to use, and pure greatness to this product. I'm very pleased with this update, I think you Mac users will too.

* iDVD and iWeb, were not updated in iLife '11....

Overall I rate this product ★★★★★/★★★★★, it is great!

System Requirements

To use iLife '11 You must have all of the following:

Mac Computer with an Intel processor
1GB of RAM
5GB of Disc Space
DVD Drive for installation
Display with 1280x768 Resolution or Higher
Mac OS X v. 10.6.3 or later

Internet Connection for some features like uploading and iWeb.

I think that this consumer software is a GREAT buy. I highly recommend it!

By The Way, if you are interested in Apple products, I suggest Scott M.'s "Apple Product Of The Day", as I myself have found it helpful when buying and fun to read!

Thanks for reading, I'm looking forward to your comments.

Once again, this is Bryan S.

Goodnight!

COMMENT FROM MRS. PENA

Hi Students! I hope everybody is having a wonderful Thanksgiving break! As I have been reading the comments to your blog posts I am sad to see that some of the comments have started to become more negative and sometimes even rude. These negative or rude comments MUST STOP! I will continue to monitor the posts and comments very closely, and if needed I will disable comments completely and/or shut down the blog completely for students. Please keep everything positive and nice!
Thank you,
Mrs. Pena

News of the wierd by micah

A mute bank robber was well just doing his job so he went into a bank but since he was mute he couldn't tell the banker that he had a gun. So he had to wright him a note but unfortunately his only source of paper was his well check book, so he tried to cross out his name and address so he quickly scribbled down a note and gave it to the banker. The cops later found fond and arrested him.

Apple Product of the Day by Scott Morris

Today, the Apple product of the day is the iPod Shuffle. Apple changed the iPod Shuffle design last generation because I guess a bunch of people didn't like the design. The last generation looked taller and thinner like the first generation iPod Shuffle. Now they changed it back to the normal stumpy design. I like the regular stumpy design better because the stick deign wasn't as portable as the stumpy kind, and the iPod Shuffle is all about portability, it's for people that are always working out or something or even people that just don't want or need all that fancy technology. The iPod Shuffle comes in 2 GB pricing in at only $49. The shuffle comes in 5 colors: silver, blue, green, orange, and pink. The shuffle has a cool feature called Voice Over. That tells you what song is playing and what artist it is by. To get Voice Over, click the button at the top in the center. I really like the iPod Shuffle and I have one, but it is a couple generations below. If I where to buy one from this generation, I would get the silver one.

Animal of the Day

The animal of the day is the Empala Ram
Marlie Frasier
Empala rams spend most of the year in bachelor herds, but become territorial, noisy and aggressive during the change. Mating males usually gather together in groups of 15-20. With head raised, mouth open and lip curled-a display of behaviour known as 'flehmen'-a male lion captures the scent of a female on heat.

Myspace (even though pretty much no one uses that anymore) :(

A Work of Art (I think)


I really want to say thank you to Bryan and Ms.Hartley and I'm a bit surprised to think that Bryan looked at this post! Anyway here are my work of arts this week.

I am strum, strum, strumming
I am hum, hum, humming
While I sit in bed
Wishing I had pencil lead
I am now sing singing
My voice is ring ringing
Then I think up a song
And start strum, strum, strumming.
I am click, click, clicking
I am think,think,thinking
I am sitting at my desk
Did I do good on the test?
Then I de-de-cide
To wri-wri-te
And that's how this poem began.
This halls us up
Drum,drum,drumming
Oh the bongos are a humming
He quickly jots some notes
This strange man upon a boat
I wonder if he senses me
Out upon the sea
With his bongos drum,drum,drumming

Criss cross criss cross
Goes the spider near the moss
I said a criss cross criss cross
It does something then with a toss
the web is finished
criss criss cross

during all the tink'ring
when I noticed life

I turned to see
if somebody was
watching me 'cuz
that would prove me fatal
then the teacher called on me
said pay attention

Apple Product of the Day by Scott Morris


Today, the Apple product of the day is the iPod Nano. The new iPod Nano is way smaller and now has multi-touch. The Nano has a 240 by 240 pixel resolution TFT display. The Nano starts at $149 for the 8 GB model and $179 for the 16 GB model. The Nano comes in 7 colors: silver, black, blue, green, orange, pink, and red (Product Red). Some of the accessibility options are: Voice Over, White on Black colors, and Mono Audio. For Voice Over, it comes with 29 languages. The Nano has a great battery with 24 hours of music playback, and it takes about three hours for it to fully charge. The Nano also has an FM radio and the radio has live pause.
Over all, I think the iPod Nano is really cool. I don't actually have one, but I have used one before in an Apple store and I really like it. If I were to buy it, I would by the color black with 16 GB.

daily dino

i need to tell you a few things:

1 is that that 1st blog on deinonychus was mostly copied of a website, so my apologies

2 is that the rest is written by me and is based on my knowledge of dinosaurs, mostly gained from the incredible work of the paleontologist Dr. Thomas R. Holtz, Jr. and other
paleontologists.

3 is that I have been confused on writing the blog, so I might have copied a blog I wrote twice, and that blog I did, titled diplodocus [not daily dino] was supposed to be a daily dino

Animal of the Day

The animal of the day is the humpback whale
Marlie Frasier
The humpback whale is found in almost all the world's seas from the polar regions to the tropics. It is known very well for it's leaping. The humpback whale often leaps clear into the air out of the water making a loud splash as it falls back into the water. If you ever go on a cruise look through the port hole and you just might see a humpback whale in the middle of his famous jump. You also might hear the whale's famous song, a multi-tone series of shrieks and deep moans.
It might sound weird but the ugly looking humpback whale is one of the most beautiful animal to swim through the seas.

Zilker Fashionista


Hello world, I'm here with the latest P.R. report and I'm sorry it took SO long but it took me a long time to build up the courage to write this specific report because it's a tragedy! Well I know what you probably want to know and that's who won but to know that you actually have to READ my blog! All the collections were amazing but my favorites was obviously Mondo. Here is something I would have said to Andy though,"The color palette is a little repetitive."Something I would have said to Gretchen would be,"It looks like these models are going on a safari to clean the dung this is a car crash of a mess!" Then to Mondo I would say,"Your patterns make this look effortless, but I think your garments need a little more sophistication."

By the way I loved all the costumes on Friday and it's a big disappointment that this is our last year for most of us that we get to dress up, I would tell you what I was but that would totally give away my identity. My fashion tips for this week are... skinny jeans forever, fabulous flats, sweaty sweat shorts, and of course skirts with belts I have only seen Finley and one other person do this come on!Well give me a comment or anything if you have a question, idea or opinion on P.R, Oh and don't forget they have a P.R on Thursday and they bring all the contestants and models back! After the season ends I will just give comments and fashion tips.The winner of Project Runway is.... Gretchen errrr! Also on more thing leave a comment on which faculty member's costume or wig was the best and I'll post the winner!
-Make it work in the world!

Apple Product of the Day by Scott Morris

Today, the Apple product of the day is the new MacBook Air. The new MacBook Air now comes in two 11 inch models. Apple is now making the Air as they would an iPad. Instead of making it with a computer hard drive, they are making it with Flash storage. And the Air now has instant on, so as soon as you open it, it turns on. Apple has figured out that for a computer, the best way to have multi-touch is through the trackpad, and if it has multi-touch on the screen your arm would get tired. The 11 inch models start at $999 and $1,200, the 13 inch models cost $1,299; and $1,599. The 11 inch model of the Air has a 5 hour battery and the 13 inch has a 7 hour battery. With the Air's multi-touch trackpad you ca scroll, swipe, and you can basically control what you do on the computer. I have used the MacBook Air before and I really like it. If I were to buy one, I would buy the 13 inch model that costs $1,299. With the Air, it also has FaceTime so you can video call people that have iPhone 4s, iPod Touch 4th generation,, or people on another MacBook. It also has mission control, which helps you see all of your windows at once.

Poems (Clarissa helped a little)

Halloween

Halloween has gone,
Witches are flying home,
Goblins are wandering,
waiting until next year,
Ghosts are floating
and zombies are roaming,
Candy is all gone...

WOW!!!!!!!!!
