According to the attached website, the main god in Judaism. In Judaism, everyone obeys God's commandments, and live their life by it. Also, they live ethically. And also, they focus more on the current life, instead of the life they will have after death.

How Hadrian Helped and Hurt Rome.

     I, Hadrian, the great Roman Emporer, am finally retiring. I decided to write a story on my life and my influence on the Roman Empire. During my reign, I did many things that would be an important part in Rome's history that will be forever remembered. The greatest of those acheivements was building Hadrian's Wall. But however, some people think that some of the stuff that I've done over the years, has eventually led to hurting Rome.
     By far my most famous acheivment as Emporer, was building Hadrian's Wall. This wall was a defensive fortification in Roman Britain. In the Empire, it was the strongest and most heavily guarded border. Although the wall was mainly used for military reasons, but its many tunnels have been used for trading and levy taxation. But no matter what it was used for, it was and will always be as important to everyone in Rome as it is now.
     Another great acheivement that I have accomplished is rebuilding the Panthenon. I rebuilt this building to honor all of the Roman Gods. After I had finsished the construction of the Panthenon, I rebuilt the Temple of Venus and Roma, one of the largest temples in all of Rome. I rebuilt it for Venus Felix (the bringer of good fortune), and Roma Aeterna (Eternal Rome). Although, these two buildings might not be standing many years from now, I would like everyone to know that I had rebuilt two of the greatest buildings ever.
     However, there have been things in my life that I have done that most people would feel were failures. The biggest one of these was supposedely causing a Jewish revolt in 132. It is said that it was caused because I rebuilt Jerusalem. However, the revolt was said to have been cause when I did not allow for the Jewish people to be there except for one day a year. Because of this, it is believed that the Jewish people revolted which caused great harm to Rome.
     As I look back onto my life as Emporer of Rome, I remember doing great things for the empire. However, it is arguable that I have caused great harm as well. But overall, most people will remember me for building Hadrian's Wall. I just hope I'm not remembered for the Jewish revolt of 132. But in my poinion, and in the opinion of many of my followers in Rome, I have been one of the greatest emporers who will always be remembered.

Braziliian Educational System



A Brazilian School Uniform

     The Brazilian educational system has qualities that make it similar to America's, but also has special qualities that make it different from the American educational system. First of all, Brazil has three levels of education. These levels are fundamental, intermediate, and higher education. In the higher education level, there are two parts that are undergraduate and graduate. Also, infant education is another level added to the educational system. The infant education level is for kids that are seven years old or younger. The next oldest level is the fundamental level. This is for kids that are seven to fourteen years old. This level is spread out into eight years. Once you finish that, you move onto the intermediate level, which is spread out over three years. If you finish that, you can move onto higher education, where you become specialized in a certain
field. 
     Some of these levels have specific requirements in which you have to meet to be allowed in. In fundamental schools, you have to be at least seven years old, and it is mandatory for all kids seven to fourteen years old. Fundamental school is also free for all of the kids in that age group. For intermediate schools, it is not mandatory to attend, but if you do, you have three years of that and intermediate schools are also free. Higher education is also free in Brazil, but you first have to take a competitive entrance examination for whatever they are pursuing.
     The required classes in Brazil are similar to those in America. In fundamental schooling, students are required to take Portuguese, History, Science, Geography, Mathematics, arts, and physical education. In intermediate school, students are required to take the same classes, but they also have to take biology, chemistry, and physics. Recently, philosophy and sociology were added back as classes. For higher education, students take two to four years of classes that are part of the career that they are pursuing.
     A typical school day in Brazil isn't really like it is here. In Brazil, a school day lasts from 7:00 A.M. to noon. If it is a full time class, it will go on until 5:00 P.M. At night schools, classes are from 7:00 P.M. to 10:10 P.M. Each classroom in Brazil has a television and a DVD player that is used for education. And now, the Brazilian Government is buying the students a laptop. In Brazil, all schools have uniforms that usually just say the name of the school on it. The grading scale in Brazil is A, B+, B, C+, C, D and E. And the schools have intervals between every few classes that are about 30 minutes, where students can do anything.
     As you can see, the Brazilian educational system is similar to ours, but is also different from ours as well. One way that it is similar is that both Brazil and America is that we both have to take mostly the same classes consisting of History, Science, Geography, Mathematics, arts, and physical education. However, where we have to take English, Brazilian students have to take Portuguese. Another similarity is that we have the same levels of education, but ours is more spaced out than Brazil's. In conclusion, this is the basis for education, including, educational levels, requirements for the students, core classes, typical school days, and the similarities and differences between our educational systems.

Last Day in Norway

     Today, May 24, 2011, I checked out of my hotel for my final day in Norway. My first stop today would be to the Thyholttarnet Tower in Trondheim. At the top, which was 124 meters high, I looked down I felt sick over the height. This tower, built in 1985, also features a revolving restaurant that revolves once in an hour. Next, I went to Stiftsgarden to see an old building. Stiftsgarden isn't just a normal building however, it is the royal residence in Norway. This 1774, 140 room building used to be used to house the royalty in Norway. I remember walking around the building and it felt like it was talking me forever because it was so big. Finally, I went to the Trondheim Kunstmuseum. Here, I saw many different works of art. This 1850 building is Norway's third largest museum featuring Norwegian Style art. Before I left Norway, I stopped for dinner. For dinner, I had pizza at The Restaurant Egon. The price was 125 Kroners ($25.00 USD). On my way home, I traveled using the same airline I used to get here. I used the Scandanavian Airlines System. The cost was 16, 292 Kroners ($2901.00 USD). When I arrived in Pittsburgh, I drove home with all my memories of Norway.

Sixth Day in Norway

     Today, May 23, 2011, I checked out of my hotel to continue my trip. My first trip, is to the Ringve Museum in Trondheim. It is the only museum in Norway to feature musical instruments from around the world. I walked outside, and got to walk through a garden outside of the museum. Next, I went to The Nidaros Cathedral. This church had began to be constructed in 1070, and caught fire many times. But each time, it was rebuilt, mainly using the original Gothic-style, but it also reflects Roman styles. On the left side of the Cathedral, it shows a scene of of the crucifiction of Christ. It is mainly made of stone, and is decorated with stained glass windows. Finally, I went to The Trøndelag Folk Museum. The museum dated back to 1909, and featured 60 vintage buildings, and over 100,000 artifacts. Once I left there, I went to go an eat. For dinner I had a four-course meal of Norwegian-Styled food at Gammelbua for 400 Kroners ($72.22 USD). Then, I went to go and check into my new hotel. I chose the Best Western Chesterfield Hotel. The cost was 895 Kroners ($159.36 USD). Finally, I went to sleep.

Fifth Day in Norway

Saltstraumen Maelstrom from Overhead

     Today, May, 22, 2011, I continued my journey in Norway. My first destination, is to Vågå, where I will be taking a famous hike in Scandinavia. On this hike, I had to go up a hill, that was roughly 1400 meters high. After a made it up, I went east and passed the Bjørnbøltjønne and Bessvatnet lakes. Once I crossed those lakes, I crossed the famous Besseggen ridge. Once I got to the top, I became tired, and had to make my way back, but the trip was fun. Once I left there, I went to Saltstraumen to exprerience the worlds most powerful maelstrom. Every six hours, 400 million cubic meters of water speed up to 40 kilometers. The biggest one I saw, was around ten meters in diameter, and five meters deep. Once I saw this, I traveled north-east to the Lofoten Islands. Aside from relaxing on the beach, I looked at some historic buildings. One of those buildings was the Flakstad Church. This church was built in 1870. The next place was was Glapen Lighthouse, and it was built in 1857. When I left from there, I went to go to dinner. I ate at the Fiskekrogen restauraunt, and had fish for 225 Kroners ($51.00 USD). Once I ate, I left and checked into The Vestfjord for 495 Kroners ($88.36 USD). Finally, I went to sleep.

Fourth Day in Norway

Kjeragbolten Rock

     Today, May 21, 2011, I have checked out of another hotel, planning to continue my vacation in Norway. Today, my first stop in in Ryfylke, where I will be visiting the famous Pulpit Rock. This is the most famous attraction in Ryfylke, and towers 604 meters over the Lysefjord. When I was close to the rock, I traveled 350 meter up a steep, uneven route. When I finally reached the top of the rock, there was a big crack in it. The guides told me that it happened because of a glacier that had melted many years ago. Once I was done here, I took one of the many different hiking trails back to the road. The next place I visited was the St. Olav's Church in Avaldsnes. This prehistoric stone church was built in 1250 by King Håkon Håkonsen. Surrounding hte church, stand several obelisks, some standing seven feet high. As walked around the church and examined it, and then I was on my way to my final destination. The final place I visited was The Lysefjord. This place is known for its high mountains, and the most known one is the Kjeragbolten rock above the fjord. I decided to climb up to te rock, and when I got there, I was standing 1000 meters above sea level. I couldn't stand up there for to long, so I decided to come back down. Once I didn't fell sick anymore, I managed to climb back down and head back to a hotel. The hotel I chose was the Thon Hotel in Bergen, Norway. The cost was 671 Kroners ($121.82 USD). For dinner, I ate at the Enhjorningen Restaraunt, otherwise known as The Unicorn Restaraunt. I ate a variety of seafood for 280 Kroners ($50.42 USD). Finally, I went to sleep, and prepared for my next day in Norway.

Third Day in Norway

Atlantic Road

     Today, May 20, 2011, I am checking out of my hotel, and continuing my vacation in Norway. Today, my first trip will be to The Bøyabreen Glacier, in Fjærland. This glacier is one of the most spectacular ones in all of Norway. As I drove by the massive block of ice, I saw pieces of ice falling into the water below it, and making a giant splash. Some pieces were small, but others were about the size of a car. When I was done here, I went to travel over the Atlantic road. This road is 8- kilometers long and includes many twists and turns over the Atlantic ocean, connecting two islands together. Over the railing, I saw many different animals, like seals and whales, swimming through the water. The road has also been named a national tourist route. Finally, I ended my day, visiting the famous city of Ålesund. This city is known for its architecture in Art Nouveau style. Surrounding the area, are fjords, and the Sunnmøre alps. When I left from that area, I went to check into my new hotel, The First Hotel Atlantica. For one night, the stay was 1052 Kroners ($187.64 USD). For dinner, I ate at The New Orleans Resturaunt in Oslo. I ate classic, southern American style gumbo. The total price for the meal was 530 Kroners ($94.53 USD).Finally, I went to sleep.  







Second Day in Norway

The Briksdal Glacier

     Today, May 19, 2011, I woke up and checked out of my hotel in Oslo. Today, I will be traveling to three different places. The first place is the The Nærøyfjord and Aurlandsfjord. At this place, I chose to go on a cruise. The cruise cost 265 Kroners ($45.00 in U.S. currency), but it was worth it. The two fjords are the wildest branches of the Sognefjord. As I traveled through the fjord, I looked and saw huge, snow-capped mountains, with a massive waterfall streaming down the sides. When I got off the boat, I began to travel to my next location, The Briksdal Glacier. The glacier is part of the Jostedal Glacier National Park. The glacier slopes from a height of 1200 meters. I remember watching it as it traveled in between a big valley. To end the day, I went to The Sognefjellet National Tourist Route. This route is the highest mountain pass in Northern Europe. The highest point is 1,434 meters above sea level. As I looked up from the bottom of the mountain, I remember feeling so small standing next to the mountain. I felt as though I could be crushed by its size at any time. Then, I tried to go up the huge, scenic road that is 204 kilometers long. I only made it up a little but, but I did see some fantastic views. One of the views was another huge waterfall that was 229 meters high. I finally left and went to check into my new hotel, the Turtagro Mountain Hotel, with panoramic views of the mountains surrounding it. The cost of the hotel was 960 Kroners ($166.71 USD). For dinner, I ate at a restaraunt called Alex Sushi, and I tried a bunch of stuff I have never had before, but it tasted pretty good. The price was 550 Kroners ($95.00 USD). Finally, I managed to get to sleep, waiting for the next day.

First Day in Norway

     Today, on May 18, 2011, I am traveling to Norway. Today is my birthday, so I decided to go to three of the most visited attractions in Norway. Those three places are The Geirangerfjord, The Trollistigen Mountain Road, and The Voringsfossen Waterfall. My first stop was at the waterfall. This water fall is one of Norway's most famous waterfalls. The highest drop in the waterfall is 182 meters. 145 meters of the 182 meters is a direct drop straight down. After I left from there, I traveled to The Trollistigen Mountain Road, located 15 kilometers south of Andalsnes. Trollistigen inclines at about 9 percent and has 11 sharp bends and turns that twist up the mountainside. On the side of the mountain, a gushing waterfall cascades down the mountain. Once I was finished with the long, hard trail, I finished my day at The Geirangerfjord. This area is located about 100 kilometers from the town of Alesund. I went on a short cruise, and then walked up yet another mountain. Everyone of the trips had free admission, so I didn’t have to pay anything to get in the places. After a hard traveling, I went back to the hotel. For that day, I stayed at Hotel Union Geiranger. The hotel cost was $144 to stay. For dinner, I ate at the Nighthawk Diner. I had eggs and omelettes. The meal came with toast and carrot bread. The meal was 79 Kroners ($13.57 in U.S. currency). Finally, I went to sleep, enjoying my first day in Norway.

Witness account for the Trojan War

      My name is Acames, son of Theseus. I helped fight in the Trojan War alongside many other famous people, and this is my story. After nine long years in the battle for Troy, the Greeks could take it no longer. Most of us could fight no longer due to fatigue, hunger, thirst, and physical injuries. But somehow we had managed to keep fighting. Eventually we had destroyed or captured everything except for the main place, Troy. Troy was the center of the battle year after year. The Greek army could not get passed that massive, twenty-foot tall wall, but the Trojans could not drive the Greek army back. We tried everything to get in, but the defenses were too strong. This went on year after year, with neither side letting up, nor was neither side winning the battle. Finally, the clever warrior Odysseus came up with a brilliant plan. He instructed that a large wooden horse would be built. Some say Athena had given him the advice, but no one can be sure. The statue was instructed to be large and hollow. Once the artist Epeius had built the statue, several warriors were instructed to go into the horse. As I was getting in, I noticed that Odysseus was also climbing in, and I realized the whole purpose of the horse. During the time period the war took place in, it was accustomed to leave a gift if you had admitted defeat. So that’s what we did. And Greece was famous for its wonderful artwork, so it only made sense to give the Trojans a gift of art, and so we did. It seemed the rest of the army and I was in there forever, but suddenly we started to move. I was thankful because I had been trapped in there all day, next to twenty-nine other men, so I was thankful to finally get moving. Soon later, we were taken to the gates of Troy. Well, we tried to get as close as we can, without the Trojan archers shooting at us. When the horse was dropped off, I thought to myself, no one is going to believe that the gift was safe enough to enter the city, so I figured we would be stuck in there for a while. Little did I know, the rest of the Greek army was sailing away in order to trick the Trojans. Finally, the arches saw that the Greek army had fled and left the horse as a gift. Some didn’t trust that the horse was safe, but they were ignored. Finally, they had wheeled the horse inside, and I was ready to take part in the plan. Late that night, after all of the people of Troy were asleep, all thirty of us crept out of the horse. We then opened the gates as quietly as we could. When the gates had been opened, I remember seeing the entire Greek army waiting for us. They came back during the night when the Trojans were asleep. I remember feeling that now we would finally take Troy. Once the army was inside the gates, nothing the Trojans could do would help. The battle was mostly a blur for me, but I remembered some things. On my left, was Odysseus. He was leading the attack, slashing his mighty sword through every Trojan warrior we passed. I remember seeing fire in every direction. Soon later, we had finally conquered the city of Troy. The only survivors of the attack quickly fled from Troy. That night we had rejoiced with happiness and celebrated our important battle.

Biography of a person in history prior to 19000

     Acamas, son of Theseus, was one of the people that were supposed to be in the Trojan Horse during the Trojan war. When Acamas was little, he father was exiled from Athens. He and his brother was sent to live in Euboea. There, they grew into adulthood and became allies with with Euboea's king, King Elephenor. Before the war against Troy, he and Diomedes were sent to demand the surrender of Helen. During the war, he was supposed to be in the Trojan Horse. He was one of the thirty that fought in the Trojan War. It is not recorded if he survived in the war.

Practice Post

Hello everyone, I really hope that this blog finally works now because Blogger hasn't worked lately for me.
