Semester exam

 1. She wrote its a beautiful day and I can't see it.

 2. It made me feel really sad, because the world is such a beautiful place and if you are just unable to see the true beauty of it then what is left is just hearing.

 3. I think to show us to one, to be kind to others, especially the disabled. And two what other people will have to go to for the rest of their life and how grateful you should be to have the ability to see and hear things. But also how just changing words, or rewording can make such an impact on a what you are trying to portray in your writing.

4. To say something that will actually get them interested in reading the paper. Not many people enjoy reading but write or say something that will interest the to actually read it.

5. Through what the people thought, the facts that were given, and ways how the wolf could not have blown the house down if he had asthma.

6. No, not at all. The three little pigs were known as the victims of the story. And then their was the big bad wolf who would blow their house down.

7. A spokes man for the police.

8. The covered over; the big bad wolf being boiled alive, is killing an intruder ever justified, huff and puff stimulation, riots spark reform debate, and a public outrage as mortgage defaults soar.

9. They didn't cover how the pigs got the big bad wolf in their pot. Like did they invite him over and then killed him? Or did they kidnap him and then killed him? That is the information that we would no know.

10. They didn't offer their opinion, they were there when the spokesman for the police was stating the reason for what the pigs did to blame the wolf.

11. Yes

12. Not just cover the person we are told to interview, go out there and get others and what they think about it.

13. THAT DEADLINES WILL EITHER MAKE YOU OR BREAK YOU. That is literally one of the most important things, as well as making sure whatever you sign up for, that you can take it. So do not pile a bunch of things on yourself especially if you are a busy person and are involved in many things. Its not fun to be stressed out worrying about the paper so go and help others especially if you are not doing anything because there is always something we can do to fix the paper and get it to more pages. And the more we get done together the less everyone is stressed and the less Mr. Reeves is on the class. 

14. I can make sure to plan ahead and think more about my schedule to ensure that i can help the paper to be the best that i know it can be with all these amazing writers in this class. As well as trying to sign up for more things if i know i can get on it. And to get on my deadlines a lot better. As well as trying to get the word requirement more up there so it will save energy and time for the editors to get their pages done on time. Also it will make the paper look a lot better if i get more words in so we can be up there with the really good newspapers.

15. It would be nice if we could get those pad things for art pieces to make the art look better and also to get the process to a lot faster. And i would know that doing art is a little bit challenging on the computer so if we had those they would probably make things easier. And  one thing i thought i would like to do is write more commentary pieces. And i would like to take some pictures, but i don't know if i would be able to some times since i do not have a car, and my schedule is sometimes over the place since we are going to transition into the season for lacrosse. 

Biography

I’m Amaya Marquez, I am a sophomore, and this is my first year on the newspaper staff. I joined newspaper to try something new, meet new people, and of course to take pictures. I enjoy baking, and playing lacrosse. I am on the Bowie women’s Varsity team as well as the Outlaws travel team. I inspire to be a professional baker, and to have my own bakery when I’m older. One thing I am excited to see in the future in Newspaper is to see if i will like it enough to pursue through the rest of high school.

First Days Newspaper Scavenger Hunt

1. - Digital clocks in the halls
    - JBHS painting in the cafeteria along the border of the ceiling
    - Map of the school/wings
    - The round circled lunch tables ex. A hall and F hall


2. "Its pretty big, bigger than my other school."
    "I know that the classes are longer."
    " It's different since my classes were forty-five minutes." - Zyniria Ross, Junior

    "The bell schedule, and the new maps help."
    "My classes are good so far, so it's all good right now."
    "Even though being a senior might seem nice, it is scary but exciting."   - Steven Demerson, Senior


3. "Fit, fit is 2 days a week."
    "Getting out a little later is nice."
    "Several new faculty members."   -Coach Ables

    "They painted a lot of the walls, which just makes the cafeteria look better."
    "I like the addition to the clocks."
    "But it's good not to be the youngest anymore."    - Michael Jefferson, Sophmore

Since Bowie has decided to upgrade a bit of the little things it makes a little easier to be on time, and ready for class. Bowie has upgraded the old regular clocks, so it makes reading the clock a lot more easier for some people. A new thing that most people are happy about is arriving at school later. Even though it may seem like only ten minutes, though that can make a difference for some people.

As well as something that might help the incoming freshmen, a map of all the halls and wings of the school. So it is right there if you need a refresher of the halls. Another thing that had to change up is the bell schedule now that the students will arrive at 9:00, pretty much the entire schedule will change up.


4. "Football, the JV and Varsity teams have already started practice. As well as Volleyball. I addition soccer practice has began too.

"It's going good, but I have to share a locker with three people."
"I am looking forward to playing with my amigos."
"But I am not looking forward to running a lot."    - Michaela Amaral , Sophmore

"I will definatly try and be the best that I can."
"I would not want to look forward to losing though."
"But I think football season will be great."             - Matthew Siffentez, Freshmen

So far, things in women's soccer is going pretty well, but one thing that bothers Michaela Amaral is having to share a locker with three other girls, which may get a little too cramped for some people. Practice for football may be going well from what we only see from the guys on the field, but the games have begun. The first game when on last Friday, that had the crowd going wild.

HDR Photography

1. What manipulations to the camera will you need to make to create an HDR image?

AEB isn't 100 percent necessary, but without it you'll have to adjust your camera settings manually between each shot taken.

2. What equipment will we use to take this type of image?

- Camera, with an Auto Exposure Bracketing function
- Tripod
- HDR photo-blending software

3. What is the reason someone might take an HDR image?

- They would want to try to attempt to get a picture where it looks as close as it can in detail to what the human eye can see. The human eye sees the most details, so trying to capture it with a photo.


4. What can we expect to happen with the images once we merge them together, what will we see that we might not have seen with just one photo?

- They would probably look at bit hazy, and not like a very clear photo. It might look a bit more sharper with one photo, rather than merging them together to get that hazy effect.
