Biometric Security
http://www.google.com.co/imgres?hl=es&sa=X&tbo=d&biw=1440&bih=799&tbm=isch&tbnid=fH6_ERgUhRpfYM:&imgrefurl=http://www.infiniteunknown.net/2011/03/02/california-biometric-identification-and-automatic-immigration-check-for-anyone-arrested/&docid=Cr9q_vJhP32sXM&imgurl=http://www.infiniteunknown.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/California_Biometric-Identification-And-Automatic-Immigration-Check-For-Anyone-Arrested.jpg&w=609&h=480&ei=mBe2UOr-Lobl0QHvhIHICg&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=408&vpy=360&dur=4393&hovh=199&hovw=253&tx=101&ty=97&sig=116957480277380606203&page=1&tbnh=146&tbnw=186&start=0&ndsp=30&ved=1t:429,r:17,s:0,i:133
What I know about this topic:
What I know about bio metric security is that is is used to permit or denies access to a specific place or applications using one's fingerprint or another part of the body that is unique to a specific human being. A specific technological tool reads the fingerprint or any other part of the body and if it recognizes the person it will allow it to pass. If not it will denied access. Other parts of your body can also be used.
Questions I have
- What other parts of the body can be used in bio metric security?
- How would people use it in their daily lives?
-In what circumstances would it be used?
Helpful links
Bullet point list of what I have learned about Bio metric Security
-It can be used in the eyes
-It can be used in ones face
-It can be used in your whole hand
-It can be used when you are entering a place
-It can be used to access your computer
-It can be used to turn on your phone
-It can be used to extract money form your bank account
-It can be used to substitute credit cards.
-It can be used to identify a terrorist in an airport or elsewhere.
Short Summery of what I learned
Today I learned that bio m, metric security will become an important part of our lives in the future. I is already being used in airports, in computers and many other places. In the near future it will be used to replace credit cards and retread money form bank accounts. Some machines that use it are phones and computers to turn them on and to log in. Bio metric security can also be used to identify a person in any place, for example if a terrorist is in an airport he will be detected thanks to bio metric security. Bio metric security can also be used in your eyes, face,hands and DNA. This relates to my life because many things around me will use bio metric security in the future and this way many things will be avoided. At school bio metric security is already being used to enter and exit school almost at every entrance. In the future it is likely that I wont use a credit card but instead use mu fingerprint or my eyes to pay at a restaurant.
Questions I still Have
-How will it be used to track down people by the fingerprints or eyes if these devices are not connected?
-
How will ypu prevent people from getting plastic surgery and avoiding the law and the system/

College Exploration on Naviance
Two colleges that I know about and interest me are:
1. Yale.
2. Harvard.
Areas about colleges that matter me are:
Brown University | Cornell University | Yale University | Harvard University | |
| # of students | 8,500 | 20,000 | 11,700 | 27,600 |
| Retention rate percentage | 97 | 96 | 99 | 98 |
| Applicants accepted percentage | 9 | 18 | 7 | 6 |
| Private vs Public | private | private | private | private |
| Urban vs Rural | Small urban area | small urban area | small urban area | small urban Area |
| Location | Providence Rhode Island | Ithaca New York | New Haven Conneticut | Cambridge, Massachusetts |
| Type | Traditional University | Traditional University | Traditional University | Traditional University |
Last Quarter;s GPA IS 3.5
Average GPA TO GET INTO THESE COLLEGES IS 3.72
According to my last quarter's GPA I am getting there. In order to get into these colleges I need to get a higher GPA =.This quarter's GPA IS 3.8 if I continue to work like this I might have a chance.
From this activity I learned that it is tough to get into competitive schools. My GPA which is acceptable and close, is still not enough to get into all four of them. I would have to work to get my GPA up in order to get into these competitive schools. This will change my habit as a student because these facts pressure a lot people. I will become more organized and start demanding only 4s to my self. I will also re-organize my life in order to get the necessary GPA. I also will have to dedicate more time of my life to shool and less to other things. If I was able to get that GPA in the first quarter without doing any effort of any kind, I might have a chance to get the required GPA if I do My best.

Today I learned how to use Photoshop to Photoshop a video by downloading it from the internet. I learned how to modify the people that are in the video. I also learned how to adjust the light in the video
and how to adjust sound. How to break down videos and also how to combine different videos in one using Photoshop. I learned how to add special effects to a Photoshop video and also how to modify voices and different sounds in the video.
This image is a good example of how to Photoshop a video using Photoshop.com. This website is also really useful when it comes to photo shop both pictures and videos. This website can also do everything that Photoshop the program can do. maybe even more.

What are colleges looking for in a strong applicant
Links
Summary of what I found
I found that collages and Universities are looking for in an applicant. The main things they wasn are grades, and your scrores from tests such as the SAT. They also look for extracurricular activities. The fact that a students is involved in extracurricular activities shows that a student manageshis or her time better.They also look at your discipline as an important factor. The less detentions you have the better you will look to the universities. Reaserch shos that universities are more likely to accept an older person. Ex. 19 vs 17. This would be because of his or her maturity and life experience. Universities are also more likely to accept foreign students. This means that a foreigh student is more like;y to get financial aid and be accepted. This is because collages want to have as more cultural diversity as possible. These are the toughest universities to get into in the world:

- What different kinds of nanotechnology are there?
Links
http://www.crnano.org/whatis.htm
This was a helpfull link because, it explains in simple terms what nanotechnology or nanotech is.
http://nanotechnology.com/
this was a usefull link because It explains how can nanotechnology be achieved.
Things I learned
- The term nanotechnology was introduced in the 1980's
-Originally it meant to create computers and motors as small as uni-cellular organisms.
-Today it means to create superior machines at molecular level.
-It can be used in the future to cure deseases like Aids.
-Ir could also be used to clean the oceans from severe water polution.
how will nanotechnology will affect my life.
Nanotechnology will not affect my life in the nesr future. But when it does in at least 50 years from now , it will be able to cure mady deadly deseases , like a pill cures a simple cold. It will also be able to solve many environmental problems.
question
how far has this reaserch gon.

Google 20% Project
For my google 20% project I would like to learn to photoshop a video. I would like to be able to photoshop people and animals into viedos. How to make someone apear on a video , without taping him. I would also like to learn how to change sounds and add sounds to videos. Another thing I would like to learn is to alter images that are alredy in the video. A good example of this would be to change skin tone or to make someone fat or thiner. I would also like to learn to change the backgournd of the video. I would like to learn how to change a video completely without filming another one.
For my presentation I would like to first show all the videos I have photoshoped. I would do this by first showing the original version of the video and afterwards the photoshoped version. This way I can make clear what kind of changes you cam make to a video. After showing the bdifferent viedos I have photoshoped , I will photoshop a video infront of the whole class to show them how to make these changes, on a video. All of the videos I photoshop will be uploaded to youtube and link to a website that I will create, specifically for this project.
