There's a lot to learn about a person through their car. The way they keep it and the things in it can really each you about their personality. This past weekend Aly Steinle was interviewed about her car in order to learn more information on who she is and what she does.
The car was messy, filled with many of Steinle and her husbands belongings. Already the car has shown that Steinle is not very organized with her things. She has things scattered, but everything placed where she can remember and find them.
Some empty juiceland cups were found in the cup holders of her car.
Steinle explained, "Yeah, I'm kind of a health freak, so love that place because all they have is healthy stuff.
Steinle's diet was discovered just by some trash in her car. It is a very healthy diet. She's a vegan, and doesn't eat sweets every other month with her husband.
"I normally can't eat most of the sweets anyway, because I'm vegan and majority of the sweets have dairy, so my husband and I just decided to eat of and on months, because it's healthier and makes us feel better anyway."
After some more searching around through the car, lots of papers were found.
"Most of them are scripts. I'm super big into theater, so I've been involved in a lot of plays. All of those are just some old scripts," Steinle explains.
Steinle has been into theater for a long time. She just recently graduated from St. Edwards where she majored in musical theater. This summer she will be performing in the Zilker play, Shrek the musical.
Steinle also had several pieces of clothing lying around on the back seats.
"The other [clothes] are for me to change because I part time live in my car. Like half of my wardrobe is in here incase i need to change for work or rehearsal or work," Steinle says.
Just searching through Steinle's car has taught a lot about who she is. It explained her interest in theater, her diet, and how se keeps her things. A car is where a person spends a lot of their time, so i can teach a lot about them.

Neighbors 2: Sorority rising: EW review
http://www.ew.com/article/2016/05/17/neighbors-2-sorority-rising-review
1) Entertainment Weekly
2) Leah Greenblatt
3) 7
4) It still has lots of hilarious moments that will make you laugh
5) It never really has any heartfelt moments and is only ever raunchy
6) The girls never develop cohesive personalities, and the slapstick-heavy script—credited, tellingly, to five different writers—quickly tosses out any semblance of pacing, pinballing from one raunchy punchline to the next. (The goofy sweetness of Rogen and Byrne’s interplay has also been sidelined, and the visual gags are a lot gaggier, in both senses of the word.) You’ll probably laugh hard more than once; Sorority Rising is still rich in bikinis and bong rips and boner jokes. It just doesn’t have much heart. C+
Jane Austen Fits Whit Stillman like a glove in the witty Love & Friendship
http://www.avclub.com/review/jane-austen-fits-whit-stillman-glove-witty-love-fr-236454
1) AV club
2) Mike D'Angelo
3) 8
4) The cast does very well and makes the audience have a lot of laughs
5) There wasn't much of story and it lacked emotion
6) The result sounds roughly 80 percent like her and 20 percent like him, a pretty delectable ratio. What’s lacking is the deft plotting and emotional complexity of Austen’s great works. There really isn’t much of a story here—the main question is whether Reginald will heed his sister’s warnings regarding Lady Susan or fall into her trap, and he’s too ill-defined as a character for the answer to seem consequential. It’s fun to watch Lady Susan bulldoze her way through 18th-century propriety, but an entire film of wry breeziness is a bit like a seven-course meal that’s all sumptuous desserts. There’s a reason why Austen left this manuscript in the trunk.

I'm going to start with Pictures of the brownie mix and then adding the ingredients into it with a new picture for each new ingredient. I'll then stir the mix and that'll be a small video. Then I'll put them in the oven with probably a small video. I'll take them out again with a small video and show mushing them into the bowl with several pictures of mushing more and more to the sides. After that's done, I'll take the cream out and add a scoop with each new picture. Then I'll put it in to freezer and wait over night. The next day I'll take it out and add hot fudge with a video of pouring it and adding sprinkles and whip cream. I'll end with cutting a side and taking the first bite.

Movie review project
Captain Phillips review
In the movie 'Captain Phillips,' Tom Hanks plays the main character, Captain Phillips as the captain of the ship Maersk Alabama. The plot of the movie starts with Captain Phillips getting ready to go on a trip to Africa to transport food and cargo to the people there. Phillips arrives at his ship and they take off for the African coast. Not too long into the journey, he speaks with his righthand man, Shane Murphy, played by Michael Chernus, and they talk about the area they'll be traveling through which includes a spot containing lots of piracy along the Somali coast. They soon spotted two small boats following them. The pirates caught up to them and used ladders to aboard the ship. The pirates soon got to the Captain and had guns up to them demanding money. The crew eventually got ahold of the head pirate, Muse, played by Barkhad Abdi, and demanded to have their captain in exchange. The pirates agreed, and they would leave in a lifeboat on the ship, but during the trade they pushed Phillips in their ship and took off. In the lifeboat, the others pirates, Bilal, played by Barkhad Abdirahman, Najee, played by Faysal Ahmed, and Elmi, played by Mahat M. Ali, follow Muse's directions to keep Phillips alive to get more money from the US in exchange. This movie not only shows Phillips weakness, but also the pirates at the core and that it was something they had to do for survival. A theme showed in this movie would definitely just be the competition for survival in such poor countries like Somalia. This movie would fit viewers 13 and up, because it can get very intense and sad in ways that kids younger than 13 may not understand the whole extremity of it. This movie is very intense and really shows in the scenes how brutal the events really were. The ensemble effort sets it all up to make the audience feel as though they are there witnessing the event. It is a great film that hit me hard with lots of emotion. If I had to rate it, I would give it a 10 out of 10.
CE 6.2
1) 56 percent
2)a provision that says a license holder carrying a semi-automatic handgun on campus cannot have a chambered round of ammunition.
3) If he stays there, the Mexican gov is risking that he could escape and if he did that would be horrible on the Mexican gov
4) A camera connected to an app for owners to check on and play with their pets while they're away from home.
5) nyquist
Yes, I have used Lyft and Uber both. I've used them many times with my friends to get places when no parents are available. Some experiences were better than others where the drivers were more friendly and engaged in conversation whereas others were just silent, or some had snacks for grabs or chargers, but really at the end of the day i didn't really care because we had a ride to where we wanted to go. I think ride share is a very good thing for our community, because it can help the citizens get to places if they don't have rides which is a huge help seeing as how big our city is, so walking isn't normally an option. It also can help on nights when people can't drive themselves home because they've been drinking, so it can prevent accidents happening because people will have another option to get home. Using the ride sharing opposed to taxis is nicer, because it's just linked to your credit or debit card, so you never even have to worry about having cash on you. You can also see who your driver is so that you know your getting in the right car and that your driver is someone your comfortable with. I don't think they should be held to the same standards regarding safety, because the ride sharing shows you the car you're getting into, your driver and what they're rated so that you can know a little who you're riding with.

Movie prep
1) Captain Phillips, the pirates, the marine rescuer team
2) The plot of the story will probably start out right before they're a boarding the ship and introducing the different men that will be on the boat. The story will then lea onto the boat ride and everything fine and normal. They will then realize they trouble of the pirates attacking and a lot of action will start.
The pirates will capture the captain, and the crew will attempt to get him back and fail. Then, it will show the horrible days and how awful they are to Captain Phillips. It will probably be switching back and forth the boat scenes and men that are trying to rescue him. In the end, the rescue team will kill the men and rescue the captain.
3) It was a very huge event, because that isn't a normal thing that happens in everyday life with Americans.
4) The pirates wanted to steal the ship and what was on it most likely.
Movie research
1) Tom Hanks, Barkhad Abdi, Faysal Ahmed, Mahat M. Ali, Catherine Keener
2) PG13
3) Paul Greengrass
4) Kevin Spacey
5) BAFTA award, American Cinema editors, American film institute, 2 Black reel awards, London films critics circle award, Golden reel award, San diego film critics society
6) $218.8 million
7) 93% on rotten tomatoes
8) New York Times said that it was a "jittery thriller even as it also deepens, brilliantly, unexpectedly, into an unsettling look at global capitalism and American privilege and power."

This story surprised me a lot. Water is something that we all need, and they put so many peoples' lives in danger by not doing their job well. I hand' heard about this before now, but it scares me that this is happening and so many people could be poisoned when they think they're just taking a sip of water. The people that knew they were poisoning should definitely be punished. They were hurting people knowingly and that should put them in jail. I think if it were to get to the government that the people who knew about it should be punished more, but the ones who worked it should still be punished for not doing a good job like being fired or something.

The most beautiful smile I ever saw happened after a very rough day. I think that's maybe part of why it was one of the most beautiful smiles, because amidst all of the struggling I had just gone through in my day, I was reminded of the happiness people can feel.
I was going through a hard time with a bunch of my friends and questioning whether they even were my friends at the moment and struggling a lot with my grades. In fact, I was just coming from taking a test that I was quite sure I had bombed.
I was so ready to just finally leave school and forget about all that had happened in my my day and throw it behind me, but I had to sit and wait longer to wait for parents because I am still a child who isn't capable of driving herself home. As I was waiting, I saw one of my friends. He was on of the friends that you're not quite sure whether to say hi and you just take turns looking to see if the other is looking to wave, but you just end up going through a very awkward moment. But, there was no one else there so why not talk to him. We talked for a while as he sat and waited for his girlfriend and me for my mom.
After a conversation full of dumb questions just to keep from awkward silence, his girlfriend shows up. I really am thinking nothing of it because it's just another person out of the three thousand something at our massive high school, but I soon learned that she would not just be another person in my life.
Right away from me being introduced by her boyfriend to her, she shows so much joy and smiling. She talks to me with so much enthusiasm as if I'm her best friend that she hasn't seen in years, and yet, we had just met. She had so much energy and a fun attitude towards absolutely everything. She soon made me forget that I was even in a bad mood. Even after I had left and gone home, my good mood continued.
I think that's what life is about, honestly. Living it all in such a positive way and showing joy to others. I think people should live it happy and kind to where others are excited when they see them. So, I made a decision my self to live that way. I'll live everyday as happy and grateful as I can, and maybe I'll impact some people like the one girl did to me. And although maybe I'll never see her again, I thank her for showing me a better way to live and showing me her beautiful smile.

Photography:
1)My favorite photo is of Chris Lomelli from Guitar strings bring forth passion
1A) I like that its taken in a location other than school, because it shows its something he loves to do outside of school too
1B) rule of thirds
2) The photo of the winners of Bowie idol
2A) you can't really even see one of the winners even though thy should be the main topic

CE 5.3
1) schools would be funded by the cry and save a bunch of money
2) by 2022
3) villanova 77-74
4) New Zealand, because it's gorgeous and I've always wanted to go there
5) I don't really mind the idea of it. I definitely have wanted to post a longer video before, but I wouldn't want people to post dumb, long videos n my feed, but I can just skip them so I don't really mind
Short answer: I haven't really kept up with all of the debates to have a super song opinion on a person for president, but I have heard enough to have an opinion about some things. I know that Trump, Clinton, and Sanders are in. I don't think this country is becoming more united. I think election time brings out th worst in people, because we're all disagreeing and no one takes it well. Everyone running talks horribly about the other candidates, and our country definelty gets more divided. The president is in charge of making all of the people in the country feel safe and sound in our country and lead us to a united country, and thats why I don't believe trump should be. He is trying to convince us that we'll be safe by him kicking everyone but white people out, but that would be tearing our country apart. I think Sanders could be a good president with the equality view, but I disagree with some things like the money disrubution with taxes. Its good I'm not voting, because i still don't really know and eel like no one could really for sure be president.
I haven't really been watching Walking dead, but all of my friends have said that it was Glen. Some other's have the theory of Aaron, but I think it would be more of a main character since it was the end of the season and they made a big deal about it. Many of my friends brought it down to Glen nd Darrell.

Spring Break
The friday we got out of school I went over to my friends house where we had a bonfire and just hung out to celebrate the beginning of spring break. I also felt absolutely horrible, because I decided to eat all of the most unhealthy food in the world in those couple hours of the night. The next day I decided to try a juice cleanse because of my horrible eating the night before which lasted about 3 hours where I joined my friends at them mall and ate good food. Some advice: don't do juice cleanses. They're terrible. I had accepted that I was going to do a lot of eating on this break. I mean why not? It can be a break from healthy eating too. That night my friends and I hung out and stayed up for one of my friends birthday. The next day, a group of friends got together and went on a boat on the lake for my friends birthday. It was so much fun. It was super relaxing really which was great, because I had been going and going so it was nice to jut rest in the sun. The water was very, very cold, but I numbed up to it along with some others that could stand staying in the water. Majority of the day though was just resting on the boat. We just listened to music, and surprise surprise: we ate more food. After the boat fun, we drove to Hulu Hut and yes food. It was fun to catch up with some friends from other schools. After dinner, we drove back to the birthday girl's house and hung out with a couple more people to continue the celebration. The next day I went home for a little since I had not been home since friday, and my mom likes to remember I exist every once in a while. I just hung out there for the day and then met up with my friend and walked to the 360 bridge which was supposed to be followed by us going camping, but apparently you aren't allowed to go camping in a greenbelt, so since parents exist, the plans fell through and I just ended up meeting some new friends and then going home to my friends house. The next day, my mom came and picked me up and we went to an event at SXSW that her friend puts on every year. It was actually a really fun time. I hadn't seen her friend in years, and he used to be a regular in my life, so it was fun to catch up and see him. Other than that, I heard a couple awesome new bands which I added to my spotify before I even got home. Once we got back home, my mom made us dinner, and I showed her my favorite movie. I don't really think she liked it as much as I wanted her to, but since she's my mother she had to tell me she loved it to make me feel good. The next day, my oldest brother picked me up and took me to lunch. Ever since he got married in December, I haven't been able to see him as much. I discovered one of my new favorite sandwiches and had a nice talk with him. My relationship with each of my siblings is very different and unique, and mine and my oldest brother is very silly, but my brother can be very serious, so it's fun to make sure we still have those rare moments of serious. I then went to my friends house and just hung out and learned of a new TV show to add to my never-ending list of shows that I'll probably never get to watch fully through. That night, I went home to my dad's since I hadn't seen them since before break started and it was already half way over. Once I got home, I resumed my Harry Potter marathon that I had started when I was sick a week before when FreeForm played all 8 of the movies, and I just now had more time to watch the rest. By the end of the night, I had one more movie to go. The next day, I went to kayaking with some friends and learned that kayaking is not some of my friends specialty after watching an hour of them zig zagging across the water. We then went back to my friend's house and cancelled our meet up plans to watch movie with some friends and had them over instead because of the insanely loud storm going on outside. My parents then picked me up again that night, and I finished my last Harry Potter movie. Then next day nothing really happened until that night where I went to my friend's who threw a little end of spring break party. The next morning I went to church and then to a family friend's wedding. It was super fun to finally see them together after routing for them for three years. I then had to sleep early because of the dreadful remembrance of something I had never thought about all break. School.

1) Clinton- 67% and Cruz- 41%
2) 600
3) supporting the phase 3 trail, and expand with other new drugs
4) 6th annual republic of jack party and Jack Allens kitchen
5) Baylor girls beat UT girls, Kansas boys beat UT boys
1) No, I don't think it is right, because first of all the company belongs to Apple, so they are the ones in control of their products. Also, that is a major invasion of privacy into a hue majority of the US, and citizens should feel free to be comfortable and not worried because it's possible for people to see what they do on their phone.
2) No, i wouldn't want anyone to access the information on my phone. I have conversations with people on my phone and jet for people to think that they're free to just see people's personal lives and information isn't okay.
3) Yes, I think if there is a very big case where the FBI is trying to find information, then they can look on someone's phone if they are a suspect for being guilty. I think it kind of depends on situations.
4) No, my parents don't really check my phone. They trust me for the most part.
5) No, I don't think parents should do that to their children. I think that parents should be able to trust their child, because then the kid can feel like their parents do trust them because if straight off the bat a parent doesn't trust their kd, the kid can be hurt by it. I think if the kid were to show reason to why their parent shouldn't treat them, then I think it would be okay.
6) I think the age is getting younger and younger nowadays because technology is becoming a bigger thing, but I would say getting a phone should be like middle school. The kids still need time to experience some childhood before diving into their phones all day.

Magazines Part II
Early Magazine covers
Made differently than normal, and really just focus on putting titles and table of contents. Some copies looked more like book covers. They later added pictures or more like drawings to some on the covers. These types were very simple and most in black and white.
The Poster Cover
This kind of cover introduced magazines that put artists' drawings on the front of their magazines. These covers would normally take up the whole page almost like posters. There weren't many words included on the front. There was normally just the title and a short explanation of what it was about.
Pictures married to type
These covers really focused on the balance between their words and their main focus (the model/picture) They would include a model a lot of the time and they would somewhat "interact" with it by overlapping it, and all around the model would be the titles and writing to stories in the magazine, and they would kind of shape the model and just go all around them.
In the Forest of words
This cover deals with a lot of words to draw people in with their words. They would create different poses and photos too to also draw them in. They would include lots of titles, and some even larger than the title. In these, a lot of the time the words overlap some of the image.

My Favorite Cover
 |
Harper's Bazaar, March 2014, Lady Gaga
"Eyes closed, surrounded by a cut-out Carolina Herrera neckpiece, Lady Gaga looks like she's ready to explode. Photographed by Terry Richardson, what compels about the cover is both the graphics and the rare stillness of a superstar. Here, cut-out means a knockout."
I really like this photo, because it focuses in onto the girl's face, but not in such a plain way. It still all angles in to show what the subject is, but the rest of the picture still has a contribution and a flare. They make her look very white, but it kind of adds to the snowflake type design, as if she were the center of it. They are trying to show the uniqueness of each individual superstar, and I think it's cool the way they explain it. Like snowflakes, they're all so much different. The way they decorate the picture really draws your attention and it's very pleasing to the eye.

CE 4.3
1) Zika is in Travis Country, It's linked to birth defects, it has been found accretive in saliva and urine, pregnant women are at risk, there's no vaccine for zika
2) They have an experiment to use more renewable energy, and they're putting in a huge solar plant
3) electrician, plumber, massage therapist
4) Denver Broncos 24-10
5) Cynthia Lee rides on the oil can harry's float in the 2013 gay pride parade in austin
1) My favorite was pedal through the powder, because it;s just a pretty simple picture. It's all white, and then an older man is just riding a bike through all of the snow. I find it a little silly honestly.
2) I think probably an interesting photo would be shadow dancing. I always knew about groundhog day, it's just so weird to see that people actually participate with a groundhog to say whether it;s spring or winter. I find it so random.
3) The most boring picture is probably counted by hand. It does get a little more interesting as you read what the sheets of paper are, but overall just if you're judging if it's pleasing to the eye, it pretty boring looking.

Self Portraits
2. Play with Eye Contact
3. Break the Rules of Composition
 |
| Casual portrait I chose this picture, because it has a lot of simplicity and even though the main subject isn't the lake, it still really shows in the back but still has simple in the front. |
 |
| Environmental portrait I like this picture, because it's simple and how its taken and shows the length of the guitar down to the man that plays it. |
 |
| self portrait I like this picture, because it makes the boy fit into the background, and they blend the dark with dark and light with light and then right at the horizon it changes with it. |
2) a casual portrait is a picture with just a simple background and a simple picture and an environmental digs a little deeper into the subjects personal life and is taken in their comfortable environment.
3) get good lighting and a good area

Free Write
There are three children sitting on a log near a stream. One of them looks up at the sky and says...
"What is life all about? What will become of me? I wonder what's bona happen. There's so much life left to live. I have so much to experience. My life has just begun and I want to learn and live. I want to see the world and have a family that loves each other. The kind that may get in fights, but only to make up because they're minor and they love each other too much to stay mad. I want to really truly know who I am. To find my identity and what my destiny is. Not because of what someone tells me to be or because I have role models and follow in their footsteps, but I want to find me. The only me there will ever be. To go through the worst times and the best, and to learn from it all. To grow everyday and learn about myself through it all. I want to fall in love. I want to fell so strongly about a person and not even know what to do with all of the love I have for them. Maybe we don't say together, But I'll have the experience. I'll have had experienced being in love and really learning to love another. The thought of life is exciting, which is why the thought of death is that much scarier. All of the dreams I have are to last an entire lifetime, but what if I don't live long enough to see it all? Death takes it all away just like that. What if I never see the world? Or have a family? Or fall in love? I'll die before I even start to live. Life is so exciting, but so easy to lose."
"No Brooklyn," says another on the log, Paige. "You can't treat death like that. We're here on earth living. We have a life that we can live. Yes, maybe can lose this life, but we haven't yet. Our life is here right now, so live it while you can. You don't know about ten ears, or one year, or even tomorrow, but you've got right now, so live it as fun and freely as you can. Don't give death the option to take you before you begin to live. Start to live right now. You can't think of death as something to hold you back, but as something to push you forward and encourage you to live."
Brooklyn remembered that night and what Paige had told her. She went out and lived her life just as she wanted, and when death came, she did not fear it because she knew that she lived her life well and to all she ever wanted from it.

photo manipulation and ethics
A. This story explains the crops that photographers have done on photos that are unacceptable to do. It explains them sometimes make it look more dramatic or different than what was really happening. The photographers would be fired, but not everyone learns their lesson until it happens to them.
B. This type of cropping and photo editing isn't allowed, because the news is supposed to give all facts, and editing pictures can make others assume that what happened was either more or less intense than it was, and the news needs to say the whole truth.
B. This type of cropping and photo editing isn't allowed, because the news is supposed to give all facts, and editing pictures can make others assume that what happened was either more or less intense than it was, and the news needs to say the whole truth.
I think this photo was unacceptable, because it is making this man seem even more black than he is just for an intense story, but they don't have to lie about his skin.
I think this photo was acceptable, because it was just changing a feature to make her teeth look better which really isn't going to affect much.
Composition part 2 and discussion
 |
| symmetry and patterns- in this photo there is a building on both sides of the smoke showing symmetry |
 |
| Viewpoint- This photo was taken from below to show the boy holding his paper high. |
 |
| depth- This photo has various layers to it because of the smoke all around it that you notice and in the middle of it all is a building that you can see, so it just depends on what you focus on |
 |
| cropping- the photographer cropped this picture to just show this woman to kid of take off all of the surrounding intensity to just show the intensity of her |

CE 4.2
1) 83,591
2) swapping land
3) rose quartz an serenity
4) no, I don't really. I think its cool, just kind of random, but I mean if people like it or it calms them then they can do that and I think it's good they've found something they really enjoy.
5) The mass gallery's stay cation, because I think it's cool how they play around with the shapes and the color. I think that would be cool to see their different art
Scientists think part of the cause is the large El nino that took place. Of course also all of the greenhouse gases obviously are contributing a lot to increasing global warming. A consequence because of global warming are more rainstorms. I really don't worry about global warming. I know it is very bad and getting worse I just never really think about it much, because I guess I'm used o heat all of the time and so it doesn't worry me that much. As a whole we could start to do more to keep the earth's air good by public transportation and other things that will help and not hurt the atmosphere. Yes, I definitely think global warming is a major issue. Our seasons will start to morph together, sand our atmosphere will not be a fun and the most happy home.

Photography
1) I liked the picture in Opportunites down in Florida, because I think it is overall a pretty cool picture the way it look with the trees reflecting down on the water, and it draws your attention, wanting you to read it.
2) My least favorite picture is the picture for Light up the night, because I think the way it was taken, the lights look just blurry and they shouldn't all blend together so that people can really see the reason everyone has been waiting to see the beautiful tree.
3) I would like to do the movie review section, because it seems fun to give my opinion on what I think and let others know why or why not to watch it.
4) I rate photography good. There was a lot of art with the photography which I liked
I think interviewing Jackson Walker would be a good idea for the 4th issue, because he is getting ready to play the lead in the school play which is a big deal in the theater and music department.
