Its basic technology is the same as DVD Video, but it also includes computer-friendly file formats. It is used to store data. This product should supplant conventional CD-ROMs in the near future.

DVD-R

Its capacity is 4.7 Gbytes. Originally designed for professional authoring, a version for general consumer use is now under development. As with CD-R, users can write only once to this disk.

DVD-RAM

This makes DVD a virtual hard disk, with a random read-write access. Originally a 2.6-Gbyte drive, its capacity has increased to 4.7-Gbyte-per-side. It can be re-written more than 100,000 times.

DVD-RW

Similar to DVD-RAM except that its technology features a sequential read-write access more like a phonograph than a hard disk. Its read-write capacity is 4.7 Gbytes per side. It can be re-written up to about 1,000 times.

African Proverb 7

Written on 7:44 AM by naadir

            "Knowledge is like a garden ,if its not cultivated ,it can not be harvested".


I believe that if you study hard that your knowledge will grow. Also this can mean if you study more you will understand life and it's ways. Your skill level will be on the top. Things you been knew people did not know at all. The test and questions giving to you it will be easy.

I think that when you work hard it will pay off when your pay check comes. If you don't do bad thing it will not heart your brain. When you do those things wrong maybe your brain will mess up. So you should stay away from the those things so it will not come to you. Example M.Marica say study everything every night.

African Proverb # 6

Written on 7:42 AM by naadir

                                                 "A person who knows proverbs can reconcile differences".


 I believe this means that if a person figured out a problem the can figured out a differences. Also this mean that when problem between a person can help  with the problem. Such as when when know your work and stop your self from fighting .
You can say you know how to play but know when to stop.

If you you know your work  thins means that you can never play in school. When play will not play when you need to study. Such as I will study then play . Also will never play in class. This is what I think about the proverb.

african proverb #5

Written on 7:25 AM by naadir

                              " The fool  speaks the wise listens."                                                                                                                                                                                                                   


  This proverb means to me that if speaking when someone is talking you will never know what is going on. When you talking to anyone when someone is giving you important information  you should be the wise one and listen to that person. It can be about a test that you need to know but you are talking and when the test comes you will be looking stupid. That person will fail the test because you wanted to talk.

If a  anything bad happen  to a family member you will ever know . Also there can be a fire and you was talking to a friend you both would died. This why you need to listen at all times. Listening is one of the most important thins you should know  in everyday life.

This also means that if you are in love you do not go around tell their business. Love can be family love or relationship love. So if you love someone that you can trust them with anything and everything . For example say if you are in a relationship and you love that person but person hits on you or anything wrong to heart that's not love.


You can use love to help with someone problems. Such as the fill down  you can listen and understand what they are saying. When your children fill that all you do say bad things you can so them you do love them. You can get married and have child or children.

I would have a skateboard  contest for $100,000. It will be 20 people in the contest . It will be 4 rounds of skating. The kind of skating is street no vert, no bowl.  The rules are no rules. Also  anyone of any age can come and skate.  There will be pro skaters there to watch or skate. 

I will give the skateboarder the money because it's hard to find places to skate. Some of them are poor some have money. Maybe the winner will make their own park. Also they can their own skateboard line. This is what I would do with the $100,000.

08-09 School Year

Written on 6:52 AM by naadir

   I feel that my goal  this  school  year is to do my best. For example in math I got a  C+ this year I want a A+. On a result my grades did not show as I wanted to last year.  Clearly this year I want all A's and this is my main goal.  This year I want to my best and  don't play around like I did last year.



I believe that I did  not study or listen at all. Maybe if I did  not joke around and  not listen I would not of got C's and B's. Therefore the benefits we get is that are computers are up to date. We also have tables that clean some schools have gum under the tables.  Are  have  hot or warm food some schools have frozen food. In fact my weakest subject was social studies , my strongest 
subject is math.
