                                       Youtube launches Site for Pakistan

Youtube users in Pakistan will be directed to a local version which will feature videos trending in their country.

They hope this will pave away for the work of local creators, musicians, and personalities to show their talent through the worlds largest video community.

This is seen as a possible step forward to end Pakistan's ban on youtube.

Pakistan has blocked many other sites before, such as Facebook. For two weeks the site was shut down, saying that the website contained what Pakistani authorities said to be bad content.

Blog - Post Assessment

One of my favorite places to have a meal is at Red Lobster. They serve different kinds of sea foods. They serve lobsters, shrimp, pasta, and others for dinner. For lunch they serve tacos, chicken, salads, burgers, etc. As for their beverage they have the regular drinks and their specialty drinks.



My favorite meal to have at Red Lobster is their Shrimp Linguini Alfredo. It's shrimp in garlic Parmesan cream sauce in linguini pasta.  The founder of Red Lobster, Bill Darden, opened the first actual restaurant in Lakeland, Florida, in 1968. By the early 1970's the company began spreading in the southeast. For years they served guests fresh dishes which soon became their favorite. In 2014, Red Lobster finally became an independent company. Over years, their passion for seafood kept Red Lobster evolving. Today there are over 700 Red Lobster restaurants in America and Canada.

This is my favorite restaurant because my family and I used to go there a lot, even when I was younger. Their meals are delicious and the service there is very nice. If this restaurant were to ever close down, I'll end up eating at Olive Garden. Olive Garden is my second favorite in which they also have delicious meals. Although Red Lobster is very pricey, I enjoy eating lunch or dinner there as much as I can.

Do Now 12/14

If I was given an invisible cloak for a day I would do many good deeds anonymously. Apart from pulling pranks on a few of my friends, doing something good to the community will hopefully be helpful to society. I would go around placing snacks and other foods on plates for the homeless people or stray animals. Feeding the poor is something I don't feel comfortable doing if they're watching me. The invisibility cloak would help with that struggle. I could also slide small positive notes inside lockers. A small compliment could make someone's day.

With the power to be invisible, I would help pick up garbage in the town. A clean place to live in is a better place to live in. Of course, if I'm invisible, babysitting would be a bit odd. Imagine randomly seeing a baby floating in mid air. Instead, I would help make dinner, maybe even set the table and do other chores for my household. My mother would definitely be happy about that. When the day is over and the invisibility cloak will be gone, I can proudly look back on my good deeds that I have done today. Hopefully I helped our community in a way.

Do Now 12/7

     If I were to add a class it would be a class for future actors and actresses. Unlike the drama club it will not be held after school and there will be no large school production. This class will be held in a 45 minute period during the school day. Students are able to pick if they would like to join this class, just like all their other extra curriculum classes. The classroom will always be filled with light and ideas. Future Broadway and TV stars will be born. If you enjoy acting then this classroom will most likely feel like the place you belong in.
    Students would learn about old and new play writers and their favorite actors/actresses. They will learn the knowledge of the first old movies and famous old actors. We would create our own skits and plays and perform them in front of our class. We would also create our own short films, any genre. Class trips would consist of movie theaters and Broadway plays.
