They stole a picture of my son..

This is a very shocking story. Using people's pictures without their permission is quite illegal and I would be outraged as well. I am surpised that the company was not more apologetic when the woman contacted them. They should have immediately realized what they did was illegal and inexcusable. I think they should have had to pay even more than 4000 dollars, especially because of the rude way they responded.

Chris Nolan's Presentation

2008-03-26T21:15:00.000-07:00

Mr. Nolan's presentation was very interesting. I liked learning about the different search engines and which ones provided better results. One thing I found out that suprised me was that .org websites are not automatically reliable. He showed us the martinlutherking.org website and it was completely ridiculous and racist. I had always thought that anything with .org at the end was definitely scholastic and reliable.

Word Processor Experience

I have used Microsoft Office 2003 for most of my life. I am pretty apt at using it, and have never really had problems. Office 2007 is very new to me though and I need more practice learning where everything is. The tutorial helped me alot.

Computer Experience

2008-01-24T07:27:00.000-08:00

I consider myself pretty good with computers. I have always used PC's, so I am not very apt with Mac's and I don't like them. In high school, I took a class called BCIS which is very similar to this Computer Skills class. I use my PC laptop to get on the internet, send emails, listen to music, and write papers. I am fairly good with Excel, but I never really need to use it. The computer I have now is kind of slow but I refuse to get a new one because it is not that old and I think it is silly that computers only last about 4 years. It still does everything I need it to, it just takes longer sometimes.

About Me

2008-01-21T19:10:00.000-08:00

Hi my name is Allison Wilbanks and I am a first year student at Trinity University. I went to Westlake High School in Austin, Texas. I live with my mom, Teresa, my dad, Danny, my sister, Sarah, and my brother, Steven. My sister is 16 years old and my brother is 14 years old. Both of my parents are Certified Public Accountants. My mom works at Breedlove&Associates and my father works at Virtual CFOS. I was born in Houston but I have lived in Austin most of my life. I am planning on double majoring at Trinity in Business Administration and Political Science. After college, I hope to attend law school and enter the judicial system, either as a judge or a lawyer. I am also interested in politics and maybe running for some sort of political office.
