Jessica Patton academy recruits ipods so they can listen and watch their lessons on their commute to and from training. I think that is sum what a bad idea because they can also train by watching their surroundings. I guess since their still in training and not in uniform yet then it is a good idea because listening helps so people understand better then reading. ]]> tag:learningremix.emich.edu,2007:/Fall07/jessica_patton//43.2045 2007-12-05T14:37:24Z 2007-12-05T14:41:28Z

Jessica Patton algorithm software program that tells the space shuttles which route is the best in space. They tested and validated that it can do this no matter how many years away or worlds away. The only thing I may have a problem with is what if it malfunctions then they are going to be lost in space.]]> tag:learningremix.emich.edu,2007:/Fall07/jessica_patton//43.2036 2007-12-05T02:08:36Z 2007-12-05T02:13:43Z

Jessica Patton hard drive that you can get outlook, google and picasa on. It is a WD 320GB and if you lose it, it is encrypted with 128 bit encryption. This is small enough to fit in a pocket but pack a lot. This reminds me of like a ipod touch or something. ]]> tag:learningremix.emich.edu,2007:/Fall07/jessica_patton//43.2035 2007-12-05T01:56:16Z 2007-12-05T02:08:29Z

Jessica Patton Sirius satellite and XM radio have merged into one. This is approved by the stakeholders but they still need to be approved in Washington. Some don't think that it should happen because together they would have a monopoly over satallite radio. I think that is a good idea for them because they would no longer have to compete but not good for subscribers because with them together any price they charge will have to go or no satellite radio.]]> tag:learningremix.emich.edu,2007:/Fall07/jessica_patton//43.2034 2007-12-05T01:52:06Z 2007-12-05T01:55:21Z

Jessica Patton article that says that scientist are trying to turn algae into energy. They are in labs seeing what types of algae has the most oil in them and some of them have at least 50% oil. Oil can be turned into bio-diesel or fuel for jets. If this works then I am pretty sure that gas prices will drop dramatically. ]]> tag:learningremix.emich.edu,2007:/Fall07/jessica_patton//43.2029 2007-12-04T23:59:07Z 2007-12-05T00:08:20Z
