Most web users hate normal font sizes because they have a hard time reading any font lower than 16 pixels. The harder your text is to read the less it will get read. The facts I found interesting in this article were: At age 40, only half the light gets through to the retina as it did at age 20. For 60 year old, it's just 20%. Also, the fact that 16 pixel text on a screen is about the same size as text printed in a book or magazine.
Plan of Action:
I plan on making a music score but simply making it look broken and distorted due to the page not found. I think for me and my flawed drawing ability this should be a fairly easy object to design and add to my website.
Summary: In Molly Cain's Article "6 Ways to Achieve Any Goal" she explains how you can effectively create and complete your goals by taking simple and easy actions. The author gets her reader's attention with added humor and thoughts in order to stay on the same page. There are obviously 6 steps or precautions to her method in which are all explained in an orderly fashion within the article. The steps begin with "Look at it" which basically explains to take a good look at your goals and see if they are able to be completed after a visual representation. We then move onto "Tell People" which tells us as readers to just talk to someone about our goals and they may just have the will to help you complete your goals. Next is "Break It Up" and I actually enjoy this one because it explains that many people abandon goals because they are too big for them to complete. In order to prevent that Cain has provided a strategy for that; Break up your goals so that they can be completed with ease. Another method is to "Set a Date" which is basically to record it on a calendar or an agenda to help us finish that specific goal. The articles finishes with Being realistic and committing which basically says that another way to make goals easier to complete is to make them able for you as a person to do. Also to commit to what you are doing because nothing just magically ends up finished without a little bit of effort. Editorial: I honestly loved this article because I fell the author is an amazing one and she did an excellent job getting her points across. As stated in the previous paragraph I liked how she used humor and her own thoughts to create an interesting article for her readers. This article actually kind of helped me realize that I need to get cracking on some of the things I would like to do before the year is over. Also before the trimester I would like to learn more on my bass guitar which I have made little progress on because of the mixture of school, work, and just pure laziness. I will say that it will be quite the journey but I must put in the effort to create something I have wished for a long time ago. I can say that I am ready to take the initiative and impress who I can with my new found skills on my bass guitar. Keywords: Noble – Having high moral qualities; A noble spirit; a solid citizen; and upstanding man; a worthy successor. Inaudible - impossible to hear; imperceptible by the ear. Plan of Action:
An amazing guitarist under the name of Jimi Hendrix once said "Music doesn't lie. If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music." When I first heard music of my liking I thought nothing of it, but it changed me as a person. I felt like I had taken the next step into my life and started to wake up and realize my responsibilities as a human being. With these responsibilities I gave myself goals to improve my overall outcome as a person. Therefore, when given instructions to create a website on three of my bucket list goals I could not deny. Music being one of the most important aspects of my life helped me choose my goals. I made sure that my goals made some sort of progression for my life in which I chose to see more of my favorite bands in concert, to meet some of my 'idols' from my favorite bands, and the achievable short term goal to learn more about playing my bass guitar. I want to spread the message to the viewers of my website that music can help you move forward and make progression in their lives no matter the circumstances.

I really liked site 175 because their overall organization is just amazing. I really like how they designed their Project pages and the slideshows that they have are just awesome. I chose that aspect to the website because it is something that is unique to me as far as coding and design goes. It impresses me that they were able to put together such a masterpiece. I also like how they were able to change one word in their title and cycle it to just do an endless loop.
