One day Teddy was walking with his pet fork that his name was Sporky. They kept walking and he found a cotton field and the were deadly to Teddy because he didn't like them. Sporky had no fears beside the fear of spoons. So Sporky leashed out at the cotton balls but, he was low on energy and he ate a screw to fill up his strength and defeated the cotton balls. Then Sporky missed the last cotton ball and hit Teddy and Teddy went around screaming random bystander with his hands up in the air.
He was crying out "Where is my mommy" then the mini magic train came flying down the sky. He looked up and saw his mom driving the train and she said "Teddy drink the soup" then she threw it to Teddy. Teddy missed and hit his head and he was knocked out. Then Sporky had to drag him to the magic cue tip. Then Sporky had to feed him with the soup and Teddy survived. They lived forever and ever and Teddy always feared cotton balls.

Thoughts of Baseball
Booting a ground ball
At times slow
Sliding head first into home
Eating a hotdog at the ballpark
Batting in the bottom of the 9th
After we go to Moe's
Leaping to catch a ball
Laughing after Teddy makes a joke

Picture Journal
Kemba Walker is one of the best players in college. His team won the NCAA tourney against Bulter a few days ago 52-41. It was a very low scoring game with such a good offensive team like Uconn. The highest scorer of the game was Kemba Walker. He had 15 points. Second on there team was Jeremy Lamb with 11 points all coming in the second half. In the last game I was rooting for Uconn to win the NCAA Finals.

Essay
Literary analysis
4/5/11
“I stood there as still as a rock. As I sat there waiting for the white dove appear all the animals came out of the thick forest and walked passed me, not evening noticing me. Yet I stead still until the white dove came floating down from the sky. The white dove moved slowly. She came in the end to where I sat and began to feed at my feet. I quickly grabbed the bird and had palms on wings and fingers on neck” page 3. That what happened when the fowler caught the white dove in the short story The Hundredth Dove, written by Jane Yolen. This short story is a mode of literature but, every story is. This short story clearly states that it is the romantic mode of literature.
There are many things in a romantic mode of literature one of them is the plotline. In a romance plotline there are only two things. The first one is there is a minor conflict. This shows when the king orders the fowler to catch one hundred doves. The fowler caught ninety nine doves but, he need one more. So there is just this white one left and it was impossible to catch. The last part is it ends with life symbolism. The life symbolism is when he gave up hunting and lived off berries for the rest of his life. That would be the plotline.
As well as a plotline there are many characteristics. There are a lot of characteristics but, some are very similar. The main ones are the story isn’t realistic, good is powerful, evil is weak, and the main character is in control. It shows how unrealistic it is when the white dove starts to talk to the fowler. When good was powerful it was when the fowler finally caught the white dove but, also that shows how evil is weak when they simply killed the white dove and the king didn’t have his wedding. Also the main character is in control because he didn’t have to kill the dove. Those are the characteristics.
In a mode of literature there also is a purpose. The purpose is the last part of a mode of literature. The purpose for a romantic mode of literature is escapism and we go to a world of innocence. This shows when the fowler gives up hunting he is escaping harm from animals.
Also there is symbolism that follows the story. There was a lot of symbolism in this story. Some symbolism is there are unicorns. That happened when the fowler was trying to catch the white dove. Also the dove is symbolism and there were many doves in the short story so that would be some symbolism. As well as doves there was mist that had happened when the fowler said “At dusk the doves came, settling over the clearing like a gray mist” page 2. Another symbolism is there was growing plants at the fowler feet he described. There was a lot of symbolism in this story.
Finally I liked this short story. It was interesting how things ended the way they did. This book also shows how a romantic mode of literature is written. Everything follows the story. The plotline, characteristics, and purpose all follow the romantic mode of literature. The short story The Hundredth Dove clearly states it is a romantic mode of literature.

NCAA
I think Uconn is going to win the NCAA tourney. Uconn has many good players one of their best players is Kemba Walker he is averaging 25 points a game that is really good the only one who did better was Jimmer Fridette lost to Florida. Uconn are the most likely team to win. Though I want kentucky to win the NCAA tourney. They have Brandon Knight who hits key three pointers to keep Kentucky to stay in the tourney. I hope Kentucky can win the NCAA tourney.

Granny Ed and the Lewisville Raiders
Nick Majeskie
" I had timed the jump perfectly and rebounded the ball. I could see the other teams center that is seven feet tall come crashing into me. Then my grandma came rushing on the court (She is the head coach). She told me I had a one and one coming up on the free throw line and she told me to make the first one and miss the second one so Al could rebound it and put up a shot to win the game" page 13. This is what had happened in the last seconds in the basketball game when the Lewisville Raiders won the state championship. The short story Granny Ed and the Lewisville Raiders, written by Rae Rainey, clearly show that this is a romantic mode of literature.
The short story mode of literature is romance. If the story is the romantic mode of literature then there is a plotline. In a romance plotline there is only two things. The two things are at the beginning there is a minor conflict in the story. The minor conflict is that they need a coach. They find a coach and the coach is Granny Ed. In addition in the plotline the end ends with life symbolism which is when something good happens. The life symbolism in the story is that they won the State Championship.
In addition to a plotline there are characteristics. In a romance there is a lot of characteristics. The first characteristics is everything seems better than it really is. It shows this by is when the Raiders need a coach and they find one and it is a grandma. What if she got sick there was no assistant coach so they would have to forfeit or if she got hurt from old age. Another characteristic is that it is a fantasy vision and unrealistic. It is unrealistic when they won the championship because what team has a grandma as a coach and wins state. The next characteristic is when the main character is in control and can't do wrong this showed when Sport jumped up and got the rebound and was fouled and made the foul shot and missed to help win the game. Finally good is powerful and evil was weak. The Raiders won and the Tigers lost.
The last part is the purpose. The purpose is when you escape to a world of innocence. That showed when it had a happy ending. Which is when the Raiders won state. Everything goes right for the characters in the story and everything did go right because they were supposed to be really bad since they lost their real head coach.
This short story seemed to me to be a romantic mode of literature. Everything about it followed the romantic mode of literature. The plotline, characteristics, and the purpose matched. I liked this book because it had a happy ending and they won state. Granny Ed and the Lewisville Raiders was a romantic mode of literature.
