There are roughly 120 Earth quakes that happen each year over a 6.0. Roughly 1000 per year over a 5.0. That is one every 3 days. Every three days people die in earthquakes that destroy countries.
BUT, how many news stories got published before Haiti? Once a month? Maybe. [...]
Am I the only one who watches documentaries about modern day America? I have come to the realization that Americans are just plain stupid. Before finishing this article, go watch “Maxed Out” and “This Film is Not Yet Rated.” If there are some other good ones, post them, I can’t recall all [...]
What is with the modern focus on children? I guess I just don’t see these kids as prodigies. A recent news story (the kid who doesn’t pledge) let the father speak. He said his child was a person, with equal rights (on a side note, the kid was taking about equal rights) [...]
A girl who sneezes 12,000 times a day. Forget the story, it doesn’t matter… oh wait… yes it does. This 12 years old girl sneezes 12,000 times a day. According to the story on CNN, this started about 2 weeks ago when she had a cold. Now the family is just [...]

There is a new story being released by CNN that has been building for years: online images of sensitive locations to our nation’s security. In the past few years, technology has hit a new peak with high-resolution images that can be accessed by any regular internet connection. I agree with the story; these images should [...]
Sotomayor is the new Supreme Court judge. I have a few things to say about this issue. There is a large debate about race and Obama’s reasons for the nomination.
First of all, Obama has added more diversity to positions than any other president. We have the first black head of NASA and many others. This [...]
It finally made the news! I have wondered for years how long it would take for the media to catch wind of the new idea of outsourcing homework. This idea of hiring Asians and Indians to write papers though such sites as GreatEssay.com is just ridiculous. I have known about these services [...]
There are a lot of news stories that focus on self-esteem. Self-esteem is the ability to think highly of one’s self and to cope with everyday situations.
