Hello everyone!
Today, I'm feeling very bored because, one, I have no homework so far and two, I'm running out of headlines for the posts. Oh well, it happens... Here's today's news:
In Massachusetts, a boy was sent home because of (what his father claims) a drawing he did for school work. The drawing is a stick Jesus hanging on the cross. I think that it is against the Constitution to do such a thing as to go beyond separation of church and state. I know that the boy was probably drawing for the coming holiday, but I think he's got the wrong one in his head.
In other news, after a domestic dispute, Chris Henry,the receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals, died after falling off a truck. He was only 26.
Well that's the news for today and have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
¡Adios!

Today is Wednesday!?
Hello everyone!
Sorry that I haven't posted in while. I was busy or in the Commons. Anyways, here's today's news:
Iran has tested its longest-ranged missile, the Sajjil-2 today, which is capable of hitting Israel and parts of southern Europe. This is a very serious issue as the U.S. is trying to stop Iran's nuclear weapons program. Iran claims that the program is for energy, not for a weapon. This missile is their most advanced, since it claims to be indestructible and it runs on solid fuel. Iran has also said that they will launch the missile if the U.S. or Israel gets in the way.
In other news, a lot of incidents with teachers and elementary school students have popped up this week. For example, a teacher in New Jersey told one of her third grade students to put away her Bible, which the student was reading during quiet time. The school apologized, saying that the teacher made a mistake, since reading the Bible is allowed. Another incident is that a teacher in Milwaukee told her first grade student to stop playing with her beaded braids. The student continued to do so and the teacher told her to come up to the front of the class, then the teacher cut one of them off. The school apologized and the school board is deciding whether or not to fire the teacher. The student was moved to another class.
How ridiculous is this!? I'm surprised they would even do such a thing. Oh well, it's their problem...
Well, that's it for today. I don't know if I will post something new later this week nor during Winter Break so have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
¡Adios!

T.G.I.F.
Hello everyone!
Today, Australia is issuing a shipping alert due to an iceberg heading their way. The iceberg itself was broken off a decade ago before it drifted north. Sounds cool to see this once-in-a-lifetime event. In other news, some guy from Pennsylvania tried to steal $20 million in paintings from a local museum. What's surprising is that the museum was owned by his father Frank Frazetta. It's surprising how people are going to great lengths just to fill their greed of money. Wow...
Other than that, there's not a lot of homework tonight and it's not really that difficult. Also, I will not post on the weekends because the good stuff is during the week. Have a great weekend and T.G.I.F.!

Thursday's News
Welcome to another exciting post of The News Pages!
Today, Forsythe Middle School and Wines, Haisley, and Dicken Elementary Schools are closed due to no power. It's too bad for me because we use a wind turbine for generating electricity and other things. Oh well, it pays to be green. In other news, I checked out a story from Fox News and it turns out that Climate Change Scientists actually admitted trashing the raw temperature data to which their predictions are based off of. That means that there could be no such thing as global warming. I knew it would come to this someday...
Other than that, English is the tough one tonight. I need to catch up on the Animal Farm questions.
Adios!

Today's News
Hello everyone!
Today, a High Wind Warning is scheduled for all of Southeastern Michigan from Noon today to 4 A.M. tomorrow. Wind gusts can be up to or over 60 mph for today and tonight. Also, wind chills tonight may reach the single digits because of the wind. Other than that, nothing is really new right now, so I'll talk about an old topic.
Recently, Amanda Knox was sentenced to 26 years in Italian prison over accusations of murdering her roommate. A lot of people have been saying that the media's lies could have contributed to her sentence. I believe that it was an unfair trial but since the government system in Italy is different than ours, then we don't have any right to change it.
That's all for today. Geometry homework is long tonight and it's a book assignment, even though we don't have the books. We need to use the online book, but I think that people can goof off instead of consulting the book for homework.
Adios.

EPIC CATCH 21 FAIL!!!!
Welcome to my Blog!
This blog is all about current news and topics and my opinions on them. This blog is both a blog and a forum so post what you want in the Comments.
Tonight, I saw this episode of Catch 21 on GSN and on it, there was an epic failure. Contestant 1 just got 11 and the next question was asked. Contestant 2 answered the question and she got a King. She had a 5 and instead of keeping it, she did this: Instead of busting Contestant 3 (who had 13), she passed the King to Contestant 1, giving her a 21! What an epic fail! Other than that, Geometry homework is hard tonight and it's taking me 5 minutes for me to solve just one. Oh well...
