The story was about the president of Iraq, Mahmoud Ahmandinejad. The The article has to be about Mahmoud if he is Hitler or just a dumb guy also how Mahmoud is a impersonator of Hitler and a "wanna-be" or if he is another dumb guy with a bad haircut and wardrobe. It talks about how Mahmoud wanted to go to the Semptember 11 spot aka [As known as] World Trade Center. On my part I have no idea why the man knowing we're in war with them wants to go to the place that made the war start. I really think the man is a dumb "with a bad haircut and a wardrobe. In the article it says that homosexuals is not allowed in Iraq [Could be the same as the holocaust]

New York is giving drivers liscenses to illegal immigrants. All they need to show is their passport not even a social security number.I think that that is to much of breaking the law and their should be pealties to those who gave them out to the illegal immigrants.It cause alot of problems like physical riots or destruction of some sort.So they should stop or this city could be trashed in the matter of two days or more or maybe even less!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I read an artical about a kid who was 22 years old walked into st. Johns University with a 50 inch calobar rifle. Luckly no one was hurt. He was restrained by a police cadet who folowed him and campus police. The rason this happend was because he was taking medication for his back surgery. I think that it was a good thing that nothing happend but I feel sad on how the family must feel.

I read a article from nytimes that alot of security forces in Myanmar cracked down for a second day today on the nationwide protests, and they had even shot, used tear gas, and arrested the buddhist monks. After a few more days, on wednesday around half a dozen were killed. A japanese national had been killed during this time who was a photographer. The forces had been doing nothing but murdering and arresting monks and even the monks had told of the horror and violence they had commited, beating up monks and arresting 70 out of 150 monks. A spokes man of the president bush had denounced the crackdown and urged restraint for all the violence that occured and is attempting to stop what the forces had been doing and control themselves from violating protesters.

The article i choose is about the google beging shut down because they cant get enough useres to come to the website.That has no problem with yahoo ask.com and etc......WWW.live.com has been a long living website. So lets say you wanted to look up cameras you go to live.com and type in cameras and it up viewers and shopping for cameras in that link which you choose.But yahoo has introduced a new search engine and yahoo calles them shortcuts and there expecting more up dates soonner or later.So yahoos shortscuts are allready in use for buisness music sports and other stuff.They are saying that yahoo has more vistores than google and that is why they are shuting down google.

I got this article from http://canadianpress.google.com/article/ALeqM5gSfIQ5-nN9ULX9jnTZ7MCkdfjfgg
This article is about the New york mets losing top the cardinals,3-0.The mets were so far doing good in september, suddenly started to drop games losing games such as this game.the team feels like there still in the playoffs but if lost 2 games they are going to be out.the mets were seven games ahead in the leaque.
I think mets have to try harder then they have been doing.then they might win a game.

i got the article from the newspaper. THe article was about a studebnt that brought a gun to thae university. They aid that the man was 22year of age. Police said that the man had a mental problem, that was the information that the doctor gave.He came in the schoo with a rifle, and a student saw him and he said thatthe first thing he did was to call the cops with his cellpone. The police said that they will have to investigate the mattermore befor making a dision on the case.
I think that this is something very important and there was many thing wrong with, how they handle the matter of the investagation. I think that the man did the right thing call the cop because if the man fired the gun he could have kill some one becaues the gun was loaded.

The article I chose is "For Mets, a Question of Talent or of Character." This article is about the Mets game yesterday. They lost the game from Florida Marlins. The was 8-1. The game yesterday was a home game at the Mets stadium. It was embarassing and it made a lot of people cry. This was a big loss for the Mets.

The article was about an officer who shot and killed a man who was carryign a gun allegedly on friday. The officer was placed on desk duty.The shooting happened after a Battle was approached by two plainclothes officers that responding to a report of a man with a gun. I think that it's wrong to kill the man who was carrying a gun because he didn't even fired atr the first place. If he did, then there's a reason why the officer killed him. this is what the article was about.

I read about this article that said that New York is giving imegrants liscenses to drive. They only had to show a pass port they dont even need to show there socail secuity. I think they should change it because some immegrants dont know how to drive and for example in Londom people drive the opposite way. Maybe that would happend in New York and it would change all the rules around

Title:Woman gives birth to own grandchildren

This Artical is about a Rosinete Palmeira Serrao a 51 year old brazilen lady gave birth to her own twin grandchildren.It was on a on Thursday at the Santa Joana Hospital in the city of Recife. And the 51 year old women decided to serve as a surrogate mother after four years of failed attempts at pregnancy by her 27-year-old daughter, Claudia Michelle de Brito. They named the twins Victor Gabriel and Antonio Bento. It was a very interesting artical.

Yesterday, the Mets completed one of the most stunning collapses in baseball history with an embarrassing 8-1 loss to Florida. The season-ending nightmare began almost immediately, as sugarplum dreams of a weekend revival quickly dissolved. The “Let’s Go Mets” chants that rocked the stadium 15 minutes before the game quickly gave way to cries of despair. i really thiink the mest is so mad n dont probly dont kno wut 2 do,and y thing that i could say 2 them is 2 never give up!!!

I read a article called How come?: The slippery science of soap. The soap is more slippery than a banana.When one surface rubs against another, their crannies catch, producing a dragging effects.According to chemists, a wet bar of soap is coated in a thin film of water.This reduces the friction between your skin and the soap.So they say that soap is slippery more than abanana and the most dangeros so you better watch out when your taking a bath,and dont slip.

I read a story about the secretary of state coming and visiting schools like Harlem's Community School 154 – the Harriet Tubman School – as the guest of Congressman Charles Rangel Monday. She wanted to see how the communities were first hand. she sat in several classrooms and took questions from students. The highest-ranking black woman in U.S. government encouraged her young audience to stay in school and dream big. She was telling them that if they try there best they can accomplish anything they want and succed in life.

THe article was about a student that brought a gun to the university. The man was 22 years old. Police said that the man had a mental problem, that was the information that the doctor gave.The type od guin he brough was a rifle.One of the student saw him and went and called the cops. I think that the man who saw the guy with the rifle did the right thing to call the cops because if the man fired the gun he could have kill or injerd some one becaues the gun was loaded.

Osama Bin Laden Urges Americans to Convert

Osama bin Ladin appeared for the first time in three years. The video is 30 minutes long. The government had gotten a copy earlier and intelligence agencies were studying the video to determine whether it was authentic. The video was resived on Friday. They think that the video was filmed in CAIRO , Egypt . He is telling all Americans that they should convert to Islam region if they want the war in Iraq to end.



I think that this article s very interesting because it help to locate Osama. Also because it is going to be a major political discussion in the debate for a new president.

the artical is about the supreme court refused to expand the rights of church groups,in california. in the first case the justice declined to hear a free-speech claim from an evangelical minister in Northern California(public library). ithink that we should not allow it because they want to do it in public places. other people may not like it. i mean other religion.

The news report i read today is about the mets and how they will let Willie Randolf as manager of the team. And about their historical collaspe of the season, and how it was the seconds wordst in basball history.Mets had a 17 game lead in the National League division,but on september 30th 2007, was the worst , by losing the fanale game of the season, 8-1.I think it was a good idea to keep Randolf as a manager because the mets did have first place for a very long time, and the mets last year did make all the way, but im a yankkes fan so, i just hope to see them playing the mets next year for the championship.So i think the mets did a great move by keeping him, and im shure they will do better next year.

One Killed, Two Hurt In Taxi Cab Accident In Midtown

October 08, 2007

A member of WABC's news team was killed and his wife was injured when a taxi cab jumped the curb and plowed into a group of pedestrians in the Murray Hill section of Manhattan Sunday night.

Paul Smith, a helicopter pilot for WABC televison, was killed, and his wife Kale suffered a broken leg. A seven-year-old boy not related to the Smiths suffered a broken arm.

Smith was hailing a cab after a night out with friends when another taxi traveling up Third Avenue tried to cut across traffic and plowed into the group near the corner of East 40th Street.

Smith, 60, died from his injuries. The Vietnam veteran flew WABC's Newscopter 7 for more than ten years.

A Channel 7 co-worker says Smith was much more than a colleague.

Hey Ms. My article is about Elections. I think this has something very important to do with the world because elections are letting America know whos running up for The president Of The United States for probably the next 4 years. The runner ups are Barack Obama, John Edwards, Bill Richardson & Joe Biden. Honestly I would like Barack Obama to be eleceted as president because the other night I was watching the Tyra Show & Barack Obama was the special guest & I think the answers he gave to America was very true & I think he will be a WAY better president then George Bush. I got SOME of my information from aol.com
