An ex-astronaut says that global warming is a bunk. We know that the earth is warming because if it wasn't we would still be in an ice age. I love this astronaut becuase he is someone with a sane mind and he is also a decorated geologist from harvard so what he says is very reliable. The thing that is happening now is a climate change but not one as severe as it is nautrual.

Its every ones favorite holiday St. Patrick day or green beer day as others know it. me being irish love this holiday so much and celebrate it religiously. reading this article i was very disappointed, because the original color for this day was not green but blue this has changed my whole outlook on life, but luckily its still about spuds. this holiday is a European history marker unlike the Indian festival of lights in Nectar in a sieve.

even though it is not "true" bollywood the movie Slumdog Millionaire has won 8 oscars and was a great motion picture. It was like the movie we watched in our class because it also was not true bollywood yet both movies are regarded highly and are noted movies.

A muslim woman was asked to leave a bank because she was wearing a head scarf and it went against the "no hats, hoods, or shades policy." both sides on the case have good arguments for there side but i think that it should be able to adapt to diffrent cultures because humans are a bendable race and prone to change. this is like the book things fall apart where the settelers are asking the locals to change for them and not the other way around.

New Iraq plan to pull out completely by 2012. I completely and totally disagree with this. time lines are the worst possible solution because if were not done by the time we pull out then every thing we've done so far would be for not. I would hate for this to happen and would hope that it will change.

In the carabien a woman is suspected to have fallen off a cruise liner that was on a week long journey. the woman was reported missing at 3 in the morning by the husband, it was confirmed that she was not on the ship anymore. but there is hope because it was in tropic waters the temperature is always about 70 degrees so hypothermia is at small risk. if she was able to grab a floatation device before falling she could still be alive. I hope that she is alive though i cant see that without a miracle. This reminds me of the whole jewish community in Night, where there is little hope the jewish people still see that there is a chance.

In Madagascar there was recently a power struggle for the right of the land. dozens of soldiers captured the palace that was at the time vacant. the current president said that he would not give power to the anti-government party who tried to get it unconstitutionally. It must have taken the president a ton of bravery to say what he did because his life would have been in danger if he was in the palace at the time of the invasion. This is like Okonkwo because he does not want to hand over his way of life to these invaders who want things there way. It is unlike him also because this is an inside threat of corrupt power and not of colonization.

I would agree with some who say that the article i read was not about love, but was rather about scandals and lies, by one gold-digger who is just looking for time in the light. Brittany's ex-husband released a story to people about how he loved her but was not in love with her. i think if this kind of story makes the front page of people magazine nothing much is going on in our everyday lives. some people agree that watching paint dry is more exiting, but i think that false love for ones own profit semi relates to Okonkwo when he wants to use his beautiful daughters to gain in the ranks of the village once he returns from his exile.
