Article Title:Texas judge under fire for rape sentence
Article Date:may 6 2014
Who:judge Jeanine Howard
Where:Dallas Texas
When: in May
What happened: a man raped a 14 year old girl in her high school and the judge could have sent him to jail for a long time however she only wanted him to be on probation now people fear that this might stop people from reporting rape if the judge is just going to put them on probation although he was convicted people still don't understand why she would only want him on probation and not in jail for years
Why this event is relevant: because rape is serious and still happens today and a lot of voices are not heard because they fear to speak up this is something that needs to change
Reaction I feel upset because that's my fear that if I get raped or something will the judge let the person go will put him on probation to thats stupid and how would she feel if that was her in that predicament she would want him in jail
Opinion (I think..)that the judge should be fired and jailed herself because in a case of rape the person should rot in jail for years I think she knows the boy who raped the girl that's why she didn't want him in jail
Connection (why you chose this article)I choose this article because I'm surprised In the judge and I wonder if she has a child because what would inspire her to put this man on probation why is she a judge she should be fire rape is something that still happens and needs to stop that's why I choose this article

Article Date: september 28,2014
Who: police and residents of hong kong
Where: Hong Kong
When: september 21
What happened: in hong kong police were trying to bring a end to protest for democracy from residents. the government tried to block an influential westminister committee from carrying out an inquiry into the ongoing tension in hong kong. Authorities in hong kong unleashed tear gas and mobilized riot police had long-barreled guns to disperse crowds that have surround the city government for three days but thousands of residents holding only umbrellas and face masks, refused police orders to clear the area.after the police sought to break up the protest, large crowds of demonstrators remained nearby. Confronting lines of officers and chanting for them to lay down their truncheons and shields. Police officers were also injured in skirmishes with protestors. streets of a city known as a safe enclave for commerce became a nighttime battleground. Some protest leaders called on residents to retreat, announcing fears that the police would use rubber bullets on the crowd. The hong kong government warned residents, to leave in a commanding manner or officers would use a higher level of force.
Why this event is relevant:because nothing like this normally happens in hong kong and it shows that their residents strongly disapprove on the government trying to stop chinese interference
Reaction (describe your feelings or attitudes) shocked because I thought countries like hong kong were more strict in their country and had more control over their people, but their residents showed civil disobedience giving me a better view that the government are not so commanding in their country.
Opinion (I think..) I think that the government in hong kong is effecting their country by unleashing tear gas towards their residents, it can cause health problems and the people won't have the same respect for the government as they once did.
Connection (why you chose this article) I chose this article because it was a first time protest in hong kong. and it show how the government of hong kong can be so cruel towards their residents. Trying to take advantage of their residents by being violent towards them can only lead their residents to not have the care in mind for the government.

Article Date:Mon September 29, 2014
Who: Isis Vs Syrian town
Where: Syria
When:September 29, 2014
What happened: Since the bombing that was enough to stop the isis group. They are now trying to take over east of Kobani. If isis take control that would take land from the capital of Raqqa to the border of Turkish. Right now the president of Kobani says he's terrified and feeling helpless. The president of Kobani is requesting help , he says he need more weapons, more airstrikes being attempted. Basically he wants anything to help that will slow Isis down so that they won't get into Kobani. The U.S. military believes the ongoing bombing campaign in Syria has decreased ISIS command and control capabilities drastically already. In an interview that aired Sunday on CBS' "60 Minutes," President Barack Obama said the U.S. government underestimated what had been taking place in Syria. He's basically saying that as a country we really didn't understand what we was getting into we never realized how much they probably had this planned out already. We also didn't realize how much their spreading or what they have up their sleeve as an comeback. According to a new CNN/ORC International poll, 73% percent of Americans support the U.S.-led coalition of airstrikes in Iraq and Syria and 60% of people agree to sending ground troops in the fight.
Though Obama has said he will not put combat troops in the region, the United States does have military advisers on the ground training for what might happen in the long run.
Why this event is relevant: This article is relevant because Obama has finally came out and said we don't know what we're up against. We don't know what isis has in plan we’re basically going with the flow whatever happens, happens.
Reaction (describe your feelings or attitudes): My feelings towards this was irked because its like we don't know what were going to do for real everything is all over the place, everybody is trying to fight everybody. Isis is being difficult and trying to take over everything and nobody know what's to do to stop them.
Opinion (I think..) I think we need to just bomb isis immediately, no questions asked.
Connection (why you chose this article): I chose this article because i didnt know obama didn't know what we was up against i thought we had this all planned out already.

ReplyDeleteArticle Title:How could Obama have 'underestimated' ISIS?
Article Date: September 29,2014
Who: ISIS
Where: Syria
When: September 29,2014
What happened:ISIS is smarter than what Obama thought.Their intelligence gotten better over time. Even when the fight is done with the terrorist will still fight back. This shows a big threat on the U.S.
Why this event is relevant: If ISIS start to fight back the U.S. is a big threat to them.
Reaction: Its scary because you never know when they are going to attack.
Opinion: I think Obama should find a way to call it a truss
Connection: I chose this article because I think its important for me to know what's going on in Syria and what they are planning to do to the U.S.

ReplyDeleteArticle Title: Comcast’s Joseph Clancy Is Now Secret Service Chief
Article Date: October 1, 2014
Who: Joseph Clancy, President Barack Obama, The Secret Service
Where: The United States
When: October 1, 2014
What happened: After the recent poor duty in the Secret Service under the supervision of Julia Pierson, former director of corporate security at Comcast, Joseph Clancy, takes up the job as the Secret Service chief. He isn’t just a random person however. He’d spend most of his time guarding former presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and the current president Barack Obama. He had retired three years ago from the Secret Service but is now back to action. He also has ties to Philadelphia, being a history teacher at Father Judge and graduating from Villanova.
Why this event is relevant: This relates to national security and the well-being of the the president.
Reaction: I wouldn’t want our president to get killed because of lack of security and Joseph Clancy seems like the right guy to not allow that to happen. I also like him because he can represent Philadelphia in a positive way.
Opinion: I think Joseph Clancy can turn things around with the recent Secret Service activity and responsiveness. I think that he can prevent future incidents such as the man climbing over the fence surrounding the White House and running into it.
Connection: I chose this article because I think that the Secret Service has been lacking and that puts extreme risks on our president. I always wish to never live through a presidential assassination and a new person in charge of making this happen is important to me.

ReplyDeleteArticle Title: The title of this article is "Obama Acknowledges US erred in assessing ISIS.
Article Date: The date of this article is September 28th, 2014.
Who: This article is about President Obama, the US military, ISIS, and the US.
Where: This event takes place in parts of Iraq and the US.
When: This event happened sometime before the publication of the article (September 28, 2014).
What happened: President Barack Obama is now acknowledging the fact that he and his colleagues may have underestimated the power and relentlessness of the terrorist militia group known as ISIS. In previous speeches president Obama has said that he plans to get all the fighting soldiers out of the Middle East and back home to the US. Then he ended up redeploying soldiers back to the Middle East to help fight ISIS. The terrorist group has stolen hundreds of millions of dollars worth of weapons from Iraqi and Syrian miltary and is taking over many parts of Iraq and Syria. The US is over in the Middle east trying to put an end to this terrorist group but Obamas plan has panned out as well as he and his colleagues may have thought it would. Just for clarification, the US has started off with airstrikes and have not yet sent out ground troops.
Why this event is relevant: This event is relevant because this could actually lead to another big war where more soldiers have to be shipped out and more american lives will be lost for something that could have been avoided.
Reaction: My reaction to this article is that I was very dissapointed in Obama because he held a big press conference saying that he will defeat ISIS quicker than they know and now he's saying that he may have underestimated them.
Opinion: In my honest opinion, I believe that president Obama should have kept the country out of this and just let Iraq handle their own problems, since they were our enemy not too long ago.
Connection: The reason I chose this article is because I find the subject of ISIS very interesting and I just want to see how strong they can get before they get destroyed.

Article Date:Thu October 2, 2014
Who: Americans, Liberian president
Where: Liberia and America
When: October 2, 2014
What happened: Today US has their first patient diagnosed with Ebola. The patient named Thomas Eric Duncan contracted the disease from Liberia and got on a plane back on the US. Duncan has lied on a questionnaire that doctors have gave him and he could have spread it to others. Any one that Duncan has come in contact with is to be tested so they can find out if they caught the disease.
Why this event is relevant: This event is relevant because this disease just touched down on American soil and could of spread. This could also be a part of a terrorist attack from ISIS.
Reaction: I'm a little worried because if this disease is in our country and could eventually spread through the whole country. They need to try to stop this disease ASAP because it can get worst.
Opinion: This reminds me of the movie contagion because it started from 1 person, into half the country. I a little worried about this disease but its really nothing that I can do.
Connection: I choses this article because this is breaking news that involves every American/Human on the planet.

Where: A High school in Moulton, Ala is were the report and research begun.
When: Around February the scientific set back had placed untied states in the dirt.
what happened: Research shows that the United States cut backs are showing a less productive society. The U.S "Global Shifts" on landscape is really hurting the earth as well as the resources we need.
why is this relavent : This is real vent because we the US spends up to $429 billion a year on research. The United States is president or leader of science. , yet we still crumble are resources.
Reaction: The United States really should not spend that much on research if they are not going to preserve. This makes me feel like the US is spending money to make it look like there effort I'd going some were. They are not really providing and maintaining resources.
Connection : This connects me back to the president elections were they state what they are going to do for the American people. However, it's ends up never being able to put forth the action they stated .
Opinion: I feel as though we are not being the big brot b et to other countries were we set hight mm standard of science and technology . I feel that the US can prove so much more if we use the money and really come back with answers from the research.

Article Date: October 2, 2014
Who: Texas State, U.S. District Judge, and U.S. 5th Circuit Court.
Where: New Orleans
When: October 2, 2014
What happenede: This is about the court appealing to Texas Anti- Abortion law. The court argued since women were not able to drive about 300 miles to closest facility , then it should be acquired in the hospitals. By law, you must be admitted from nearest hospital if you own your own clinic. However there is a pay you pay; in order to get abortion women's must drive more than three hours to get it done
Why this event is relevant: This article is relevant because absorption is a hard topic to agree on. People have different opinions of why they it should be legal and why it shouldn't be. It's not an easy discussion.
Reaction- This is a very disturbing story. There is no way this should ever be brought back up again, in the course of the law. This was a law for reason and it should stay that way.
Opinion (I think..)- I think abortion shouldn't exist in the first place. It had no purpose, if you don't want children then don't have intercourse with different gender. However, if you end up having one, you are the responsibility for that baby, don't neglect it just because of the mistake you made.
Connection- I chose this article because it was very engaging to me.

When: This happened on Wednesday October 1 2014.
What happened: There was rumor that a member of the jury for the Michael brown case tweeted that there wasn't enough evidence to indict the cop that shot Michael brown.
Why this event is relevant: This event is relevant because if this jury member spoke out it could potentially.
Reaction: My reaction to this is that this case should have been an easy vote because the police who shot him was wrong.
I think that the jury member who spoke out on the case was wrong and shouldn't have said anything because it might hurt the case really bad.
I chose this article because what happened to Michael brown was unfair and I think he deserves justice for what happened. The only way he will get justice is if people don't stop talking about it.

The Justices plan to have a meeting soon to consider the appeals their are to the five states that have banned same-sex marriage. Supporters from both sides of this decision wants the Supreme court to hurry up and make a decision.
Why this event is relevant; This event is important because same-sex marriage has been a major topic of discussion in politics on rather it should or should not be unlawful for two people of the same-sex to get married in the United States.
Reaction: People should be able to marry whom ever they want that is a part of freedom being able to do whatever you want to a law extent and marrying somebody same-sex or not is not and should not be unlawful.
Opinion: I think that the Justices should make the decision to let same-sex marriage happen in the United States

Who: Iraq Vetern (Fence Jumper), White House Guards
Where: Washington, D.C.
When: does not say
What happened: A 42 year old Iraq veteran jumped the fence of the white house with nothing on him except a pocket knife. He somehow got past all the guards and actually ran in the white house and got through some rooms.
Why this event is relevant: This is relevant because the white house is suppose to be the most protected place on earth and yet they have 1 person run through the front gate and go inside without being stopped? That is unacceptable and that is why this is relevant.
Reaction: When I first heard of this situation I was shocked that 1 person can get past so many guards. I thought the guards would've been trained enough to stop 1 person but I guess I'm wrong.
Opinion: I think people should be getting fired for this event, and that is what's happening now. Some officials have already lost their jobs due to the situation.
Connection: I choose this article because it caught my attention and I have been hearing about it on the news lately.

Article Date: October 2, 2014
Who: Aaron Mendelson
Where: California
When: Tuesday, September 30, 2014
What happened: In California they are completely banning plastic bag use in their grocery stores. California is the first U.S. state to ban plastic bag use due to the signing of a decree or single-state law. In California they believe that plastic bags are a waste of money and that reusable bags would be much more suitable. People are wondering why California is worried about bags and not something more major.
Why this event is relevant: This event is relevant because it is something that is showing the government don't really care anymore. Meaning that they passed a law that shouldn't even have been of effect.
Reaction: I feel as though that banning plastic bags will indeed help people save money. However, it will not help people breathe. Using reusable bags means chopping down trees and creating paper. When your chopping down trees you decreasing the oxygen from the air.
Opinion: I agree with those who think that that law should be opposed and or not in effect. I agree with that group because there's more things in California to worry about other than plastic bags. Plastic bags aren't posing a threat to California. People just need to take classes on the importance of not littering.
Connection: I chose this article because it reminded me of Philadelphia. It reminded me of Philadelphia because we shut down public schools because of budget cuts. But yet we still build buildings that create more debt. Therefore, both Philadelphia and California are worried about the wrong things.

What happened: Australia's military will now join forces with the U.S. military for potentially taking out ISIS in Iraq. The Prime Minister of Australia declared that,"ISIS effectively declared war on the world. It is absolutely in Australia's national interests that this mission go ahead."
Why this event is relevant: Because the U.S. military and its Allies need all the help they can get to eliminate ISIS. Obviously, the chances of eliminating them greatly increases the more help there is. Australia seems to realize that ISIS is not just a threat to neighboring countries or the West, but they are a threat to the entire world, so to speak.
Reaction: I was extremely happy when hearing this news. As soon as I pictured Australia, I imagined a huge military because it's an entire continent. So to think that a powerful military that the U.S. possesses, it will help hugely for Australia to come into things.
Opinion: I think this is good for the elimination of ISIS. "The more the merrier".
Connection: I chose this article because I was excited to see yet another powerful military to assists the U.S. military and its Allies in taking out ISIS.

Where: Kobani, Syria
When: Thursday night, October 2nd
What happened: ISIS is invading the Syrian city of Kobani. The Islamic group is quickly accelerating their rate of takeover. Kobani is near the Turkish border meaning that they're heading that way. This is scaring the civilians of Turkey so most of them are fleeing. Also, Australia has joined the US alliance to take down ISIS. The country said they feel threatened and need to protect their countries. So far there are only 60 Australians in Syria but there are more to come to help the US and the other allies defeat this terrorist group. Australia has already sent some air strikes.
Why this event is relevant: This is relevant because it shows how ISIS is taking over the Middle East and how they are a threat to the rest of the world.
Reaction: My reaction is scared because they really are taking over a lot and it doesn't seem like the air strikes are doing anything to take the group down.

Where: This takes place in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania in the courts.
When: This happened Tuesday, September 23,2014.
What Happened: Senator Ferlo comes out about being gay stating that it was very obvious and he just hasn’t made it public. As he tell it publicly the courts in Harrisburg the lawmakers are trying to get more protection for LBGT community.
Why is this relevant?: This is relevant because Senator Ferlo is one of the few gay senators. Also, the LBGT are not under Pennsylvania's hate crime law. So for them to have some type of protection would be good.
Reaction: I feel as though the LBGT community should have the same rights as everyone else. The ideals that were used to build the U.S an even Pennsylvania are being contradicted. If the U.S and Pennsylvania
Opinion: I think this will change history.
Connection: This can connect wit Michael Sam coming out to the NFL about being gay.He was the first publicly gay NFL player to be drafted. To many people didn’t like it.

ReplyDeleteTile: Obama to immigration activists: Cover me
Date: Fri October 3, 2014
What Happen:This article is about how Obama is trying to change the Immigration system. By this he makes it sure that scange could not happen without their vote. When he has a Latino vote them this helps by having them take it to congress. After it is taken to congress then the next steps can be done. In the United States can not come togther to make a decision. The votes were not put together yet. This is relevant because the needs of the people are not being met and people want to be able to visit their families. But the immigration is not allowing it. My reaction that they should vote to help themselves. I think that is should not be left by the people to decide to change because the vote might not be helpful to all who needs it. My connection is when I was in school and we had to vote and not everyone will not want the same thing. So it just worries that not everyone wants the same thing and nothing will be resolved.
