Who: The governments General Service Administration, TJ Gottesdiener and Owings & Merrill
Where: World Trade Center in Manhattan skyline, New York City
When: Monday, 3 November 2013 at 3:53 P:M
What happened: This article is mainly about how the World Trade Center officially opens up for business since the attack of September 11th. This $3.8 skyline building took eight years to rebuild and is now considered to be the tallest buildings in the United States. The World Trade Center marks a memorial in the footprints of the old towers and a museum within the skyline. The New York skyline is a remarkable building that will now be open to the public.
Why this event is relevant: This is relevant because of those who died at the World Trade Center in terrorist attack on September 11, 2001 and the dream of building the Trade Center again became a reality today.
Reaction (describe your feelings or attitudes) My reaction to this is great to see something that was destroyed and is able to stand tall again at 1,776ft. It would be amazing to see the other tower be built (Twin Towers).
Opinion (I think..) I think that this could be a testimony for our lives that when you fall down you could come up even stronger.
Connection (why you chose this article) I chose this article because it was inspirable and memorial due to the 9/11 attack. The World Trade Center marks the final piece renewal of Manhattan that was rebuilt for what was lost. While I was in New York City during the summer I saw that the World Trade Center was under construction and it was looking marvelous. I was eager to see what it was going to look like when completed.

ReplyDeleteArticle Title: GOP Picks Up Two Senate Seats from Democrats
Article Date: Updated Nov. 4, 2014 8:53 p.m. ET
Who: Tom Cotton vs. Sen. Mark Pryor and Rep Shelley Moore vs. Natalie Tennant
Where: In Arkansas and Virginia
When: In recent days due to elections. November 3 and 4
What happened: Republicans seem to have gained the upper hand in the senate when six seats have been secured by them due to the compiled votes of Virginia and Arkansas. In Virginia Rep. Shelley Moore managed to pull through beating out Natalie Tennant who was a Democrat for the seat. While in Arkansas Tome Cotton beat Sen. Mark Pryor for a seat. While others states may have won easier victories, the fight continues in some of the states to gain an elected governor most favors in other states seem to be tipping on the sides of republicans.
Why this event is relevant: This event is relevant due to the fact that some of these outcomes have not have been seen for years on end, as far as republicans owning more seats that could possibly sway the senate into any direction they want. This could lead the house to become House Majority Republican.
Reaction (I do not think it is all good because I believe that if there is no balance that a whole barricade of problems may arise from this time forth.)
Opinion (I think that if all these Republicans do get elected for governor in their perspective states that it will indeed cause sort of a hindrance to the decisions that could be made by our President Barack Obama in his last year of service.
Connection (I do not really have any connections with this I just know that multiple problems may arise when one group may be on terms with each other against an equal authority, and it does not end well. )

The mob of people broke the couple legs so they couldn't run or hide. They tossed the couple in the fire inside of the Kiln. The Prime Minister said he will have no mercy on the people who committed this crime.
Why this event is relevant: It is important because a angry mob killed a couple because they felt the couple burned pages of the Quran. If people have the right to kill other people because of people religion than mobs of people will do the same thing all around the world.
Reaction (describe your feelings or attitudes) I feel bad that the Pakistan people killed the Christians of what they believe in
Opinion (I think..) I feel like it is wrong to punish anyone by death concerning religion. People shouldn't take the law in their own hands because someone has a different religion Everyone who is Muslim may feel different about killing someone because someone disrespected the Quran.
Connection (why you chose this article) I am a Christian and I have friends that are Muslim. I don't think you should kill anyone because of religion

Reaction: My reaction to this news is that I am not surprised and that I agree with the mayor of Ferguson when he says that people should prepare for the worst.
Opinion: I feel that when the Mike Brown trial is over, I feel like the officer will walk free like always. Its sad that I feel that way but I can't feel any other way. The media and everyone against Mike Brown will find any and everything bad about his character and use it against him in the trial.

ReplyDeleteArticle Title: The title of my article is “Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign quietly begins to take shape”.
Article Date: My article was published on Tuesday November 4, 2014.
Who: Hillary Clinton, Democrats and Republicans, Former President Bill Clinton, Current President Barrack Obama, and other politicians.
Where: This took place in Washington D.C.
When: This event happened in the end of September of this year and is still continuing.
What happened: In order to win a stronger place in the government, Hillary Clinton is building up her very own campaign to run for presidency. Clinton’s associates are compiling democratic votes in order to have a strong start. Her husband, Bill Clinton also former president of the United States has teamed up with Barrack Obama in order to strengthen Hillary’s campaign. Together, they have captured the attention of both democrats and republicans. Republicans are against Clinton and Obama’s collaboration, believing it will drive our country straight down. However, slowly but surely Hillary Clinton increases her popularity and votes with her strong campaign group.
Why this event is relevant: This event is relevant because if successful, Hillary Clinton would be America’s first female president.
Reaction (describe your feelings or attitudes): I support Hillary Clinton’s campaign because it would be a huge leap in American history.
Opinion (I think..): I think Clinton would be a good president. This is because her husband was a president and she saw how to run the country as a Former First Lady. She knows what the public needs, and is fairly trusted if current president Barrack Obama is supporting her.
Connection (why you chose this article): A connection between Hillary Clinton’s campaign and Barrack Obama’s former campaign is that if either win, a huge step in American history is made. President Obama made history by being the first black president, and Hillary, if won, would make history for being America’s first female president.

Who: Ferguson Mayor
Where: Ferguson,Missouri, USA
When: Today
What happened: After the teen, Michael Brown got shot by a white officer, citizens of Ferguson started to revolt and make riots in order to receive justice for what happened. The Don't Shoot Coalition created 19 "Rules of Engagement" which is to prevent anymore disputes between civilians and officers. In fear of the officers not responding to the rules, he told officials to prepare for the worst, like more chaos and riots in Ferguson. The rules are also meant to be spread throughout the region not just the particular town.
Why this event is relevant: Because this topic has been around for a while, and people still want to outcomes of the incident.

ReplyDeleteArticle Title: Legal pot on the ballot
Who: People in Alaska, Oregon, D.C and Colorado
Where: Alaska, Oregon and D.C
When: November 4, 2014
What happened: This year’s Election Day put two states and one district on the ballot for legalizing recreational use of marijuana. These places are Alaska, Oregon and Washington D.C. Washington is not trying to legalize the sell of marijuana but is making it legal to own under two ounces. This article also brings up the pros of this decision from Colorado. Colorado created $38 million in taxes which is going for the good of the people. It also brings up the cons like marijuana still being available on the black market and the lack of banks and federal places for marijuana.
Why this event is relevant: This event is relevant to government because it touches on taxes, federal systems and the status of legalizing marijuana across the nation.
Reaction: I feel like these places should legalize marijuana because I think that it’s only a plant that many people are being imprisoned for.
Opinion: I think that the legalization of marijuana is a good thing in many ways. For one, I think marijuana with taxes could help with America’s debt and it could also support reconstruction and industrial growth within the nation and the states. I also think that this will give people jobs which will lower the employment rate. This can also help stop cartels and other crimes.
Connection: I picked this article because it seems like the past two years, including this one, was active with the issue of cannabis and this is interesting.

ReplyDeleteArticle Title: Same-sex wedding video sentenced
Article Date: November 1, 2014
This article discusses the "crime" of same-sex marriage in Egypt. There is a video of eight men dressed elegantly, amongst this small group are two grooms. They also had a cake with two male faces in it. Well, as one might infer by the details the setting is a wedding. After the discovery of this video the eight men involved were placed under arrest for three years. General Hisham describes the mens' actions as something totally against what they live for. Along with the three years sentenced in prison, seven of the eight men were physically tested to tell whether they were gay or not. All of those tested results came back as not gay. They were "proven" to not have had sex with another man. The eighth man did not show up to the testing. I think that this is upsetting. We have evolved into a different tradition, where everyone is different. These men should not get penalized for their sexual preference. Ostracizing those with differences doesn't make this world a better place. This is relevant because there are a lot of times when people's sexual preference determine their success and happiness in life. I think your success and happiness should be determined by you in your own life.
This story is bizarre.

Article Date: November 7, 2014
Who: U.S Army, African
Americans
Where: United States Of America
When: November 7, 2014
What happened: The United States finally removed a policy in the Army that allowed soldiers to use the word "Negro" to address an African American. CNN says the Army removed the policy once it was brought to their attention. This article also states that Senator Tim Scott, the first African American in the South elected to Senate, wanted to reach out to the Army after hearing news about this event.
Why this article is relevant: This article is relevant because African Americans have been through racial inequality for years.
Reaction: My reaction to this was anger. For one, the fact that this policy has just been removed is disappointing because this should have been abolished with all of the other racist policies that were removed in the 1960's.
Opinion: In my opinion the U.S only removed this policy because it was looked up and brought to the public's attention. I also believe that the U.S thought this wasn't s a big deal and kind of brushed it off to the side.
Connection: As an African-American I automatically have relativeness with this article, and also the fact that I want to be a soldier in that branch of the military.
