War On Terrorism

I just read an article about the government's attempts to diminish terrorist attacks on the United States otherwise known as our war on terrorism. The government has made alot of new rules in airports to reduce chances of another incident such as 9/11. the government is also working on systems to detect and prevent terrorist attacks before they can happen to save thousands of lives. I think that terrorism is very bad and its a good thing that it is being prevented.

Imperialism in Africa

Today I chose to read about British imperialism in Africa. It seems that the British are very interested in their own financial gain and this is what drives every decision they make in Africa. Britain has had several colonies in South Africa, Egypt, and anywhere that has resources. To look morally conscious they stopped the slave trade in South Africa and even the one in Zanzibar. they have done much to protect the Suaz Canal that goes through Egypt because it is a prime route to get to their colony India. In South Africa the British have exploited diamond mines since the first colonized the region long ago. article here

World population

Recently I read an article about a day called world population day that was created in 1987 when the world's population first surpassed 5 billion. The population is now climbing beyond 6.7 billion and is accompanied with decreasing water resources, food production, and many other problems that plague society. If our planet's population rate does not lower significantly soon we will need to completly strip our planet of any and all resources that it contains and then everybody will be gone. I hope that something can be done in the near future to keep our future generations living comfortably.

NASCAR Fan's Favorite Holiday

I just read an article about every rednecks favorite day of the year, the Daytona 500. This is the day when we all get to see our favorite drivers loop around the track and we can cheer our guts out. This year there's a newcomer who's only 18 years old and everyone is curious as to how he will do. Everyone needs to get used to a few people not driving anymore in this race. I hope its a good one.

Bollywood?

Today I read an article about the recent film Slum Dog Millionaire. The article talked about how the movie really isn't as much Bollywood as the British director advertises it. the movie was about an hour shorter than the average Bollywood movie and didn't include nearly as much singing and dancing. I haven't yet seen the movie but after reading this article I don't know if i'll want to. It seems sort of lame to see a poser movie. Well thats my analisis of the article.
