Binge drinking and test taking.

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,589970,00.html

What an amazing study researchers have found! This article I found to be interesting, 1. because I am a college student 2. I do drink from time to time and 3. I really did believe that drinking the night before a test is a bad idea. This doesn't mean I'm going to start doing this, but I thought It'd be a funny article for the fellow students to read.

I think this is a good article because it is entertaining and it gives a lot of information. The information is not only about the study but also about the myth that go along with binge drinking the night before a test. The article states where the tests were being done and that the study is actually being published in April. It gives just enough information for the audiences to be captivated and entertained!

A month with the internet? NO WAY!!

A month without the web would be very difficult for me to do. I use the internet everyday, and without it I'd be pretty bored. I could see going a week or two without, but it'd be pretty pitiful. I'm not going to lie, I use facebook everyday. If I went a few weeks without it would be pretty tough because this website the key to all my social activities. A friends having a house party, facebook's there to send the invitation. A local charity is happening in a few weeks, facebook is there to tell me where and when. It helps me connect with friends from everywhere, and that's so convenient. What I use daily are facebook, youtube, google, hotmail, and occasionally myspace. Websites related to my track are Current TV, CNN News, and MSN News. If I had a go a month without the internet I guess I would turn to the good ol' newspaper, television, and books.

Project

The project that we did for class I found to be really enjoyable. I went to a local pet store and interviewed the owner and how she feels about local competition and what the store has to offer compared to other pet store.
The pet store was awesome, the pets were all in great shape and very happy. The puppies here looked so much happier and healthier than the puppies in Pet Zone located in Aviation Mall. Here at Puppy Paws, I could stay as long as I wanted to and could pet any puppy I wanted. I loved the interview so much I actually made a purchase myself.
I have a very small apartment and I've been looking for a pet to suit me and also the size of my place. When I walked in I saw the cutest female baby bunny, and after talking to the owner I decided to buy her. The coolest thing was that the actual bunny was free as long as I bought her cage and the kit that went with it. What a great deal right? I was going to buy the cage and accessories regardless, but offering the pet for free was great.
I wanted to do this article because I know a lot of people want to purchase puppies now that winters basically done. I see people walking their dogs and new puppies down the road everyday, and well if I can find a place where I know it's guaranteed, high quality, healthy pure bred puppies, I have to tell people where to purchase them. A dog isn't just another pet, they end up being like family, so people should purchase puppies where they know they've always been loved.

Are you consuming mercury?

http://www.naturalnews.com/028284_fish_mercury.html

The article I choice I found to be very interesting, which is the biggest reason why I choice it. If you read the article you will learn, that 291 of the fresh water streams in the United States that were tested, all the fish living in them are contaminated with mercury. That is so awful, especially for the animals and humans that are eating these fishes.

I found this to be a good article because it's very interesting, informative, and clear to the point it was making. It even gave information about mercury in case the audience didn't know enough about it. It also gave information about the research that has been going on concerning the mercury in the fish. This is very important to us because if we are eating these contaminated fishes then we could possibly run into health issues with our own bodies and even our future children.
