In the article Broadcasting a World of Whiteness by Jon Caramanica, talks about a new tv show on HBO called " Girls " and many believe that the show is racist because of the lack of african american characters in the show and the show has racial slurs. For Example It tells how on a scene after the two cast member named Hannah, played by Lena Dunham and her non boyfriend Adam (Adam Driver) have sex, once they're finished he made a comment promising he"s going to make the "continent of Africa on" Hanna's arm. Also a remark from another cast member said " I want to have children with many different men, of different races."
I honestly dont really care about ONE tv show that doesnt have black characters. There are a million and one tv shows with either all black characters, or half the cast is black characters or all white characters . It just takes one click to find a show that fits your preferences.

New Jersey Woman Says She Was Fired For Being Too Busty
http://gma.yahoo.com/jersey-woman-she-fired-being-too-busty-015114881--abc-news-topstories.html
a data entry worker Lauren Odes for Native Intimates from new Jersey was fired from her job for not covering up .
Her supervisor , a orthodox Jew said her outfits to work were distracting .
This disrespectful thing about this situation is , the supervisors told her to tape down get breasts , and gave her a bathrobe and told her to wear it for the rest of the day. Who wears a bathrobe to work !?
They also said if she didn't want to wear the bathrobe , she had to go out and buy a long grandma dress and put it on. so that's what she did , and while out looking for that horrid outfit , they called her and fired her .
this article made me feel mad , the store didn't gave a specific dresscode , so why would they be so discriminative .. especially for the type of company their running. their just jealous of Laurens body i guess they want her to wear a cardboard box to work, but what still has me heated is what type of respected business tells someone to tape down their body parts because they're too big , I'm glad she did call in her attorney because if that was me , i would have sued them for every penny they had .
Its very weird for a jew to tell a person that works for a lingerie place to cover up her clothes. when you barley wear clothes when you have on lingerie.

Reflection ...
Before I was never really interested in Journalism .. i barley knew what it was about. Now, im still not interested in it because i hate writing newspapers... i hate writing period. For example, i hated writing newspapers .. i wish we did something else. I hated it because everytime i wrote something .. i had to keep editing it over, and over, and over again & i will be honest, i dont have the patience for things like that.
Since coming to high school, i've changed. I use to be a little, small shy girl. But now i could care less about what people think. Im small but im big and mighty at heart. I think i changed for the good, because i take up for myself a little more. For example, if i feel disrespected, i'll tell you straight off how i feel. with no hesitation.
Also, since coming to high school, i separated myself from people that i don't need in my life, such as bad influences and negative people. Even if i been with them for a long time. As i get older, i learned that some people are just better off alone than with a flock of haters .

Tony Hawk Response
I Believe with Tony Hawk when he says " I Believe that people should take pride in what they do, even if it is scorned or misunderstood by the public at large." I Believe in this too because at the end of the day, your doing what YOU want to do or what makes YOU happy. Who cares about what others think. I Always say, the only reason people are hating on you is because they wish they were you. basically, jealousy is taking over them.
The part of the excerpt where Tony Hawk talked about how his teachers use to embarrass him in front of his class because he never followed directions really was an example of how teachers are part of the reason why teenagers have low self esteem. Telling a student that they wont make it anywhere because they don't follow directions, or they don't listen are LIES.
The reason why i said that is because my brother use to fight almost everyday in middle school and high school, and teachers use to always tell him he wasn't gonna be nothing, BUT sadly for them my brother graduated high school, got accepted into Penn State, graduated, and is now in another school for culinary arts.
I personally think the people that bring you down are mad because they didn't get far in life. And the negative feedback only encourages you to work harder to be better than them.

New Fashion Wrinkle
The article "New Fashion Wrinkle: Stylish Hiding the Gun" is about a new type of clothing entering the fashion industry. They are pants that are designed to hide your gun.
These pants " Chinos " cost $65. But since it came out, the clothing company Woolrich came out with a whole clothing line called " Woolrich Elite Concealed Carry Line "that sells both shirts and pants.
I personally think the clothing line is unnessicary. I really think its a waist of money. And even if stores do decide to sell them, they should ask for the permit before paying for the clothes .
I dont like the idea because its dumb. People have been carrying guns around for years in a holster and hasnt had a problem with the way they carry it.
If i had a gun, i personally wouldnt waist $65 on a pair of pants just for the " gun pockets ". I'd rather take my money and but a new JC Bracelet.
In the article, the vice president of 5.11 Tactical said " what we've tried to do is create a collection of garments that allows the end of user to have stylish lifestyle appeal but have features in the garment that enable then to carry a weapon and draw the weapon quickly ".
- it was easier to carry it in a holster , just lift up your shirt and point . plain and simple .

Parkway W. Health Fair .
Last week, Parkway West had a health fair to provide students about sex, drugs, STD's, parenting, depression, pregnancies , abortion, and healthy habits. Most of the information came from brochures and papers the seniors put together for their senior projects in which they had to do before they graduate.
What i like about the health fair is that, every topic/category had its own table. for example, healthy eating had the first table, which had fruits and little brochures and books about how to take care of your body.
What i didn't like about the health fair is that its was cluttered, no space to breath, i thought they should have had it in an empty room instead of the auditorium.
Some information that i learned from the fair is that many people use drugs for athletic reasons and most of the time its because they are pressured to won from a coach, parents, media, public, financial reward, unrealistic qualifying standards and performance expectations.
I have learned a lot from this health fair and its was really interesting learning about taking care of yourself and the people around you.

Frankford Dirt - Bike Tragedy !
Four - Teen year old Jermaine Alexander grew up with a passion and interest for dirt bikes, but sadly his interest turned deadly. Philly.com said " On March 13, the 14 year old sprinted from Warren G. Harding Middle School to a friend's house to borrow a dirt bike. He and a buddy returned to school past their classmates at dismissal, a show of coolness."
Im really still appalled at the fact that a 14 year old and a 15 year old has a dirty bike.
Philly.com also said Eric Carter, 15, who was riding with Alexander, said cops in a marked police cruiser spotted them at Frankford and Oxford and gave chase. Police say there was no chase."
I dont believe the cops. There are a lot of cops that harass innocent people because they have nothing to do with their lives, and i know this from personal experience . About two years ago, the day of my cousins graduation, my brother got pulled over by a cop on his way to pick my cousin up. My brother was driving a car my uncle rented for my cousins big day. He got pulled over , the cop told him to get out of the car and everything , all unnecessary . They ran the plates, saw it was rented and was about to arrest my brother until he told them to call my uncle and confirm.
These days , you really cant trust anyone , not even the people thats here to protect out society . They worry so much about the smallest things instead of the biggest problem on the streets oh philly. http://articles.philly.com/2012-04-09/news/31313339_1_streets-police-cruiser-boys-split

Rascism still exsists today .
The horrible death of Trayvon Martin has touched hearts all over the US and even in some foreign countries . Seven - Teen year old Trayvon Martin was shot & killed in a nearby gated community near his home in Sanford Florida . The ironic thing about his death is that he was killed by a neighborhood watch captain . Someone who is suppose to prevent activities like this from happening . Yes , he was white and his statement was that " Trayvon looked suspicious " so he shot innocent Trayvon because he had a good on walking through a white neighborhood .
Another example of rascism is by movie watchers of " The Hunger Games " . Many people who are familiar with the book by Suzanne Collins. One particular character ( Rue ) has caught the eye of many . On twitter , many have made the comment that they didn't expect Rue to be a little black girl as played in the movie version, but in Suzannes book she specifically said Rue was " brown skinned " .
what bothers me the most is, what does the skin color of a movie character have to do with their performance of the role. I personally don't judge people by the color of their skin but by the content of their character ( dr. martin luther king ) . it makes me upset that or brave heroes and ancestors from back in the day fought for our freedom and equal right and for the ending of slavery & today we are still being judged by skin color. I thought it was over .. but I guess not .
* no links, I just spilled my thoughts out .

Most Births Outside Marriage
The article "For Women Under 30, Most Births Occur Outside Marriage" is about most women under 30, are having babies without being married and the percentage is rising. I really don't think that there is anything wrong with having a baby outside of marriage. As long as the mother or father has a good support system by their side they can be successful with their baby.
I think many people is concerned that if you have a baby outside of marriage the father would abandon the baby, thinking its not theirs. Many people would want to wait to get married. For me personally, i dont want to get married young. i would want to get married when im at least 35 - 45 years old.
Based on the information on the article on new york times, in 2009, more than 50% of births were within a marriage. . and 92% of college educated women give birth when married. i think thats good. but for me i wouldn't get married in college.
Ashira Mason think that today in our generation, many teens are getting pregnant and they arent mature enough to have a baby. i agree these teens should be wait to have a baby.

900-year-old heart: Catholic church pleads for return of stolen relic
Who Stole St. Laurence O'Tooles' Heart ?
A 900 year old heart was stolen from a Roman Catholic church in dublin, ireland. Lucan Ua Tuathail also known as St. Laurence O'Tooles' heart was preserved and put into a heart shaped box, protected by a cage and mounted onto the wall of Christ Church Cathedral. The perp cut through the box and stole the valuable but precious heart on Saturday.
- Who steals the heart of a saint. Are people really that dumb these days to steal something so valuable. If you try to sell it for money, you'll get caught and be put in jails for a long time. Out of all the thing on earth. They could have stole a car, a phone, candy from their corner store, nooo they decide to take the heart of St. Laurence. I think that is so wrong. When that person gets caught he/she should be put away for eternity or be killed the old fashion way by stoning or with a sword. this crime is too serious to be forgiven for.

iPods In China,
In this article called In China, Human Costs Are Built Into an iPad people that worked at some iPad factories were being treated horribly. In this article it says how 20 employees were being put into a 3 bedroom apartment to share. It also said that workers were getting injured by standing all day. Some employees had 24 hour shifts and worked 6 days a week . Apple Had this motto Saying work hard on the job today or work hard to find a job tomorrow. I Don't like this just because of how they was treating the employees. They could of gave the employees better homes instead of making 20 of them share a 3 bedroom apartment. I believe someone should really look into this and actually start a protest to the Apple Co. for their horrible treatments.
Im a criminal
In this article, " I am a criminal and so are you" law professor Michelle Alexander believes that everyone is a criminal. She believes that everyone has broken at least a couple laws in their lives. smoked, did underaged drinking, go above the speed limit, drink & drive, etc.
Michelle Alexander believes that the public believes that a criminal is the people who are in jail for crimes like murder, rape, theft, broader crimes, but even the people outside the jail cells committed a couple crimes. Even the cops thats protecting and serving today committed crimes, and even our very own president did a few crimes throughout his lifetime and admitted it. No matter how small the crime is, j walking, running through a stop sign, stealing a pack of gum from the corner store, everyone is a criminal.
In the article, it says " i doubt Barack Obama thinks of himself as a criminal, though he should, He has admitted to using illegal drugs during college years -- lots, in fact. Even our own president has admitted to doing illegal drugs throughout his college years.
In my opinion , a criminal is a person who did a really serious crime , like rape , or stealing , or killing. If you J Walk , or take a piece of candy from the store it shouldn't really be considered a crime.

After reading this article it just makes me even more aware of my postings and that im not the only one that is causes of the internet .

Chris Brown & Rihanna Reunited ?
Rihanna and Chris Brown Reunited . Two songs dropped early last week with a collaboration . Chris Browns "Turn Up The Music" and Rihannas "Birthday Cake Remix". The two also got cozy at the grammys, and also tweet each other from time to time. Yesterday ( Feb. 20th ) was Rihanna's birthday and Chris Brown tweeted Rihanna repeatedly happy birthday .
- I personally think rihanna and Chris is too cute. yea he messed up big time and abused a female, ( rihanna ) but people make mistakes and deserve a second chance . They sub tweet about each other ALL THE TIME and only true fans would realize. I just think that since the incident they still had love in their hearts for each other and always will. i also believed that they never " stopped talking". They subtweet about each other and only lord knows if they text, email, and visit each other.
They'll get back together , I'M SURE OF IT .

Photoshop Or Not?
The article titled " Photoshop or Not? A Tool to Tell " from the New York Times is about how 2 computer scientists ( Dr. Farid and Eric Kee ) are researching how much photos have been changed photoshop wise. Many photos that are in magazines or on billboards has been changed to make the person seem prettier or more handsome.
what photoshop does is that it could take a pimple or a blemish off of a persons face and makes their skin look flawless; it could also make a heavy set person look skinny or a skinny person look more full figured.
based on the information from the article Dr. Farid and Eric Kee are proposing a software tool for measuring how much fashion and beauty photos have been alterd, a 1-to-5 scale that distinguishes the very little from the fantastic.
Question #1 : Do you think super-skinny, overly perfect images of women in magazines, the internet, and TV encourage eating disorders and low self-esteem in the people who see those images?
- Yes , because many people think that the celebrities they see in magazines and on tv is what they look like foreal but its really not. These celebrities put the thought into peoples head that their suppose to be THAT skinny.
Question #2 : Do you think altered images should be labeled so that those who look at magazines can know how much the images has been changed ?
- Yes, this would make the readers feel better about how they look. I really dont see why people change their appearence jst for a magazine/photo shoot.

Cracking Teenagers' Online Codes
The article Mr. Petro gave us from the New York Times is about Dr. Boyd researching whether the Internet is helpful to teenagers or danger to them.
I personally think that the even though there are perverts and predators online lurking us responsible teenagers should be able to work online and not having our parents looking over our shoulder every 2 minutes to see who am i talking to and what i am looking up on google.
" The most deadly misconception about American youth has been the sexual predator panic,"

Snookie , Pretty WITHOUT Makeup .
Snookie Without Makeup ,
so , i found an article on E- Online debating if snookie looks better with or without makeup. Well ... If you ask me , She Gorgeous ! She posted the picture on twitter with words above it saying "No make up day :) and IDC (I don't care)," and she got alot of positive feedback from her fans from all over.
It always puzzles me why celebrities always put a ton of makeup on their face , when naturally , they look beautiful. I understand that for some people like ( tyra banks) but i think some celebs need to tone it down a little.
Immidiately , snookie got alot of feedback from her fans and responded saying , "Can I just say how amazing my fans/supporters are! You guys really know how to put a smile on my face! Love you all beyond words." I love when celebs show alot of love to their fans , its cute : )

10 Year Old boy Stabs His Friend While Playing Outside.
ABC Local News - San Diego Stabbing.
A 10 year old was playing in his driveway with his friends , and stabbed one of his friends with a kitchen knife. They say the boy had been going to therapy for anger issues , and took medication for ADHD.
First and Foremost, why was those kids outside , in a driveway, by themselves , unsupervised? If there was a responsible adult outside, then this wouldn't have happened.
Secondly, why did that troubled child have a knife? a knife tho? i wouldn't let my child outside with a spoon much less a knife. But hey , thats just me.

3 Biggest Story Of 2011
Troops To Come Home.
The number 1 story of 2011 is the ending to the war on Iraq. US soldiers left Iraq Sunday, December 18th, 2011 with big smiles, fist pumping and hugging each other across the border in joy. What puzzled me the most is that the US Treasury spend $800 billion and took more than 4,500 Americans out into the " wild " and took the lives of more than 100,000 Iraqi lives. Why did they even want war with Iraq ? - was it even necessary!
Its really cool how they get to come back home, I have family in the army. So for them to come back home & be with us is joyful. but when i think of how men have pregnant wives at home or their wife just had a newborn and they don't know what their dad looks like, its really sad.
I personally think that even when Bush was in office, he should have sent the troops back home because i really didn't see the real reason for having our brave, courageous family members out in the danger for no reason.
