18 Bodies Found In northern mexico mass grave

I read a article called, ''18 bodies found in northern mexico mass grave,'' in the Tuscaloosa News. This article was about the mexican army discovered several clandetines graves holding at least 18 bodies near a ranch in the northern state of chihahua. My opinon on this is that this article has alot of unanswered questions.

Fair Isle, Plaid keeps gift trends great for whole family

I read a article about great gift trends for whole family. I found it interesting because it talks about what is new and in-style. It also gave you some good gift ideas for Christmas. This article caught my attention because I love to go shopping an buy clothes. So this Christmas be sure to go check out all the holiday sales and get in-style with all these new fashion ways !

The boy who shot his self

Today in the newspaper i read in one of the articles about a boy who shot his self 3 times. the boy was 15 years old. He held Two dozen students and a teacher on hostage.I think that he was having some serious issues for him to do something that crazy. He probably shot himself because he knew that he would get in a lot of trouble for doing that. But he should have have responsibilities for his actions.

The Class War Rages on in U.S.

I read an interesting article in the Tuscaloosa News. The title was The Class War Rages on in U.S. It is a war that no one wants to talk about anymore. Millions of people are out of work and struggling to find money and jobs. People aren't having enough money for the holidays. I think people shouldn't have to be losing their jobs and struggling to get money. People who got an education should always have a job. People who didn't care enough to get an education shouldn't care enough to have a job either but that's just my opinion.

U.S says leaks crime threatens prosecution

I read in the Tuscaloosa news that in Washington, Obama branded "wiki leaks" which released a quarter-million files and raised suspicion of criminal prosecutions in connections with exposure wiki leaks may have defeated pentagon security systems using a little more than a Lady Gaga CD and a computer memory stick. I think that this is the security's fault and that they should make some safety changes to secure whatever it is that they are trying to keep secret.

Afghan officer kills 6 U.S. service members

I read an article in the Tuscaloosa news titled "Afghan officer kills 6 U.S. service members". A man killed these men in a shoot out, and then got killed himself. I don't understand why this kind of violence happens. I mean, you can be mad at others and not have to kill them. Just because these mean were his enemies, he felt like he had his opportunity to shine, and murdered innocent victims. For what? Because he also died. He got nothing out of it, and he sure isn't a "hero" in my book, he's a bad man.

Thanksgiving

What are you thankful for? I am thankful for a couple of things, one of which is my wonder, yet hyper, sister. I wanted to have a sister so badly and God gave her to me and for that I am proud of her always. Another thing I am grateful for is being thought how to be polite and careing to others,though most of the time I take that a little to far and put others above me. I am still glad to help anyone out and without my grandparents teaching me that I would probably be in a very bad situation. I am most gratful to have the friends I have and the teachers that are so kind to me. But most of all I am happy to be a servant of God.

Thanksgiving

Are you thankful for anything this year? Well, I am I'm thankful for my great family and wonderful friends. On Thanksgiving I always go eat with all my family.

This Thanksgiving try to be thankful for something you have that others don't.

This thanksgiving, give thanks

I am so thankful for everything in my life. God has blessed me with a great family and wonderful friends; but this Thanksgiving, think about those who aren't as fortunate as you, who don't have food, or heat, or anyone to spend Thanksgiving with, or even those who have all of that stuff but still are not truly happy. We complain about everything, we don't like this food, or that food, but others would be so thankful to have any food. Give Thanks, and have a great Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving

This thanksgiving you should think about what your thankful for, be happy for what you have and stop worrying about what you don't have. This is the time to spend with family and friends and all talk and not have to worry about everything else in the world that is going on. There are many people over seas who won't be able to be with there families for thanksgiving so think about that next time you have a complaint, because you have it better than they do. I hope you have a wonderful thanksgiving!

What

Tippacanoe and Davis, Too

A good ole boy, and an old teacher of mine, was Mr. Will Davis, at Echols Middle School. Most of you guys haven't met him, since you all went to Lloyd Wood, but just because he was at the better middle school doesn't mean he wasn't a good guy. He was always very supportive, from that time at the Pamper Pole (A 20 foot tall pole that you jumped off of) down near Mobile, and when I was the captain of our Scholar's Bowl team, and managed to never win much of anything at all. I think we had the best time out of all of the teams, though. If you read this, Will, I hope you've had a good time so far, and continue to do so. Say hi to Elizabeth for me, if you see her.

Favorite teacher?

Do you have a favorite teacher? Well i do Mrs. Burgess she was my 5th grade teacher. She helped me in so many ways , she encouraged me that i could do better each time i made a mistake. She taught really good so i could understand better. She always gave me awards for having good grades and being the best improved in her class. She was just one of those teachers that always new what to say to help an encourage improvment. Mrs. Burgess was my favorite teacher , so whos yours?

Teacher

My first grade teacher Mrs. Gail's made a change in my life she showed me how too work hard and have confidence in my self to know I can do good.She took the time before and after school to help me with my work.She made sure I had what I needed to learn and to get my work done.Every since then I make sure I get my work done and make good grades,that's how she made a difference in my life.

My Favorite teacher!

I do not have a favorite teacher, there is so many teachers that i liked so im just going to name the top three. Mrs. Townsend, she was the kindest person, though she was a little to kind and made her blind to somethings she was very kind. She would always help you if you needed help and was always there for you. Next is Mrs. Lucky from TCHS, she was very unusal but she was really funny. She also helped me out in many things and for that I'm grateful for. and last Mrs. Walker, the teacher of this block I have right now, she is very kind and hard working and probably works harder then most teachers. She stays sometimes after school till 8 and takes her time to make sure everything is right. Thanks to her we have a spanish class and a newspaper. God bless you all, and we Luv you! ^.^

Drinking and driving is bad

Today is a really good day for me because I'm going to B-Ham after school,I'm so happy. I really wanted my dad to go with us but unfortunately he can't because he has to work double shifts.I hope we get to go this weekend. I like the basketball team so far they have been doing really good. In health today we talked about how 75% of teens die from drunk driving. I think that it really made some people who drink think about the serious consequences that happen when they drink and drive. we also watched a video on it and that made me think of all the teens that are here and they drink.sometimes the person drinking isn't the person who ends up getting killed in the car accident its the passengers in the car with him. It's illegal to drink if your under 21.Teensthat are in school should not drink or any teens in this world. Drinking can be bad for everyone.

Special Teacher

Have you ever had a teacher that you know you will always remember? One that has inspired you? I have had one and he was my coach and my teacher. His name is Bradley Atchenson. He has helped me through so much. He has help me not only on the field but also in the classroom. He has inspired me to keep playing softball and hopefully college ball. Hes also help me keep up my grades. One thing I love about him is I know I can go to him about anything and he will give me great advice on what I should do. I will know I will never forget him. I hope you have had a teacher like I have and if you haven't I hope you do in the future.

My favorite teacher through my school years has been Mr.Ferrell..The reason is because he's been a great influence on my life..He helps me keep my grades up if I'm struggling,he talks to me about the world and how our society is today, he keeps me on the right track,helps me with sports...Coach Ferrell is like a father to mostly every student he's had that's why he's my favorite teacher..

The teacher I love.

I have had a teacher that has changed my life. Mrs. Wilson was my science teacher for two years, but I have known her for twelve. She has been through some tough times, but she never gave up. She showed me that whatever I was going through, I had someone there to pick me back up. She was like a mother to me. No matter the circumstance, she always knew what to say to make me feel better about what I was dealing with.

A teacher that helped me with alot.

Have you ever had a teacher that you will never forget? A teacher that was always there for you? A teacher you could tell anything? Well i have an it was my 5th grade teacher Mrs. Burgess. She was there for me whenever i needed her and i felt like i could tell her anything. I was friends with her daughter and that helped us get closer. I will never forget her she encourged me and helped me through a lot and i really appreciated it.

Who Dares, Wins

If you didn't notice all of the other posts, and I doubt that you did, since I am talking to a merely metaphorical reader and very few actual readers, it's kindness week. Believe it or not, there is a whole 1/52nd of our year dedicated to being nice to people. The rest of the time, you can just act how you feel like, right? It doesn't matter how you treat other people, right? The answer is no. It always matters when you are kind to another person, or if they are kind to you, regardless of what week it is. I ask you to dare to be a kind person, a good person, no matter what week it is. Also, have a good day.

Are you kind?

Do you like when someone gives you an compliment or does something nice for you? well alot of people do. This week is kindness week if you didnt know, so if it is someone out their that has did something kind for you go out their and do something kind for them. So think about it, is it somebody out their you can do something for and put a smile on their face. Even if you cant think of someone just go and do something kind for someone anyways cause being kind is the way to be.

Sipsey Valley Kindness

For those who don't know, this week is kindness week. I have done several nice things for people for this reason. It shows you how nice it feels to do something nice for someone else and not wanting anything in return. You can do many things that would help people out and would make them happy. Be kind and doing something for someone today!

If you got kindness, use it!

This week is world kindness week. World kindness week is about showing and being kind to someone. when you be kind to someone you don't suppose to look for something in return when you do it. I think that being kind is a good characteristic for a person to have. if your kind to someone you will be blessed for it even if they don't appreciate it you know that you did something nice for someone and it makes you fell good inside. More people today need to be kind and take it in consideration to do good things everyday even if its just saying thanks. So remember to always KIND!

Got Kindness?

Have you ever been kind to someone? Or has someone been kind to? This week was kindess week. Kindness isn't about wanting something back when you do something for someone. Kindness is when you doing something for someone because of a hard time or there sick or just to thank them for something they done for you or to just help them out or doing something just to kind. You could cut grass for an elderly man without him asking and not charging. That would be considered kind. Being kind shows great personality. When you kindness there is more a chance of someone being to you. So show kindness this week to someone.

Kindness at Sipsey Valley

Are you kind to people who are mean to you? This is kindness week so try to be kind to people who aren't that kind to you. I experienced kindness this week. A guy at my lunch table bought me something to eat even though I didn't I asked for it but he knew I was hungry and I didn't have any money. I was kind to someone this week. I brought this guy a brownie from my house who is always mean to me and picks on me. What did you experience or what did you do for someone?

Kindness

Did you know this week is kindness week ,so do something kind for someone.Being kind could be giving a classmate some paper.This week I gave a classmate a pencil so that they could do their work.Also I helped explain work to a friend who didn't understand their work.You could do something simple like not talking during in class and listening that would help a teacher out a lot.

Last night my sipsey valley high school basketball team started off the season without me.. I felt really disappointed to have to sit on the bench and watch my teammates lose horribly in our first game ever at our new school... I fell like i disappointed my school and coaches and players but tonight i look to redeem myself and help my team get a big win tonight.

Dream Job

Do you have a dream job? Have you ever taken time to sit an think about what you want to be? My dream job is a nurse. I've always wanted to be a nurse and help take care of children,babies and people. You have to go through more school in college to become a nurse. But it has good pay.Being a nurse is a big responsibility because you have to be on time and know how to work things and take care of patients and give shots the right way! So if you haven't started thinking about your dream job you probably should so you can get prepared and take the classes that are required.

So, how about that Republican House Majority?

Some of you, with that bizarre exception of the caveman who has an internet connection yet no interest in politics, may have heard that the Republicans have gained the House majority. There has been some talk about John Boehner being elected as the Speaker of the House, but Tea Party leader Michele Bachmann is going to run for the position, maybe with some success. It appears that the Tea Party has nearly run the GOP's campaign for them, grabbing all of the headlines to keep the public interested, and defeating Democrats in key states. The Republicans had better get used to the more hardline conservatives of the Tea Party, because they appear to be here to stay.

Dream Job

Do you have a dream job? What would you like to be when you grow up? My dream job is to be a pharamist. Pharamists fix your medicine. They get paid a pretty good amount of money. There are several steps you have to take before becoming a pharamist. You have to go through a lot more schooling after you get out of high school. You have to take certain classes to help you learn about the body and what every medicine is called and does.

My Dream Job

My dream job for now is to be a veterinarian. It would be a good job because you get to meet new people everyday.Also it's a good job because you can make a difference by saving an animal's life.They make very good money,if you like working with animals and other people then this would be a good job for you.You might not always think it's a dream job. You are going to know how to talk to people when they're in a bad or sad mood because of their animal's injuries.You will have to see unhappy dogs you might not always be able to save the animal's life.

Cancer is a word, not a sentence.

What is Breast Cancer? It's a disease in which malignant, otherwise known as cancer, cells form in the tissues of the breast. Depending on the age, the individual, and the cells with in the tumor itself, it can be a heterogeneous disease. No woman ever wants to hear the terrifying words "Breast Cancer" as a diagnosis, but just because you happen to have it doesn't mean it's a death sentence. It can be the beginning of a fight, getting to know the illness, and finding hope. Each year it is estimated that over 200,000 women will receive the diagnosis of having breast cancer and more than 40,000 will unfortunately die. Risk factors include, being over weight or obese, being over the age of 65, family history, and other medical issues. Every woman should have a early detection plan especially if it runs in your family's history. Beginning at the age of 20 you should start self-examinations and regular doctor visits. Any girl age 16 and up should get mammograms every one or two years to play it safe. I believe everyone should do their part in raising awareness and getting attention about this serious condition. You never know if one day that could be you. You can show awareness or help the Breast Cancer research programs by donating money or buying merchandise that organizations sell. I have already contributed to the "Breast Cancer Research Foundation" and you should too!

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous, Do not be terrified; Do not be discouraged, For the LORD your God will be with you where ever you go." -Joshua 1:9.

The Big election

I think that the election could have gone better . There need to be more voters out to vote. People need to vote because they need to be heard, when we are heard we will feel like our vote matters and that it made a difference in our government. Many of my family members voted, and I will vote when I get to that age where I can vote. If I could tell young people something to do with elections it would be, for them to vote, and let them know important it is for their voices to be heard. So, I encourage all people to vote.
