Police: Father of missing boys lied about relationship with woman

Recap:

This article is about three boys who went missing in Michigan lat Thursday. The father who says dropped them off at a lady named Joann Taylor's house tried to kill himself shortly after he dropped them off. He sent them to Taylor's house because he didn't want his three sons to witness his suicide. His three sons are now missing, and police cannot identify the women as the father says is Joann Taylor, they cannot identify any relationship. The father is now being held in a mental institute and the rest of the family is trying to find these three boys. Skelton who is the father said that Taylor was supposed to take them to Toledo by 3 pm Friday, the boys never arrived and the police cannot come to a conclusion whether or not that his story is true.

Opinion:

This was a very interesting article, I'm not sure to believe if Skelton's story is true. I am shocked that he tried to kill himself even though he had three sons. I feel like that would be enough of a reason to live. This case seems almost kind of creepy in a way, Skelton says he dropped his kids off but no one really knows what happened. There are endless possibilities to what the truth may be.

Prince William and Kate Middleton set date and venue for wedding

Recap:

This article is about Prince William and Kate Middleton. Prince William is the second in line for the throne of England and him and Kate have just recently become engaged. They have chosen a date and a venue for their wedding which will happen next spring at Westminster Abbey. Westminster Abbey was an interesting choice as many family members have had their weddings and funerals their. Queen Elizabeth was married there and Diana had her funeral there. Many people believe that they chose this venue and not St Paul's Cathedral so that they could get away from comparisons to Diana and Prince Charles wedding. The British government is also considering making the day a national holiday to commemorate their marriage forever. Scotland is still unsure about this. The royal family will be paying for the wedding but the government will be paying for all security.

Opinion:

I think that it is great that they are getting married. They have been together a long time and this will be something that will go down in British history. I believe that the royal family should pay for everything involved in the wedding including the security because why should the tax payers have to help pay for something that will be cause by these two people getting married. Also I think that they may be having their wedding at a place different than Diana and Charles to avoid comparisons however they may just want to be different and may want to have their wedding in the same place as Williams grandmother. This was a great article and it told me everything about their wedding.

Palin: 'I am' thinking about 2012 bid

Recap:

This article was about Sarah Palin and her life. A lot of people have been talking about how she may run for the head of her party for the 2012 election. In an interview last week she said she was seriously considering running for president of the United States of America. This decision for her would be a very large one and it depends if her colleagues, family and friends support her. She said she fears for the country and wants to make it a better place and she could do just that if she ran for president. This could be a life changing experience for her. This article also talks about how she teamed up with John Mccain in the last election and that may give her an advantage over other candidates because she is known to the general public.

Opinion:

I think that she will run for president. I think that she may win because of Obamas popularity going down so much over the past couple years.I think that it is very smart of her to consider this decision with her family and not take too much on at once, running for president is an absolute huge commitment and she should consider this with her family before she makes any commitment.

Crippled cruise ship expected in San Diego on Thursday

Recap:

This article was about the carnival cruise ship that broke down early Monday morning. It is now approaching land and the passengers are very excited about this. They have been airlifting food to the passengers on the ship from another ship. They are bringing them simple foods, such as sandwiches, water and granola bars. The ship has been without power since it broke down on Monday.This means no air conditioning, refrigeration or  running water. This has been difficult for the passengers. the cruise line has offered a refund or a free replacement cruise to anyone on board the ship. Many people believe that these people will never want to go on a cruise again. Although this is a disastrous situation for the people on the ship, they say the crew are doing there very best to keep everyone happy and fed.

Opinion:

If I was on this ship than I would be disappointed in my vacation. I'm not sure if I would ever want to go on a cruise again, I feel like it would be difficult to get back on the ship. I think that it is not the end of the world for the passengers. Apparently the crew are working very hard to keep them safe and that is absolutely the most important thing. There trying to make the passengers happy. This is also a huge toll on the cruise line. This would be a huge expense and apparently they have cancelled one more cruise due to go out immediately after this one. That would cause them to lose a lot of profit.

So long 2010, hello 2012

Recap:

This article covered the mid term election yesterday and who may run to be head of the republican party. It discusses who the prime candidates to lead the republican party are, they most likely are Sarah Palin who was the vice presidential candidate in the 2008 election, Mike Huckabee who ran against John Mccain for leader of the party in 2008, others include former governor Mitt Romney, and current governor Haley Barbour. They all have been campaigning for the party over the last few weeks which brings people to suspect that they all may want to run for president in 2012. It also discusses when they will announce if they would like to be head of the Republican party and how soon will they start there campaign. Many people believe that the lesser known people will start their campaign virtually right away while the better known politicians will wait for a while before announcing.

Opinion:

This was an interesting article, I'm surprised at how many people may want to run for the Republicans, I think we will see lots of people announce their campaign for the 2012 presidency. I also think that whoever becomes the candidate for the republican party has a good shot at making it into the white house, because after yesterdays mid-term it shows that the US is ready for change. Whoever leads the democrats may just be the change they need.

Top Democrats stump for candidates as crucial election looms

Recap:

This article was about how the democrats are making a last push so that they can try to hold control of the senate. President Obama is off the campaign trail however many of the top democrats are still out making speeches and trying to convince voters. Those still on the campaign trail are Vice President Joe Biden, First lady Michelle Obama and former president Bill Clinton. Many people believe that the democrats will lose control of the majority of the seats. Others like Dick Durbin believe they will keep their majority. Many people have said that they will vote for anyone but Obama. Obama believes that they will keep their majority, he said at a few rallies that the only way to help working class Americans is to keep the democrats in power. The mid-term election is tomorrow , Tuesday November 2nd. The democrats are at risk of losing seats in both chambers and potentially there house majority.

Opinion:

I think tomorrows election will be fantastic because no one really knows who's going to come out on top. I personally think that the Democrats will lose their majority. I believe this because of polls that people have taken on CNN.com and also because people have openly said that they don't agree with Obamas policies and what he has done in the past two years. One thing is for sure, tomorrow will be very interesting and I'm very excited about it.
