           Due to Obamas handling of libya's crisis there are a ton of criticism being spouted about giving him bad publicity. He replies to these by saying the military mission was just to prevent a "humanitarian crisis". Which meant to prevent the killings of civilians by Gadhafis army as well as the underlying reason, to remove gadhafi from power in libya.

Discussion reflection

I gained a lot of insight with all the looking into education we did. It made me gain a persepctive into the educational world and I even got my moms perspective on the reforms suggested. I had thought merit pay was a good idea till I learned more about how some teachers find ways to cheat. Then that idea was out the window. I think parent involvment is needed at some level at least. The actual discussion could've been better I think we all didn't really involve ourselves too much as a group. I think next time we can do better.

By  the CNN Wire Staff. March 3rd 2011


Deputies shot 17 year old christopher earl glass as they raced in a chase after him for abducting his 5 month old son from whoever was taking care of him. Police chasing after them were left helpless as they saw christopher make a stabbing motion towards the baby and when he crashed a little later their fears confirmed. The baby died and the deputies shot the father inthe home he broke into trying to escape. Its sad how people can actually hurt a helpless baby and have no remorse. Especially a father to a son.
