Bring Home the Bacon Or Nah

1. Eating stuff like hot dogs, bacon and other red meats of that sort is called to be the cause and put you at high risk of colon cancer.
2. People feel as though nobody should have the absolute fear that they cant consume red meat at all. They just not eat as much because it really isn't healthy for you. It is not as bad as smoking or drinking but its still dangerous like doing the two.
3.Like said in the last question, they don't want people to feel as though they cant eat red meats at all they just need to take it easy and not eat too much.
4. Its good to take it easy but do not play with anybody and their food!!
5.It makes sense, be cautious of how much you consume but don't play with nobody and just try to run them crazy with the annoying reminders.
6. I don't eat a lot of it. Maybe once a week, twice or three times a month at the most. I know what to do and what not to do so I'm going to stick with what I'm doing and how i eat my food.

1. The first possible reason of the fire is the overheating of a shredder and the second reason is the burn pile. The additional announcement and development in the story is about the Boyle Residence and everything that is going on with them. First off, they are tremendously lucky because they were only a few yards away from the fire and out of the 16 houses on their street 10 were destroyed and theirs wasn't one. The estimated amount for the damages so far are around hundreds of millions of dollars. Also they are hoping for assistance from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to shoulder the cost.

2. Tehy like the idea of digital textbooks but the problem of it is flipping back and forth from one pafe to the next. Also they could just buy a textbook if they would like but everyone can not afford that either so there is another problem ahead of them . Robertson adn his family were the ones who felt as thouh just taking out $75 dollars for a textbook would be eassier for himself but he also realized everyine can not just whip out tghat amount like it is nothing. Melissa Prepster feels nothing is wrong with th e digitsla textbook because shr quicly open a video or go to her textbooks and be on that page in a snap. Eanes school district is way different than other schools because they actually allow the spendimng of tablets for teachers and students. As for our AISD Diserict it will be a while until we actually get tablets for students and teachers. To be honest at this rate the distribution og tablets wont happen for another 5 years or so ( yeah wait until i graduate).

3. Justin Trudeau was elected as prime Minister in Canada. Which means taht in the near futre Canada is in for some huge changes. Also the whole relationship between US and Canada are to change since both Presidents are fairly close.

4. At Eastside Memorial Alan Guckian is up for a Grammy. The award is for being a Local Inspiration Musician and he was nominated by SaulPAul. If he won the prize he stated that he would take his studetns out for pizza anfd not cheap to Mr. Gatti's.

2) The Main Courtyard is used for Color Guard and you need to go see Ms. Benda Lee in Rm. 142 on Wednesday Sept. 18, 3 pm.

3) Jill O' Connor steals a baby macaw and trades it for a 2000 Mercury Cougar.

1. The "little known" perk is that Tom Donovan gets two free tickets for one weekend and a free parking spot that is originally $1,100. So Mr. Zimmerman is upset about the whole idea because of all the expenses and other stuff they have o pay for and the this man gets an $800 expense for free instead. He feels as though it is not fair and it entirely needs to come to an end with no if, and, or buts about it. Ann Kitchen and Ora Houston see nothing wrong with the tickets so they use theirs with no problems and they feel as though it shouldn't be anything wrong with giving anyone that perk regardless of what others may feel or think. I myself do not see anything wrong with the perk, a little helping hand is always a good thing especially to someone that could really and truly use it.

2. The State of Oklahoma is finding it hard to do the death penalty execution because the supply of drugs and needed material for the prisoners. In both Texas and Virginia they are having this problem but they have decided to trade the drugs for lethal injections. Also in Ohio and Nebraska they have decided to buy a drug that is no longer legal in the United States nor Overseas and it is only mentioned by the Federal food and drug Administration.

3. Prime Minister Benjamin has barred his ministers from visiting an Old City Holy cite and told the police to stop any members from parliament of going there. He feels as though the only people that go there would be terrorists and rioters to capitalize their demands and will. Muhanad Halabi is a law student at Al Quds University that was shot to death after stabbing two Orthodox men and a wife with her child.

4. The winner of the Noble Prize is Svetlana Alexievich and she is known for her deep reseach on Russian soldiers in World War II. It is also rare that she won the Noble Prize because of her age, she is a much older woman than probably most of the others that entered in for the win. So of course others are going to be shocked about her win, if i was there i would most definitely be shocked as well.

5.Professor Emeritus Daniel has decided career wise not to continue teaching Introductory Microeconomics anymore.

As I’m sitting outside I can hear the birds chirping. Most likely sitting in the trees minding their business and hanging with the family. Also the flow of the wind is probably feeling good going in and out of their feathers. The breeze is nice and relaxing. So its all-good and comfy type of weather that everybody enjoys. As im constantly looking around I notice that I can see my counselor n her office (no stalker status). Then I look to my left and I see thick, rough, rocky poles that are under the building in front of the school. Across the street I see a few houses and other semi apartment buildings. It would be pretty weird living across the street from the school but also cool because its not a far distance home. I could easily go home and get food from home instead of staying at Mac and eating here. Then all around me I see dry grass and leaves on the ground. The grass has no hope of being pretty and green anytime soon. It has a long way to go before that happens again so good luck with that. Obviously people have no respect or no home training because it is all sorts of receipt and trash all over the ground and in the grass and in the bushes just there to mess up the growing cycle of it all. The air might be beautiful but the sun is very evil. It is hotter than Mexican salsa with the sun blazing like that. Amen for the semi cloudy sky blocking some of the sun from burning my skin to match this keyboard. Then in front of me this guy pulls up in his car with his “Trap Music” banging and he’s feeling like he is just to cool for school to have any worries.  Then he gets out of the car and the obvious he is a “sager” his pants are low and you can see his underwear so not attractive like at all. I do not see how anyone finds that to be cute, nobody wants to see anyone else’s underwear all day. While I am to worried and upset about his pants I feel stuff crawling on my legs and it is about five or six ants on my legs. I thought my life was over my soul literally left  my body.

I went to Ms.Adamson's class and interviewed a new student to McCallum. She went to a school in Florida and she says that Mac is way more laid back. Regarding rules and dresscodes, stuff in that area, which she enjoys. She didn't have much to say because she said it was sort of awkward but did not mind the idea of getting a break from doing work.

1. The central message around the whole thing is basically about the "open wounds" in the world being torn by hatred, greed, poverty and pollution. This what everybody has been talking about but it was never hugely addressed in a way that is really out there and greatky noticed. So with the pope being there hopefully somethung starts to change. The pope was greatly invited by the United States Congress in Washington with Joe Biden, McConnell, Kevin McCarthy, Joe Boehner, and Nancy Polsi.

2. The broad difference is whether or not the racial slurs triggered the incidents. Mike Motheral was fustrated about the fact that the player and coach of the other team was not present for the meeting. In the end the players should more than likely be able to return to the school without any problems.

3. More than five dozen parents and students stood thier grounds outside of Maplewood Elemaenary to bring back a forner sixth grade teacher that had been fired. This firing of the teacher was caused becase they needed to adjust and level down on the amount of students in classes. This messes up a lot if the kids because they were just beginning to adjust to the change and then now they have to adjust once agaiin to another source of change. Bryker Woods Elementary did the same protesting and endedup eith the same resukts where a fifith grade teacher is being removed for finacial and spacing reasons.

4. Senator John Whimire asked the attirney which school district law will ban firearms from being carried in parking lots, sidewalks and other district properties. The law about carrying fireams are legal as long as you have your papers and stuff. So it might be legal and acceptable to carry them as long as you are able to shiw them your papers that you legally have one. Attorney General has 180 days to issue a nonbinding legal opiom about the whole sistautaio nto Whitmire.

5. The most interesting story that caught me was about the firearms. The story basically talks about how on school district properties it is illegal to carry firearms. Although is very much legal to carry firearms as long as you have your papers on you to show. So as long as you have your papers you should be alright i honestly do not see anything wrong with carrying a firearm as long as you are not causing harm to anyone

Humans Of McCallum

When I was 7 years old i went to my friend's birthday party and it was a pool party. Sounds fun right? No I couldn't swim but i didn't want anybody to know that so i was going to just play if off and say i just didm't feel like getting the water. Yeah it worked for a while then my friend's brother, who was suoer cute, was throwing people in the pool. Oh my goodness he came to me and grabbed me by my waist i thought i was going to die. I was scremig super loud and he was whoa! chill out i was just playing and he walked away. I was so glad he walked away but just my luck he came back and this time he really threw me in t he pool. I was really screming loud this time i thought my life was over with and my mom was nowhere around me so she jad no clue what was going on. Then she ame running outof the kitchen seeing what was goign on. When she saw it was me she was screaming as well and was like "Oh My No!! Somebody help her she can't swim!!". When she said that i was super embarassed i didn't want anybody to know that about me even though it was obvious since i was screaming bloody murder!

1B. Donald Trump was part of it all because of all the questions asked from a current meeting so they were going over them and Graham felt some sort of way about it so he brought them up. With all of the disagreements and of course a few agreements it allowed confrontation but in a good way sort of that required conversation and for them to put their answers all on the table.

2. The CIA director went to UT to get some information about one of the most sought after documents in Washington. The release of documents about the world's greatest democracy and does not keep secrecy was actually a much larger interest than the documents from Washington. They are part of the CIA so they can get any type of information that they want about anything or anybody. A PDB stands for President's Daily Briefs and it is a important document because it includes every piece of detail from the utmost crucial information you could ever find.

3.The Hungarian security made a new law where it is illegal to cross the country without permission so they are stuck there to suffer. They are trying to find a new route out so they be free from the harm that's there. So they tried to use the the crossing of Serbia into Croatia but what they did not realize is that the crossing is only temporary. Meaning by the time they tried to cross it is most likely going to be blocked off so that is not such a good idea.

4. The 14 year old was arrested for bringing a home made clock to school that resembled a bomb and it prompted the allegations of anti-Islam profiling. The school officials explained how the boy meant no alarm to the others at school and also explained how he invents his own stuff so it was nothing to harm anyone. Once everyone had a clear understanding of what was going on, President Obama and plenty of others turned to his side and agreed with what he was doing and said other kids should start doing stuff like he does.

Essay:
1. When i first saw this story i was on twitter but i just scrolled right passed it but I kept on hearing about it but continued to ignore it until now. If what he did and invented is apart of his culture then so be it. He should be allowed to do what he wants without any problems and if anyone sees different then they can kick rocks and move on. Like what is wrong with doing something he enjoys? Exactly absolutely nothing so they need to quit and do something with themselves.

Current Event Quiz 1
1.The University Of Texas is under fire because they were part of a high profile crime hate in Austin. The reason for no further explanation is because of "Student Confidential Policy" they can not spread any personal information. Obviously they did not know of any of this or else they would not have gotten hired. No high paid respected business wants any source of bad information running through causimg them to lose people.

2.
