Dozens killed as 2 blasts rock Algerian capital

This current event talks about in Algeria there waz two car bombs . The first one targeted united states officers adn staff members of the united states wich killed 10 people adn the second blast killed 45 people in the capital of algeria. this all happend on tuesday. A public officer stated that the bombs went off ten minutes apart. The explosion went off around 9:30 AM in a street where the U.N development program is located . In my opinon this makes me nevrvous becuase i have a cousin that is in the army and on december 24 2007 he is going to be send away to iraq and seeing this makes me fear foe his life. how one day he could be walking down the street and a bomb goes off.

An African school succeeds against the odds

There are 1,531 students, six classrooms, no running water and no light bulbs. They all sit outside with no chairs and under the hot sun. They all attened school without shoes , also barley with piceses of clothes. One in two African children don't finish primary school, and millions don't go at all. Those who do often end up in crowded schools with untrained teachers. Most of them are embrassesd becuase they have never even read a book adn barely speak english. iIn my opinin i think itz sad seeing kids living this way in africa and it makes me appreciate things more becuase iam here in school in air conditionar and high tecnology and the schools provide us with food .The food aint that yummy but its better than nothing. These kids go home without shoes and skinny becusea they dont have the vitimans they need and thier parents work thier butts out to be in the same place. i wish the world could help them have a a better education at least.

Finish this sentence: I was most disappointed when... describe in detail a time when you were most disappointed. What happened? What caused the events?


I was most disappointed when ..... i raned away from home and i was sitting in the bushes near a canal and my phone was non- stop ringing . It was my mom calling and i did not pick up but she left me a voice mail that made feel like shit and not even show my face to my family. The voicemail was her crying and talking to me in spanish that to please return home and that she loved me no matter what. i brusted out into tears and i felt so stupid and i did not have the balls to call back her leave her a messages. Until she left me a message saying that she was going to call the police becuase she was worry sick. i finally called and told her where i was at . That whole weekend my mom felt like the worst mom ever adn i felt like the worst duaghter. i couldnt face my mom in the eye
