In a article called Broadcasting a world of whiteness by Jon Carmanican. In the article the writer talks about how a HBO show called ''Girls'' had a lot to talk about how the main people in the show are white and the show dose not have a main person that is of color on the show. The show brighting a light  on how tv shows like Two and a half men and how i met your mother  really don't have have a person of color in a main person slot on the shows. The writer said that on the show one main person it the show had the make a rasist joke to the person that was interveiwing her . but she left the pesron said that "the joke was not ok to say at that time and place''
I think that the person that wrote this was right. The people that cast people for shows doesn't like any other  race  then white . As a teen i think that i don;t see enough of black people on t.v. its a  slim to nun chance that i will see a black person as a main person on a t.v show.

Between the ages of 13-18 teens years of ages parents should stress abstinence. Senior Sierra Blagman and Shayira at Parkway West High School on 4/13/12 Health Fair at Parkway took place, both students stressed the dislike of abortion. Abortion, by having abortions it hurts the person physically and mentally. No one listens when people say its a life lost. In 1973 abortion was legalized. The statistics say 50,000,000 unborn children lost to abortion. There are many programs to help prevent pregnancy in young women. One of these programs is Youth Empowerment Program on Broad street JFK building 

While she was presenting  Senior Shayira and she said, "the research was a success, because I got my fellow students involved and I spread the word."
She also said,"the research was a failure because I didn't get all the information I needed."


Sierra Blagman did the same topic and had the same point of view on abortion.


''Life begins when your a fetus.'' She said When a young girl gets pregnant she only thinks of one way things can become right and that is abortion. There are so many options for their baby , one is adoption, and another is you can give your baby to the hospital once its born and they will keep it for one year and take care of it but when that year is up they will give the baby to the adoption agencies. Abortion is the highest death rate riding on 14.5 million.

new heart,new life

 On February 2, 2012 A teenager got a new heart. the teens name is Courtney Montgomery had a heart condition that could end her life. The teen didn't want to get the heart transplant he mother wanted he to get it but courtney said now. The teen has had this condition since she was 8. It stop her from doing things she love like  cheerleading.Montgomery had made up her mind she was not going going to have the transplant and her heart was failing fast and the doctors can't do anything about because she didn't want to have the transplant. Another person Josh Winstead 17 years old was a football player had the same condition that courtney has but ,in 2011 he had a heart transplant he was doing well with his heart. The doctors had the two teens meet. they where hoping that john would sale courtney on doing the transplant so she could seave. The two quicky became friends and courtney had the transplant april of 2011 the two even went to prom together. 
I think that this an good story for hope because the teen was slowly dieing  and she didn't wan to have the transplant  it seemd like she was ready to die. But when she met wit another person around the same age as her and had the same condition that she had. She changed her mind and made a new friend. This bad thing that she had helped her make a new friend http://portal.achieve3000.com/article/?g=11328&c=1&sc=275&ssc=0&a=152504&returnUrl=%2Fsearch%2Fsearch_results.php%3FreturnUrl

Also the artilce statrd studies show so more boys that dont have dads in their lives its a slite chanes that they will end up in jail,in the street,or even dead


i think that the person that wrote this article  is right on all points. people that are hav'ing babies with out being married is wrong but it happens to people. so many people are having kind some with people they dont even love. To me its not wrong to have kid with the person that your in love with if your not in love with them you should save yourself for the one that your married.

the main idea of the story is that we treat criminal that go to jail like nothing. also we don't see are selves as criminal because we don't get put in jail for it. this article also states that Michell Alexander when to different places  and said that she was a criminal. she said that '' they looked at me in a different  after i said that i was a criminal. In the article her evidence that we are all criminal by saying that'' did you ever smoke pot? did you ever underage drink? did you ever speed on the free way.'' what she is trying to say is if you ever did any of this stuff you are breaking the law. 


she also saying that we should not put people in ail that steal candy from the corner store or for j-walking.  i think she is right we should not put people in jail that do small things. we should be putting people away  for big things like killing other people or jumping people for  no reason at all.

this article is about how models and famous people get their photos changed and altered to make  them look better and skinnyer then what they really look like.the article states that form 1 to 5 on a scale of how much they change their photo is 5 because they have to look perfect to sale thing they promote this is  would help them to more press and to put them on more of the magizes. the article also state that the photo that the modals and famous people put out can hut the teen that look up to them. the photo can make teen not be confident with their self so it would make them change the they look . 
i think the photo shouldn't be that changed. the models should have self-repect that they would not change their image. the photos should be orignal and not changed. the article said from 1 to 5 the photos are changed all the 100% of the time . i think that is so sad. love your photo with all your heart.
