A small charter air plane hits two light standards just before crashing on the roadway. Luckily no car vehicles were hit from the accident. This accident happened in Richmond, B.C. near Vancouver. Unfortunately when the plane crashed, nine injuries occurred and all nine passenger were rushed too Richmond Hospital.

When I read this article, I was thinking how careless the pilot must have been. The pilot duties of an aircraft is to make sure the reach their destination and that all passengers are save and home. A pilot is ultimately responsible for its operation and safety during the flight. I hope this pilot is fired. He should be more aware of the light standards and avoid colliding into them. Hopefully the airline does not get in trouble for hiring a careless employee.

Baby Arza Karaduman was pulled alive from the building in Ercis. Rescuer Kadir Direk was chosen to help save the baby since he was the smallest member of his crew. Kadir Direk was successful of rescuing Arza and her mother. Unfortunately, 432 people died from this earthqauke and 1,300 people are injured.

When I read this story, I was in shock. It was very sad and devastated. I realized how fortuante I am to live in such a great society. I realize how fortuante that I have a great family. Reading this article should make you feel how fortunate you are. It also should tell you, dont take things for granted. I am very happy for this young born but very sad for turkey. Losing 432 man is awful and also seeing your community destroyed is not pleasant either.

100 year old man runs marathon ?

100 year old Fauja Singh, nickname "The Turbaned Tornado" ran a marathon which was 42.2 Kilometers. Fauja singh had told the Guinness World Records that he was going to break the record for the oldest man to run a marathon. Guinness World Records can't receive proof that Fauja is 100 years old. Fauja has to give Guinness World Records a birth certificate from 1911. Fauja has been running apparently since hes been 89 years old. If Fauja can give Guinness World Records his birth certificate and it shows that hes born in 1911, he will receive 5 awards for breaking 5 Guinness World Records.

I believe Fauja Singh shouldn't not be declared the oldest marathoner in the world. If Fauja is having trouble giving his birth certificate, than there must be a problem. If he keeps on waiting, he will probably make a fake birth certificate. If Fauja is 80 years old than he should keep up the great work. Running at a old age is very difficult and its a great accomplishment for Fauja to achieve that goal.

Blackberry future revolves around there new generation, BBX. The new software platform was unveiled at the Waterloo, Ont.company's annual developer conference is San Francisco.The new platform will power all of RIM’s future BlackBerry smartphones and BlackBerry PlayBook tablets and is based on the QNX software that currently powers the company’s PlayBook tablets. After blackberry had made there announcemnt on there new software, shares of "Rim rose nearly 2% on the Tornto Stock Exchange to $23.00.""The BBX platform will include BBX-OS, and will support BlackBerry cloud services and development environments for both HTML5 and native developers. BBX will also support applications developed using any of the tools available today for the BlackBerry PlayBook – including Native SDK, Adobe AIR/Flash and WebWorks/HTML5, as well as the BlackBerry Runtime for Android Apps – on future BBX-based tablets and smartphones." Also blackberry developed a brand new tools and services known as "BlackBerry Jam." This new tool is designed to make it easier for developers to create applications. Blackberry is trailing behind Apple Inc.'s IOS platform as well as google Inc's android platform in terms of number of applications. Also Rim is in second with most profitable application marketplace, being apple's app store. Blackberry has had a huge success in Black berry messange (BBM) and has more than 50 million customers who are actively using it.

I believe RIM is getting there act together. Rim was the leading device for the last 7 years and have been going down lately in the last 2 years. There biggest competitor Apple is continues hitting the stage and continually doing better. RIM's biggest hit has been Black berry messanger. Hopefully with there new software, there stocks will increase and they'll get back to the leading board with apple. I see full potential in RIM and can't wait until there device is number one again.

Ontario Election debate on health care!

The Ontario election debate took off and had a debate today . One of the questions involved health care. Each party had there time to discuss there plan about health care. Dalton McGinty who has been Ontario's MP for the last eight years had discuss his plan. Dalton says that Ontario has the shortest wait times in the Canada. He also said Canada doctors per family has grew. Apparently 1.3 million families have a doctor. Mr.McGinty had also said that Ontario has improved 18 new hospitals. Mr.McGinty believes since health care has improved that kids have excelled in school. Mr.McGinty put one billion dollars in electronic health and believes this is the way towards the future. The New Democrat Party had it spokes. Andrea Horwath who is the leader believes Ceo should lower there salaries so they can have enough money to pay for more nurses. Ms. Horwath believe that the Health care is a long term investment. She would like patience in the health care. Ms.Horwath would like to add a new program for seniors, so they can stay longer at there homes unlike retirement homes. The Progressive Conservatives also had there turn to speak. Tim Hudak represented the Progressive Conservatives and believed health care should be Ontario's number one priority investment. He believes 6.1 billion dollars should go towards health care. Mr.Hudak wants to create jobs and focus on education and health care.

I believe Mr.Hudak had a create debate. I enjoyed his statements and agree 90 percent. I believe the number one investment priority is health care. As the population increases, its smart that the manual fund for health care increases. I was not a fan of Dalton McGinty. He has been Ontario's MP for the last eight years and has done nothing but increase gst and hst and hydro bills. Why should we keep paying these high bills and were not achieving much? Dalton Mcginty didn’t promise anything , he believes that his plan which they have been using for the last eight years will help the economy. I believe Ms. Horwarth is a joke! Why should we have the same manaul fund if the population is growing. Also why should we lower CEO'S salary? People who are working hard shouldn’t deserve less. Instead of lowering a salary we should spend more money on the situation, like Mr.Hudak. If I was the legal age to vote, you would know my vote! Vote Hudak!

Taking early classes can help ?

Researchers and developers have discover that, the majority of students in University that take earlier classes , tend to have higher marks. Most University students schedule there courses later on in the day so they can party at night and sleep in. "A Psychologist at St. Lawrence University in Canton, New York found that students in later classes get more sleep but they are also more likely to abuse alcohol than those taking morning classes." The students who don't drink are not affected and more sleep is a difference. I am not surprised from this article. Students who drink lots of alcohol should have bad grades. Students should focus on school work instead of drinking because school work can bring you somewhere in life unlike partying. Hopefully these students take advantage of there school time so they can become a successful person in the real world.

Thanks, Warren

It all started on Wednesday night in London Ontario. The Philadelphia Flyers and the Detroit Red Wings had an exhibition hockey game. Wayne Simmonds , the Philadelphia forward was awarded a penalty shot which than, a banana had been thrown at him. Some fan had thrown a banana from the upper section of the arena, implying that Wayne Simmonds is an ape or monkey because of the ton of his face. This incident has turned into a major cause in the National Hockey League (NHL) and police are under investigations. I believe that the man that threw the banana is an ignorant fan and is a disgrace towards people. I can't wait till the police figure this case out and punish this fan for his behavior. I'm very happy that Wayne Simmonds scored the shootout and commented with this statement: " It was unfortunate that this incident happened. I'm above this sort of stuff. That is something that is out my control. Moving forward. This incident is something I will no longer comment on so I can just focus on playing hockey," I believe he has great sportmanship and was very respectful towards the negative sitution. I hope Wayne the best. I also cant believe this fan is bringing racism to sports.

It took detectives and officers to get some answers from the seven year old witness to figure out this case. The death of Jermaine Mec Gillespie,25 , became poignant. Friday, his daughter was asked many questions and testifying at the murder trial of her mother. The accident happened after eating breakfast at McDonald's in the car. Apparently the father was saying means words towards the mother in which the mother, " She pulled out a knife and she stabbed my daddy right here." The seven year old daughter of Jermaine , was video clip of the day he died of her thoughts and answered. The next week she declined everything she said and said nothing bad happen. The seven year old was lying to the detective. After a couple more false starts and stumbles, the girl relented. She came out and told the truth. Her father was stabbed from her mother. " She had a big, blue purse and her knife was almost sticking out and then she stabbed him. " The trail continues . I believe that this woman who knifed her husband should go to jail. I also believe that the seven year old daughter should go to another family where she can be raised and dealt with properly. This seven year old daughter probably lied because she didn't want her mother go to jail. In conclusion I believe that this woman should leave and go to jail and that this daughter find her self a new family where she wont be in any danger and learn to be honest.

Stephan J. Kinzey is a kinesiology proffesor at California State University, San Bernardino. His students referred him as an teacher with a big heart and friend who would sit and listen. Stephan's parents pointed him out as a "good christian". Stephan is 43 and is accused of being a drug-peddling outlaw biker and the president and mastermind - behind the Devils Disciples Outlaw Motorcycle gang. Stephan's family disagree with this accusation and believe hes a "great man and a wonderful proffesor". On september 1st , the local police announced that a six-months investigation had reached its conclussion. The proffesor was not home one night when authorities raided his house and discovered a pound of methamphetamine, a small arsenal of firearms, body armour, leather biking vest featuring the gang patch and other paraphernalia. Proffesor Kinzey is charged with six felones, including drug trafficking, weapons possession and participating in a crimal street gang. He is currently free on bail, a US$300,000 sum posted by his bewildered father, Hank. Majority of students and very confused and are wondering how this is possible!? I believe that Proffesor Kinzey seemed like a very intelligent man , but decided to use his knowledge in a bad way. His attidude towards other people will very good and it made him suspicious from his gang. Proffesor Kinzey probaly regretts playing the best of both worlds. Hopefully he wins his trial in court and becomes that nice and great proffesor that we hear from his students.
