Long Response:

Sophomore at Hays High school, Brynn Aylor was killed in a car accident on Wednesday. As she traveled down Jack C. Hays Trail she lost control when a pickup passed her in a no pick up zone and the collided with another car. I think new drivers should get simulations of what to do when others drive recklessly or are out of control. I do have plans to start drivers ed. soon when I have time off from school. I do think they should have controls in their car that keep them from using electronic devices because they are more prone to accidents. I do think 15 and 16 year olds should be allowed to drive because it is a good time to practice before going off to college and its another milestone that should be completed during the teenage years.

Free Write

Eyes, a muted green covered by shadows of dusty golden brown that inset deep into the head. The edges delicately almond shaped are engulfed in eyelashes which line the border. From the eyes the nose extends and ends quickly as it curves out. Freckles dot the surface and come and go as the seasons change. Hair, bend into long, frizzy waves with small curls shaping the face. Brown thick locks immerse the top of the head with small sections of golden highlights that reflect the sun. Neck short like the rest extends towards a delicate collarbone ending up at broad wide shoulders. On the right shoulder 3 moles dot there way to the neck with one in the center. Skin, pale like ivory and with weird tan lines marking the outlines of athletic clothing. A warm undertone one from decents of the fathers side. Arms, short and little like the wingspan of a hummingbird make it hard to reach tall areas but easy to reach small. From the shoulder areas of freckles run down until the finger tips. At the nails chipped lilac and pink nail polish wear away, creating cracks like shattered glass. Stomach, a fit build of a soccer player with a dot above the hole that caves in. Back delicate, with an outline of the spin curves to create a silhouette.  With a single brown sphere in the lower area of my back that has been cleanly put into the indent of the spin is placed next to another faded freckle. The legs, muscular, short and strong. Made for a runner and a player, they can handle the extreme. Scared, bruised, beat, and cut they with hold and don't stop. On the right knee a scar is left one that looks like a spider long thick legs. Above is another scar, one that is similar but not as severe lays directly above and feels like a tough, rigid plain. Hips, small and problematic create problems with athletic performance while bringing pain to the structure. The ankles, gentle and strong holding up the rest of the legs and hips. Feet, veiny and wide with petite toes that line the top edge. Lips are red flushed with the essence of a rose. A plump lip is covered with imperfections and scars along the outside perimeters but are still as beautiful as if it were perfect.  Cheeks, rosy and red, never seem to calm down. This is my body. I am beautiful.

Long Response: 

I do not think President Obama ordered any survelince on Donald Trump because the whole situation is based of Trump's allies in which they could be making up some total bull crap. Yes he should apologize to Obama especially since Trump has said some other things about him. Even if Trump is proven wrong he is not going to apologize because he needs to protect his ego. The result if Trump refuses is mass media coverage over it and it would look horrible for him. Due to his connections to Russia and his close relationship with Putin is one of the reasons why the election is being investigated. The punishment should be he should be kicked out of office and sentenced to prison because tampering with the election process is illegal and on such a big scale makes it a lot worse. I don't trust Trump. I do not trust the GOP because they let him get this far and he's said some horrible things and tried to pass some horrible bills.

Front Pages of the World

What is your favorite newspaper front page? Why? 
My favorite front page was Lidove Noviny because there was a color scheme and I like how a lot of the color took up the page and still made the paper look neat. 

What is your favorite headline from that newspaper? Why are you interested in it? 
I could not read the headlines they were in a different language. 

How many stories are on the front page of your favorite? 
Seven 

What do you notice that all newspaper front pages have in common? Look at design, size of photos, size of story text, etc.
All newspapers have a name, a headline, a couple of pictures, and eyeliner, and a very neat look. I can also see that stories start but never finish on the same page as the front cover. 

What are things that vary (or are different) on the front pages of different newspapers? Look at design, size of photos, size of headlines, etc. 
Things that are different include font, colors, and sizes of pictures and the amount of space they take up.

5. Which of the 5 things to do this weekend would you like to go to: Page D2 "The Long Weekend five things to do"

Long Response:
The basic idea of school choice is that families must compete on a free market and choose which schools their children would like to go to. Douglas Harris does not like school choice and thinks it is not fit for education. Brendan Steinhouser's likes school choice because he believes in free market and is a conservative. I did attend a private preschool but I switched to public school. For me private school and public school were very similar but private school was much smaller. My parents do not believe in school choice so if I wanted to go to a private school they would pay for  it but if I didn't want to then they wouldn't. I don't find any specific interest in a private school because if I did I would not be at Bowie. I think some advantages of going to a private school is maybe nicer materials and facilities as well as more money in general. I think some disadvantages of going to a private school is that it is more secluded and not monitored by the state.
