Michael Jackson disease-becomes epidemic

The iconic Michael Jackson has left more to the world than the 25th anniversary edition of the Thriller DVD. In a recent announcement Jackson’s publicist brought the faded star into the eyes the public again. She explained that Jackson was in the process of becoming a “lecturer” to help the mainstream society accept the “horrible fate” that he and many other celebrities have suffered after “necessary” plastic surgeries. Jackson finally lost his much operated on shnose last June at a red carpet event last June. Since then many of Jackson’s celebrity friends have suffered the same fate. Jessica Simpson and Lindsay Lohan are among some of the victims of poor plastic surgery.

Construction

Construction, eight grade lost Mrs.Emerick's room
The bangs and the bumps don't look like their ending they are ending soon
In the science lab, concrete shakes
I wonder how long "construction" takes

Heat comes in patches though the ceiling
The open ceilings are quite reveling
Lights and wire hang from wires
The hallways smell like burning tires
Locker doors fall of sporadically
Construction, has me.

Save the Earth in Your Spare Time

Save the Earth in Your Spare Time
By
Molly Bado


With the recent out cry against America’s wasteful ways, caring for your planet and energy conservation has come back in style. Experts as well as the general populous have conflicting opinions about the phenomena call global warming. Weather it exists or not, the alternative being regional weather patterns changing, many a concerned citizen are jumping on the green bandwagon. But if you believe as I do that that Earth’s resources are being stretched to the breaking point, and something has to be done for the welfare of our planet. That raises the question; just what can I do, being a kid and all, to help the environment?
One good way to conserve energy is to turn off your computer. By completely shutting down your computer at night you save about 90$ a year. As well as having a roll in the conservation effort. The Department of Energy suggests that you shut your system down, if you don’t plan on using it in the next two hours. Monitors should be shut down after twenty minutes of inactivity.
You could also wash the laundry in cold water! Most machines have this setting, and most loads don’t need hot water. 90% of the energy used by washing machines goes into heating, when you don’t really need it.
Shopping online is a great idea, especially in the holiday season. Many sales are going on right now, including free shipping. Buying online eliminates the need for paper. ese online stores generally bigger selections of merchandise so you don’t have to drive around to find what you need. Instead of driving from store to store to get the best price you can just visit another website. Shopping online saves gas, money , time and conserves our precious fossil fuels.
When you’re printing out that article that is due tomorrow, why not print it green? By clicking print, going into proprieties and selecting finish, then checking the “Print on both sides” icon, you can save a tree! The U.S alone wastes about 27 pounds of paper per person each year! Save your money, and your landfill, print on both sides.
Going green or greener is realizing that you are not the only person in this world. These tips really make a difference. They also are not life altering actions. We really need a generation or two of environmentally conscience people, for the sake of the lifestyles we embody now.

Insomnia

Crying to a dark ceiling
The sound becomes an animal keening
Nothing can ever equal heartbreak like this
I ball the anguish into a fist

Anger is what I'll turn the utter hopelessness into
Anger is how I'll get through
Until the weight can be lifted again
Using that shield I will pretend

That I will not break down
Every time I remember you
Dates, and memories that mattered
Before the vein where the I.V rested, shattered
He bleeds in the hospital unknowing and unfeeling

God only gives us what we can handle
I only wish I could take up that mantel
Because I miss him so much every single day
More than anything I can put in words could convey
I don't think my family could ever handle this
Three months later and still reeling form deaths kiss.

Understanding the presidential

Understanding the presidential Election
By MOLLY

The 2008 presidential election is undoubtedly one of the most important and interesting events of our times. Given that, and the coverage the media has been providing it’s easy to become confused. So, just what do you need to know?
Obviously, what are the facts? If you are uniformed, you look not only stupid but are not taking full advantage of you rights as an American citizen. What’s taking place that makes this election so unique? Well, way back in the democratic primaries we had two minority candidates face off, Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton. Now Barack eventually won, but not by an enormously large margin. That’s really cool because Obama is black, and not too long ago this country was home to many debates about race and prejudice.. Obama has also surprised many of Hilary Clinton supporters and most media by choosing Delaware senator, Joe Biden. The Republicans, a party that prides themselves on consistency and tradition, has even made ground breaking movements of their own. For example, they have nominated a vice presidential nominee with an apparent lack of experience, and the first woman ever to be nominated for the job. This year the Republicans have selected the oldest presidential nominee John McCain.
Lastly, what’s really important in any election is the issues. In this election both presidential candidates have a variety of concerns to address, like universal heath care, education reform, and the war in Iraq. Now John McCain and Sarah Palin (the Republican vice presidential and president nominees) belong to the same political party as our President George W. Bush. That means they agree with our president on many issues like “staying the course in Iraq” and the current solution our president has provided to the subprime mortgage crisis, and Palin is pro-life, just like our current president. Now, this may seem unimportant but John McCain’s age may be a determining factor in who is appointed to the Supreme Court. Republicans support an education plan that is called No Child Left Behind, a mandatory, school district funded program that has put much emphasis on standardized tests. Democrats, like Barrack Obama, and his running mate Joe Biden completely and strongly disagree with Republicans on every point I have mentioned. Democrats believe we shouldn’t have gone on what they call a “misguided, misrepresented, quest for oil “and think we should leave Iraq in slow measures. The Democrats are appalled at the trillion dollar bailout of major banks, like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Most Democrats are strong advocates of the woman’s right to choose, especially in cases of incest and rape. Democrats also believe that the No Child Left Behind educational plan was destined to fail because it was never properly funded.
Less confused? I hope so, but here’s a quick overview: this election has been an exciting and amazing event, and a couple really important things have happened. One, the first black man to ever make it past the primaries is running as the democrat’s presidential nominee alongside Joe Biden. Opposing Obama and Biden , John McCain and Sarah Palin are the republican nominees. Republicans believe in the war in Iraq, the No Child Left Behind education legislature, and other conservative points. Democrats will oppose all of these points.
