In the ongoing war on terrorism the Rocky Mountain News reported a very interesting story. Five Algerians have been held in Guantanamo bay for seven years after the Bosnian Government requested that the US arrest them after they were found plotting to plant a bomb in the US embassy in October 2001. They served a sort sentence and were released a year later. Then six months later they were picked up in Afghanistan on their way to fight US forces. This is a big issue because many people want US prisoners released and a study shows that most of them go back and fight the US. Should the prisoners be released from Guantanamo Bay?

As the holiday seasons are coming around how many of us are going to be flying somewhere to see family. In the Rocky Mountain News they report that the once greedy airlines are lowering their prices for the holiday travelers. What does this say? It might be one of the good things coming out of the struggling economy. With the lower fuel prices the airlines are looking to regain the profits of what they lost over the high fuel priced summer. If the airlines are lowering their prices, more people will book with them thus bringing in money. It affects us all because United, Frontier, and Southwest airlines all have major hubs in Denver, and the more money they make the more money they can put into making DIA a nicer airport. But do you think with people losing their jobs and not traveling, will the good news of the low airfare stay this way for long?

In a very interesting article by The Rocky Mountain News a man stole over 21,000$ worth of wine bottles. The man would wear a neck brace go into stores and take wine bottles and somehow Velcro them into the brace and walk out of the store. The crime accrued in many stores across Denver. But it really makes you think, out of all the crimes to get money, stealing wine is one of them? This is happening more and more everywhere around the world, and what can we to do stop it? Education may be answer; most criminals have very little education. If we do a better job educating people, will the crime rate go down?

In It’s a Blogger: Dashboard New Day by the 2 Cents Worth blog what matters is racial change because Barrack Obama is the first African-American president of America. Only forty years ago this man wouldn’t be able to ride the same buses, drink out of the same drinking fountains, and go to school with white people is now the president of America. This moment is the marking of a new era were anybody, no matter what color their skin is, can do any job they wish. This also shows how we have changed, a black man is now one of the most important men in the world, and how he has rose above the racism and won the election. How do you think a black president will affect you and the world?

In The Weight Station by the Nata Village blog what matters is health because the parents are caring enough to go and weight their children so they can get food. In the village the parents have a choice whether they can go and weigh their children so the government can send them the proper amount of food. If they don’t do this the government wont send them the food and most of these families cant provide food for their children. It is the duty of all parents in all parts of the world to protect and take care off their kids. If it weren’t for our parents we would be nothing. If you could ensure your children’s health and future, wouldn’t you do it?

In the blog CSM Going Online by 2 Cents Worth what matters is change. Ever since the Internet took over our way of life it’s been the focus of many people. In many parts of the world magazine and newspapers don’t appear, in its place is the Internet. Many news companies have been making themselves more easily accessible by the Internet, which changes the way the company is run. Many more people get laid off because there is no more need for their job. For instance many of the people that would be in charge of getting the editors words into the daily paper/magazine are now out of the job. It probably has no real noticeable affect on your life but the change is there. I am affected by it because now I can access a ton more info online and also saving paper, which is another reason for the companies going online. So when a news company stops printing and goes online, is it good or bad?

In President Lt. Gen. Seretse Khama Ian Khama Visits Nata Kgotla by the

Nata Village blog what matters is teaching kids about drugs and alcohol

because it can ruin young people. In Africa young people are probably not

educated and have a lot of time to waste. This is when drugs and alcohol

become an issue. This isn’t just an issue in Africa but all over the world. At

one time in your life your life you will have a choice whether or not to do

drugs or drink alcohol. I would rather keep myself away from addiction and

stay healthy. This is possible for all people all over the world thanks to the

proper education about it. If you had the choice whether do harm yourself

and so something illegal would you do it or not?
