This image of jane goodall always brings up interesting feelings for me. When I was much younger, I was told that she was killed in a very brutal way, but later on in life I found out that she is still alive and well. That always makes me happy, especially all of the amazing research she has helped with. What an amazing woman! I also think that this photo was meant to evoke an understanding and love between the chimpanzee and jane. To show how much she deeply cares for these animals. Which touches my heart. = )

Oh the wonderful American dream, beautiful straight, white teeth. The wonderful ads about fluoride toothpaste being the best of the market. The fact is is that millions and millions of people are using fluoride toothpaste, every night and every morning. Little do they know, that fluoride is actually poisonous! Yes we Have all read the side warning on tube, but I do not think anybody truly knows just how poisonous it truly is. Many people do not know that there are quite a few horror stories of children swallowing toothpaste and becoming terribly ill. It really is frustrating to me that this is allowed, but what is even worse it that there is fluoride in our water and there have not been any studies done to see how much is in our tap water. My guess is that they have no idea if we are slowly being poisoned. This might seem a little intense, but I believe we should educate ourselves and be healthy and strong minded. So I believe that this whole American dream we see day to day with the ads for using toothpaste that keeps our teeth white is extremely harmful to us. We can have clean, nice, white teeth with out fluoride. Don't get me wrong white teeth are amazing and I want my smile to reflect the sunlight, believe me, but please find a different way!!!

Strong vs. Weak "News"

http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/asiapcf/09/13/india.boy.thrown.train/index.html

This article is about a boy being thrown off a moving train, by a guard who was collecting money as bribe money. Don't get me wrong there is most definitely a soft spot in my heart for this young boy and the problems with corrupt government in India is quite terrible, but how many stories a day are there everyday about someone dying, being eaten or being crushed by a bus? Way to many, I just do not understand why our country has to focus on the negative like it is all that is out there. News was created to keep us warned if anything really horrible was happening. For example a serial killer is going around door to door in a certain neighborhood and killing everyone, so stay in your house or a natural disaster.. So to conclude that I believe we should have more positive news!

Ok so this article is about Guy Labliberte, the man behind the wonderful Cirque du Soleil, going to space to raise global awareness of water conservation and other issues. The main reason this is all happening is because this man is passionate about everyone having clean drinkable water. The awareness is not only coming from Guy Labliberte, it is also coming from earth, where a large show is going to be performed throughout fourteen cities in the world.

I think that this article is so wonderful and positive. I think that it is really important to raise awareness over this matter because it seems we so easily forget that certain countries still do not have clean drinkable water. It is sad and we do forget because we live fast busy lives. That is just how it is. So it is refreshing to hear of people raising more awareness, everyone is trying hard and I hope to hear more articles like this on Fox News or CNN. Would that be the day. The News is one of the most powerful ways to get people to listen and it is being jaded by everything negative, I say we use it to become a powerful nation together and fix all the terrible injustices!
