      Wicked is now the longest Broadway show ever to play on Broadway. It tells how the Christmas is gonna be a little more green. Elphaba and Glinda brought their play back to the Windy City. This is amazing. Wicked is becoming a traditional Chicago play. It is just like A Christmas Carol.

Harry Potter beat Disney's Rapunzel, but one by a hair

      I like this article because it is totally WRONG!!!! Harry Potter should not be the number one movie.

It says Harry Potter is the number one movie because it has made more money, but it is wrong!!!

CRIME L.A.

          This talks about how people in L.A. can be notified on the crimes in their city or neighbor hood.

      This article just talked about how a Canadian changed from serious acting to comedy. He had been in movies since the 1950's. It didn't say much about it. It was a good article though. I thought it was great. It said the movies that changed his carrer were 'Airplane' and 'Naked Gun' .

       It says that 'Up' should not of won best picture. It should have been 'Toy Story 3'. I agree. 'Up' was boring. 'Toy Story 3' was much better in every way. It should have won best picture. I liked 'Up' sort of. It was an okay movie, but 'Toy Story 3' was better.

        I like this story because it is a big police chase. The police found more than 30 tons of marijuana.

Iran dismisses Wikileaks release

       Iran's president has dismissed as propaganda the leaking of US cables detailing Arab calls for Washington to destroy Iran's nuclear facilities. The release by the Wikileaks website of thousands of extracts from US diplomatic messages was simply warfare against Iran.The release would not affect Iran's relationships with other countries. The release was reckless and put the lives of diplomats at risk. It talks a lot about how Obama is trying to make sure similar leaks don't happen again.

        The murdered wife of killer Colin Howell called to her eldest son as her husband gassed her.

      "Who am I?" is a fun game. Everyone can play it. It is a fun game you can play anytime.You can win really cool prizes. It also helps you to get to know you classmates and teachers better. It is a helpful way to find out facts.
      It is an awesome game. It is fun for the publisher too. The person who makes it gets to pick a student or a teacher and find things out about them. All you do is get a sheet of paper and get them to fill it out. It is not hard at all.
       It is a fun party game too. You can have bucket loads of fun with it. It is a mystery. Most of the time you get candy for winning. It is really good candy too. It is just a fun little game. It is very simple. It is very very fun.

I know that some people are lazy so all you have to do is read. ___________________________________________________________________________________
Actress of the Month
      This lets the children have variety. They can actually pick who they want an article about in the newspaper. It is so fun for the children. They can say I like her and I don't like her. It can only be a girl actress though. You try to keep it in the Disney Channel.
       If you keep it limited to good actresses, it doesn't harm the kids. I like the idea of being able to pick what I want in the newspaper. It gives me something to do. I think that it is not a bad idea. I think that the students will like it.
        The children will love being able to pick. They won't just sit around and wait for the newspaper. It is so cool. They love have some responsibility. They are not useless although some may act useless. It makes them so happy to for you.
         This is a great idea. They should do this in newspapers everywhere. I know that children would love that. Newspapers now are not fun at all. It will make the students love newspapers once again. I know the children would love that. ___________________________________________________________________________________
Crazy Cover Sheet
             I think this will give kids something to do when they get bored. They can do it after test. They can use it to cover their test. They can color it. It is just a fun thing to. It will have games on it. I think the students will love it.
             They will have so much fun with it. I know I will love it. I love the games that we can do on paper now-a days. It is so cool. I think the kids will have an awesome time playing on it. I know that it will be awesome.
             It is so so cool. The people who make it will have fun too. They can find out what kids want to do. It is so hard and fun. Kids like to be on the newspaper. It gives them work to do. It makes them feel good to make a cover sheet for the kids.
             I think everyone will enjoy a crazy cover sheet. I know I would. Everyone will have a blast with a crazy cover sheet. If I had a survey, almost everyone would vote for the crazy cover sheet. It will probally be the best thing in the newspaper.
