Students Deprived of Busses
Right now every student in the red clay school district has the option to take the bus to school. Starting next year this will be no more. The district has decided that there will be no busses to students in red clay who don’t have their school as a feeder pattern. Cab Calloway School of the Arts and Conrad will not be affected by this new rule because they are 100% choice. But any other school IN the Red Clay district will be. They say this will cut costs but still have not told us how. I think it is crucial for every student to have bus transportation! Some Parents (including mine) both have to go to work when I need to leave to go to school. There work is on one side of town and school is at the other. There is no plausible way for them to take me to school. So I rely on the bus. I am not affected for I go to Cab. But for high school I really don’t have a choice but to stay at cab if this goes through. My neighborhood is right in the center of the red clay district. But my development doesn’t have a feeder pattern for high school. We have to choice for high school! So even though I’m in the red clay district and I go to a Red clay school but because I have to choice for high school means I don’t get transportation? That’s not right. The District is trying to keep this on the DL (down Low) for they know this will cause a “riot” amongst parents. Not only will tons of kids have no transportation look at all the bus drivers! There must be tons that will now be out of work! It isn’t fair to them either! Plus, all the extra cars on the roads is bad for traffic problems, global warming, gas depletion, and could be a financial hardship for families. I think that even though we are 100% choice I think we should start getting the word out. What about all the kids in the neighborhood? Have you ever wanted your kid to go to the same high school you went to? Well that might not happen if you have to choice next school year! We need to get the word out now. If the district is deciding to do this without telling anyone then they must know it’s not right! So lets give them a riot. There asking for it! There are a lot of meetings and protests and such going on. Try to go to them. Or write a letter to Andrejeski personally. Tell your brothers your sisters your family and friends. If we all band together we can stop this. I don’t know how ANY tax paying parent could be for this!

Crucial Problems-Government Refuses To Tell Truth.
Were almost out of fuel! Global Warming isn’t THAT bad… Battery powered cars are the way to go. That is what the government is telling us. Did you know we really aren’t running out of fuel at all? Actually Were only running out of CHEAP fuel. Coal right now is 10X cheaper than gasoline today. But You have to take the Coal and convert it into Gasoline. For the same amount of power gasoline gives you, once converted, coal can give you the same amount of power. It will just be a little more expensive. When [or if…] we switch to coal It can last us for many century’s to come. The reason we are still importing fuel is because 1. it costs less money [only a little bit less] and 2. because we still haven’t built the plants to convert coal to gas. Germany and South Africa already have these plants and they are using them. From the point of view of physics everytyhing makes a lot more sense. For some reason the government does not want us to know these things. Another thing the government is saying is that global warming isn’t that bad and we don’t really need to worrie. They are WRONG! Global Warming is here now. We must stop it now. Waiting too long then it will become irreversible. Its like a hole in a pair of jeans. It starts out small and if you don’t patch it up as soon as it starts. Over time that hole will be so big that the bottom of your jeans tear off! It’s the same with global warming! One of the ways we can stop Global Warming is to conserve. Conserving fuel and things like that will not only keep costs down. It will also make less pollution which will start stoping global warming. But not only 1 person can make the difference. We all have to. If we all do we can stop global warming now. Has global warming already started to damage the earth? Yes The Earth is getting hotter. Global warming is not something that just started happening a few years ago. Back in Pompeii When the volcano erupted that also was contributing to Global Warming. But only now have we realized that Global Warming is very serious. The government doesn’t want to have to put there money into it. They rather fuel the war. Another dellema is battery powered cars and hybrids. Yes the do help the environment but it costs way more money per mile over gas. It costs so much to replace the batterys and they can only last about to 1000 charges! Also the Disposal and creation is not good either. The batterys are laced with dangerous chemicals and need to be disposed of specially. But Solar cars with only 1 square mile of sunlight it will peak as much power as a nuclear power plant! I really think that we all need to to understand this as the people. So we can make beter decisions in voting and decideing what to do for economy and how to not pollute. Everyone should know and understand this. This is real it is now and it needs to be stopped!

Example Article for Newspaper. 7-11 Robbery
7-11 Robbery Video Released!
At Roughly 11:45 pm on August the 18th a robbery took place at the 6th Street and Greenhill Avenue 7-11. A man came in with a gun. The clerks ran to the back of the counter, gave him all of the money and a few packs of cigarets and ran out. Police released the surveillance video in hopes of catching the suspect. They say he is roughly 5 foot 4 and 135 pounds. He was wearing a black t-shirt and white jeans. It’s amazing how people insist on robbing the 7-11. They only keep $30 at one time. THEY EVEN HAVE A STICKER ON THE DOOR telling people that there is only $30 in the register! There are much better places to rob than a 7-11. If anyone has any information on the criminal please call Wilmington Police detective John Ciritella at 576-3629 or 911.
