More sport in school

More schools are now  giving less gym class for the older students because school is starting to get more serious. (Hook)

Sports can fix so the ones with weight issues and soulasation issues, and fix all that before it's to late.
(Sport is important in school)


Sports are not only for exercise. Students also to get to know other people from other classes and meet new friends. For the students that are usually lonely can maybe give them a chance to know someone new. Sports is a easy way to get to know new people just cuse the team work and no one really cars how a person is or what they usually do when you play. (Reason 1, Reason 2 Reason 3)

Exercise if you live in India you don't really have other peritonitis to go and exercise.
With out any exercise it can lead to dipression. (Good reason)

Miss a lot of school, that can lead to bad grads or maybe not turning in the homework every time. And the school work leads to a future when sports are just for the students to have some fun.  (Make concession)

All this exerice and work out leads to an Healthier and more energy full person. When you have convinst your self to do all this workout you will have as an habit like something you fell like you have to do everyday. Then it will be easy to convis your self to do the homework to. (Destroy concession)

Sports and exercise are important so you can feel good about your self and also having
fun. Exercise that then lead to more energy to doing school work.  Sports make school so much more fun for example everyone need to maybe show that they are good at
something, beside school. (conclution)

Chigago Sun-times editorial

Editorial: Legalize marijuana for certain illnesses



Reasonable people see a difference between using marijuana to treat the symptoms of a serious illness and passing out joints on a playground. Yet both acts, under current law, are criminal.  (hook)

State lawmakers can fix that by passing a pending bill, which in previous years has been shot down, that would legalize the medical use of marijuana by people with cancer, HIV, Crohn’s disease and several other illnesses. (introduction)

Fifteen other states and the District of Columbia have legalized medical marijuana, which has been shown to reduce the nausea and vomiting that are typical side effects of anti-cancer drugs. It also is effective in improving the appetite of AIDS patients, treating the pain of multiple sclerosis and treating the pressure within the eye caused by glaucoma. (reason one, reason two, reason three, reason four, reason five)

A measure before the Illinois House would allow people with specific medical conditions to purchase marijuana from not-for-profit dispensaries, so long as they have proof of medical need from their doctor. A database would be set up to make sure patients don’t buy more than 2.5 ounces every 14 days. And the law would expire, if not renewed, in three years. (specifice information, thus reasons six & seven)

Lawmakers should not fear that supporting this bill will make them look soft on crime.

A national poll conducted last year by the Washington Post and ABC News found that 81 percent of Americans favor legalizing medical marijuana. (reason eight)

Will there be abuses? Of course. The same can be said of legal prescription painkillers, whose misuse can be far more dangerous. But the multiple safeguards written into this carefully crafted bill should keep the unintended consequences to a minimum while finally giving to people in great physical pain the relief they need. (concession) (smackdown of concession) (final brilliant reason crafted into a concluding statement)

Few lessons learned from spill 


(Fling wide the gates  (headline)

OUR OPINION: A year later, the Gulf is recovering but still terribly vulnerable to more pollution (deck)

The tourists are back, the commercial and recreational fishing industries are at work again and the Gulf of Mexico’s waters still gently lap the white sands of Florida’s west coast. Tar balls are few and far between again in the Panhandle, and life is largely back to normal one year after the nation’s worst oil spill began on April 20. (Hook, Introduction)
But what appears to be normalcy a year after British Petroleum’s Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded, killing 11 men and, ultimately, spewing an estimated five million barrels of oil into the Gulf, masks the ongoing damage from the massive spill. And, with a gallon of gas at $4, the rush is on once more to expand deep drilling for oil and gas in the Gulf. (background information)
Few lessons have been learned, it appears, from the summer of gushing crude fouling one of the nation’s great fisheries. Congress has refused to act on the recommendations offered by a presidential commission, co-chaired by Florida’s former U.S. Sen. Bob Graham, to tighten drilling regulations. Instead, a U.S. House committee just passed three bills to give the drilling industry quicker and wider access to the Gulf. Frightening. (State your position) (reason, specific)
One bright note is that the U.S. Department of Interior has steadily improved its drilling regulations without waiting for Congress to act. There are new safety measures, like requiring the development of deep-water containment systems for blowouts, and tougher, more-independent oversight. 
(concession)
Clearly, though, we as a nation are no closer to resolving our dependency on both domestic and foreign oil, no nearer to developing a national energy policy that would wean us away from oil toward cleaner renewable energy sources. (Destroy concession with brilliant response )
As for the Gulf itself, scientists agree that a lot of the oil has evaporated, been skimmed or eaten by microbes. Still, some oil sank, and it is smothering coral beds and continues to take a toll on wildlife. This year there has been an unusually high spike in dolphins stranding along the coast — more than 170 have been found dead, nearly half of them babies, since January.(concession2)  (Destroy concession with brilliant response )

And if the five effected Gulf states are in recovery mode, many thousands of people who saw their livelihoods plummet during the four months it took to cap the gusher still await payouts from the $20 billion fund established by BP, which so far has paid out only one quarter of that. The numerous court cases stemming from the spill will take years to settle. Litigants now include the Miami-Dade Public School District, which joined a lawsuit at the request of board member Raquel Regalado, a lawyer who will help pro bono to recover revenue lost when tourism dropped considerably. (reason, specific)
Gov. Rick Scott and Attorney General Pam Bondi are opting not to include Florida in the Gulf states’ lawsuit against Transocean, the oil rig’s operator. They say they will get the state’s fair share of reparations by filing claims against BP under terms of the Oil Pollution Act, thus saving legal costs. Their decision has elicited both praise and criticism from legal experts, leaving Floridians to scratch their heads but hope for the best.
Ultimately, the Deepwater Horizon spill looked like an environmental and economic disaster of epochal proportions. Happily, it didn’t live up to the worst expectations. That said, the country as a whole must share responsibility to make sure that this Gulf spill is the last one of any magnitude to sully our shores(Conclusion)



Abuse, hysteria and LibDem desperation



Calm down, dears. Invoking Hitler’s propaganda chief, LibDem Chris Huhne accuses Tory Chairman Baroness Warsi of running a ‘Goebbels-like campaign’. Meanwhile, Paddy Ashdown declares he’s ‘fighting furious’.
(Hook, Introduction)

‘The personalisation of the No campaign is disgusting politics,’ he says – adding, without conscious irony, that Chancellor George Osborne’s strategy ‘stinks’.
(background information)

You’d think they were condemning the foulest of war crimes. But, no. This is the ludicrously intemperate language with which the LibDems seek to challenge the arguments against the obscure AV voting system, which they believe would give them more seats.
Elsewhere, Vince Cable speaks of widespread ‘revulsion’ against ‘offensive’ Tory policies – just days after accusing the Prime Minister of ‘inflaming extremism’ with his low-key (and probably empty) remarks about limiting immigration.

(specific information)

Coming from the party that promised us a ‘new kind of politics,’ isn’t there something deranged about the LibDems’ choice of vocabulary?
(reason 1, general)

If it smacks of desperation, no wonder. For the Yes to AV camp really does face serious questions about its conduct.
As the Chancellor argues, it is indeed questionable why the Electoral Reform Society, whose commercial arm may stand to gain from AV, should be allowed to bankroll the campaign.
And what is the supposedly apolitical Joseph Rowntree Reform Trust doing, handing over its entire income for last year to promote the AV cause?
Then there are the Yes campaign’s lies. They keep telling us AV guarantees that every MP will have the support of at least 50 per cent of voters. Not true.


(reason 2, specific)


They say it will do away with safe seats. No, it won’t. Mysteriously, they even claim it will mean MPs have to ‘work harder’ and fiddle their expenses less(concession)
How do they work that one out?
Of course, the great truth they avoid mentioning is that they’re backing AV – dismissed even by Nick Clegg as a ‘miserable little compromise’ – simply because they hope it will be replaced by Italian-style proportional representation which would make the LibDems all but impossible to dislodge from power.
This is a fact that no amount of hysterical, utterly disproportionate personal abuse can conceal.

Obama urges spending cuts and raised

Headline


who what where when 

President Barack Obama has called for raised taxes on the rich as well as cuts in government spending in 
what he termed a balanced approach to cutting the huge US budget deficit.

How-Why the audience cares

In a speech in Washington DC he outlined a package of tax increases and spending cuts aimed at reducing the deficit by $4tn (£2.45tn) by 2023.



Most important details 

He attacked Republican plans he said would harm the poor and elderly.

Republicans have said any increase in taxes is a "non-starter".
"We have to live within our means, reduce our deficit, and get back on a path that will allow us to pay down our debt," Mr Obama said in a speech at George Washington University.
"And we have to do it in a way that protects the recovery, and protects the investments we need to grow, create jobs, and win the future."
The ballooning US deficit is set to be a top issue in the 2012 election campaign, and in recent weeks, Republicans have laid out their own plan to cut it, based on big reductions in healthcare and social programmes for the poor and elderly and in education spending.
The deficit is forecast to reach $1.5 trillion (£921bn) this year and both Democrats and Republicans have said cutting it is a priority.
Mr Obama on Wednesday unveiled his own proposal - in a speech in which he used the word "vision" more than a dozen times.
The remarks came after Republicans had accused him of failing to exercise leadership, and many US political analysts said the Republican opposition had seized the political momentum.
Republicans on Wednesday attacked Mr Obama's speech as mere campaign rhetoric, noting he recently launched his re-election bid. Primarily, they firmly rejected his proposal to raise additional tax revenue from the wealthy.
"At a time when millions of our countrymen remain unemployed, the president again proposes tax increases on job creators," said Jeb Hensarling of Texas, a member of the party's House leadership team, calling Mr Obama's speech "class warfare".
Representative Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, chairman of the House budget committee, said: "Exploiting people's emotions of fear, envy and anxiety is not hope, it's not change, it's partisanship. We don't need partisanship. We don't need demagoguery. We need solutions."
Led by Mr Ryan, Republicans have offered their own proposal that would go further than Mr Obama's, slashing $6.2 trillion from government spending over the next decade, in large part through cuts to government programmes that serve the elderly and the poor.
The proposal would also drastically reduce taxes for wealthy Americans, a move conservatives say would boost economic growth.
The House is due to vote on Mr Ryan's proposal on Friday.
In his speech, the president repeatedly drew a contrast with the Republicans' proposal, insisting that spending cuts should not harm the US social safety net, such as the social security retirement system and healthcare programmes for the poor and elderly.
In particular, he singled out the Republicans' proposal to cut taxes for the wealthy while making elderly Americans pay more for their healthcare, as analysts say the Republican plan would work out.
"This is not a vision of the America I know," he said.
"They want to give people like me a $200,000 tax cut that's paid for by asking 33 seniors to each pay $6,000 more in health costs? That's not right, and it's not going to happen as long as I'm president.
"The fact is, their vision is less about reducing the deficit than it is about changing the basic social compact in America.
"There's nothing serious about a plan that claims to reduce the deficit by spending a trillion dollars on tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires."
Bruising battle ahead Buoyed by the fiscally conservative Tea Party movement, Republicans have won a series of policy victories, including forcing $38.5bn in government spending cuts for the remainder of the current fiscal year.
On Wednesday, Mr Obama also sought to brush back liberals in his own party who warn cutting spending now would hinder the nascent economic recovery.
"Doing nothing on the deficit is just not an option," he said. "Our debt has grown so large that we could do real damage to the economy if we don't begin a process now to get our fiscal house in order."
US political observers expect the fight over the government budget for the fiscal year beginning 1 October to be bruising, as Republicans and Democrats push their competing visions.
Last week, the US government came within an hour of shutting down as Republican and Democratic leaders battled to reach an agreement on a budget for the next six months.
The deal reached just before midnight on Friday cut $38.5bn in government spending to 30 September.

Fiasco against CIS



Henrik Andreasson was exhausted after removing 11 balls from the back of his net in the match against Cis last week.


Cis had the lead  with 5-0 at half time, and had a lot of good chances to score. They scored
6 more  goals after the break and they had more chances in the second half so it could have been worse.

Cis players were older than the players from Stonehill, and they were more skilled. Stonehill didn't play as a team, and also two of the best players weren't there Sarig and Philip.

    The game scores ended with 11-0 for CIS, and that was an embarrassment for Stonehill
    The match were already unfair form the beginning CIS players were older then Stonehills and by that also faster stronger and had more skills. After a few min in to the game they 
    scored the first goal. Stonehill only had two shuts at goal.

    USA today golf story

    McIlroy, Quiros start
    strong, share
    Masters first-round
    lead


    AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Rory McIlroy (FSY)
    teed off in the morning and put up a score
    for everyone to chase at the Masters. Then,
    after grabbing some lunch, he plopped
    down in front of the television to see if
    anyone could catch him.


    No one did — until a long-hitting Spaniard in
    the last group of the day.

    Alvaro Quiros (FSY), who had never shot
    better than 75 in two previous Masters,
    birdied the final two holes under darkening
    skies to match McIlroy with a 7-under 65 on
    Thursday.

    There were plenty of red numbers on the
    board, the golfers able to attack the
    venerable course on a warm, sunny day with
    only a slight hint of a breeze.



    South Koreans Y.E. Yang (FSY) and K.J. Choi 
    (FSY)
    were two shots back at 67. Nine other
    players were in the 60s. Defending champ

    Phil Mickelson
     (FSY) scrambled for a 70, and
    Tiger Woods
     (FSY) was within striking
    distance at 71.


    McIlroy, a 21-year-old from Northern
    Ireland, is used to contending in the majors,
    finishing third at last year's British Open and
    PGA Championship. He also helped Europe
    reclaim the Ryder Cup. Now, he's the
    youngest first-round leader in Masters
    history after a bogey-free round.

    "I trusted everything," McIlroy said. "I trusted
    where I wanted to hit the ball. That's the key
    around here. With some of these pins, you
    can get tentative and try to guide it in there.
    You just have to pick your targets and trust
    your swing. I was very happy with the way I
    did that."

    McIlroy nearly duplicated his dynamic start
    at last year's British Open, where he started
    with a 63. The next day at St. Andrews, in a
    howling wind that actually forced a brief
    delay, he slumped to an 80.

    He shouldn't face those conditions in
    Georgia, where the forecast calls for warm,
    sunny weather through the weekend.
    Whatever happens, he feels better prepared
    to deal with any adversity.

    Stylish Real cruise past Lyon

    Real Madrid   3 - 0   Lyon (agg 4 - 1)

    By Les Roopanarine
    Real Madrid reached the Champions League quarter-finals for the first time since 2004 by eliminating Lyon with an accomplished attacking display. (who what where when)
    Jose Mourinho's side took the lead on 37 minutes when Brazil international Marcelo exchanged passes with Cristiano Ronaldo before scoring.
    Karim Benzema doubled the home side's advantage, finishing with aplomb from Marcelo's upfield punt.
    Angel Di Maria completed the win on 76 minutes following a Mesut Ozil flick. (how)
    It was a case of seventh time lucky for Real who, having previously failed to successfully negotiate a Champions League knock-out tie on six consecutive occasions, grew in confidence following Marcelo's opener. (why the audience cares)

    Perhaps surprisingly, the weight of history was against the nine-time champions, who had failed to beat Lyon in each of their seven previous meetings.
    But there is no better man to lift such a hoodoo than Mourinho, who has not presided over a home defeat for any of the clubs he has managed since 2002, and rarely looked like doing so against a Lyon side whose sloppy defending did little to advance their cause. (most important details, Personality)
    Marcelo's crucial opening goal at the Bernabeu Stadium was stamped with Brazilian class, the defender cutting in from the left, exchanging passes with Ronaldo, and then showing excellent balance and composure to slot the ball across Hugo Lloris in the Lyon goal.
    Yet the ease with which the left-back weaved past his compatriot Cris was a sign of things to come.
    Mourinho's pre-match talk of playing defensively to claim the goalless draw that would have sufficed after last month's 1-1 draw at the Stade de Gerland was revealed as kidology almost from the first whistle.
    Real were direct and aggressive from the outset, and within minutes Marcelo had tested Lloris with a low effort.
    Ronaldo, returning from a two-match absence with a thigh injury, caused right-back Anthony Reveillere all manner of problems, and sent in a venomous curled effort that Lloris tipped over in athletic style.

    West Ham   2 - 4   Man Utd


    By Mandeep Sanghera
    Wayne Rooney's hat-trick inspired Premier League leaders Manchester United to fight back from two goals down to beat West Ham.
    A Patrice Evra handball and Nemanja Vidic foul on Carlton Cole allowed Mark Noble to twice score from the spot for the relegation-battling Hammers.
    Vidic escaped a red card for a foul on Demba Ba before Rooney curled in a free-kick and powered in a shot.
    A Rooney penalty put the visitors ahead and Javier Hernandez poked in a fourth.
    The importance of the win was signified as United increased their lead over Arsenal, who were held by Blackburn, to seven points and moved 11 points in front of a Chelsea side held 1-1 at Stoke as their rivals slipped up in the later games.
    West Ham will point to the decision not to send off Vidic and Rooney's penalty being awarded courtesy of a harsh handball against Matthew Upson as key decisions against them.
    The visitors, on the other hand, again showed the resilience and resolve that will let their title rivals know they will not be knocked off the top of the league without a battle.
    With depleted resources and under challenging circumstances, Sir Alex Ferguson's side proved that although they might not have the flamboyance of United sides of the past they make up for it with their fighting qualities.
