Google shuts china site in Dispute Over Censorship
March, 23,2010

Genre: Technology

This article is about how Google is not working in china anymore because the Chinese are censoring sites without Google permission, also they are not protecting the site against hackers. The ones that are producing Google in China are really angry because of the wrong use of Google that people are making, so that is what they get.

Bias: It teaches us that if we don't use things properly they might go away so you should take advantage of them.

This impacts our lives because we now know that Google is being serious with all the bad usses so we should use it well and take advantage that we still have in in English and in Spanish.
We now know that Google is a special site for us to use and with out it we wouldn't have a source as good, that provides as much of information as Google.

How Privacy Vanishes Online

March 6,2010

This article is about how people that use online technology and they dont have their own privacy. There is a problem that many people are meeting online and making lies of who they are. Facebook, Twitter and other internet sources are the main cause of not having online privacy.

Bias- It makes us learn that we need to be careful while doing the internet.

This impacts our lives because now we wouldnt like to enter the internet with having many people looking at the things we do. Even though it is fun it is dangerous and theres a percentage of risk of life. We hope that now many people would learn not to put personal info. in places that is used by all the world.

Bill Clinton fresh out of hospital, eager to go back to work.

February 12, 2010

Genre-Politics

This article is about president Bill Clinton wanting to work harder than ever and not trying to heal a little bit more. He thinks he would be bad if he isn't working because he now has a strong and healthy body. The heart surgery has been a succes and now he can live happily. Before he had the surgery he was working over load until he notice that his chest hurted. He checked it and knew that he had something wrong with his heart. He still worked with the haiti government to save the people in Haiti after the terrible accident.

no bias

We think this inpacts our life because we think that this president is really responsible. Wanting to help other countries and also thinking that it is more important to take care of other people and dont being able to preoccupy about his health. We think that this type of leader should be spread around the world because we think that he is a person that helps more than what he gains. ( examplas like money or power.) Its a relief that he can be healthy again.

China Alarmed by Security Threat From Internet

February 11, 2010

Genre- jobs, real estate, autos

This article is about 2 years ago they sent to a Chinese a greeting card but actually it was a hacking system and was copying all the files to the USA and now Chinese army is preparing to defend their land and country. china right now is very unhappy with USA for what they have done and that's why they are preparing to attack. Also the have submarines under the ocean around USA investigating everything the people who sent the hacking and what are the things that they are doing.

no it doesn't has a bias.

We think this impacts our live because if there is war between two big countries the world could be a major disaster. Also the world would become a planet in which not even a bug or a living thing can live in it. There would be pollution because of all the smoke and bullets that get left out in the land fills. We hope that we the two big countries can save a treaty so that we can be peace full again.
