SuperBowl!
The Super Bowl is one of the most T.V. events being watched. In America football is very BIG thing and the Super Bowl couldn't be any BIGGER. Therefore any commercial being shown during the Super Bowl is going to be watched by millions of people and million$ of people means million$ of dollars as well. This is why companies are willing to spend up to 3 million dollars on a 30 second commercial! This year Tim Tebow, a celebrity, pro football player, and loved, or hated by many people is going to be on a commercial during the Super Bowl. Tim Tebow's commercial is about "Focus for the family". The fact that Tim's mom almost had an abortion and because she didn't he was born. Tim Tebow's commercial is becoming a great issue because of the religion situation. Of about Ninety-three million people that are going to be watching the Super Bowl are probably not all Christians. I hope they put the commercial because abortion should be banned. Abortion is just not right.

Haiti is a small country of about 10,714 square miles. In 2009 its population was 10,033,000. Roman Catholicism is the official religion of Haiti, but voodoo may be considered the country's national religion. The majority of Haitians believe in and practice at least some of voodoo.
A 7.0 earthquake just occurred on January 12, 2010 destroying the whole country, Haiti.
Because of the disastrous earthquake, most of Haiti people are homeless, dead, and in need of water, food, and supplies. Between 100,000 and 200,000 of lives have been claimed to be taken by the earthquake. With so many dead they do not have a enough space to bury them in, so instead they just threw them in holes and buried them in piles.
The orphanages in Port-au-Prince have been packed with children, and don't have enough room or people to help care for them. Many of the children are sick and have diseases, some of children are just living in the streets alone. The US is bringing them to Florida so they can be adopted. The US is also striving Medical help and supplies for the children.
Right now the Haitians are in need of water, food, medical supplies, almost anything! And fast! They lost everything and with the help of the US, Russia, China, United Nations, and more we can solve this problem. The US are sending soldiers, supplies and more. Russia sent doctors and China donated 4.4 million dollars.
Stars as well are making a difference too. Many famous people like Gisele Bundchen, the supermodel and a new mom wrote a $1 million check to the Red Cross Friday! Also the season 8 American Idol winner Tweeted a link to an American Idol fan Unicef page accepting donations.
The singer Wyclef Jean has already raised more than $1 million through his Yele Haiti Earthquake Fund.The NBA is also donating. There are much more making a difference and changing a Haitian's life one step at a time.
This pictures makes me feel the pain and loss that they have to go through.
This picture makes me feel sad because they have lost everything and start all over again.

Hall of Fame
Mark McGwire should be out of the Hall of Fame. Yea he confessed, but he should have said something in 2005! Why now when its way too late?? He cheated and does not deserve to be in the Hall of Fame along with all the other players that have done steroids. To be in the Hall of Fame is very honorable and he doesn't deserve at all.

The best for the Town.
To improve the town I would try to start a small donation center. Where people could bring anything they don't want and leave it there for people that actually need those things. It would help the people in need. The other thing would be to start a small tournaments of volleyball tennis or whatever at the park. That way teens could be active and have better things to do rather than partying or drinking.

New Years Resolutions
Resolutions are very common especially at this time of the year. People see that they could change their year at a good start. Maybe something bad happened the year before and they don't want for the new fresh year to end up just like the one before. A new year means a whole new fresh start. The most commonly resolution I think is probably to lose weight. Every year millions of people try all these different diets. Well since the new year is here they see that this could be their chance of starting something and actually trying to stick with it at a fresh start. I think that the reason for only a small amount of people that actually stick with their resolutions is because usually the resolutions are really big and can make a big difference in your life if you stick with them. Since the resolutions are so big they make it harder to stick with and they just give up. My three resolutions would be to have good grades, saving money, and happiness. Having good grades means a bright future with great oppurtunities. Saving money would mean I could finally raise enough for a car or something I really want. Having happiness is one of those most important. As long as I'm happy nothing much matters!
