Usher's stepson, Kile Glover, dead after life support removed.

In "http://articles.latimes.com/2012/jul/22/entertainment/la-et-mg-usher-stepson-dead-kile-glover-tameka-raymond" the author brings to the light how Kile Glover came to be on life support.
One example that supports my answer is when the article states, "Kile was taken off life support and died Saturday morning, a little more than two weeks after the July 6 accident on Lake Lanier, about 40 miles from Atlanta. His mother is Tameka Foster Raymond."
Another example that supports my answer from the article is when it says "Kile was floating on an inner tube with a 15-year-old girl behind a pontoon boat that had been rented by the family and friends. Another member of their party allegedly ran them over while riding a personal watercraft, leaving Kile in critical condition and the girl with injuries that reportedly included a broken arm."
I found this topic very interesting because although Usher Raymond is a celebrity, he is also a normal Father fighting for custody of his stepson. 
Not only did his stepson get rushed to the hospital in Atlanta but when everything was calm and settle he was reported "brain dead". 
What caught my attention is how Usher Raymond reacted to the situation. He was devastated and heartbroken about the outcome of the situation.
People need to realize that celebrities were normal people too at one point of time. I think that they deserve their privacy and should be treated like regular people. 
Not only do they have to face the same problems as normal people do in everyday life but they have to face even bigger problems like having to deal with the different kind of critics sending false information out to the fans of celebrities.

Yay! Boo! So? Reactions to Obama win vary

In "Yay! Boo! So? Reactions to Obama win vary" author Peter Mucha points out likes and dislikes about the elcection.
One example from the article is when Jackie Harrison,45, says "I knew Barack was going to win, he's more trustworthy and he seems more like a people person."
Another example that supports dislikes about the election is when Len Burkhardt stated "I would prefer to have a buisinessman like Romney in the White House, because Obama is not as fiscally smart or fiscally responsible."
I found this article very outgoing and well organized because of the way the author gave different perspectives on what they like and don't like about Obama and Romney. Many people has different opinions on how the election turned out some good and some bad but the official outcome is that Obama won.
I think this topic is very interesting because some people this year are first time voters and because of that, it made the election very tense and on your toes because each and every vote counted.
Although some people said bad things and some people said good things about how the election turned out, Noreen Kirkland states "I'm pleased with how the election turned out. Although I think Romney would how how to get jobs and people back to work. But I'll respect the office of the president no matter what."
When Noreen stated that I felt as though she was letting people know that no matter who the President is, she'll always respect them and treat them like any other President.

Will Climate Change Get Some Respect Now ?

In "Will Climate Change Get Some Respect Now " Author Nicholas D. brings to the light how hurricanes come about. Therefore the article explains how they are started, what fuels them, the climate change, and how Hurricane Sandy was destructive.
One example that supports my answer in the article is where it says "Sandy was particularly destructive because it was prevented from moving back out to sea by a " blocking pattern " associated with the jet stream. There's debate about this, but one recent study suggested that melting sea ice in the Arctic may lead to such blocking ".
Another example that supports my answer from the article is when Nicholas indicates " Democrats have been absent on climate change, but Republicans have been even more stubborn. Their failure is odd, because in other areas of national security Republicans pride themselves on their preparedness. Romney doesn't want to wait until he sees an Iranian  nuclear weapon before acting, so why the lack of action on climate change?"
I didn't find this topic interesting because the beginning didn't catch my attention and it forced me to not want to read on.
This topic somewhat occurs to the world today but it seems as though the idea and the  topic was all over the place so I couldn't really understand. 
Another thing about this article is that it does talk about hurricanes first and then talk about problems between the govenor and the president, but the form of the article needs to be more organized so it can be more understandable.
