"Teaching grownups: Cancer charity says school can learn from girl banned for going bald"

She shouldn't have been punished for this. Why is shaving your head against the dress code? It doesn't make sense.

I've gone to Grand Junction a lot as a kid and know people there, so it surprises me to find out that they are discriminating a cancer patient at a school.

It had been planned as a vigil, but the service quickly turned into a memorial once the news broke that Ebola had killed Eric Duncan, the virus's first victim in the US.

I think it's awful and so unfortunate that at a time like this the family can't be at Eric's funeral. I can't begin to imagine how it would be to have to handle that and be quarantined in a house away from other family members even until the 21 day incubation period is over.

Poor guy.

I think they should get him out peacefully if possible and interrogate him to find out why he did it and who he did it for. If they can not get him out peacefully they should use force to get him and protect the hostages that he has fortunately not hurt so far.

(CNN) -- A night of triumph for San Francisco baseball fans was marred by shootings, fires and arrests. Police said at least two people were shot in San Francisco amid celebrations for the Giants' victory over the Kansas City Royals on Wednesday night, CNN affiliate KTVU said.

I think that people need to act like human beings and not animals when something great in sports happens.

People need to be respectful and not act out when something like this happens in sports

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry hails the new administration as a "major milestone" Iraq's parliament has approved a new government, setting the stage for expanded U.S. military support to battle the Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS).

I think its good that John Kerry is planing to stop a terrorist group.

"Using digital memory cards he smuggled out images of the communist nation he was forbidden to take. Mr Lafforgue wanted to show that North Koreans are humans, not robots, who also suffer."

I think North Korea doesn't want these pictures to be published on the web because they do not want to show the ugly side of their country. The poor, working children especially.

This was shocking. They must have good security in North Korea because I didn't know this side of North Korea. I'm on the photographers side in this position. North Korea has so tight of security on exposure of their country that they almost seem ashamed of their homeland.

Bud Gillett Bud is the most veteran reporter at CBS 11 News with 42 years in m... From Our CBS Music Web Sites WAXAHACHIE (CBS 11 NEWS) - A blocks-long chase of a stray emu ended with police having to put the animal down for attacking a human.

They could have tranquilize the emu.

It was right to kill the animal because it was a threat to humans

In the five months since Jan Morgan banned Muslims from her gun range in Hot Springs, Ark., business has boomed and predictions of a lawsuit brought by federal civil rights enforcers have so far proved inaccurate.

That's really wrong that they ban people based on their religion. There is millions of Muslims around the world and ban their freedom because of something someone else did is wrong!!

I understand that she wants to keep potential terrorists out of her gun range. But as long as they are legal American citizens, they have a right to be able to join a private gun club. She is jumping to conclusions by assuming that every Muslim is a terrorist, by kicking out people of different religions such as Hinduism, and by someone being "brown" in color.

That's what CDC epidemiologists call carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae or CRE, which kill up to half the patients who contract them. The family of superbugs made headlines two years ago when the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned they were spreading.

I think that we should be careful because this sounds like a serious topic.

This is why there has been rules and regulations for years about washing hands and sanitation. I agree with the last paragraph of the article about doctors not jumping to prescribe antibiotics, as bacteria over the years have become resistant to it because of all the antibiotics. It's sad that some antibiotics that can kill this super bug can cause other health issues to us. Medical providers have to very careful not to spread such bacteria around and be careful about the antibiotics and medicines they provide to patients.

"The new defense spending bill includes $120 million for tanks that the Army has repeatedly said it doesn't want."

I think that congress should quit spending money on things we don't need. The military has repeatedly told them not to make more, but congress keeps having more made by spending money to keep the factories running.

The shocking images of a Jordanian Air Force pilot being burned alive in an outdoor cage by ISIS terrorists have galvanized the country, once seen as possible fertile recruitment ground for the group, behind King Abdullah II's calls for a stepped-up military campaign.

I think that Jordan is doing the right thing because what ISIS did was very inhumane and they deserve to be fought back. They can't just go around burning people alive just to give a message.

ISIS burning a pilot and video taping it is very inhumane and they deserve to be punished for their actions. Jordan is doing the right and uniting as a country to avenge one of their own. Jordanians standing behind their King and their military is good for their country and good for taking down ISIS.

What if the current massive spying on Americans began with an innocent secret executive order signed by President Reagan in 1986? What if Reagan contemplated that he was only authorizing American spies to spy on foreign spies unlawfully present in the U.S.? What if Reagan knew and respected the history of the Fourth Amendment?

Interesting opinion. This article makes me reflect on that balance between our government keeping us safe and invading our privacy. Strange in a way to think that Americans have been having this battle with our own government since the Revolutionary War!

"I think they realize that there's going to be tremendous costs and consequences and implications if they were to decide to go for a 'breakout,'" Brennan said on "Fox News Sunday," referring to Iran amassing enough of the materials necessary to build a nuclear bomb rather than use those materials for civil energy.

Are you planning on working for a nonprofit or the government? If so, that's a good first step. The program you're hearing about is designed to help ease the burden of skyrocketing tuition costs while encouraging graduates to enter low-paying but socially important "Main Street" jobs -- like teachers, firefighters, nurses, librarians, court clerks, public defenders and EMTs.

I like this idea. I think it will help many people that have a lot of debt. Only down side is that you have to pay for the first 10 years of your debt. I feel as you could almost pay off your student loans in ten years.

The case, brought by the Justice Department's public integrity unit, sets up a high-stakes battle between a New Jersey senator who has fought off investigations for years, and federal prosecutors and the FBI who have spent years pursuing him.

interesting i think that he did it you don't give back that much money because of an "oversight"

poor kid. that would be horrible to only be able to eat 7 different types of food

Unsolved Mysteries?

i hope he likes them...

A military training center in the Libyan town of Zliten was hit by a truck bomb on Thursday, causing dozens of casualties, witnesses said. They said the casualties included civilians, some of whom were taken to hospital in the nearby city of Misrata.

It's so tragic, it's crazy to think people would want to do this to others, especially to those who are trying to help protect your life. I couldn't imagine being a witness to this.

The rare exception: his immigration plan. As president, Trump says he would eject some 11 million undocumented workers from the country. He cites a specific model for his proposal: "Operation Wetback," an aggressive and unprecedented sweep by U.S.

They tried this a long time ago and it was considered a shameful chapter in american history because they were mean to people when they did it didn't even try to make it a little easy on them.

I think that a big change is coming in the United States. If Trump becomes president, there will no longer be peace in the place we call home. There will be so many people refusing to do what he says he wants to do. I personally feel that he doesn't have the right to say whether or not they are here. If it didn't work before, it won't work now. And him just trying it will cause conflict everywhere.

Classes have been canceled for the Los Angeles Unified School District due to an unspecified threat i think that it was right for them to shut down the schools and inspect to see if there was anything wrong for for the wellness of the students

The Finnish government, elected earlier this year, is planning to introduce a tax-free monthly payment of 800 euros ($865) to all adult Finns, regardless of income, wealth or employment status. The payment would replace most other state benefits. The government thinks that the move will actually save money.
