    August 16, 2010 The spring and summer didn't go as planned for Mark Angelo. The former Quakertown High standout began the year with the Seattle Mariners organization, but was released on Easter weekend just as the season was about to start. So, Angelo, who batted .272 in 39 games for Seattle's Arizona League affiliate in 2009, came back home and returned to his Blue Mountain League team, the Hellertown Royals. It may not have been where Angelo wanted to spend his summer, but he made the most of it.

    "mong several federal appeals court rulings on student speech in the spring and summer of 2011 were five involving high school students punished for off-campus, online speech. The issue appears increasingly likely to reach the U.S. Supreme Court to resolve an apparent split among several circuits and to address confusion about whether the Supreme Court's standards for censoring or punishing student speech should extend off campus."

    "Last summer, physicists announced that they had identified a particle with characteristics of the elusive Higgs boson, the so-called "God particle." But, as often the case in science, they needed to do more research to be more certain. On Thursday, scientists announced that the particle, detected at the Large Hadron Collider, the world's most powerful particle-smasher, looks even more like the Higgs boson. The news came at the Moriond Conference in La Thuile, Italy, from scientists at the Large Hadron Collider's ATLAS and Compact Muon Solenoid experiments. These two detectors are looking for unusual particles that slip into existence when subatomic particles crash into one another at high energies."

      I found this interesting because I'm interested in fashion, and outdoor markets. Importance or Impact: it impacted the people who go to the outdoor markets in and near Chicago because this one was unlike the rest offering things like tea tasting and unique clothing vendors. Timeliness: takes place monthly between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Proximity: Chicago. Meaning: it brings a new meaning to the outdoor market, that will bring a new mix of vendors that you wouldnt normally find.

    EVERY summer in Chicago, most neighborhoods put on their own street fair, with generally the same mix of homogeneous items: cheap sunglasses, tacky art, deep-fried food and music by local bands. But recently, a new concept - let's call it the curated flea market - has caught on, thanks to the introduction this year of Dose Market by a group of young and intrepid media and style experts.

high school stress homework summer work

shared by Michelle Papp on 14 Sep 11 - No Cached
  • The infamous school year stress has already begun by the first day of school. On day one of our 180 day school year, book projects are due, and tests are waiting to be taken. Let the all-nighters and the pressure to not fail begin. Is this any comparison to the serenity of being on a beach? . . . Nowhere close.

      I find this article newsworthy because it applies to me, and I feel and think many of the things that the article describes as a student. The article contains importance/impact, timeliness, and proximity. The article is important because it applies to the majority of high school students, which is a large chunk of our population. The topic it explains, excessive stress due to large loads of schoolwork, is something experienced by all of our as adolescents, and which can greatly impact our futures. The story is timely because for students, summer has just ended and given way to a new school year. While the school discussed is in the Fayette County School system, it applies to all high schools, across the nation, including my own.

    The college student from Moldova was in the United States on a cultural exchange program run for half a century by the federal government, a program designed to build international understanding by providing foreign students with a dream summer of fun in America. So he summoned his best English for the e-mail he sent to the State Department in June.

  • TOMS RIVER, N.J. — “How come she’s so white and you’re so dark?”
  • The question tore through Heather Greenwood as she was about to check out at a store here one afternoon this summer. Her brown hands were pushing the shopping cart that held her babbling toddler, Noelle, all platinum curls, fair skin and ice-blue eyes.
