WEEK 15

This week was a remarkable week for England. Prince William and his fiancé got married today, April 29th. It marked history for the world. It is especially happy because of the disaster that had happened to Prince William and his brother Prince Harry. Princess Diana (their mother) died early in her life from a horrible car crash. This wedding lead to a new path for Prince William. It was a very exciting event for the couple, as well as the rest of the world. The Royal Wedding has been the center of all media ever since their announcement. Do you think their has been too much coverage of the Royal Wedding?
 
The Royal Wedding

I know how most people feel about this (saying that their has been way too much coverage). However, I think that it is a very exciting event for the world. I got to watch the Royal Wedding on the news this morning and it was like nothing I had ever seen. History like this doesn't typically happen nowadays and it's exciting to see that the world still has some old traditions.

Week 14

The presidential elections coming up for the year 2012 are going to be big. Some of the presidential candidates include Mitch Daniels, our current president Barack Obama, and Donald Trump. Yep, Donald Trump. Do you think Donald Trump can be considered a serious candidate for the position of the President of the United States?

Donald Trump

I'm not so sure. He is seen more as a famous person on television than as a political role model. I mean, Ronald Reagan was an actor and he became a good president; however, I don't think that Donald Trump can be taken seriously. He knows a lot about money but can he run the country? The economy is not the only thing that needs to be taken care of in the United States.

WEEK 13

This past year, Simon Cowell left TV's hit show American Idol. This fall, he is premiering his new show "The X-Factor." Auditions are to be held this Thursday at Foxwoods.
Some people say that American Idol is getting old and is not as popular anymore. Do you think that "The X-Factor" will be too similar?


SIMON COWELL

Yes, I do think this new show is going to be too much like American Idol. If Simon Cowell left Idol, why would he go to a show that is just like it. He is going to get the same response. Therefore, I don't think that this show is going to make it.

WEEK 12

In recent news, Peyton was rumored to be the new father of twins. His wife Ashley, known as a private person, and Peyton were able to keep the pregnancy out of the news. The twins were born on March 31 in Indiana. Do you think Peyton will be able to handle another season of the Colts with two new babies on board?

Yes, I do think that Peyton could handle it. I'm not sure if it would be the right decision for him though. Peyton is a good guy. He does a lot of community work as well as being an amazing quarterback for the Colts. As much as I'd like to say Peyton should stay, I think it may be his time to a break and raise his kids. However, I'm pretty sure Manning just signed another contract to play for the Colts so he must have known what he was doing. And like I said, I think he can handle it so I'm sure he'll be just fine.
