Scientist over the years have been studying cancer. Over the years we've discovered new things. Back in 1971 President Richord Nixon signed a thing on cancer. Then we thought cancer was cells that muliplied now we know their are many diseases to it. The number of deaths have gone down a huge amount.

U.S. have dropped by 22% for men and 14% for women between 1990 and 2007. And in 1975, only 50% of people diagnosed with cancer could expect to live for another five years; now nearly 70% do. This article would fall under "significance".

Mitchell Johnson, 13, and Andrew Golden, 11, shoot their classmates and teachers in Jonesboro, Arkansas.
4 students were killed including one teacher. 10 other people were wounded. The two boys were caught afterwards. Both boys were raised around guns. They were in shooting clubs.  The boys were underaged so they couldn't be charged as adults. Both were realeased when the turned 18.

What I would broadcast is something a bit violent. Because violence does get people's attention and can make people more aware of it.

As summer is still here gardeners should be ware of the cold front coming through. In the Twin Cities and in Southern Minnesota is under a freeze warning. Things such as fruit won't be able to survive the cold. But things such as tomatoes, peppers and many of vegetibles can be covered by a sheet. I think that it's a bummer because my family grows fruit in our little garden in our backyard. All though the tomatoes will be fine looks like we're done with the strawberries until next year. I thought that the artical was somewhat important because it warns farmers to cover their veggies up before it gets so cold here.

Video Game

Recently Google+ has decided to have a feature where you can play games online. I think that they can get users to play their games but I don't think it will be nearly as popular as Facebook's game selection. For one I think it would be generic, like having an MP3 player instead of an Ipod. I don't really see the need for Google to try to make more money considering they already make millions.
