Currently there are riots and protests occurring in Baltimore- involving torching a pharmacy, setting police cars on fire and throwing objects like bricks. The man who suffered a severe spinal injury and passed away in police custody sparked these riots.

4. What is Girlstart? Page D1 "Girlstart keeps growing"
Girlstart is an organization that promotes STEM for young girls (fourth-eighth graders).
5. Kim Kardashian...whatever...blah blah blah...Why is this woman still in the news? Okay, seriously, what do you think about Bruce Jenner? Do you really care? Does it really matter? Page D2 "Kardashian..."
I don't think of these people at all actually. Let them be and do whatever, who cares! These sort of things like coming out are occurring more frequently so why is this suddenly SO abrupt and startling? It's because its a Jenner. I'm still unsure what the hype is about this family but I do know its a waste of time to obsess over. This does help the trans community in a way but… I'm not sure we should promote though the Kardashians/Jenners. Besides that, I'm just the type of person to let everyone be. I've always thought "You do what you want to do, I'll do what I want to do," and LET IT BE. There's no reason to create such a hype about this. There are more important things to be discussing and reporting- Nepal? Baltimore? I think these are more evident news reportings besides Bruce coming out- even though it is very much a brave thing! I just don't believe in raising these people on pedestals while there are people suffering...
Short Answer: Nepal....what a tragedy. Read the story on page A3 "Nepalese.."
Write at least 2 paragraphs in reaction to the event.
Oh my God. It's a devastating event that has been occupying my mind since the news broke out. These poor people are in utter fear, suffering trauma, grief, and hopelessness. We need to help these survivors and get them through such a disaster. And it's a terrible feeling, being all across the world and not knowing how to help. It hurts me to see people living in a nightmare.
I have no clue what they are going through because I can't imagine the things they've seen and experienced over the past few days. It's heartbreaking… but we should definitely do something to help.
