natural disaster

This week I read an article about a asteroid that could potenially cause a natural disaster for earth. In the article, an austrailian who was looking out a very large telescope discovered asteroid DD45 flying 38,000 miles from earth. That may sound like fairly large distance, but this asteroid is 40 yards wide and less the twice the distance earths satelites are at. The australian says this could cause massive damage if it hit earth but lucky it is only something we should be aware of for now. He says this same asteroid circles the sun every 18 months, and will not be a threat until the next century. Even though this asteroid isnt something to worry about it makes me wonder about what other asteroids could be flying towards earth...

this kid out of texas currentlu holds the world record title on guitar hero. His record is some number in the millions and its on the hardest song on the game. But unlike all the other kids who are good at this game, this kid can actually play real guitar. He writes his own music and can play several instruments such as guitar, drums, piano and some others. Basically this kid is a huge nerd because he is home schooled and has no social skills. But he can still beat you in guitar hero.

I read this article where Olympic medalist swimmer Michael Phelps was caught smoking weed out of a bong. He didn't even violate any rules but illegal possesion. One of his sponsors kellog dropped him from their advertising because of this behavior they do not support. the police are debating whether to further investigate into the posession of marajauna. Phelps says he is regretful and will earn the public's trust back. I guess he messed up but he he was just trying to party and have a good time so he's an idiot for getting caught.

In a recent article I read, A man in Texas is suspect to burning his own four kids with acid. Police said they saw the acid rupture in his pick up truck and thats when he left the children at the cafe and fled. He finally turned himself in and said he would never throw acid at anyone. Also said he ran because he was scared. The childrens ages are 4,7,14, and 18. Police say its unclear what he was doing with acid in the truck. All four children are being treated at a hospital but the 7 year old seems to be in the worst shape.

poodle

The owner of the poodle left it in the cold for nearly 20 days at an Quebec airport. The man was found by authorities and ticketed for cruelty to animals. He agree to regain custody and pain for a number of veterinarian bills. The mini poodle, Michou, was discovered in a Vw eurovan and somehow managed to surivive to cold. Local veterinarians say Michous survival was nothing short of a miracle. He lost half his body weight from lack of no food or water while in the van. A man heard the dog howling when he was leaving the parking garage and reported it to the " operation folks", and at this point the pup was saved.

Recently in this article of breaking news, a plane leaving from queen new york engines failed and made an emergency landing in the hudson river. Witnesses saw the plane land in the water and they said " If someone were to land in the river , this would be the best way. It landed very gradial". Everyone on the plane was okay, the pilot management to keep all the passangers and crew safe. When the pilot Sully Sullenberger landed, all the passangers filed out onto either the wings or inflatable wings. The passangers say they saw the plane fly into a flock of birds and the birds could of very well been the cause of the failed engine.
