Thunder vs. who ?

Who do you think the OKC Thunder will play in the finals they already secured a spot. They are a very athletic and young team just like the Miami Heat but this would make it a good match up, but Heat's ECF opponent the Celtics are the very opposite they like to keep the tempo slow and at their pace.

Heat has a great defensive strategy but I think OKC has an even greater offensive strategy so this would be even more of an exciting game. I like the Celtics over the Heat to participate in the NBA finals, last night the Heat won at the Celtics garden this was a great victory for them, Lebron James totally took over he scored 45 points and grabbed 15 boards. He put in an amazing effort for his team t win it all.

Most of the heat were not involved like star player Dwayne Wade he needs to step up if he wants the Miami Heat to win the finals or even game seven, because I know Rajon Rondo, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett will bring theirs.  I still choose Boston over Miami to increase to the finals because I believe Rajon Rondo is the most dominate point guard in the NBA, and their whole team plays their role better than the Miami heat works as a team.

television POV.

As I read an article by Jon Caramanica tilted Broadcasting a World of Whiteness, I began to notice that the article was very interesting because people had lots of opinions on whether there is too much white entertainment broadcasting other than blacks being shown on television. The article was mainly about opinions of those who act or watch shows frequently. Also I agree with most of them T.V should be way more diverse then it already is, T.V is not only whites but other races are definitely not as popular as whites are.  
I really don't know why network television doesn't broadcast that many shows with diverse cast. This shouldn't really be a huge deal but it should be spoke upon. People blow things out of proportion if someone can’t fit a certain role as actor then no one should complain! I think all people who are chosen for roles on T.V are there for a reason. This was a great thing to chat about in general just to see how people felt about the things they watch or here about. When someone describes a T.V show they usually explain the characters role on the show and don't give out their race the listener just catches on. I just enjoys the shows no matters who the cast I like shows for how much information they provide.

Gun Fashion!

I read an article about gun fashion the old clothing line Woolrich has came out with something new, they feel as though more people are rapidly getting licensed to carry a gun. This is an advantage from their prospective this gives them more of a spin on the clothing industry; they designed chinos that have certain accessories for hiding and concealing a weapon. They added an additional pocket from the pocket that already existed to conceal a weapon. This company has been around for about 182 years so starting a trend is exactly what this company wants to do to stay alive in this fashion industry.
I believe this will be a trendsetter and others clothing will have the same idea but will most

likely be better because they can just build off of flaws by Woolrich. Yes Americans should be allowed to carry guns there is so much crime in the streets people have to protect themselves, I believe gun laws are just right people could illegally get their hands on a gun if they wanted so there really should be no problem with how strict laws are.
I truly don’t know whether it would be less or more crimes if more people got guns because some people would you them for the right reasons and others would misuse them. My overall opinion on this situation is that the pants will become renowned but will also have some downfalls in their creation, because some people would try to misuse their creation.

Parkway's Heatlh Fair Teaches.


The other day I listened to two students, present their student projects on abortion. They both did a good presentation from my prospective. They got straight to the point of what they believed about abortion and they backed they're words up with facts. I found out from the students Shayira Framer and Sierra Blagmon that since 1973 50,000,000 unborn babies have been lost to abortion. Also 3,300 babies’ lives are taken by abortion. That’s 137 babies’ lives taken per hour. Also we had an entire health fair, student Datwon Hester did his on saying no to drugs and saying yes to sports this was a great topic in my opinion because I’m not involved with drugs but I like to play sports. Also others did things at the health fair that I wasn’t that into. My favorite part of the health fair was mainly the abortion part; because I got the most detail from that topic also I enjoy being taught on human body and life. Also 37.4% of abortions in the United States are performed on African American women, while they only represent 13% of the female population in the country. I also believe that 1.5 Americans want to adopt a child. So no child should be killed due to abortion. All should have a place to go in a time of need. Hospitals and orphanages offer children to stay so why should they be could on instead of being adopted or being taken care of while the parent regains life.

Tray Martin's Death.


Teen Trayvon Martin's Death is a rising trend in the news I read an article about this escalating topic of an innocent teen being gunned down by a neighborhood watchmen. He did this in the act of being frightened he approached Trayvon asking what are you doing around here, Trayvon replied why are you following me and they seemed to get in a tussle and pow gunshots were fired and Trayvon was dead. This seems like an interesting story that grabs a lot of attention because the shooter was not arrested due to a Florida law, which those who feel threatened are allowed to shoot. But the shooter George Zimmerman had called enforcements and they were on their way. Zimmerman decided to takes matters into his own hands and follow Martin and then he shot him. This topic gets everybody involved from people with day-to-day lives, NBA teams and even the president! I believe this was a great article, because this is one of the hottest topics out right now, also people really should ponder on this give their deep thoughts on how they feel and was justice served Is a great question to be answered. I pledge that justice was not served to its highest extent but, it not over so I can’t quite voice my full opinion on the subject yet. But from what has been established I can say that further details will happen to come to play also others will get more involved to spread their word.

Charles Duhigg and David Barboza wrote an excellent article In China, Human Costs Are Built Into an iPad, this article was to inform us a about a terrible thriving facility. This sounds crazy right? To me it does this article is a must read if you into Apple products, this make change your mind about then and there very popular products, such as iPad, iPod, and Mac book laptops and etc. They are great researchers from my prospective, they come up with lots of evidence to back up their opinions they say people are brutally injured and yes people are injured, one victim red and black replaced his mouth and nose. All of this has happened because this amazing company that produces the biggest names products as fast as possible had a major safety issue also horrific law issues, this place basically a modern society sweat shop. Those underage worked longs tiring shifts just as the adults worked, workers argued they stood and work machines till they could feel their knees and their knees would become swollen and they could barely walk, and this all happened in hazardous conditions. Also they had to work excessive overtime maybe even seven days a week and they lived in overcrowded dorms with other workers. I believe this is wrong, for all of those who have put through this torture from the children to adults who have had to work, this is basically a crime and this is running a thriving illegal business that should be put to an end.

Trade Deadline Madness






As I scan nba.com's website i see a highly read popular article
The purpose was to inform all NBA fans about one of the biggest names being traded and more juicy names involving the trade deadline, the Warriors and bucks have comitted to a five player trade involving one of the most dominate SG in the leauge Monta Ellis and other players Ekpe Udoh and center Kwame Brown to Milwaukee for center Andrew Bogut and guard Stephen Jackson.

This Trade Provides both teams with great players, but i believe Milwaukee has te upper hand in this situation because they, have to rising stars including Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis, having a Point Guard that can give you 19 points a night and 5 assist and 4 rebounds isn't bad, Also when you add Monta Who gives you 21 points 4 rebounds and 6 assist its not that much more you need than other players who contribute on the defensive and offensive side. But the Warriors haven't gone out that easy, they have developed some size and that's what they have been needing Stephen Jackson is a geat back court scorer and Andrew Bogut has a legitment rebound game.

i believe it was a good trade either way they both picked up great players but i still think Milwaukee has a slight edge over the warriors because of the youth and scoring abilities. This trade wil most likely change both franchises for good or worst i truly don't know.
