Bike Swarms 
I don't know how this got in the news but does not make a lot of seance like how is this going to help people and how does this truly affect people if people want to drive there motor bikes and four wheeler's  around  town I really don't see a problem with it. 

Movie Massacre 
Do I think he did something wrong yes. But I do think that it is unfair that they are taking so long to get the trial going if they are going to trial him it should be be over a year latter that they are finally getting around to it.

after a vary ruff year for the secret service with people jumping the fence and getting all the way in to the white house in one incident. Four of the top secret service officials are out of the post but this does not mean that they have to leave he service. If they would like they could just be demoted in to a less of an important role. Along with the Four the head of the secret service fired and was replaced by Joe Clancy the former head of Obama's protective division.

Important fact to the story.
1. The 4 officials that are being replaced are responsible for investigations, technology, protections and public affairs
2. They could still technically stay with the Secret Service
3. The secret services are reasonable for the man armed with a small knife made it through the North Portico door and into the White House residence.

These facts are important because it shows that they were not doing their job right and that they deserve punishment. The most important facts in this article is that they are reasonable for a  man armed with a small knife made it through the North Portico door and into the White House residence. Like that should never happened weather the president is home or not. And another fact is that they could stay in the service. I’m shocked by this because I would think why would you want them still on that team because if they could not handle that job why would you want them doing it at all.

This article is not really biased its more just telling us what is happening with this scandal. But overall I really liked the article and thought it had good information with all the facts about the scandals and what these officials did wrong to let this happen.

Indianapolis Colts linebacker Josh McNary charged with rape
By Steve Almasy and Susan Candiotti
 Thu January 15, 2015
CNN

The Indianapolis Colt backup linebacker was charged with felony rape. When he raped a 29 year old woman on the evening of December 1.  They meat when they were at a bar earlier that day.  As she left the apartment she took this man’s phone. She went to the police with burses and cuts on her face and gave them the phone she took from the apartment. Linking the phone with Josh McNary.

Important facts.
1.       Josh McNary served in the military from 2011 to 2013.
2.       The National Football League said the matter is "under review."
3.       The woman scratched him on the face, neck, back and shoulder.

These facts are important to the story because it shows us what McNary’s background is and what the NFL is doing about it. One of the important facts is that the woman told police that she scratched him on his face, neck, back and shoulder areas. This helped them when they examined McNary’s body for any sings of scratching. Another important fact is that she took his phone when she left the apartment. It helped the police figure out who did this in a short amount of time.

This article is biased in a way that they did not right it to make it sound like he was innocent. They wrought it like he’s going for jail for a long time and there is nothing he can do about it. My thoughts on this article is that I’m glad they caught him and did not have to waist a lot of time on this case.

Secret Service
I think that this is a good thing because the president should be safe and with people jumping the fence and shooting at the white house it does not seem that he is as safe as he should be. With them having strippers coming up to their rooms when they were overseas. Top 4 of the secret service leaders are being replaced and getting new blood.
Air Asia

They found the body of the plain finally after looking they found it over 2 miles away from where the tail was. They plan on bringing it up along with the body’s that are believed to be in that part of the plain. I think that this is a good thing it will be good for the family that still don’t have their loved ones back and get to have a proper funeral for they family member.

Google Translate App Becomes Real-Time Interpreter
By ALYSSA NEWCOMB
Jan 14, 2015,
ABC news

Google has made an app that will allow you to talk to someone in two different languages. When you start the conversation you will put in the two different languages you want to use and then it will do the rest. Creating the conversation more fluent for both sides of the conversation.
Interesting Facts in the story

1.       Google Created an app to speak in two different languages in one conversation
2.       There are over 7 languages you can talk in
3.       They are making something similar for skype

These facts are important to the story because they show the key points in the story and let us know about what they have created. The most important facts are that this app is made by google and not a bigger cooperation that makes apps such as Apple or Microsoft. Another fact is that they added 7 languages right off the bat. I would understand maybe 3 or 4 just to try it out but I’m surprised that they did all the work to add 7 languages.


 This article is not bias just an informational article. The article is just truly to let the consumer know what they are working on and what new stuff is coming their way.  My thought on this is that it’s interesting and a cool idea to do something like that. There is nothing like this out on the market and I think it is a really good idea.  It will allow the average person to be able to talk to anyone on the planet in a smooth and fluent conversation.

CNN

Jamal Rutledge was arrested on probation violation and other felony charges back in September. When he was waiting to be booked and for Officer Franklin Foulks to finish his paperwork officer Foulks went down. Once Jamal saw the officer on the ground after his heart attack he got up and started yelling for help and making noise to get the attention of the other officers. After the officer got in the room they started CPR and called an EMT.

Facts in this story
    .          He had a heart attack
2        .       Jamal was a regular
3        .       It was in Fort Lauderdale, Florida

One important point in this story is the Jamal is a regular there and he knew the officer. Like if he was like the first time he might have not cared of even felt like he should have helped. The second one is that it is in Florida and Florida is the arm pit of America.


This article has no bias in this story it is a feel good story that even though there in the hammer they can still be good people. My thoughts on this is that it’s good that someone was there for that officer and did something about it.

Today was a good day for the news with the college football playoffs, all the way to bombs on air planes. I think that there were a lot of good feel story today with the dog riding on the bus in Seattle, the gas price, and the story about the Ohio State quarter back. Just lots of good stories today.
