SUMMARY
In Las Vegas, Nevada a girl around the age of 10-12 was found safe and well after being featured in a pornographic movie not as a sexual show though. Another young girl around the age of 4 or 5 was the victim of the movie which was somehow released. The younger girl still has not been found and police fear she is still being abused. Fortunately, the older girl was not sexually abused . The accused man is Darren Tuck. He has been released without bail and authorities are still looking for another man shown in the film.


OPINION
Eww. Why would any grown man rape anyone ever but especially a child? The prosecuted man lived near Vegas just go buy a prostitute -- in Las Vegas that is not illegal unlike raping a child. I would guess that if the youngest girl has not been found she is most likely dead. That is the too typical devestating outcome of stories like this one.

SUMMARY
Hugo Chavez, the President of Venezuela, will no be attending the U.N. General assembly this week where last year he called Bush "the devil". He also congratulates Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for facing such "tough questions" at Columbia University. He was unable to attend the debate.

OPINION
This article is proof that allowing foreign ideas that oppose America to be said in America only strengthen the week and the followers of the speaker. The questions were not very well answered. I am just fine with Chavez not attending although he is sending someone in his place which is sad. I would feel better if the country was not represented at all by people that support a man who would call anyone but satan "the devil".

SUMMARY
The Magna Carta is being auctioned off for the first time. Ross Perdot originally bought the piece that will be auctioned in 1984. He will now sell the piece from between 20 million to 30 million dollares and spread the funds throughout his business and other organizations. This version is the earliest version of the Magna Carta.

OPINION
I am excited to see what or who will buy this document. The document is so well known that many people with enough wealth will probably be vying for the highest bid. I think that selling the Carta is a good idea because people are now thinking of what the document states and currently that is a topic being discussed all across the world.

SUMMARY
The southeast country previously known as Burma is cracking down on anti-government demonstrations. The country's police hav ebeaten several monks and killed a university student. A crowd of about 2,000 people put about ten monks in front of them as protection but the military men did not care. A Japanese reporter was among the count of people killed.


OPINION
I thought monks were part of asian society and revered how could they be beaten so badly then? The world is clearly going crazy. America is so lucky. When we have protests we do not have to fear ruthless battery or consequences even similar to this. what happened is a shame but the people probably knew their lives were at risk.
