Oprah. The most influential women ever?

     I think that people have influence in many different ways. Oprah has reached out to many different groups of people and I have met a lot of fans of her's. I think it is at least within reason to say that she is the most influential women on the the planet due to the amount of people that have exposhure to her.

THE END!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

     The idea of the end of the world has been a common topic of discussion resently. Most of the time the theories involve some kind of relation to religion. Sence I am personaly not spiritual so any threat of the world due to some time relation to a bible story goes right over my head (not the many religons people believe this crap). I think that people want to feel important by claming that they know when the "end of the world" is so they come up with stupid stories about the end.

New inventions.

     Journalism has really gotten quicker through the years due to E-mail, but there is something even more resent that has helped journalism. The invention of the smart phone has really sped up news flow. For example when Bin Laden died almost every fan knew about this within about five minutes. The new phones have the ability to go on the internet and email so the news you post can get out faster than ever before.

Think before you post?

     If you have many readers you could potentially be very influentional. As a journalist you have a lot a responsibility. If you tell lies or throw people in the wrong way YOU are the reason for it. You don't want negitive effects just because you didn't think about what you where posting.   

Louis Braille

     Braille at 3 years old was blinded (partialy by a neetle to the eye, but then an infection spred to the other eye). In 1819 he went to Paris to go to the National Institute for Blind Children. He went on to teach there for many years. Braille is really just a simpified version of a earlier form of writting (blind Writting) invented by Charies Barbier.   He died in 1852 two days after his 43rd birthday.

Bin Laden pictures being sent out.

     I do not think that Obama should not release the photos to the public. Not only is this not important, but this could be potentially dangerous. The image could be used as a recruting tool for terrorists. The new leaders will come up with a way of turning the photo against us.

Bin Laden's death to be celebrated?

     I personally think this is a positive mark in history. I personally have met family members of people who died on 9/11 and the damage is tremedous. The man who caused all of this has been killed so Americans have every right to be happy. Bin Laden was exactly what people clamed him to be: a terrorist.
     The damage he has caused is unfixable, but getting rid of the man responsible  is certaintly a start.
