I was sitting in my 10th grade Chemistry class on September 11th of 2001. I remember my teacher, Mr. Sufka telling us what had happened. We were able to see some images from Yahoo, but the internet was overwhelmed that day and our schools TVs were unfortunately down for repair. We discussed what happened and what could happen next. We all knew we were going to war. This weighed heavily with Mr. Sufka who was an Army Reservist, as well as one of our best teachers.

Franken becoming Dems Future Leader?
Posted on November 09, 2010.
Sen. Franken has faced a daunting challenge in his first year as a US Senator. He barely won a highly contested and much publicized election with Norm Coleman and is part of a party/movement that is losing momentum rather quickly. Franken has also had to overcome a number of other obstacles. Many people (Republicans) have argued that Franken is unfit to be a Senator because of his previous employment in Hollywood and on Air America as a Radio commentator.

Posted on September 06, 2010.

USA Marijuana for Profit.
Posted on August 30, 2010.
It is obvious to many people that our nation is undergoing a change and we are trying to do so at a time of unparalleled debt. This can be a tricky thing to do. How can one manage the budget, fight multiple wars and have socially progressive programs? This seems like a recipe for disaster, bankruptcy and possibly far worse.

Tea Party Fear and Hate.
Posted on August 27, 2010.
Everyday I get more and more befuddled by the mess that we call the news. I am shocked to see so many people attack science, intellectualism and education. I am shocked to see so many people cling to pre-modern beliefs that are bad ideas. I am not talking about beliefs such as religion or morality; those are for individuals to choose on their own.
