Active

Athletics are becoming more apart of childrens lives. More girls than boys. There have been a record number of girls playing sports nowadays. The standards show its a 1 in 3 difference. But there's a downside. Although girls' participation in organized sports is on the rise, the number of girls staying physically active outside this arena is declining. Both boys and girls face barriers to being physically active, but for girls the challenges are more numerous and complex.

Food on the run

Despite countless warnings in the past years the world economy has hit hard. Wheat corn and rice prices have really gone up. They have more than doubled in the past two years. Economic growth may stop if this all continues to be a problem along with rising oil costs and soaring energy costs. So what are we all to do just sit back and let this all just happen? We really need to do something about this because I know I dont want to have to pay something as outrageous as five dollars for just a loaf of bread.

On the rocks

It is becoming more and more popular for people to make their own brew of a sort rather than going to the breweries themselves but one of the best places to go for a good clear taste is Denver. This is a place with 46 breweries which only produce the drink for their own bars but the biggest one from all around town is the coors breweries. Denver was dubbed the Napa of brews and is the most tourist friendly. There are many other great breweries in the US and all of the world but many of the greatest can be found in Denver. So where else you wat to go?

General meets his match

Senators seemed to be quiet on top of Petraeus and Crocker. If things were going so smoothly over in Iraq then why were they sio reluctant to come home? The senator that was so on top of the two was senator himself Barack Obama. He bombed them with a quiet impressive number of artful questions. He asked two main questions one of which is what we should rather do to sustain the fighting in aIraq and another to why is Iran such a threat to Iraq and yet the leaders get greated with such ease? So what are we really doing over there just fighting or playing little mind games between one another?
