Today's paper was MUCH more readable then yesterday's. I know paper's have their slow days, but there's nothing worse then reading the paper with no good stories.
I thought the lead for the immigrant story was absolutely amazing. Even though it wasn't a summary lead, the reader knew what was going on, and could feel the fear without actually being there. The story itself is very sad though. The United States needs to figure out the immigrant situation, and fast. I don't take sides in this argument since I don't know much about what's going on, but I do know that this issue has plagued our country long enough.
I was also shocked to read that the contraceptive used in Africa doubles a woman's risk of obtaining HIV. Science and medicine are scary things; they could help one moment and the next they could be fatal. I'm glad I'm not involved with things like that.
The murder case in Italy from 2007 completely escaped my mind until I read the article about it. I never thought that Amanda Knox murdered the victim, but it is still a very sketchy situation. But imagine having four years of your life taken away in a foreign country. I can't imagine anything worse.
As a big technology junkie, I thought the story about Apple was very interesting. I knew that Android phones were always competing with Apple, but I never knew that they were catching up to the iPhone. However, I don't think they are. I personally own an Android device, and I think the iPhone is a much better piece of technology, and a lot of people I have talked to agree with me. I don't think Apple has much to worry about, especially since the new iPhone 4S was just announced today (which is a pretty cool new phone).
