What's better the Xbox 720 or PS4

Xbox 720 or PS4: Which system is better?
By: Cody Vergara







There has been talk of Microsoft and Sony making new gaming system for years now and I'm trying to find out if the Xbox 720 or PS4 is better. The writer of this article prefers Sony over Microsoft because of Sony many games PlayStation has to offer and also include the best graphics and effects.
The author of this article is a user of both gaming systems so it's his opinion to think that Sony is better than Microsoft. Both systems will have Blu-Ray players, more memory space, cameras, and new ways to share gameplay on popular social media. I'm a user of the Xbox 360 slim and I don't see anything, but minor issues with it. I can't really say the Xbox is better than PS3 because I never played on a PS3. I always thought because you have to pay to play on the Xbox 360 online servers it had to be better, but other people think otherwise.
To me I might tryout the PS4 before I tryout the Xbox 270 just because I played Xbox for 4 years. I don't if I like the fact the online is free, PS4 gets later release dates then Xbox does by like a month. So my friends who play Xbox will have a head start on play online games. I have heard so many rumors about PS3 having bad sever and not having party chats. I have found out that they don't currently have party chat. So that’s one reason for why I'm questioning about joining with Sony. Before this I thought I would always be an Xbox player over a PlayStation player, but now I might make the change.
I'm a teen and they're plenty of teenagers that are thinking about making the change like me. If I do go to PS4 I will let all of my friends know how good or bad PS4 is. This year will set of a change of who will take the lead of the gaming world. I can't wait to tryout the new systems.

Singer Not acknowledged for the Harlem Shake

Surprise Hit Was a Shock for Artists Heard on It

by JAMES C. McKINLY Jr.



The Harlem shake has become a craze once again. With the NBA players and Americans around the world dancing to the song. Hector Delgado who sung in "Harlem Shake," was notified by his lawyer Javier Gomez that his voice was clearly heard on the Harlem Shake song.
In my opinion I like the song I think the singer in the song should have been credited. I mean if I were to put together a Youtube phenomenon song I would be made just like him. Baauer has now chosen to go behind both Delgado's and Musson's backs now you've gotten yourself in trouble because now they want regonization and fame you should have gotten for your new hit song. Since you never really had permission from them before so now Mad Decent Records is in trouble you're in trouble and now because of that I'm writing a blog about it.
This article has helped me think about how the real would works. What I mean is you how when you were younger your teacher would tell you to put your name on your work. This in a way is kind of what happened because Hector Gomez isn't know so if he was we would know his voice off the bat; He wouldn't be in this situation. If it was would be hiring the most top notch lawyer to get me my fame.  
 
“Mr. Delgado has yet to take legal action against the Philadelphia producers, whose remix was not a hit. Mr Gomez said. " And now I think that Hector Delgado should haven't used there voices without permission but everyone is blowing outta proportion , he can just split his money with the money he gets on his record, and forget all about it , he's a new artist, so it will take some time for him to really shoot up. Also I would like to add at the end Hector will receive what he deserves andwill get his recognition.

Unexpected Cyber Warfare


CYBERWAR
By Patricia Smith

 
The main idea is that because of this current Cyber War the U.S is in danger because unlike China, Iran is trying to do harm to the U.S they're even trying to build a nuke that we're trying to prevent.


Inside the article Smith states that the U.S are saying Iran can possibly hack into our systems and mess up trains with passengers or even more dangerous trains containing nuclear equipment or uranium. Also it is how discusses how Iran hacked into Saudi Arabia's oil company Saudi Aramco the most important oil company in the world and the company alone is valued at an estimate of $7 trillion and the hackers deleted a lot of important information making more than 30,000 computers useless.

 In my opinion Cyber War is just another way of arguing just through the use of technology. The U.S Government and Israel should upgrade their security systems from getting computer worms from making it so easy to hack who have anything that has to do with nuclear plans, plants, information and that worm took a major toll on the Iranians setting back their ability to create nuclear weapons by several year according to the article.

Cyberwar is one of the top leading causes of trouble in the 21st century. Can you believe are top of the line technology is terrifing to most people. It goes from cyber bullying to id theft next it's going to go from the Internet to real life war.

Valentine's day is changing in Modern day Americans


Historically Incorrect Canoodling
By STEPHANIE COONTZ

Romance is a great and powerful thing like love. Isn't that what marriage is. I think you need to love someone in order to have a strong marriage.

Valentine's Day was created by the Roman Catholic Church to limit on sexual passion. Today marriage has been change from back then. They're so many hurried marriages and divorces. In my eyes marriage has been demoralized and almost makes me not want to be married. Marriage is still a sign of love, unity and trust.

Even though marriage isn't the number one thing on my mind; when I love someone I might marry them. I still feel the same way I felt before about marriage; even after reading this article. Marriage to people today is still one of the number one things to a person's life.

"During the Middle Ages they gradually adopted Valentine as the patron saint of romance - and symbol of its all too frequent tragic ending." For some people in the Middle Ages held marriage as something to great to get from Valentine Day. 

My mother and father were together from the ages 13-30 years old. They got married when my mom was 22 and dad 24 years old. They were happily married, but like almost every other marriage in 21st century they got divorced. This is why I feel is that I don't want to get married. They’re some so many flails in marriage. Having to share half of everything you own I’m not feeling that, but then if you have different bank accounts we both might come to an agreement on that. Even though were both going to give each other money still. Maybe I will change the way I feel about marriage and get married.

Missile Gone Wild in Cuba

.
The Cuban Missile Crisis
 By Anthony Depalma


The Soviet Union had secretly hidden nuclear missiles on Cuba aimed at America. In 1962 President John F. Kennedy let the public know that the Soviet Union was starting a nuclear war. A standoff between the U.S and the Soviet came to a 13-day wait. Kennedy knows if he didn't do something tens of thousands of innocent people would be killed. It would be difficult for Kennedy to remove the bomb without starting a war with the Soviet Union.

During World War II the U.S. and the Soviet Union had been allies. The Soviet Union triggered a change of friendship when they started setting up a Cold War.

President Kennedy handle this situation well by standing up to the Soviet Union. Why, I say this is because if the government didn't keep making nuclear bombs the Soviet Union would have bombed us first.

While the U.S. and Soviet Union were trying to launch a nuclear war U.S. and Soviet Union were trying to launch a nuclear war U.S. families built underground bomb shelters.

This article opened my eyes on how terrified the U.S. and Soviet Union were scared off each other. Why, I say this is because they both wasted so much money into making the bombs and never launched them.

This moment in history should be talked about in World History or Social Studies classes. So that the younger minds of our nation can have an understanding on this nuclear fight between the U.S and Soviet Union
