              (article 1)BRAC: Job growth in 2012
The Baton Rouge Area Chamber (BRAC) predicts that there will be job growth in the Baton Rouge area next year.  They  think Baton Rouge is coming out of the recession.  The article says that our city  could have up to 6,200 new jobs in 2012.  The jobs will be in education and health care.  The city will also get jobs in construction and other areas. Lots of people in Baton Rouge need jobs.

       (article 2) Jackman's 'Real Steel' is scrap metal  
David Germain gives a bad review about Real Steel. But I disagree with him.  He says that the movie has good directors and producers but does not have a good story.  He think that a movie about fighting robots is a bad idea.  The movie is also about a man who is a loser in robot boxing who has to be a farther to his son.  I saw the movie with my famliy.  I thought the story was great. A robot who was thrown away works hard and becomes a champion. The boy and his father become closer.   

      (artticle 3) Nutt has "awesome respect" for No. 1 LSU
Houston Nutt  is  the coach for Ole Miss.  He was interviewed before his game with number one ranked LSU.  Nutt said that he admired the lsu coaching staff. Coach Nutt was be fired by Ole Miss.  He will still coach the last three games. His team has a record of two wins and eight losses.  He had to suspend two players before the game.  I not think they will win the game.  Coach  Nutt shows good sportmanship by saying good thing about LSU.

Blog Assignment #19/Lion's Cub Articles


                           Professional Sports        

The football game with LSU vs. Alabama was the coolest college football game in history. Two teams against each other all wins no loses but after that game LSU showed Alabama that they are the team that wanted to win every game. Some people say that the game was “The game of the Century.” They are right it was the game of the century they have play against each other before but these one was best game they ever had. I hope they will have a great game against each other next year like they did this year like they do every year but like I said before LSU wanted to win every games this year and I hope they go to the Championship game this year and win who they have to play against in that game so that is all I have to say and don’t forget Go Tigers!

  David, age 14, and Steven, age 13, recently smuggled Bibles into China. Before the trip, the American teenagers were coached by an experienced smuggler who was joining them on the trip. David and Steven packed Bibles in backpacks that they carried on their backs. David made sure to pack some children’s Bibles for Chinese children. The boys carried their travel supplies in other bags. They hoped the officials in China would not search their backpacks, and they prayed for the success of their trip. “What happens if they catch one of us?” David and Steven asked their coach. “Let the authorities take the Bibles,” the coach answered. “That may distract the guards and allow the other smugglers to get in with their Bibles. Then you can meet each other at a pre-planned location later.”David and Steven arrived in China, and the time came for them to walk past the inspectors at the airport. “I wondered if they might shoot me or put me in jail,” said Steven. “They had guns.”Suddenly the officials pulled Steven out of the line, saying he was sick and they needed to take his temperature. “I knew he wasn’t sick,” said David. “I was afraid they found out he had Bibles.”“It made me nervous,” said Steven. The officials let Steven go after taking his temperature. The boys agreed that the scariest part of the trip was putting their travel bags on the scanner for the inspectors at the airport. But they made it through! The smugglers walked to a place where they had planned to meet a Chinese Christian. They met the Christian and then took a bus to a secret apartment. The Bibles would be stored at the apartment until they could be delivered to Christians who needed them. “The hardest part was walking up six stories to the apartment with our bags and not making any noise,” said David. “I got really sweaty and tired and out of breath. “It’s really stressful to smuggle Bibles. But I was thinking of the children who would get the Bibles.”

The Princess and the Frog
       Today I’m going to tell you about the black story of “The Princess and the Frog.” The story
started off at night in the wonderful city of New Orleans and we will see a huge house and will
see one woman and two little girls. One of the little girl name was Tia but a few years later she is
nineteen year girl with two jobs. When she was little she wanted to have her own restaurant. So
that is why she was working two jobs one of her jobs is being a waitress the other is being
aspiring chef. So as you can see she is a hard working woman. One day one of Tia’s friends
named Lottie and Lottie’s farther named Eli “Big Daddy” heard that Prince Naveen of Maldonia
was coming to New Orleans with his valet named Lawrence. Big Daddy let the prince stay will
with for a few days. They were having a party and Lottie needed Tia to make over 5,000 beignets
for the party. Lottie gave Tia enough money to get the place where she was going to build her
restaurant. Everything was going great but when Prince Naveen and Lawrence came to Orleans
they ran into the evil Doctor Facilier also named the “Shadow Man” he turned Naveen into a
frog. Lawrence was turned into the Prince. So when Tia kissed him she also turned into a frog.
They were both lost in the swamp were they meet an alligator named Louis. He had a drama to
play with the big boys. Tia told Louis that Naveen was turned into a frog and she did to. Then
Louis started to talk about Mama Odie. They asked him if he can take us to her to change them
back he’s glad to. They also meet a fly named Ray. Ray helped them by giving the right way to
go because Louis went the wrong way. They got to Mama Oldie’s home and she said that Lottie
had to kiss Naveen before midnight they would turns back into humans. So all of them got back
to New Orleans Tia killed the shadow man but before he was killed he killed ray. Ray died but
he was with the one he loved named Evangeline. Tia and Naveen were going stay frogs that
night. In the morning they got married they also turned back into humans. Tia got the restaurant
they got married and lived happy every after the end.
