Semester 2, Blog 4

This article is inspiring because it has information about a big issue, and even though it touches up only a little on the issue, it creates big thoughts for the reader. It also implies that some action needs to be taken (such as not purchasing Apple products regularly or keeping an eye on Apple in case something else environmentally un-friendly occurs.) This is also a reminder of how society is degrading the environment with industry.

This article talks about school bullying and how it doesn't follow the stereotypical rule of 'Bully picking on the Nerd'. It talks about more of the social hierarchy in schools and how bullying can occur between rival students. It also concludes quotes from professionals on the subject (which I think is good for structure and perspective).

This article is about whether or not surgery should be done for OCD patients and patients of other psychological diseases. It includes both pro point of view and con point of view. Supplying both sides gives the ready a better understanding of the situation (although there is always support for a certain side later on in pro/con articles)
