Nothing but the truth: new ending

Sunday Weekly
Phillip Malloy exposed!
Reporter: Robert Duval
The "patriotic" boy, Phillip Malloy has been exposed of his deeds at last. The boy indeed had cheated the public of their feelings. From an interview with Miss Margaret Narwin, the teacher revealed that what she did was just to go with the school rules to remain silent when the National Anthem is played. It was Phillip Malloy's deficiency to listen to Miss Narwin's instructions that made the teacher have no other choice but to ask Phillip Malloy to go out of the classroom.
After interviewing Phillip Malloy, he finally admited that he hummed, not sing in the national anthem. He also admitted that he did not know the lyrics to the National Anthem. His previous lies had caused Miss Narwin to resign.
Phillip Malloy has also caused his school to be unble to get the school budget and caused the school much trouble. Ted Griffin commented that Phillip Malloy said that Miss Narwin was unpopular, leading to him saying the false facts of Miss Narwin. According to most students, they thought Miss Narwin was fair and Phillip was been unfair to Miss Narwin.
When Phillip was an unpopular boy with his classmates, he transferred school to Washington academy which he now still studies in. The Harrison School has sent a letter of apology to Miss Narwin and requested for her to return to school to teach which she rejected.
But even now, some people still argue that Phillip was not in the wrong. He just hummed to the tune of the 'Star-Spangled Banner' and was suspended. But what really is the truth? That, we may never find out.

Review on MapleStory the PC game

As many students would know Maplestory is a role-playing game which is played by many all over the world. There are many versions of MapleStory. One of them is MapleSEA which network covers South-East-Asia. In my opinion, the reason why so many people are addicted to this game is because the more we play, the more powerful our character gets which lets the player feel powerful too. Its kind of like dangling a carrot in front of a donkey. The true aim we will never achieve. Even the highest level player,level 200, still plays the game to compete in fame, fortune and skill.That is one of the reasons why so many people are playing:the game never ends. Lots of people are so addicted, they spend lots of money to buy in-game equipments to make them richer or more "cool". I too play the game but is currently far from reaching level 200. But I am still not desperate as to spend hard-earned money on a never-ending game. I actually found the game fun with me having characters in the second part: Halfway to completing the four parts.

Blog prompt>>>>

Q: Imagine your group has just invented an electronic device that helps other students learn better in the classroom. Write a short press release that describes this new device and explain how it will promote learning

New electronic device to improve learning invented!
My group of researchers has just invented a new device to help students learn better in the classroom,the Learnobot! The Learnobot is a handy device which is programmed with education notes and linked to the teacher's computer. The Learnobot can also record the voice of the teacher in case the student is day-dreaming and teachers can also post revision notes onto the Learnobot. During class, this device can be the 'ears' of a pupil with the voice recorder and the student can come empty-handed to school with only the Learnobot, helping pupils rid of the textbook-bursting bag. Even the worksheets can be transferrsd directly to the student's Learnobots and submitted to the teacher wirelessly.

I hope from my speech, you would stop this doing to protect the rights of farmers, letting them be able to feed their family,and live a stable live. Please stop to think of the farmers.
