Illegal Immigrants Struggle to Receive Pay Back

Before reading this article, I had a sense that by the title it will be about Illegal immigrats being treated unfairly especially when it comes down to their salaries after having done the required job. after reading this article my predicition was right. The article talked specifically about how employers do not pay their employee's like in these case with Ramon Hernandez. I feel its unfair how some employers take advantage of illegal immigrants. I myself know cases like this one of where adveantages are taken and think since they don't know the language they can't do anything about their rights and if they do they threaten them by saying they will call immigration on them. It disgusts me how people do that to these poor people, that the only thing they are trying to do its make money to feed their families back in their countries.

THe Beautiful Laughing Sisters- An Arrival Story

Before reading this article, I know that it would talk about two sister. The title itself does not give much information. After having read the article, it was nothing of what I expected to be. The article was much more thatn what the title gives. At first I was not quite intrested in reading the article, I thought that it was quite boring. Though it was much more, the article was a touching article and it was sad knowing wha these girls had to go through. i do beilieve you can learn a lot from the bad and good events that happen in your life. You do become a stronger person and try to not let anything get on your way of your goals. It's hard imagining how tough it was for these girls and yet survived through the harsh moments at the cells. i liked the article and it it true, you can't judge a book by its cover.

Before reading this article I knew that a flood had happen in India, but it seems like it is a very serious situation. I wonder what it will happen now to those poor people?Iwll there be any help send? After reading this article I found out that more than five hundred and thirthy one thousand have been evacuated. to safety. It seems that some help has arrived, yet people are still suffering. The rain has eased but still the damage is extreme. One question I have is whether this has anything to do with Global Warming? Now according to the disaster- management division more than one thousand one hundred have been killed in monsoon. Monsoon is a wind-system that influences large climatic regions and reerses direction seasonally,esp. the Asiatic system producing dry and wet seasons in India and South Asia
