Being a great fan of Dr.A.P.J. Abdul Kalam I’ve always been inspired by him. I’m one of those lucky ones who had the golden opportunity to meet him in person when I was in 9th grade.

The problem is that Findlay is getting more rain than the Blanchard River can hold water‚ which is making the city of Findlay flood. In my opinion we have a couple of choices of ways to get around ruining our homes and lives‚ which would be corralling the rain to different location‚ creating more reservoirs‚ and probably

Save the tigers Someday‚ we may never see tigers again because tigers are on the critically endangered list‚ which is why the National Zoo was celebrating Global Tiger Day. This is happening because of poaching and habitat changes. Large plantations have replaced a lot of tiger habitat in several tropical range countries.

In the name of GOD The topic is about disabled people‚ who are not able to see‚ hear or something like that.

Sometimes we keep our difference from them or even trying to don’t see them. We think they are poor and disable and perhaps stupid just because of their features‚ but what is the truth ? Are they miserable and do they need our pity? Last week I saw a
