No End in Sight for North Korea
The Pentagon flew two B-2 bomber planes near North Korea. The planes did not attack the country. The deployment of the planes was merely a demonstration to North Korea as well as the allies of the United States, assuring everyone that "we [the U.S.] can bring force from anywhere..."

This Weekend
This has been a draining weekend. It all started Friday night. I left my best friend's house to come home. When I arrived, I was greeted by my sister. Seeing her was fine, except she's like a kitten. She likes to play...a lot. Saturday morning we decided to go to the mall. We caught the train out Wheaton, but they were doing track work on the red line so it took forever. We left the house at 10:30 but stepped foot in the mall at 12:30. My main mission of the day was to purchase the new Jordan's that came out (the 13s), but no store had them in my size. I went to 6 different stores. I couldn't even buy any clothes because I didn't have any shoes to match what I wanted. Not getting the 13s ruined my entire day. I became antisocial, and drifted off from the others. When I finally chose another shoe to buy, DTLR didn't have them in my size either. I felt crushed. I gave up all together. After walking through Wheaton for 8 hours, I decided to leave. It was about 11 when I got home.

I Cannot Deal
A lot has been going on lately. My father had a heart attack last week. I was accepted into Xavier University. And my friend has been the most random mood swings ever. The mood swings are what bothers me the most.
Everything could be going well. My friend and I could be laughing and talking all day. Then all of a sudden, he gets mad. It's almost always over nothing, but he never sees it like that. He will be mad all day and all night over the littlest, tiniest, smallest thing. What makes it worse is when I ask him what's wrong. That is another argument within itself.
We go through this at least twice a week. I don't know why or how it even starts, but it happens. At times I want to leave everything where it is and walk away, but I can't. Despite the arguing, we're usually happy together. When we are good, it's amazing. But any other time, we're at war. I understand that arguing or disagreeing is a part of all relationships and friendships. I just wish it didn't happen as often.

Are Modeling Sites Leading To Abductions?
When Raven Furlong's aunt discovered her niece's profile on Model Mayhem, she was disturbed. The aunt told reporters "the photographers [were] asking her to do nude photographers after asking her if she was 18 and her telling them no."
Jillian Mourning (professional model), age 25, also used Model Mayhem. While in Arizona for a photo shoot, she was sexually assaulted. She said that she was videotaped while being raped. Mourning was also trafficked and forced to have sex with men until her "manager" went to prison.
