Salvation-The Greatest Story Ever Told
The Salvation story starts with the creation of the universe. God created man in that universe. Adam and Eve were his two creations. When they disobeyed, they needed salvation. between then and the end, man has been either following God or not. The ones who obeyed needed to get to Heaven.
So God sent his only son, Jesus to earth to save mankind. Jesus was born in Bethlehem. He slept in a manger. First, Jesus preached to the people. Then, He healed the poor or sick. Finally, He died on the cross for our sins. After that, we can all make it to Heaven if we are in Christ Jesus.
And for those who are not, they will be left on the earth after the rapture. Then they must repent to go to Heaven. Those who do not go to hell. Then, the people in Heaven will go to the new earth God will build and stay there for eternity, worshiping God.

Rescue Efforts Continue After Lethal US Storms
More than 60 tornadoes ripped through North Carolina, killing 21, the highest toll for any of the states affected. Governor Beverly Perdue said on the NBC network's Today show that she had never seen anything like the devastation. She said homes in the state had been handled like paper dolls' houses."The good news is that the tornadoes have left and things are brighter today in North Carolina," Ms Perdue said, adding that federal officials were beginning their damage assessments. I believe that all of the US should take extra precautions to be prepared for these types of catastrophies.

At New Orleans Jazz Fest, 'It's All About the Food'
At this Jazz Fest, the chefs plan on serving fourteen thousand crab cakes! That is an abundant amout of crab cakes, enough to feed an army. First, they'll put flour and then an egg wash on each one and cover it with Panco, the airy Japanese bread crumbs that give the spicy dish an extra crunch. Then they'll deep-fry them at 350 degrees for a couple of minutes and serve them with smoked-tomato and jalapeno tartar sauce. Chefs say that they won't be able to look at another crab cake for months!

The Percy Jackson Series: The Lightning Thief
These books are very interesting, and are some of my favorites! This series is about a young boy named Perseus 'Percy' Jackson, who is dyslexic, has ADHD, and has been kicked out of every school he's ever attended. He has never even met his father and his mom is married to a pig. Percy's stepdad, Gabe, is mean and demanding with his poker games. But that will all change.
Percy always knew that his friend, Grover Underwood, was a little strange. He was in sixth grade and had a terrible case of acne, a goatee, and had something wrong with his legs, but the next day he was a satyr! But when his math teacher tuns into a old hag with fangs and claws and tries to kill him, he knows something's up.
It turns out that he is a demigod. Half Greek god and half human. Percy Goes to Camp Half-Blood, a camp for demigods to train. When he arrives, he learns that he is a halfblood. In the other books, Percy and his friends go on quests and save the world. To find out what happens, read the books! I highly reccommend them.

Memphis Watching Rising Mississippi River
As the Mississippi is rising, people question whether Memphis is prepered for it. The Mayor says that they are ready for it. They expected it to start rising in late Monday. Now they say it will be earlier than expected. They say it could crest as soon as Monday night at or near 48 feet. They have been abandoning homes that will most likely be affected by the situation.
The Mississippi has swamped houses in Memphis and may consume even more. Because God is good, the river has gone up slowly enough so that the people could evacuate their homes. !,300 homes were told to go for safety. Thank God they did! Some spectators came to watch the water rise up.
Thanks to God, the rising was predicted and no one got killed. God helped thrm prepare and protected the live of the people. The river already reached record points in some areas. It could have been devastating. But God took care of His people. This again shows God's mercy.

Tagging Outside an L.A. Street Art Exhibit Fuels Debate
The Museum of Contemporary Art expected to make some waves when it launched "Art in the Streets," billed as the first major U.S. museum survey exhibition on graffiti and street art. In a city considered one of the birthplaces of street art, the exhibit at the Geffen Contemporary at MOCA has intensified an already fierce debate about whether something that is illegal can also have artistic value. To fans, it's a welcome recognition of an urban artist style that is evolving from street vandalism into something more. "It's exciting to have some of the most vibrant street art in the world happening in Los Angeles," Greg Linton, an arts blogger who documents street art in L.A., said of the exhibit. "It's what makes these urban areas so special." I believe that it is a pretty neat and interesting event.Alleged West L.A. Burglar Suspected in Hollywood Temple Fire
Los Angeles police have arrested a man in a West Los Angeles burglary who they believe is responsible for a fire and burglary at a prominent Hollywood synagogue. Dmitriy Sheyko, 21, a transient known to frequent the Hollywood area, is suspected of breaking into Temple Israel in the 7300 block of Hollywood Boulevard on April 14 and a nearby grocery store. Sheyko, who police said has a criminal record, was arrested Monday in connection with a burglary in West Los Angeles. I think it is a shame that people do things like that.

3 Western Powers Sending Military Advisors to Libya
In the wake of a plea for help from besieged rebels in the Libyan city of Misurata, three Western powers have announced that they will send military advisors and one said Wednesday that it would step up airstrikes against Moammar Kadafi's military. Italian Defense Minister Ignazio La Russa said 10 military instructors would be sent and details were being worked out. He spoke Wednesday after meeting with his British counterpart, Liam Fox. France and Britain had announced earlier that they would send military officers to Libya to help rebel forces organize and bolster the NATO air campaign that has failed to rout Kadafi's military. It is great that they are willing to help those people.Angels' Youth Serves With Distinction in 15-4 Win Over Texas
You can blame it on injuries, credit it to talent or split the difference and say both had something to do with it, but whatever the reasons, Angels Manager Mike Scioscia has grown comfortable with a lineup that includes rookies at catcher and first base, a center fielder who came into the season with just 62 days of big league experience and a closer who hadn't pitched in relief until last April. "There's a lot of youth on that field," Scioscia said. "The bottom line is not to look at the number next to that experience column. It's what can a player do now. When you see talent … you'll go with it." That is great news for the team. YAY!!!
