The article itself was pretty informative. The fault I noticed, though, was that there was a lot of talk of the problem of poverty in the country and that education was the key to success, but no real plan on how to go about that. The article did, however, shine the light on UNICEF and its own efforts to help the nation. It was good.

I was actually pretty surprised at how short and straight to the point this piece was. The author made sure to get out the information regarding the burqa ban in France without adding much opinion of his/her own in the piece, which I appreciated. It is easy to read and could be understood by all different demographics.

Although this editorial takes on a somewhat pessimistic tone, the information that the author puts forth supports his arguments. The author really puts into perspective the hazardous future that we may be facing in parts and sets out, one by one, all the possibilities. I enjoyed this article.

This article talks about more than just the education syste in Portugal. It tackles that issue, yes, but it also discusses the idea of how the economy and budget cut throughout the country is affecting the educational system itself. the article discusses this topic in a form that is understandable, and yet not too number heavy (aside from the euro to dollar conversion some might have to make mentally), which makes this article accessible to a wide demographic.

This is a well-written article. Although in a portion of the article a comment by someone about their views of Obama's administration and how he has/is falling through like George Bush, the author does not drag that thought throughout the entire article, therefore allowing us to make our own conclusions and decisions when it comes to that viewpoint. It is very informative, and has click-through links for keywords in the article that allow us be able to research what we don't already know.

This is one of the few pieces that I have read that really does seem like its main goal is to be informative and informative only. There seems to be no bias for or ahainst the ideas being presented in the article, but it does let us know about the plans of the CRA and about the organization itself. The only thing I feel could have been done is perhaps having gone a little further into how this expansion will help the middle east, or what effects and goals it'll have.

I noticed that, apart from some of the articles I have read in the past, this article incorporates graphs into the article. That way the readers can have the opportunity to visually see what the statistics that are being thrown around mean and look like. It helps to make the article more attractive to different demographics. The downside of this, however, is tat ther are quite a few acronyms that are not described/explained and so I had to do a little googling, which could be a downer to some readers reading experience.

This article sure does do a fine job of scaring its audience. I enjoyed the way it commenced with a look back into the past and then connected that flashback to what is occurring today and what is expected to occur in the Earths future, in relation to climate change. The article, although mainly based on Africa, takes on various parts o the world and explains how and why we will all be affected. Although we clearly see the point o view of the author of this article, I think that the information that they bring to the table is something that can be appreciated, and aside from knocking our boots off with fear, can really show us a thing or two.

The article itself is not bad in terms of content, it just has a lot of quotes stated by many people involved in the event in Australia and their opinions of the countries progress. However there is quote after quote after quote without really adding in much explanation behind them. Also, if reading this article from the perspective of a person who is not very informed on the history and past status of Australia, I feel that I would have to google numerous times throughout the article to be able to have a thorough understanding of the different events and "progress" that the author is referring to.
