Students in America lacking education

This article on the rankings of students in america and their educational level compared to other countries was really interesting to me. Who would have thought that america was the one who would be ranked 14th, behind Korea, Japan, and China. I can see how this would be taking into consideration their strict dicipline schedule and their devotion to education. I love that they have links in the story that are relevant and also a video that adds to the impact. I hope america does something about this, because i believe that we really need to put more of an emphasis on education and make it more of a priority.

Youtube Love letters

Are they serious with this story? I guess it kinda catches your attention, but this isn't news. I don't get how a story about how he made a youtube video for his girlfriend is in the news. It has links and the actual youtube clip available to just click and play if you want to watch it, which i did find helpful, but it just seems like a dumb news story. This guy made a youtube video so his girlfriend would find it "organically." It suprised me that this story made the news.
