Tiger Woods was chased out of his house by his wife because she thinks he was cheating on her. He got into his car and she continued to chase him down the driveway until he ran into the fire hydrant and a tree at the end of the driveway. Woods had scratches on his face and was dazed when policemen showed up after the call came in. His wife, Elin Nordegren, is saying that she heard the crash from inside the house and grabbed a golf club on her way out to break the window so Tiger could get out.
The media needs to leave this story alone. This is there personal and social lives at risk and nobody needs to know what exactly happened except the government and Woods wife. I think that the media gets into celebrities personal lives way too much. The celebrities need to stick up for themselves and tell the media to leave them alone or something. It gets very old to hear about all of these cheating scandals and everything else.

Black Friday- New Media Blog
Every year, the day after Thanksgiving is crazy everywhere you go. Black Friday brings so many people out before the sun even rises to shop for bargains. This year people shopped more for bargains and spent less than they did last year. On average people will have spent 8 percent less per person than last year. Thats about 343 dollars on each person. It's not just Friday, but Saturday and Sunday are also included in on the 343 dollars. The National Retail Federation said that shoppers were very willing to open their wallets for a bargain. I was one of those shoppers but I was not one of them that got up before the sun to shop for those bargains.

Indianapolis Colts vs. New England Patriots- New Media Blog
On Nov. 15, 2009, the battle of quarterbacks is going to occur. Peyton Manning from the Colts has lead his team undefeated through ten weeks. Tom Brady is coming back from missing all of last season to an ACL tear and is now back on track. His team has only two lossed on the season and still leads their division. The Colts have yet to lose on the road and the Patriots have yet to lose at home where the game will be played. Some people have picked the Patriost to win this game because they have home field advantage but I still think Manning will come through for his team and lead them to another victory. Brady is a very good quarteback but I just think that Manning has a better defense to back him up. Both offenses are equally good with awesome wide recievers and running backs that can also catch the ball. This game will be the game of the season.

Soldiers Body Found- New Media
Two soldiers last week went missing in western Afghanistan after they went out to retrieve airdropped supplies at the river. They believe that Benjamin Sherman jumped into the river to save another soldier, who got swept away from the river's current. The second paratrooper is still missing, but military divers found Sherman. The first few days of the search, fighting had broken out with militants in the area. No American soldiers were killed but some were wounded. I think what Benjamin Sherman did was a very brave thing and many people will never forget that. That lets us know that we have great men and women fighting for our freedom. It makes me feel very safe and I pray for those men and women every day so that they can come home safely. They have been fighting for our country for years and now I think it is time for them to come home. Enough blood has been shed!

It came out in theaters on Wednesday, October 28th and the first five days it was out, it made 101 million dollars at the box office. The first weekend it was out it earned 21.3 million dollars. Originally, the movie was supposed to be out in theaters for just two weeks, but the success of the movie in the first five days is giving Sony no choice but to extend it through Thanksgiving weekend. When the movie is taken out of theaters, it is expected to be number one on the all-time music documentaries.
