1. Title: Ceremonies of hope, of grace, and remembrances, September 11
2. Creator: MSNBC reported by: Kelly Bush, Brian Mooar, NBC news
3. Media: website article
4. Website: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20731656/
5. Summary: On September 11, 2007, across the country people mourned the 3,000 victims of the attack. This year was the last opportunity to visit ground zero in New York because it is now a construction zone. But this day was for remembering loved ones, friends, colleagues, and strangers who were lost on 9/11; keeping a promise made six years ago, “We will never forget.” Officials say the true toll of 9/11 may not be known for twenty years.
6. The most striking thing to me was that so many people paid their respects to the victims, which is a good thing. Also, another striking point is that officials say that the true toll of 9/11 may not e known for twenty years.
7. My reaction is that I think it’s a good thing. More people should pay their respects to the victims. Also, it makes America stronger.
Sorry, im really bad when it comes to procrastinating
1. The title is; Hope: Rising the from Destruction of Ground Zero

3. Mine is an article

5. The article I read was about people’s feelings on what happened on that day or what some people saw. Also, they tell about what people did to honor the people that were in involved.
6. One of the most shocking things i read was about a guy who got burned when he was by the elevator when it exploded.
7. This to me was a shocking and sad peice. I never relized what some people did to honor those who were involved. Also, i was amazed to read about what people were able to see as the event was happening.

1. the title is “9/11”
2. it was created by Brian Bezalel
3. it’s like a slideshow of both videos and pictures with some background music.
4. found it on youtube.com: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDh_pvv1tUM
5. On September 11, 2007, New York City, as well as the rest of America, was under attack by terrorists from Afgahnistan. The World Trade Center was hit by hijacked planes and collasped, leaving the historic landmark, Ground Zero. Lives were lost as well as hope on that day.
6. the most striking part of the video was the real videos of the planes crashing and how ground zero looked when it was swarmed with firefighters, police, and volunteers.
7. My reaction was emotional. I suddenly remembered that day so vidid, like it was yesterday. the background music really matched the video, it was sorrowful and very emotional. I also felt very sad that other people’s lives and their family member’s lives get taken and mine were perfectly intact. I also felt very grateful that i still had my family to live with.
