Commodities Values

Hello Students!

As you can see, I'm not at school today. The substitute should have given this assignment. However, just in case you didn't get it or you're reading this after today and you've lost the assignment, here it is.

Besides your usual Google and Wikipedia search habits, for this assignment it would be worth your time to search on Wolfram Alpha.

See you on Wednesday!
Mr. Byrne

I din't get an news paper anything but i have a video.

I don't think that at this point in the race its ok to still be mud slinging. we have like 2 weeks left and i think who ever is on the fence should listen to the people they want to vote for not the people they dont want to vote for.

Libby Mitchell's efforts Cassy Surrette

I think her efforts will get her elected cause' she cares about the people of Maine.

Libby Mitchell Article

The article I read can be found here.

In the past, Libby Mitchell was caught in a picture laughing at a picture of George W. Bush with the words "International Terrorist." There is a video on the article, with the apology, which I watched as well. I don't really think this will help or hurt her chances of becoming governor because she did apologize for the picture, even though I don't think she should really have to. The other political parties, however, have called her a hypocrite, because she mentioned the mishaps of Paul LePage. I think this is just a tiny little thing and should be over looked. I do not think she should be judged because of a picture that was taken of her over a year ago. However, people might like the fact that she owned up to her mistake and didn't make a big deal of it or make excuses. So that was pretty cool.

WIth friends like these who needs enimies.

HAHA here it is.


People are saying that Libby Mitchel is to close to the teachers union. This started when an ad saying that Paul LePage was going to "would make big budget cuts to schools and would hurt education in Maine" But that same add was produced by the "political action Committee". The PAC just happens to share a phone number with the Maine Education Association.

Libby Mitchel is supported by the Maine Education Associations president Chris Galgay because she will be a "Educational Governor"

Two Weeks Until Election Day

There is just over two weeks to go before election day. The candidates will be using every strategy they can think of to get elected. Your assignment today is to find a current (published within the last week) story (written or video) about your candidate's efforts over the last week to improve his/her chances of being elected. Will your candidate's efforts prove successful on election day? (

Remember to link to your chosen story.

If you are having trouble finding a story about your candidate, select an advertisement for your candidate that has been released in the last week.
