 I chose this newspaper cover because it does good at showing the effects that Hurricane Irene left behind. It tells how many people died, and uses a good aerial view of some of the flooding. They also have a good story on the suicide bomber who killed 29 in Iraq. When i look at the paper, the first thing that catches my eye is the orange clothes that the people at the carnival are wearing. I also like how they show the weather on the side so you don't have to flip around in the pages to find the daily weather.

The Bakersfield Californian has a good sub headline because it pulls you in and makes you want to read the rest of the article. They also feature 3 other stories at the bottom which are pretty interesting. I like the name of the paper as well. It tells the name of the town "Bakersfield" and the state they're in "Californian".

Last year i did well at writing, which is something that will carry over this year.
