        <![CDATA[<p>A <a href="http://www.jsonline.com/news/milwaukee/98682339.html">Journal Sentinel </a> analysis observed how much water residents of Milwaukee used over a two year period. They found that low-income Milwaukee neighborhoods use more water on average. They looked at water bills from June 1, 2008 to June 1, 2010 and marked the locations on a neighborhood map. One dot represents where the most water users are and the other where more than 1 million gallons of water was used. They highlighted areas of the map where different ZIP codes are used and found that the four ZIP codes with the highest average water use contain 15 of the 20 poorest census tracts in the city. These homes are more likely to have leaky pipes and poor quality fixtures in the home.</p>]]>

<p>Katie Brenny said that John Harris, the director of golf, took away her responsibilities and assigned her duties to a relative who does not have a bachelor's degree, which is required of the university's coaches, according to the <a href="http://www.twincities.com/ci_16821676?nclick_check=1">Pioneer Press</a>.</p>

<p>Donald Chance Mark Jr., Brenny's lawyer, said on Thursday that her lawsuit would cite state laws prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation and argue that her employers subjected her to a hostile work environment. Athletic Director Joel Maturi had no comment on Brenny's allegations, said the <a href="http://www.startribune.com/local/south/111645094.html?elr=KArksLckD8EQDUoaEyqyP4O:DW3ckUiD3aPc:_Yyc:aUvckD8EQDUsA">Star Tribune</a>.</p>]]>

<p>Amanda Jean Thomas, 29, and her two sons, ages 12 and 3 months were killed at about 12:45 a.m. in north Minneapolis.

<p>Naama Bay, the protected swim area where the attack took place, had only re-opened its waters to tourists the day before as there had been two other shark attacks earlier in the week, said <a href="http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5hjEzDkhVu2u0b_i-5iulOqn3Sgug?docId=CNG.6b573fd3b9a5d6338e3b322ef720c2eb.4a1">AFP</a>.</p>

<p>The 70-year-old woman, whose name has not been disclosed, was attacked around noon in front of the Hyatt Regency resort. She had called for help once the shark first struck but by the time the lifeguard brought her to shore she had already lost too much blood, said <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/meast/12/05/egypt.shark.attack/index.html?hpt=T2">CNN</a>.</p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>The article I refer to is from the <a href="http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/rest-of-world/Sex-in-New-Zealand-B-school-syllabus-for-ignorant-Asians/articleshow/6951993.cms">Times of India</a>.</p>

<p>I interviewed Sejung Kim, who is from South Korea. She said that people don't talk a lot about sexual things and that she hasn't had very much sex education.</p>

<p>"I think the article is partially true because teenagers get sex education from internet or peers so they can get wrong information or they can get involved in sex behavior without any protection," Kim said.</p>

<p>She thinks that it is good to have sex education because things are different today than many years ago. </p>

<p>Kim is a student at the University of Minnesota and grew up in South Korea and also lived in China for eight years.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>An Apple Valley couple created a poll online that has drawn special attention for internet users this week asking users to determine whether they should abort their 17-week-old fetus or go through with the pregnancy. </p>

<p>Pete and Alisha Arnold are uncertain if they want to have a baby and say that after two miscarriages, this pregnancy was unplanned. "I feel that as I age I've actually gotten more selfish and set in my ways," Alisha wrote in early Internet blog posts on the site, reported the <a href="http://www.twincities.com/ci_16653262?IADID=Search-www.twincities.com-www.twincities.com">Pioneer Press</a>.</p>

<p>By Thursday evening, roughly 80 percent of voters were in favor of Arnold giving birth while the other 20 percent were against it, said <a href="http://kstp.com/news/stories/S1846159.shtml?cat=1">5 EYEWITNESS News</a>.</p>

<p>As of Friday afternoon, there were more than 115,000 votes.</p>]]>
