I chose a shape poem and a crossword puzzle.
The shape poem could be helpful when you have to do poetry in school. A downfall is you cant put that many words into it. I did a short one but you can still tell how many lines.
The crossword puzzle could be good for study vocab. because you can put a deffinition with the words.

Current Event:)
Ashton Kutcher joins "2 and a half men", replacing Charlie Sheen.

Charlie Sheen wasted no time on Friday to mock the decision to replace him on 'Two and a Half Men' with Ashton Kutcher, calling the 'That '70s Show' alum a "sweetheart" but a choice that would bring the show down. Despite his public show of gravitas, a source close to Charlie tells me that privately he's "destroyed" by the casting news.

Current event On Tigers:)
My current event is on tigers that attacked. I had to do a current event on the same thing as my knol so its on tigers too.
On December 25, 2007 a female tiger named Tatiana escaped from her pen and attacked three zoo visitors. Carlos Sousa, 17, of San Jose was killed at the scene. The tiger was shot and killed by police as she was attacking another victim, who survived. Tatiana shared her grotto with three other tigers that did not escape.

Current Event With Unemployment:)
The main measure of employment in the United States is the Current Population Survey conducted monthly by the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics. In a March 5, 2008 column in The New York Times, excerpted below, David Leonhardt described the birth of the survey, and its major shortcoming:
In 1878, Carroll D. Wright set out to do something that nobody in the United States had apparently ever done before. He tried to count the number of unemployed.
As is the case today, the 1870s were a time of economic anxiety, with a financial crisis -- the panic of 1873 -- having spread into the broader economy. But Wright, then the chief of the Massachusetts Bureau of the Statistics of Labor, thought there weren't nearly as many people out of work as commonly believed. He lamented the "industrial hypochondria" then making the rounds, and to combat it, he created the first survey of unemployment.
The survey asked town assessors to estimate the number of local people out of work. Wright, however, added a crucial qualification. He wanted the assessors to count only adult men who "really want employment," according to the historian Alexander Keyssar. By doing this, Wright said he understood that he was excluding a large number of men who would have liked to work if they could have found a job that paid as much as they had been earning before.

current Event:)
So what do you think about trump for president? I think he could make a good president. And i also think he could get us out of debt. And he is a billionare... Hes not a jerk billionare though. The only problem i see about him is that if he was president he would treat the stuff as a buisness and would make a lot of enemies!
