This article was founded in the LA Times, and was reported from Beirut. On a beautiful Saturday morning, things got even more bloody in the Syrian capital. Two bombs were exploded.Authorities reported that at least twenty seven people had died, and 100 had been injured. It is said that there is blood scattered all around the district, bodies on the floor, and multiple cars exploded. The bombs were originally placed in cars that were set off in the morning. Car bombs are an indication that Al-Qaeda is getting ready to overthrow the government of Assad.
It is sad that these things are happening to such a small country. I feel so sorry for the people, especially since I have family there. Things like this should not be happening to people anywhere. Since this revolution started a year ago, over 10,000 people have died! This is not acceptable. The U.S. should take a step in making things better if they truly are the greatest and most powerful country.

Importance of Language
Language is one of the most important things in the world. Language is good for various reasons such as social acceptance, trade, communication, and self recognition. There are two things that are very important to language. One of those would be diction. People do not communicate the same way. Everyone has something different to say to describe something. Diction is necessary because it helps you understand a person as well as quickly judge them based on their language. One great example would be that you do not talk to your friend the same way as you would talk to the police or a teacher.
The second one would be dialect. Without dialect, you would not know which part of the country that person is from. Because countries have mixed nationalities, there is always a different dialect they speak. Every language has a different dialect. Dialect is like a key to identify people. It is a key to acceptance as well as the feeling of being home when around people who speak your same dialect.
