NEW STRATEGY FOR SODA TAX GIVES DIET DRINKS A BREAK
This mathematical equation pretty much represents the article verbatim just in funny self-explanatory symbols so it would appeal to general public and would get the idea through. the idea is that NY state government is ultimately going to make a lot of money with passing the soda taxes and as a result we, the consumers will have less money to spend in supermarkets and that's upsetting :(
PAKISTAN: COURT BLOCKS FACEBOOK
Here, poor Pakistani teenagers can't go on facebook just because someone decided to draw funny cartoons of Mohammad and post it... now the whole country has to suffer through not having one of the most powerful communication resources in the world, which is facebook. In my head it is the same as putting a veil on muslim women and covering or hiding them from the world. And just to give this graphic a little more punch I decided to include little Mohammad thumbnail cartoons on the side to explain why this facebook person is covered.

Poor Mongolian herders are left with thousands of dead animals as a result of severe weather this past winter and as a result a lot of them and their families will be left with nothing since they don't practice any other trade or don't have much education. Sad but true... this wool sweater with a hole in the middle represents the percentage of people that will be left with nothing...

The article explains how good the tomato bushes grow when they're up side down... to what I have to say: find something better to do with your life!
"WHEN IT'S IMPORTANT, IT'S PAPER"Do you think greeting cards are still in use and are in demand? I think they're obsolete and sending an SMS is faster, cheaper and more convenient... at the end it's the thought that counts... right?
LOOP CURRENT DISTABILIZES, LOWERING GULF OIL SPILL'S THREAD TO FLORIDA - FOR NOW
This article talks about how the oil spill can affect the tourism in Miami... and I'm very concerned about the fact because I go there every summer! I need my beaches to be clean and ready for my white ass to get some tanning on... that's why I'm encouraging people to take action if they see the effects of oil spill and contact someone who can help.
