Current Events: Storm Area 51, They Can't Stop All of Us.

Storm Area 51, They Can't Stop All of Us!

That is the title of the Facebook page that started it all. Over 2 Million people have signed up to attempt to raid the highest protected military base in America. The airspace over area 51 has been closed so that no drones can be flown to "Spot Aliens".
Area 51 is in Nevada, America. Nevada has a population of just over 3 million and is a state of America.
People planning to raid are apparently making strategies to get in, whether people flank in through the sides, or rush up the middle, that will be decided on September 20th, or the 21st for New Zealand.

Man vs.... Octopus?? (News)

This week, In the sea of Japan, A man was diving with his friend(s), when one of them felt a interesting sensation. A Octopus had latched on to him, and was trying to pull him down into the sea. He kicked it off, but it kept on coming back. Imagine how frightening that would be, getting dragged underwater, By a random octopus. The octopus left and the man escaped unharmed.

Did you know, that this week, with flying colours, Auckland council with just under 90% (Or 7997 people) votes decided to petition the government to ban private use of Fireworks! It would then be illegal to let fireworks off at your house!!

The SPCA, Fire and Emergency NZ, NZ Veterinary Association and SAFE all spoke in favour of the ban. The biggest concerns raised in the submissions were the safety of people and animals, followed by noise.

I agree with this decision as I have two dogs and one is terrified of fireworks! People can still go to public displays.

Football's Most Expensive Goalkeeper, Kepa Arrizabalaga has been in the news. 

Was it For a good reason ?? 

No, no, No, no, and NO! 

He plays for Chelsea, who played Manchester United earlier this week in the league. All game the score was a tie, so it came to penalty shootouts.  The Coach of Chelsea wanted to bring Kepa Arrizabalaga off the field and replace him with the other keeper because he seemed injured, but he REFUSED!! He didn't get off the field, so he ended up doing the shootout and suprise suprise, they lost 4-3. 

Maybe he should have listened to his coach...

Because Wairakei Geothermal Operations, when they were working, they accidently made a slip in a dam and look what happened...

So tourists are paying quite a lot of money to come and see THAT MUDDY RIVER!! What a scam...
