The article "Attentions Disorders or Not, Pills to Help in School" is about Dr.Anderson giving students pills for their poor academics performance in inadequate schools. The pills are not for students A.D.H.D., it's just used to boost their academic performance.
These pills were made because it's too expensive to expensive to change the environment. In the article Dr.Anderson says "'We've decided as a society that it's too expensive to change the kid's environment. So we have to change the kid.'" This mean that it cost to much to change the environment around the kid, so there going to just to change how the act in the environment.
I think this topic is very important because these kids need special help. This happen because of the low-income elementary school and parents. The parents or schools can't afford to get the help they need for the students/children.
This article remind me of me a little bit. I say that because like these kids, I got easily distracted. I use to be hyperactive. This article makes me think the parents should try to help their kids on their academic performance. Or they can try something new. I wonder if the parents or schools really care about the kids. I also wonder if the parents ever get the help they need for their kids. Will schools change their learning environment?

Peanut-Butter Increase It's Price
The article "Peanut-Butter Makers Face Crunch" by Paul Ziobro is about how the peanut-butter brands are increasing their price. They increased the price for the tons of peanuts used to make peanut butter.
In the story it says "Wholesale prices for big-selling Jif are going up 30% starting in November, while Peter Pan will raise prices as much as 24%." This shows that the original price would be a dollar more starting in November. Also in the story a spokeswomen said "Kraft Foods Inc., which launched Planters peanut butter in June, is raising prices 40% on Oct. 31." This mean that 40% will be added to the original price of Kraft Food Inc. peanut-butter on Oct. 31.
I think they should increase the price of peanut-butter. I think so because their is a lot of peanuts used to make peanut-butter. Also because, the peanut farmers have to plant the peanuts in the dry weather and their not getting paid enough. One farmer said "'I don’t remember a year that you didn’t catch a shower or had so little moisture in the ground to get the seed up'"
No this article don't reflect on me or what i did in life. It did a little bit make me think deeper into the topic. This article makes me wonder if your parents will still go out and but peanut-butter over the next year. Or would a 30% increase of the prices of peanut-butter reduce how much peanut-butter your parents buy.
