Football Practices With a Twist
This article was very interesting because it wasn't a football player that invented this tackle dummy. a friend of a football player who is majoring in engineering and science created this prototype because he saw the injuries his buddy got from live tackling during practice. this is a great idea because its taking 1 person out of a drill, taking the risk of injury out of tackling in practice by 50%. I personally believe this technology should be expanded throughout colleges and even highschools all across the country. anytime you can save a player from a possible injury you should do it.

This Dam is in north Carolina and is a old abandoned work site that was closed and shut down after it threatened the local ecosystem. this place is intriguing to me because of its age and that is a local landmark that has just been abandoned. i would defiantly go there someday just to see how nature takes things back over after man leaves them. this is a human interest story cause its not hard news, its just something that can draw peoples attention just for something to read.

This abandoned police station in mexico city used to be the home of a very well known police chief with a bad reputation and crookedness. this is intriguing because there is a lot of history behind this police station and what happened there in the late 70's and early 80's. i would be a little hesitant to go there just due to the bad stories and reputation the place has. but it would defiantly be interesting to see. this is a human interest story just due to its history with no prominence.
