New York Times - Oct. 6, 2009

The New York Times had a few very interesting articles in the front section today. The one I found most interesting yet horrific was the terror in Guinea. Hundreds of women were being raped and beaten and used as prey as a result of the outrageous terror regime currently taking place. The story tells of several women recounting their awful experiences being trapped and forced into an area like herded cattle. It's a tragic profile piece featuring actual people who fell victim to the demonstration, as they're calling it.

Also in the news were stories about the timely emergence of a vaccination for the swine flu. Because of the panicked craze, the vaccine is high in demand, and has created a rush of people scrambling to get it before the virus strikes a place close to home.

Finally, the popular food magazine Gourmet will be printing its last issue in the coming weeks. Published since 1941, the magazine was famous in the world of cooking, and has set the standard for all cooking publications in the country.
