My favourite food
Tuesday, August 18, 2009 @ 8:49 PM
In Singapore, there are many different types of food from different cultures. However, the food that I like most is the apple pie from MacDonald. Though many people say that fast food is bad for health, I feel that it is fine to eat it once in a blue moon. Although the apple pie is a snack and does not fill my stomach, I still enjoy eating it. Every time, when I take a bite of this scrumptious snack, the fillings will ooze out and it is very tasty indeed, especially when it is piping hot. Now, even when I talk about it, it makes my mouth water. Also, this delicacy is not very expensive at one dollar and can be found practically everywhere. Also, this snack provides us with some of the nutrients and carbohydrates we need. In addition, the pie is baked on the spot so as to guarantee its heat. This snack is cooked with such perfection that it is never undercooked or overcooked. The skin is also cooked to a crisp and it is mouth-watering. Finally, I can only say that the apple pie from McDonalds is my favorite and that you should go to try it or you will regret.

news article review
MOSCOW - SEVEN women were shot dead in a sauna in Dagestan and, in separate attacks, eight policemen and two separatists were also killed in Russia's northern Caucasus region late on Thursday, police and media said on Friday.Growing lawlessness and Islamist violence in Dagestan, Chechnya and neighbouring Ingushetia are undermining the Kremlin's control of its southern flank.
The attacks are the latest in a sharp upswing in violence against civilians across the region, where a local minister was shot dead in his office earlier this week.
The seven women were shot by rebels at around the same time as separatists attacked and killed four policemen manning a nearby checkpoint in Buinaksk, a town 41 km (25 miles) from local capital Makhachkala.
'At least four died when they attacked the traffic police. Around the same time they entered the sauna and shot seven women,' a spokesman for local police said on Friday. He gave no further details.
Separately, four policemen and two separatists died in a shootout in Chechnya, Russian news agencies reported on Friday.
The Chechen deaths occurred in an abandoned house near the capital Grozny, RIA news agency said.
Five other security force officers were also injured in a separate clash in the republic on Thursday, Interfax reported.
On Wednesday, Ingushetia's construction minister was shot at close range in his heavily guarded office.
In Chechnya three human rights activists have been shot and killed in the past month, two earlier this week and one in July. -- REUTERS

This article caught my eye with the caption: 7 woman shot dead in sauna. It looked interesting to me as the article was about the death of a few woman. So, i proceeded to read the article. After i finished reading the article, I felt that the instigator was very cruel and cold-hearted to do so. The rebels of Islam did this terrible mass murder and apart from this, they also attacked some policeman. They must be very daring to do such lawless things. I also pity the women shot dead. They were innocent but they were killed in cold blood, all because the rebels wanted to show their power. They were killed, but all I can say is that they were at the wrong place and at the wrong time. The rebels also went overboard by killing the innocent. Their victims were not to blame for their problems but they still went on to kill them. However, it is not entirely their fault that they did that. From my point of view, I feel that some fault also lies with the fact that the government is not good. That is why the rebels were angry and wanted to take some action. Finally, I can conclude that the woman does not deserve to die and that the rebels should be punished, not to severely though.
