Palo Alto, California- Today Google Inc. (GOOG) made a hostile takeover bid of $60 billion to purchase Time Warner Inc. (TMX) Dr. Eric Schmidt, CEO and chairman of Google, explained that his company is trying to move more into content distribution and he thinks that buying out Time Warner will do that for his company. Richard D. Parsons, CEO of Time Warner, says they haven't met with the board yet to even discuss a buyout, they have talked about a possible merger, but this will not be a quick decision to make. Industry analyst Paul Kim says that it would be foolish of Time Warner not to accept the bid.

Practice News Story 7: Speech
Posted: November 19, 1863
Gettysburg, Pennsylvania- This afternoon President Lincoln dedicated the Soldiers' National Cemetary in Gettysburg Pennsylvania. It is to honor the courageous men who fought in the battle of Gettysburg, one of the biggest battles of this war to date. The president inspired everyone who attended with hope for freedom and the end of the war. His speech was just over two minutes long, but his words were profound. The president ended his speech with these words that should inspire everyone, "this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
In an interview with the president after the dedication he said, " This speech was inspired by the almighty God. As long as we are a God fearing nation we will continue, this nation will not perish and we can continue furthering God’s will." The president did not want the men who died in this battle to have died in vain. He stated, "I believe in the unity of the nation."

Practice News Story 5: Obituary
Posted: 9:47 pm MT October 4, 2007
Lance Armstrong 1971-2007
Lance Armstrong died yesterday, October 3rd, at the young age of 36. He was attempting a new land speed record on a bike in Bonneville Utah at the salt flats. He was half way through the ride when suddenly he fell over. The cause of his death is still unknown.
Armstrong was a cancer survivor and champion of the Tour de France seven years in a row. His incredible strength and abilities were so unbelievable that he was drug tested several times even though no evidence of drugs was ever found. I doubt there will ever be another athlete with his strenth and endurance.
Armstrong was survived by his mother Linda, ex-wife Kristin, and his three children Luke Isabelle, and Grace. Funeral services will be held in his home town of Austin Texas later in the week.
