Beyoncé was the lead winner at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards, taking home six prizes although that brings her to a total of 28 in her whole career. One of her awards was for her hit song “Single Ladies”. It took the best R&B song and best female R&B performance. Her song “Halo” won the best female pop vocal performance. However, Taylor Swift was close with winning four awards, including for her album of the year “Fearless”. Right behind Beyoncé, there were two other hip hop bands, Kings of Leon and The Black Eye Peas. The King of Leon won record of the year for boogieing blues-rock song “Use Somebody”. The Black Eye Peas won the best pop vocal album and best pop performance by a group. Lady Gaga and Elton John opened doing a duet for the show at the Staples Center. They sang Lady Gaga's song “Speechless” and Elton John's song “Your Song”. The Grammy's also held a 3-D tribute to Michael Jackson ft. Smokey Robinson, Celine Dion, Jennifer Hudson and Carrie Underwood singing along with Jackson's recorded voice in his hit the “Earth Song”. There were 109 award catergories this year, but only 100 awards were given out because many artist did not show. 7. 8. 9. I have a music obsession. Knowing many of the artist and their lyrics, I'm happy to know that they got an award for all of their hard work. The tribute to Michael Jackson, however, was a little extreme. Not many people cared about him when he was alive. However once he died, everyone “loved” him again and was a fan. Beyoncé deserved her six awards for all the music she produced and her achievements through out the year. It's great to know that even the more welled known are awarded fairly between the resent bands that have come out. It was an interesting choice though to have Elton John and Lady Gaga open for this event.

 * 3) China Hits Back at Clinton on Net Freedom
 * By: Aaron Back
 * 1) International
 * 2) Friday, China accused the Obama administration if leveling “groundless charges” after being accused of hacking and messing with over a dozen U.S. Companies, like Google Inc. Ma Zhaoxu, Chinese foreign Ministry spokesman, warned that the U.S. Should “properly handle differences” over the issue or risk damaging bilateral relations. He states, "We urge the U.S. side to respect the facts, and to stop using the so-called Internet freedom issue to make groundless charges against China." These statements came after Secretary of State Hillary Clinton accused China, among many other countries, of going into Google and hacking into email accounts of human-right's activists. The Chinese accusations also prove to be increasing signs of tension between China and the U.S.
 * 3) It seems like our nations leaders are attaching more and more like high school students. One slanders the other (verbal or online) then the other responses. Our “leaders” are suppose to be people we can look up to and follow in their actions. If they are doing this, then they are teaching everyone that it's ok for everyone to do so. If our leaders can't work together for problems, then how are the people suppose to do so? We as the the people don't need them to make accusations and point figures when our security is already low. If we are having a problem, then why don't we just fix it instead of causing trouble with our allies?
