We all agreed on how the ending of the section was so good we wanted to keep reading.  Olivia said that it gave her nerves and chills when the animals almost killed Cia and Tomas.   Macy said that Tomas adn Cia are really athletic because they went 43 miles on the bikes.  We all can't wait till the ending of the book and we can't wait till the climax.

Beginning of chapter 12.  I didn't like when the crossbow shooter was shooting at Cia when she was trying to get out of the building.  I didn't like it because I thought it was unfar that the person was trying to kill Cia.  I also didn't like when Tomas kept telling Cia that they could drink the water but Cia went up a hill to see if there was any other water areas that they could drink. Out of no where the lake explodes and Cia tumbles down the hill. After Cia got up she ran over to Tomas, when she got there she relized that Tomas was unconscious. Out of the corner of her eye she say a pool of blood. She turned Tomas to his side and saw a tree branch had lodged through his hip. She went through her bag to find her medical kit. She started a fire and got a medal peice and took out the branch from Tomas's hip when Cia got that out Cia put the medal piece on the wound to try to seal it up.

I liked when Cia and Tomas kissed it was so crazy.  It was my favorite part because when I knew they were going to do it sometime because they kept holding hands during the testing.

We all thought that the beginning of the section was really good but at the end Olivia said "The end was kinda confusing but it was very good" I agree with her it was kinda hard to keep track with. Macy agreed with all of us.

Why did Ryme kill herself?  Ryme killed herself because she was stressed out for the Testing and Cia was being a little mean to her but I can't blame Cia because Ryme was being mean to Cia first.

Paying Attention To Politics? You're Probably Really Stressed Out

In a new survey, Americans cite politics and the news as the biggest sources of stress in their lives.

According to a new study, politics and the news are really stressing people out:

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation just released a wide-ranging survey on the prevalence and causes of stress in the U.S. Overall, 86 percent of Americans say they've been stressed out in the past month, with 26 percent saying they've experienced a great deal of stress.

When it comes to major stressful life events, health-related issues top the list: More than 4 in 10 respondents who said they experienced a major stressful event in the past year cited health concerns as the primary stressor.

But the survey also asked about smaller, daily stressors - the little exasperations that can add up to a miserable day. And here something surprising emerges: Americans cited "hearing about what the government or politicians are doing" as the most frequent daily stressor on their lives, and at a substantially higher rate than the usual annoyances like commuting, chores and general schedule-juggling.

Robert Blendon, a professor of health policy and political analysis at Harvard and one of the authors of the study, sees two things happening here. "First, the nature of news has become much more confrontational in domestic and international coverage," he said in an email. "Secondly, we are also at a high point of public distrust and disdain for elected officials and seeing them on the news is stressful for a share of a Americans."

We're saturated with 24-hour news coverage of our government and politicians, many of whom we have extremely negative feelings toward. So it's natural that when they show up on our TV screens - which we're glued to about 3 hours a day - we experience a range of negative emotions. Frustration, anger, even stress.

The chart tells the tale:

Kevin Drum wants follow-up:

[B]oy howdy, does this beg for a follow-up. I really, really want to know what news sources cause the most stress. Is it listening to NPR? Watching Fox News? Getting your daily Limbaugh fix? Reading Kevin Drum's blog?

Perhaps the mere act of making you think about this is, at this very moment, making you red in the face. Then again, maybe not. I want to know more. Who's most stressed out by the news? Liberals? Conservatives? Everyone? And what outlets cause the most stress? Obviously my money is on the Drudge/Fox/Limbaugh axis, but maybe I'd be surprised. I want to hear more about this.

I would suspect that such a follow up would find that there is at least some correlation between people who limit their news and information diet to largely partisan sources on either side of the aisle and the amount of stress created by watching daily news events. For one thing, people like that in my experience also tend to be people who spend more time following political news generally, so there are going to be more opportunities for them to become outraged. More importantly, these partisan news and information sources have gotten to the point where generating and feeding off of political outrage is basically their bread and butter. So, the more you watch networks like Fox and MSNBC, and the more you read hard right or hard left blogs, the more outraged you're going to become, and the more outraged you become the more stressed out you're likely to become.

That begin said, it seems obvious that the phenomenon that the survey captures here can't be fully explained just by people who limit their news consumption to partisan media, or even who pay a lot of attention to news and politics. As Andrew Sullivan notes, there is a heck of a lot to be stressful about in the news today, whether its whats going on internationally in places such as Ukraine, Syria, Iraq, or Israel, or pretty much any domestic issue which unfailingly gets reduced to little more than a partisan political fight that ends up accomplishes nothing. Politicians in both parties run for office promising to "get things done," and yet unfailingly end up in Washington involved in the same stupid arguments over the same stupid issues. Even someone who only watching relatively brief snippets of the news is going to find themselves getting stressed out by the stupidity they see on a regular basis.

Since it's unlikely that politics and the news are going to become less stressful any time soon, I suppose Sullivan's advice is the best course of action:

My response is to try and compartmentalize it so I don't get completely stressed out, or upset, or just exhausted by the noise. You want to know why I insist on getting to Ptown every summer and not leaving? It's the yin to the yang of the arena. Without it, I've only got the hubby, the hounds, and Angry Birds.

I'd say the Yankees are one of my distractions, but that's just been a source of stress lately itself. At least the NFL and College Football will be back to take some attention away from what is likely to be another painful run-up to the midterms in November.

How did Ryme kill herself?  Ryme killed herself by getting her dress and her bed sheet tied it to the light and and stood on a chair a feel off the chair and hung herself.

We all loved the beginning of the book.  Olivia said that is was very sad that Cia´s roomate hung herself with her dress. And we all agreed that it was very sad. Macy and I thought that it was also very sad that Cia had to leave her family forever. I can´t wait to start the next section.

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder why her mom is so upset with Cia because she got chosen for the Testing. Cia´s mom is happy for her but also very sad because she won´t be able to see Cia ever again. If she would see Cia it would be in a very long time.

# data[].attributes.body
The most important part in the story is when Cia has to go to Magenstrait Owens office and Magenstrait Owens tells Cia that she is going to Tuso City to do the Testing. page 21-24.
I chose this because it is important that she got chosen for the testing but it is also bad because Cia has to leave her family the next morning to go to Tuso  City for the Testing. She would probably never see her family again.
