News=I am a member of Media Action Network for Asian American (MANAA), that
is a non-profit organization which dedicates to monitoring all mass media. As
most of you know, the United States is such a culturally diverse society.
However, such cultural diversity seems to be ignored in the media. From new
season (Fall), Network Televisions will not employ any actors from
underrepresented groups.
Resentfully, a program protested against this by interviewing Black and
Latino American actors but Asian American Actors. Who could stand this
inconsistency?

Trinity Site National Historic Landmark
Trinity Site is where the first atomic bomb was tested at 5:29:45 a.m. Mountain War Time on July 16, 1945. Trinity Site is located 180 miles south of Albuquerque, New Mexico. The 19 kiloton explosion not only led to a quick end to the war in the Pacific but also ushered the world into the atomic age. The 51,500-acre area was declared a national historic landmark in 1975. The landmark includes base camp, where the scientists and support group lived; ground zero, where the bomb was placed for the explosion; and the McDonald ranch house, where the plutonium core to the bomb was assembled. This place is only open twice a year and April 7 was one of the days and several hundred people around the area visited this national historic landmark
