1. My lingering questions after the discussion is who really was Tippu Tip. I don't think we went over this one question as much as we did the other ones. The idea that I would like to go further is who is worse the person who kills or the person who tells the person to kill.
2. Overall, I think our group discussion was productive. We were able to discuss a good amount of the questions. We also had lots of opinions and ideas which was good because it was not like someone found a quote and cited it and moved on to another topic with out discussing it. For me I need to improve on talking more in the discussions and try and get a better understanding of the book.

News Event on Taliban poison-in class work
What's being discussed in this article?
This article is about hundreds of girls getting poison in their school in Afghanistan. The victims all got very sick and were taken to the hospital. The Taliban does not believe in girls getting education and they banned it when they had power between 1996 to 2001, so it is most likely they attacked the girls' school with poison. However they also though it could of been a mass hysteria where one person saw another person ill and they got shocked and felt the same way.
When did the event happen? (Is this breaking news or something that's been analyzed and discussed for a while?)
This event happen on the 25 of August 2010. This is news that has been analyzed and discussed for a while because at the end of this article they list a bunch of classroom attacks with the same problem.
What questions do you have that would help make this article make more sense to you? What more so you need to learn about to be able to report on this event?
The question I have on this article is why do they think it could of been a hysteria and how was the hysteria caused by? Where the other classroom attacks real attacks too or was it just a hysteria?

Thoughts on 9/2/10 class notes
I learned what imperialism is and that there was an old one and new one. I learned what protectorate means. I am confused with the Raw cotton part and what they did with it. I did not get that in my notes.
