Futuristic airborne energy weapons have officially arrived, so mark your calendars. The U.S. Missile Defense Agency said that its airborne laser weapon successfully shot down a ballistic missile during a test late last night, according to Reuters.

The lethal intercept followed up on a demo last August that showed how the airborne laser could paint a target missile in-flight. We showcased the video of the earlier test that showed the laser from the modified 747 jumbo jet tracking the dummy rocket, which took place near San Nicolas Island off the California coast. Yesterday's shoot-down occurred at Point Mugu's Naval Air Warfare Center-Weapons Division Sea Range off Ventura in central California.

White fang is one of the great illustrated clasics.I would give it 10 out of 10 in a rating.I think the best part was the end of it

The charecter  is all about a dog/wolf he is half dog half wolf, his name is white fang.

the book is all about his life and his owners. The book is a little sad when it goes torwds the middle and end.

one of his owners beauty smith is very mean and he only cares about money.

I hope all of you go and read White Fang.

The lightning thief was one of the best movies I had seen in a long time.I recommend it for ages 8 and up.

The best part of the lightning thief I think was when they find the bolt and the museum's.

All of the charecters have very good acting.I would give it a 10 out of ten rating.

I hope you go take your family to see The Lightning Thief soon!
