They include things like thinking of others and enjoying life humbly, but for a popularized racing car it might not be easy. “Cars,” directed by John Lasseter and starring the voices of Owen Wilson (“Wedding Crashers”), Bonnie Hunt (“Cheaper By the Dozen 2”), Paul Newman (“Empire Falls”), Larry the Cable Guy (“Blue Collar Comedy”), Cheech Marin (“Spy Kids 3”) and Michael Keaton (“Herbie Fully Loaded,” “First Daughter”) is an amazing animated film that has a lot of creativity. Lightning McQueen (Wilson) is a really fast race car and rookie to the NASCAR scene. After winning many races he is tied for first place in points with two other cars. The final race of the season is coming up: the Piston Cup. All three cars competing for the first place spot will stop at nothing to make sure no other car gets in their way. As Lightning McQueen is about 100 feet from the finish line, and winning the race, he Ryan Garner/The Daily Journal blows out both of his back tires.

Attorneys were being permitted to question individual panelists without the others present on how much they knew about the high- ly publicized case. Lawyers were expected to take at least until the end of the week to select a jury.

We like to show our creativity by choosing our own clothes. When we wear uniforms, we can’t express what our culture is. People say it reduces teasing but the bullies can still tease other students about something else, like braces and glasses. Uniforms can take away our creativity and the way we like to dress. Also it takes away our cultural expression. What we could do is make a petition for the people that don’t like them to show to our parents about how we feel about uniforms.
