I ran across an interesting story last Friday about a science study that was done claiming that spanking or physical punishment could lower children's IQ. You can read the article at www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33013187/ns/health-kids_and_parenting/.

This claim struck me pretty hard because I've always wondered why I'm not a genius. I'm not a genius because of my parents, they stunted my brain growth everytime they spanked me.

Hey guys, it is only 7 days until the first Eagle Eye meeting and I wanted to blog and tell you how excited we are about the new season.
It really is out with the old and in with the new this year and we want you to be apart of it. We have new equipment and new abilities and my personal favorite - we have a new awesome website -thanks to our amazing director that is.
All the new toys are great, but what staff is most excited about it seeing all the reporters in a week. We are working really hard to make sure that this year, everyone takes a story and learns how exciting, fun and challenging being a reporter is!
The amazing thing about Eagle Eye is that you get to learn everything- shooting, reporting, anchoring, writing and editing. If you are an RTVF major, you know as well as we do. There is not enough hands-on experience in our classes, but Eagle Eye can really serve as way to find your voice and style as a reporter.
Taking a story can be nerve-racking. We know that and we have all felt that. Heck, Carrie, the station manager, and I were talking this week how we still feel intimated by our first story this season.

This is an exciting year for all of us at Eagle Eye TV. We have more than $50,000 worth of new equipment ready to bring you the latest news on the plains. We now have the capability to broadcast our show LIVE on the web and bring you video and text updates throughout the week on our new website. We will also be broadcasting LIVE on cable later this semester. All of us at Eagle Eye are very excited about the upcoming season. We are working around the clock to cover the stories that mean the most to you. If you have a story idea or a breaking news clip, email us at news@eagleeyetv.com.

If you are interested in becoming a part of Eagle Eye TV, please join us at our first meeting of the semester on August 31st in the Student Center at 7:00p. We will be talking about all the new equipment we have received and giving out story assignments. Afterwords, we will head to the studio and broadcast our first LIVE show at 8:30pm. We would love for you to be a part of the new Eagle Eye. If you need more information drop us an email at info@eagleeyetv.com or come by our studio in 1105C in the Student Center.

War Eagle!
