 Hey,I'm CL.This is cnn students news.We get a great weekend.We have a lot to cover.We pick off for the last week of September,starting with the race for the White House.

 
With voters heading to the poll next year,President Obama was likely to be  the candidate for the Democratic party.We don't know yet who represents the Republic party.A group of candidates have been facing off against each other, hoping to get the Republic's nomination 1.Over the weekends,those candidates faced off in two straw polls The results do mean anything official.They just give off some ideas of where voters might be leaning.
 
 
In Florida,Herman Cain came on top.The talk show host and former business man got 37% of the votes in that straw poll.Texas governor Rick Perry, the front runner in recent polls for the Republican nomination, came in second with just over 15 percent.
 
 
Governor Perry also finished second in a Michigan straw poll. Those results came out yesterday. There, Perry lost out to former Massachusetts governor Mitt 2 Romney, who got 51 percent of the votes. Romney was expected to win. He's from Michigan and he won that state's Republican primary when he ran for president in 2008.
 
 
Following up with the story from last week when NASA wasn't sure debris 3 from a satellite where the might crash on earth.Well, they are still not sure even the thing crashed sometime late on Friday night.The UARS,upper atmosphere research satellite was huge,was a size of bus.it weighs several tons.NASA didn't expect the whole thing to make it back to earth but they did think a couple of dozens parts could survive and re-entry in the earth's atmosphere.John and Wolf are for here to talk about why the UARS might come down and how likely someone actually saw it fall.
 
 
NASA says that the satellite did re-enter the earth's atmosphere.They say the joint 4 space center in Vandenberg Air Force Base out in California said that it actually reentered over the Pacific Ocean at ,between those times, but they don't know exactly when or where it ,those parts, that were expected to reach Earth actually landed. So that video over Texas is a long way from the Pacific Ocean, I mean, that may be a stretch.
 
 
We do have some interesting reports. You'll see these from Minnesota, where we definitely see something in the skies above. Could this be part of the satellite? It could be but we have to remember that when it comes to things from out in space making contact with the planet Earth, actually making the way through the atmosphere, it happens about 20,000 times per year. 
So there's a variety of stuff it could possibly be. 
 
 
Is it possible? Certainly, by all means. But is there a way that NASA's going to be able to tell, without any question, that this thing specifically is connected with that satellite? It's impossible to say.Today's Shoutout goes out to Ms. Baran's class at the St. Jude School in Mountain Top, Pennsylvania.
 
Which of these North African country is Libya? If you think you know it, then shout it out.
Is it A, B, C or D? You've got three seconds, go.
 
 
On this map, the nation labeled C is Libya, which is more than 90 percent desert or semi-desert. That's your answer, and that's your Shout out.
 
Libya's new leaders say they want to make sure that all regions in that country are represented in Libya's new government but they have to figure out just what that government's going to look like.
 
The National Transitional Council, the NTC, is holding three days talks about the formation of Libya's new government. The group says putting the government together could take up to a week. Last week, one member of the NTC said the group won't announce its new government until the fighting is over in towns that are still loyal to former Libyan leader, Moammar Gadhafi.
 
Remember, Gadhafi is  out of power, but the battles for controls over the country are still going on. Fighters on both sides are still being killed our wounded.
 
 
Hopping 5 across the Mediterranean 6 Sea to Spain, where the region of Catalonia is beginning a new era today, it's one where the century's old tradition of bullfighting is no longer allowed. The regional government voted last year to ban bullfights after an animal rights group got 180,000 signatures on a petition. The opinions on both sides of bullfighting are pretty strong. It has a long tradition in Spain.
 
 
It 's inspired artists and writers, like American writer Ernest Hemingway, for instance, and it's something that many Spaniards consider an important part of their culture. The people on the other side of this debate argue that it's cruelty against the bulls.
They're hoping this leads to similar bans in other parts of Spain. Right now, this only affects Catalonia. Bullfighting is still legal in most of the rest of the country.
