8.  Glastris, Paul.  "Let Freedom Zing! (Fourth of July Fireworks)."  U.S. News & World Report, July 7, 1997.

This article is about the history of Fourth of July celebrations using fireworks.  First, it talks about the celebrations before cheap Chinese firecrackers were imported to the U.S.  It continues to say that fireworks were relatively harmless until Americans started building them up to the strength of a stick of dynamite.  That is when the bans started.  It goes on to say that when the use of fireworks quadrupled but the injuries stayed nearly the same due to safer fireworks, some of the bans were lifted.  This will be a great help in my history section of my web page.

This source is about the definition of fireworks.  It tells what is in them and the history of them.  This will help if I want to include details like that.
