I believe that this article exhibits Timeliness because in recent events there have been many Islamic extremists who emphasize their views on women's rights. This new addition can help all young girls feel more empowered and spread the message of equality among races and genders.

A novelty is represented in this article because it is unusual for the South-East and Middle-East to get an earthquake. While it may have happened in the past, this disaster is not common. The casualties will interest the public because these counties are Third World and therefore will not have the best resources to help them recover.
