So, for extra credit in my physics, i can submit 2 articles that are physics related and published within the previous three months with a page summary but i don't know what magazines i can find some. I don't think i can get them off the net so this is going to be hard because i don't have physics weekly magazines lying around =/
 
Physics news on Phys.org
try your local reference library for physics magazines, you'll be suprised how many there are. My favourite is Scientific American.
 
SA has some full-length articles online. For instance: http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?chanID=sa006&colID=1&articleID=000CCC72-2AED-1264-980683414B7F0000
You may want longer, more in-depth articles, but there are lots of places to find physics news articles online, for instance:
http://www.sciencedaily.com/directory/Science/Physics
NASA has rather short but usually very interesting news articles
http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/news_archive.htm
And I would check around the rest of NASA's site- it's huge.
