“Many Happy Returns From War”
What I read in the news paper its that on Samantha Komnenic held a unique sing among those welcoming home thousands of marines to camp Pendleton yesterday: it was written in Japanese. Holding longtime boyfriend, lance Cpl. Ernest hall, the 19-years-old Ohio state university student started crying. Joyous reunions took place all day long as about 2,200 members of the 13th marine Expeditionary Unit retuned home after seven months in Iraq. Their mission was to fight the insurgency in Anbar province, about 37 miles east of Bagdad duties ranged from clearing roadside bombs by walking down the streets, looking for tripwires, to conduct a census of the area to learn who lived where and what services they needed.
I agree with bringing the marines back because they have right to see their family.
Also I agree because they were over there more that ½ a year, and they need some kind of break.
I also agree because their families want to see them.
I think the most interesting fact its that the “government” over there its not done and they are coming back already.

Today in the union tribune I read that Barry bonds is going to face up to 30 years if the allegations against him are true. Four years ago he was convicted of using illegal steroids and other substances then lying about him taking them. Now four years later, he's still in court because they found some steroids in his home. Now he faces up to 30 years in prison.
I think its stupid, why does all major athletes get in trouble for using steroids. Don’t get mad at them because they cut their lives short.
I feel steroids are not even that big a deal because If some one wants to look bigger let them.

♫ The article I read about this morning was about a drug dealer who was shot by a border patrol. A Mexican man admitted he was a drug dealer. The man by the name of Osvaldo Aldrete Davila was shot. He got shot by a pair of U.S. border patrol agents. Osvaldo was later charged with smuggling marijuana. Mr. Aldrete was arrested at an international port of entry in El Paso. A sealed indictment issued in October accused him of committing the crimes in September and October of the year 2005. the agents who shot the man were each sentenced to more than a decade in prison.

♫Reflection:
♫The article I read about today was very interesting. I though t that when an agent is at work he can shot out on anyone who is committing a crime. I guess I was wrong that the agents don’t have the right to do anything they want to whoever they want.

♫Fact:
♫An important fact or interest that I read in this article was that I guess agents get charged for the same as if any other person was doing it.

"St. Vincent de Paul"
Well, at first when we where going to St. Vincent de Paul I didn’t know where we where going, my job was to serve food, I think I did great, what I could did better is serve the food better, not doing a mess, I feel successful in volunteering because I did almost everything right.
I think my behavior on the trip was good, I think you should act mature when you are volunteering, it wasn’t hard to behave in an appropriate behavior, I will behave the same way on the next trip. I don’t really know because I didn’t go to the museum but I guess the same behavior, act mature.
I think this it’s a good place for people that its needed and also to help homeless stand “up and keep walking (get a life)”, I also agree on this place because they have showers and a lot of stuff to help people that want to succeed. My suggestion its to go again.

Bonds indicated on perjury charges.
In the article I read in the Union Tribune I read about Barry bonds one of his main FOCUS is that the most prolific sluggers in baseball’s history, as well as the holder of the most amazing record in American sports. Three days ago he was faced with charges of perjury and obstruction as well as he lied while he was under oath. His testimony to a federal jury about four years ago about him saying he had never used steroids. Now at 43 he is facing up to 30 years in prison if he is convicted of the four perjury charges and the main one is him lying under oath. There has been a schedule change for his court date for Dec. 7 at the U.S District Court in San Francisco. Trial to be set most likely for next spring, Criminal investigator’s obtained evidence of anabolic steroids and other enhancing substances for other athletes as well.
I don’t agree that just for taking steroids they have to put him in jail for 30 years I understand that he is going to jail for lying under oath but still there is no reason that he is going to be locked up for al of that. Many athletes CONSIST of having or are using steroids and they don’t seem to do anything about it.

Marine is given 6 months for abuse
For many years, the Marines Corps have been widely known for their harsh treatment. Even though this bad treatment has been banned, it is believed throughout the Marine culture that the bad treatment is what makes the structure of a proud valued Marine. Recently there was a big issue held on against recruit-abuse in the Marine Corps history. A former drill instructor, by the name of Sgt. Jerrod M. Glass was charged on eight counts of assault, maltreatment, violating a lawful order and destruction of property. The was evidence held upon Glass where it was indicated that the abuse where impacted upon the recruits, such as using a tent pole to hit them, flashlight which was used to forcibly make workforce drink water until they could not anymore and puked, then Sgt. Glass would make them stagger in the vomit. While on trail Glass, could have faced a maximum sentence of 9 1/2 years incarcerated. There where also two other drill instructors who worked in the same platoon as Glass. Both other will have court to decide on their sentences against their charges for cruelty, assault, and disobeying orders. It has been stated that there have been 40 other drill instructors that have been punished over the past three years for misconduct. The jury in charge of Glass trail perceived the decision to sentence him with six months and will also be dropped down to the lowest rank of the Marines, while receiving a bad-conduct discharge. I really don’t know if what the was sentenced was fair, but at least they could of gave him a year. What if he doesn’t change, and keeps on doing the same once he’s out. And since there are so many other misconduct situations, I wonder will this ever be out to an end?

The story I read today was about a a guy named Yoshino who ran barefoot. He first started in balboa park a day before his birthday, when he finished he had posted up pictures in his laptop of his feet they had blisters all over his feet. Then later on Yoshino got some of his friends and he started running with them and they ran once a week for five minutes then they ran twice a week for twenty minutes. When he ran his first six miles barefoot he finished in 1 hour, 20 minutes, 45 seconds.

♥ San Diego Union Tribune
♥ This morning’s blog is based on the articles I read inside the ‘Public Eye.’ The first article was on how celebrities are getting special treatment when it comes to DUI’s. The first celebrity to get 48 hours in jail for a DUI was Nicole Richie. Yes, she did pay her fine but she still drove onto the freeway the opposite way. Another example of this is Lindsay Lohan who was sentenced to 84 minutes in jail for a DUI. But people are saying that she did not get special treatment because she met the criteria. Another article was on Hugh Hefner donation to USC Cinematic Arts. He donated $2 million and it’s going to fund a central exhibition space in the new headquarters of the school and an archival repository for student films and historic documents. The third article I read was on a judge who is fed up with rock star, Kid Rock. Kid Rock had filed against Kelly Ann, who was supposed to have embarrassed and defamed him. But while Kid Rock is the one suing, he is also the one who is deciding not to show up at court. Judge Kumar is tired of his defiance and says that just because he is a celebrity does not mean he is any more special than anyone else.
♥ Reflection; I do think that celebrity’s are stuck up nowadays and expect special treatment. But the only reason why they expect it is because they are getting it. I don’t think people can complain if they are not trying to fix the problem.
♥ One interesting fact is every day women who are between the ages 30-50 get early releases out of jail because of meeting criteria.

In the article, Prisoners not told FBI tool is ‘unreliable’, I learned of the AFFECT of imperfect technology has on how jurors EXAMINE and ANALYZE a trial. The article gives the FBI a ROLE with quite a lot of SIGNIFICANCE, the boy who cried wolf. The forensic technology in the line of fire PLOTS led anomalies which could theoretically VERIFY a bullet’s cartridge box leading them to the guilty party. The technology has not been used for over two years when the technology was deemed unreliable. The bad thing is how the FBI presented this shaky EVIDENCE with high EMPHASIS to jurors in a STRATEGY to ILLUSTRATE a negative outlook and bring those in the line of questioning to what they presumed as justice. To SIMPLIFY the ISSUE, the FBI is trying to make up for the time this evidence was used, dating back to when the technology was introduce all the way back when Kennedy was assassinated. PREVIOUS trials that INVOLE using the bullet lead technology are being revisited with an ESTIMATE of over 250 cases taking place in more than a dozen courts are either reversing or revisiting trials. The FBI is trying to MAINTAIN an APPROPRIATE air, investigating within themselves to allow re visit their trials as well as sending letters to those who could also have been wrongfully accused. Though a recent “60 minutes” was the one who brought this to light giving the FBI almost no ALTERNATIVE it is nice that the FBI has given its CONSENT in working toward a POSITIVE end.

To SUMMARIZE, the FOCUS of this article was to VOICE the problems that the FBI was able to CONSTRUCT when they presented the questionable technology as full proof. Because technology come out in a quick SEQUENCE it is hard to IDENTIFY whether the new technology will fall into a CATEGORY with a high IMPACT adding too but not justifying the FBI’s use of its information. How we are presented information, how we PERCIVE, and CONSUME it, will absolutely change the STRUCTURE of our thoughts resulting in a completely different verdict. My only hope is that the FBI keeps trying to improve itself to help those who are truly guilty come to justice and those innocent see freedom and that they do not DERIVE anything on shaky grounds that could be a major FACTOR in a verdict even if it is in just a small PERCENT.
The Article CONSISTS of one very interesting fact, that how we INTERPERET as EVIDENCE now could be thrown out the window as technology grows.

Dennis Quaid and wife Kimberly's two twin children were EXAMiNED and ANALYZED among their situation. The main FOCUS CONSiSTS of the ISSUE that two children accidently were given an overdose of blood thinner at a hospital. The twins were unable to MAiNTAiN a certain ESTiMATE of blood flow in their system. Names were not given within the TEXT. The definition of overdose is when the perscribed CONSUMiNG PERCENTAGE of dosage is taken at large amount. I think that hospitals need to CONSTRUCT a more SIMPLIFiED SEQUENCE for their STRATEGiES for their work ethics. This PERCiEVES the doctors a less of a POSiTiVE ROLE among other hospitals. I guess it is hard to IDENTiFY the SIGNiFiCANCE of younger children and the amount that they are able to CONSUME. I think that doctors should find an ALTERNATiVE to drug dosages to children within the parents CONSENT. Think of how much of an IMPACT this will put onto the world. Also, a better STRUCTURE should be shown as EViDENCE for a better world.

vocabulary worlwall


After I examined the news paper, I analyze it again, then I summarize it in my mind and I learn that many people was waiting, trying to focus on persons’ faces, to find their sons, or husbands, it was really hard to the people to maintain, some of them couldn’t and started to cry, finding out that their son or husband died could affected them a lot, some of the families that where send to the war had already received a letter with texts, and also find out that their familiar just died. There were too many positive and negative notices of the war. I believe it was going to be a big impact for the little kids to find out that their dad is dead. When some woman were looking for his husband she didn’t find him so she started to cry but a voice in her back whisper to her , and it was her husband, she said “this day its going to be very significant to me”. The park was divided in different categories from the a to the z. the structure of the little camps was very organized. The war involves a lot of people of different colors, sizes, shapes. Most of the soldiers choose to be in the army but some are alternative. On the army’s mans cloth illustrated a little eagle, that was an appropriated logo for the American army. I perceive that in the previous war there was no American people death, but after the war the suicidal attacks consumed a lot of people, there was more percentage of deaths after the war.

Union Tribune: Iraq pact implies long U.S. presence
Today I have read a short article on what bush plans to do before he leaves office. People have many questions on this subject, a particular one is “how many troops will stay in Iraq?” In earlier year Bush has signed a document saying that the military would only be there for 4 ½ years. This contract will end this year but Bush wants to go ahead and stay there for another year. He want to make sure that Iraq can stand on its own. They are also saying that they want to know if they should build permanent bases in Iraq. In July, the United States intends to finish withdrawing the five combat brigades sent this year as part of the troop buildup that has helped curb sectarian violence. Yesterday they were talking about who the American and Iraqi relationship would be once the troops are out of Iraq. I think that it is a bad thing that are troops are over there and are dying. But I also think of what would happen to the United States as a whole if the troops were to leave Iraq. I would be scared that they would plan a massive attack on the U.S. I think that we need to be careful with that, they might be planning a nuclear attack or something.
