Today in the news I read about how The European Central Bank halted its campaign of interest-rate cuts yesterday. The bank of England cut by a half-point to a record low 1 percent as it tries to get the ailing British economy back on track. The decisions by both banks marked their decidedly different approaches to the global economic woes that have sent financial markets and led to thousands of layoffs, reduced worker hours and factory shutdowns across Europe. The ECB, central bank for the 16 countries that use the euro, has been more cautious in cutting rates, which can stimulate growth by lowering borrowing costs for businesses and consumers but can stoke inflationary pressures down the line. I think that what the banks in Europe is a good idea. Britian’s 1.5 percent contraction in the fourth quarter of 2008 was the worst since 1980.
Today I read about how there was three attempts of kidnapping in the area of the schools of Poway Unified Schools. For the past eight days there has been attempts of kidnapping with different cars and suspects too. They differentiate in some ways, but it happen around the same area. On Tuesday a man ordered a 11-year-old girl to get in his vehicle. When he follow her, she ran into some apartments and call the cops. The girl clarify with the cops that there was a gun on the dashboard of the car. The incident happen around 4pm making the schools around there go on lockdown!!!!! Than another case when three men forced a 12-year-old girl into a vehicle and they drove for like 20 minutes before they let her go unharmed. Well that’s stupid…
Today in the news President Obama made comments towards the Republicans that are making complains about the economies stimulus bill. President Obama says don’t use the same conservative arguments if your not going to bring any new fresh ideas to the table. He calls for immediate action to an ongoing problem that will get worse if left un checked. In local news their were two local kidnapping attempts of little kids in grade school this discusses me because why would you want to hurt a little kid that messed up.
The article I read this morning was about an investigation on possible kidnap attempts. There has been 2 attempts so far. The first attempt was on an eleven year old girl who was walking home when a man ordered her to get into his car. The girl then walked into some apartment complex's where she called police. She described that the man was driving a convertible and that he had a gun on the dashboard of the car. The second attempt was on a 12 year old girl who was walking when three men forced her into an older-model white utility van. They drove with the girl around for about 20 minutes. They dropped her off unharmed.
I hope that parents learn from this and start being more careful. Hopefully they also catch these crazy men. I’m glad that none of these girls were seriously hurt in anyway.
An interesting fact that I read was that two people also offered a girl a ride home in a motor home but she refused.
In today’s morning blog I read about how the chargers announced yesterday that they will wear a commemorative patch during the 2009 season because of the 50th anniversary of the AFL. A 1963 modeled uniform will also be worn for two games by the chargers because they were one of the eight original AFL teams. Back when the chargers were a AFL team in 63’, they won the only franchise’s title championship. The 1963 uniforms will be worn in a home and away game against Denver, Kansas City, Oakland or Tennessee. Those teams are the original former AFL teams on the charger schedule. Both teams will wear former AFL uniforms.
According to the San Diego Union Tribune the Somalia pirates has once again succeeded in holding yet another ship for ransom. The hijacking happed in the area of the coast of Nairobi, Kenya. This time it was a shipment contained soviet-era and other heavy artillery. The pirates demanded for $3.2 million dollars for the safety of the crew members and the return of the weapons on board. The Somalia pirates are said to be linked to Al-Qaeda in the middle east. This statement is still to be clarified by authorities. I would believe this because in order to get money the white-controlled government owns their only other way to make money is to group up with another group that will promise them the necessities to live. The hijacking's brought an unpredicted navel response from 7 other countries; India, Britain, France, Germany, China, Saudi Arabia, South Korea.
