MONDAY-- Sarah Clinton is getting married. This is Bill Clinton’s young daughter. The wedding will be just over two million dollars. This wedding is extremely larger than her parents wedding some years back. She is excited about the wedding. It will be a large wedding with a band and everything. The venue is said to be beautiful. I think it is cool that she is able to have her dream wedding. Two million is way too much though. She could be using that money on something else. There are a lot of things going on in the economy that just a fourth of that would be able to help tremendously.
Monday- Today I read about A Rancho San Diego man found dead on a rocky hillside near Alpine after being missing for weeks died of injuries he apparently suffered when he lost his footing and tumbled down the steep incline, authorities said Friday. Though the family of 47-year-old Steven Bruce Smith feared he was planning to kill himself at the time of his disappearance in late June, the county Medical Examiner's Office ruled his death was accidental. An autopsy determined that Smith died of blunt-force head injuries seemingly suffered in an unintentional fall on the boulder-strewn slope where his body was found. Heat stroke was a contributing factor, according to the county agency. A volunteer search team working with the Sheriff's Department spotted the body Thursday morning on the rugged incline near Pine Valley Bridge, where Smith's disabled blue pickup truck had been found two weeks earlier. I think this is really sad and I hope the family is okay.
Blake-Monday- In today’s reading I read an article about Mexican authorities disagreeing whether a man is suspect in car bombings. A man who local police believe was responsible for a fatal car bombing in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. The July fifteenth car bombing claimed the lives of two police officers and a paramedic. Six people were injured in the blast. Carlos Vasquez Barragan, a suspected leader of La Linea was detained after a shootout with the Mexican military on Thursday near the city of Madera. During that shootout, which included the use of heavy arms, grenades, dynamite and AK-47s, the military captured him. Seguro did not elaborate Sunday on why municipal police believe Vasquez Barragan is responsible for the July fifteenth car bombing. Shortly after the car bomb incident, Seguro described it as an attempt to draw police officers to the area where the car bomb was set.
Tuesday- Today I read about The body of an Oceanside woman was discovered in the trunk of her abandoned car Monday afternoon, a few hours after she had been reported missing by her live-in boyfriend. The 38-year-old woman was reported missing at 11:21 a.m.. The boyfriend then searched surrounding neighborhoods for her car and discovered it shortly before 2 p.m. near the intersection of Mission Gate Drive and Alta Vista Court in Oceanside. Police officers discovered the woman's body in the trunk of the car. Police were investigating the case as a suspicious death, according to Oceanside police Lt. Leonard Mata. "We don't know yet if it's a homicide or a suicide.“ I think it was a homicide but who knows we’ll find out soon but if it was a suicide I just want to know why would she kill herself in her trunk of her own car? That’s just really weird to me.
TUESDAY-- There is a two-year-old that disappeared from a camp site. The FBI has been brought into the case. People are saying the young child may have walked away. They are hoping that he is found safe and alive. Searches are being done everyday. This happened in Phoenix, Arizona. This story consists of a lot of skepticism and hope that the little boy will be found. He was last seen with only a diaper on. I think they shouldn’t be putting out the possibility that this little boy just got up and walked away during the middle of the night. I hope this young boy is going to be found nice and safe. Little kids shouldn’t be going missing at all. Its not appropriate behavior for an adult to be stealing a young boy.
Blake-Tuesday- In today’s reading I read an article about Chavez threatening to cut off oil to the United States. Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez Sunday said his country will stop exporting oil to the United States if there is a military attack stemming from escalating tensions between Venezuela and Colombia. Colombia and Venezuela are at odds over accusations that Colombian rebels have found refuge in Venezuela. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, Venezuela is the fifth-largest supplier of crude oil to the United States. He accused opposition governors of being in contact with the Colombian military. Chavez said Venezuela rejected the possibility of any foreign guerrilla or paramilitary group to operate in his country. Colombia has accused Chavez of supporting the rebels. Chavez has said Colombian officials and right-wing paramilitary units have plotted his assassination. Colombia has also accused another neighbor, Ecuador, of giving refuge to rebels.
An hotel guest "Megs" posted this on the internet after visiting a hotel in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, "There are bites all over my leg!" he complains.Megs has been bitten by bed-bugs from his last night sleep, but he isn't alone there has been 67 out of 1000 treated bed-bug infestations on hotels and motels,they have increased by 80% since 2000, not too long ago, but we have to understand that there has been a lot of people without a job since not too long ago and those jobless people need money to buy a house or to rent an apartment their last choice is to stay on the streets where they get the bugs.After that they start getting more and more stable with themselves therefore their life starts to change but the problem isn't that they are going to have more and more money their next step to their American dream is renting a hotel where the bed-bugs end up.Some people think it is a hygiene problem but is not it is a requirement for the government to inspect the hotel at least once a month.Bed-bugs are being brought from outside the hotel, experts say.Bed-bugs don't carry any infections or diseases but they can itch or can cause an allergic reaction.
Wednesday- Today I read about a young woman that was accused of holding up two banks and trying to rob a third during a 90-minute crime spree must stand trial on robbery and attempted robbery charges, a judge ruled Tuesday. Victoria Rose Wilkerson, 20, faces six years and eight months in prison if convicted, said Deputy District Attorney Makenzie Harvey. The defendant allegedly robbed a San Diego Wells Fargo Bank and a Mission Federal Credit Union in Rancho San Diego on May 10, and attempted to rob a Chase Bank off College Grove that same morning. Wilkerson was arrested June 9 at a home in the 4000 block of Vandever Avenue in Grantville. In all of the holdups, the robber wearing sunglasses and a large floppy hat passed a note saying she had a gun.
Wednesday-For her 90th birthday Edna Baldwin dropped like a rock from 10,000 feet. Edna Baldwin is a great-grandmother of 10, she likes to maintain healthy working out three times a week. It was her first time skydiving, but it’s not the only thing she has done she also has gone para-sailing, hang gliding, hot air ballooning, she also bowls and plays golf. Who knew that 90 was the new 30?
Thursday- Today I read about Former high school star Jeremy Tyler and how he signed with the Tokyo Apache of Japan's professional basketball league. The team announced the signing Thursday on its official website. The 19-year-old Tyler will play for former NBA coach Bob Hill, who was hired by the team last month. Tyler, who attended San Diego High School before leaving after his junior year, signed a one-year, $140,000 contract with Israeli team Maccabi Haifa in August of 2009. He was the first American-born player to leave high school early to play professionally overseas. Some had seen Tyler as a potential No. 1 overall pick when he's eligible for the NBA draft in 2011, but those projections have softened. He left Haifa two months before the end of the season for personal reasons. I hope this guy get’s what he wants in his career because he’s doing what he wanted and finishing his goals.
THURSDAY-- There is a new OCD program. I was designed to help individuals with their obsession. OCD stands for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Cr. Jonathan Grayson has been leading this event. He has been putting them through a consistent treatment to confront their fears. He has been having people share their gum, to touching toilet seats. It isn’t appropriate for people to be living in fear. I have to say that I do have a little bit of OCD tendencies in me. I get anxiety with germs, and a few other things. If my obsessions ever got this extreme I would go through a program like this one. I think this disorder controls people lives, and I would hate to live with this disorder everyday.
Wednesday-In today’s newspaper I ran across a article regarding marijuana. Some California initiatives are trying to legalize Marijuana in the state. Petitions have been turned in with thousands of signatures saying yes to marijuana. They fell that by legalizing it, it will solve a lot of problems going on right now. They compared this situation to the conduct of the alcohol situation . Putting a ban on it will only make the problem worse. While some think this is a bad idea, legally administering it will help out or economy a lot. Improving our economy is the main element. Even while legalized there will be a set of laws controlling the drug.
Friday- Today I read about a wheel chair bound robber who says that he robbed the bank for security. He also states that he’d rather die in prison then out on the streets. That’s really abnormal for someone to say that I think that he just doesn’t want to die alone on the streets. But the question that I ask is why is that? Where is his family does he have any left? Kids maybe? There’s a lot of things going on in my mind about this old man. Also this guy has a lot of health problems that aren’t properly getting taken care of so that’s another issue he wants to be incarcerated right now because he doesn’t have great health benefits. And the last and final reason was because he was a desperate man. He was about to get thrown out of his own home so he chose to living in prison then living on the streets. In a way this guy got exactly what he wanted.

He was found guilty of war crimes and sentenced to 35 years in jail. The verdict was also convicted against humanity , torture, and murder. He pleaded guilty only because he was following by taking responsibility and only for forgiveness.

Toni Ma'ree ; Thursday - In Douai , France there is the women who has been charged with murder after she admitted giving birth to eight babies over a 17 year period in northern France. Dominique Cottrez said she hid the pregnancies and deaths from her husband. The mother is overweight but able to conceal the pregnancies. The babies were born between 1989 and 2006 but her husband had no idea she was pregnant nor what she had done to their kids. They focused on the husband so be had been charged , but he was free to go but will still be investigated. The case was only brought out because a couple found two babies in sealed plastic bags when gardening their backyard. When the two babies were found , she then told them about the other six babies that she had in their garage and all six babies were in plastic bags as well but were also covered by various objects. Cottrez killed her babies because she did not want to have anymore children and did not want to see doctors for contraceptives. But investigators were told that she really has a problem a serious problem but they were thinking that it could be the level of disordered thinking that comes with being depressed. Well that’s , that I didn’t think it was appropriate to just do that to your kids not only one but eight like wow that’s unnecessary.
