Police are now saying that the shooting could have been prevented and they could have saved a lot more lives. Second, we learned and examined a new rule at a school in Colorado on the game, Tag. The school is now banning the game, Tag because students are saying that they are being chased and forced to play along.

Finally, the last topic we learned was about people who work in office surroundings who are spending most of their work time on MySpace or Facebook.

The cnn news video today was pretty interesting. It has been a while since we don’t text about the cnn video. Today I analyzed about how the panel released its report on the virginia tech students. It said that they derived a point of blame to the virginia tech staff. That was due for not maintaining the campus safe. Another thing I saw was about the myspace and facebook web sites. People examined about how those websites affect the work of office employers. They spend more time in those sites than they spend doing their work. I also saw about how in an elementary school they banned tagging. They did this because it causes conflict and problems between students. Another thing is about the big tomato fight called La Tomatada. I also saw about how today is the second anniversary of hurricane Katrina. It says about how it is hoped for that things get better.

I read about the Virginia Tech shooting and how the governor is blaming Virginia Tech officials for the way they maintained the onset during the horrific shooting spree last spring. The report said that if they would have analyzed the situation quicker, with more information following the first two shootings that they would have saved lives, but in the end 33 people died including the gunman. I also read about people who are at work but are on social websites all the time instead of actually working. One lady said that she worked 7.5 hours and 5 hours she was on a website called Facebook. It definitely affected the way they work because they obviously had enough time to be on these websites were other people could conversate and text and email each other pictures while “working.” The news people said that they examined top U.K. firms that ban the use of these sites. The TUC spokesman said it was the wrong approach. I also read about the elementary students at Discovery Canyon Elementary who derived an appreciation for the game “tag.” Unfortunately the district in Colorado decided to ban the game of tag, due to the complaints of students that said they were chased around supposedly against their own will.

They state that there have been many complaints fro the children who attend the school. They have also said that there have been many arguments and fights between kids who participate in playing tag. Principal states that if the kids don’t play tag there will be less arguments or fight s made. I believe that they shouldn’t band tag because there are students who really enjoy to play tag with others. And there will always be arguments between kids because it something normal. But maybe the school should teach their students how to act when they are in an argument with another student.

Virginia Tech is still under investigation after the tragedy. With a panel releasing a report with recommendations to avoid similar tragedy's, they expect to make many more suggestions and more examinations for safety concerns for the university. A panel, derived from Virginias governor, blamed Virginia Tech’s officials for the way things were handled during the shootings last spring. The Panel also said that some lives could’ve been saved if it wasn’t for the “lack of communication at the university”. The school says something else. The school president says that the shooting were unprecedented. Ultimately Seung-Hui Cho was responsible for the carnage. 33 people died, including the gunman. Cyber-slacking? Experts say 2 million people use social networking sites at work. This issue has been labeled from some employers as a 21st century problem. Myspace has been affected by one of those problems. Some employers are just telling their employees to not use any of those website networking sites during work hours, obviously if you want to maintain you job. An expert also added that the more friends you have, the more time you want to spend with them, the more communication you do. Try not to spend any other time at work, other than work time. It is true. More people spend time on the internet browsing and chatting with friends, through messages typed in text, rather than working.

The news video we saw today was firstly about the shooting at Virginia Tech. It was also about how people at work are cyber slacking. They are just wasting time going on websites like myspace and facebook. There was another story about the banning of tag in certain schools. The kids will no longer derive the game of tag. There was also the celebration that certain countries maintain. It is a tomato fight. I just hope that this tomato fight doesn’t affect the probability of people fist fighting. Going into more detail of the main story, the Virginia Tech Shooting, officials were talking about all of that could have been prevented if they would just of analyzed the situation better. I think it would have really made a difference if they just examined It a little more. Well this is my summary about the CNN news, I hope you liked my text.

Today I Analyze about that to much of net working sites like my space and other sites bother people at work. Like when they get a text message than they reply to the message and then so on and so on. People can not work like that. It is making a big distraction and affecting the biasness. I also learn about that people were complaining about banning tag at reassess because there kids are being chased by there own will. It is not a big deal. Just because they don’t want to be it they will go have to try to tag someone else. Not to many parents cared. Most of the kids derive playing tag. Then I learned about that at the school at Virginia Tech, that the police squad went in the school the wrong way. They should of examine it more carefully. A lot of people died even the shooter So they could maintain how many people died in that shooting. if they would of thought about it a lot of lives would be saved. At leased now they know what to do in a situation like that again. So that is what I learned.

Today I have watched and analyzed the CNN student news. I have learned about a deadly weekend shooting in Wisconsin and how it has affected the people. This happened on a Sunday morning. An off-duty sheriff’s deputy went on a rampage which left several teens dead and another injured. Six dead and three of them students oat Crandon High School. They were shot by fellow grad and rookie sheriff’s deputy Tyler Peterson. The victims range from age fourteen to twenty, one of them was Peterson’s former girlfriend. The mother of Lindsey the ex said that she was 14 years old. Authorities said that following an argument early Sunday morning Peterson stormed into this home where a group had gathered for a party and then fired around thirty shots then fled the scene. This town is small of just 2,000 people and it certainly had a huge impact on the town. I think this is so terrible. I wonder what could have made him do this. I think that he had problems and police officials should really focus on the type of people they let in to be officers, they are supposed to protect not to kill innocent people.
