Will the chargers win

The game day is set for Sunday channel 8. This will show if the chargers have what it takes to come back from two embarrassing loses. The chargers look the same as if they were two seasons ago. Last week they took a lost to Brett Favre and the packers. This week all the answers are facing towards the chargers. They have had a trouble with the chiefs before but speculators are facing towards the chargers the way I see it is that it could be anybody game. I know that this is going to be a struggle to win against the chargers the number one team last year. Then again the chargers are showing that they can not dominant in the second quarter. The matches up that you should look for is that of the Gates and Gonzalez who will dominant the game better.

- The San Diego Union Tribune
- School struggles under rising federal standards
- The article that I read today was about schools and the minimum pass rate. This article talks about the no child left behind act. This act gives students the chance to attend another school, offer publicly funded private tutoring, and even replace the staff. It says that the federal minimum pass rate goes up this year. Meanwhile schools like balboa elementary and other schools continue to fall short even after extensive reforms. The pass rate will rise until it reaches 100% in 2014. it is expected that many more local schools will have to undertake federal reforms. Congress is considering amending no child left behind. Two years ago the plan forced principal Sylvia Gonzalez in balboa elementary to replace 70% of her teachers.
- I think that this is an interesting article. I think that this is a great plan to improve the knowledge of the country. This plan has already given us great improvement.
- One interesting thing that I learned is that the plan is 5 and ½ years old.

San Diego union tribune:"War weary Army unit set for rest, but hardly at ease."

In the article I read today it talked about the 3,300 soldiers that are apart of the war in Iraq. The record shows that no other brigade in the army has spent more days deployed since sept.11, 2001. Yet there are only a few weeks from ending their 15 month tour, and the soldiers are eager to go. Some soldiers are nervous about what there minds might take with them after leaving the war. Many soldiers will leave the war without friends they had made, and others are going home with family members that do not remember there names. A soldier had also mentioned the death of a lieutenant who had shot and killed himself lying on his bed.
I think that it is disturbing that people are killing themselves because of what they are going through in Iraq, and the people who are afraid to go back home because they have bad thoughts in there head from what they have seen at the war. I also think that it weird that a lieutenant would kill himself right before he is about to go back home.
The most thing that I thought was interesting about the article is that more soldiers spent more time deployed then soldiers in sept.11

L.A. PROSECUTORS CAN’T WIN ‘BIG ONE’
DA’S RECORD WEAK IN CELEBRITY CASES

Jurors’ were unable to agree on a verdict in Phil Spector’s case last week and a mistrial was decided. Two other cases that have the same outlook is Robert Blake’s case when he was found not guilty in the murder of his wife. Also, O.J. Simpson’s case when he was acquitted in less than 4 hours on charges of killing his wife and her male friend. Laurie Levenson, a former federal prosecutor, said big cases are hard to find that person guilty. Many people think that the outcome of Simpson’s case was the reason that Gil Garcetti, the district attorney during Simpson’s case, was voted out of office. Steve Cooley is now his successor. Cooley, whose second term ends in 2008, is eligible for a third term. There is a bigger conviction rate on those celebrity cases that involve car crashing and drunk driving. Phil Spector was a behind-the-scenes person, not very well known.

I think that a lot of celebrities get away with theses charges because they have money. As everyone says, money makes the world go round. They are winning these cases because they are just too famous.

The jury was stuck with a 10-2 favor of finding Spector guilty.

Bill would mendate recording suspects.

Arnold Schwarzeneggar is making the choice to make it mandatory for recordings to be made in interrogation rooms. Due to the fact that 12 year old Stephanie Crowe in Escondido was stabbed and her brother along with a friend confessed to the stabbing, an interrogation room gave proof that they did not commit the crime. Arnold Schwarzeneggar is on the verge of making it manditory to record peoples confessions. Arnold fears that the confusing language would create technical loopholes that mgiht allow criminals to avoid punishment. 10 other states along with the district of Columbia are requiring police to record interrogation rooms.

The recording in the rooms is a good idea, but it is also dumb for everyone to know that they are being recorded. I think the rooms will only be good for the people that are scared to get arrested who will eventually tell the truth. Younger people who havent gotten into too much trouble will fall for it, but older people and young ones who are strong at keeping the truth in will take the blame for others and look as if they did the crime.

Today I read about FBI looks into bomb threats at stores. There was large grocery and discount stores in at least 11 states have been targeted in the past week by a caller who threatens to blow up shoppers and workers with a bomb if employees fail to wire money to an account overseas law enforcement authorities said yesterday. The FBI and police are investigating similar bomb threats at more than 15 stores across the country including a Vons supermarket in Vista on Friday. He often claims to be able to see inside the store but officials believe he was making it up. The first of the treats that federal investigators are aware of came Aug. 23 at a Safeway in sandy Ore. They called the incident a robbery attempt that was part of a nationwide scam. The man claimed he could see some workers standing up and order them to sit down.

I think that it was wrong to do that cause that is a lot of people to kill.
The people that were in the store should think of something to do to them.
Will I think that it is good to see all the people at out of life will that’s all I got to say.

Today i read abou a million doller house in which a man named Tom Ennis lives in and loves gadgetry. He works on his house every weekend, or at least trying to make his house work for him. "This is just temporary he said, he was standing on the the roof looking down on a row of glass and stucco sided houses and hugging the shoreline three stories below. He was holding a 25 foot piece of pvc pipe, which he dipped over the side of the roof until it hung parallel to he house but it works pretty well at the moment. he is a 65 year old and he has a serious gadget habit, when he turned on the valve high pressure water jets erupted from a series of nozzles lining the plastice tube. pipe in hand.he walked his newfangled sprinkler around the perimeter of the house anda weeks worth of saltwater deposits bird droppings and dirt vanished.
"it wont leave any water spots because all the water in the house is filtered to remove impurities.

I think that that is pretty good because instead of spending money on some car or something he actually is trying to make his house clean itself. Even though it is expensive, it is for something good and he can afford.

Tome Ellis stood at his 1.2 million doller house in a clear elevator.

I was reading this article in the newspaper that I thought was really interesting. The article was about a case in Oceanside. This happened Friday of last week in the tracks near Wisconsin Ave. What happened was that the railroad inspector received a call of emergency at 11:45 pm. The emergency call was placed due to an indication that there had been a failure in the track lines. It so happens that investigators are now regarding the incident as intentional. After an investigation officers believe that the lines were tampered with on purpose. The investigation proved to be futile since they have no suspects to blame the incident on. Yet the person that did this wanted to cause a great amount of disaster since the derailment could have been fatal for the passengers boarding the train. Yet thanks to the premature notification of the incident all catastrophe was prevented.

Prison health car coats skyrocket as inmate population grows older
New research of prison cost for inmates have increased dramatically. Since most of the inmates in men’s prisons are older due to tough sentencing mostly in southern states. Most of the inmates who are elderly have to be treated with care or have to use walkers or a wheelchair. Research states that an average of one inmate a week dies because of disregard or malpractice. As many as 66 inmates died last year with the cause of poor medical care. The percentage of detainees held in federal and state prison ranked from the age of 55 and older has increased by 33% from 2000 to 2005. as for the states in the south region, the rate of growth has increased by 145% since 1997. Estimations have placed the annual outcome cost of housing for a prisoner with $18,000 to $31,000 a year. My question is, later on when they have no money to pay for the care of the inmates what will there plan be? Will we have to pay higher taxes. Or are they just going to let them die in there. Why don’t they have inmates help the community by sending them to clean somewhere. I don’t know. But I know that this situation is going to get worse until they do what they have to do.

Today I have read a tragic article in the union tribune it is called: Fall from hot-air balloon kills Oceanside woman. An Oceanside woman was killed yesterday when she toppled 70 feet out of a hot air balloon to the ground during the annual Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta in New Mexico. Three other women were injured. Rosemary Wooley was in the gondola with three friends when it tipped and tossed her out. She was pronounced dead a short time she arrived at the hospital. The other women are still in the hospital being treated for broken bones and injuries. The officer said that the balloon got stuck in a utility line. They were moving to get it un stuck and it tipped. People who saw it were really said because they could not help her. I think that this is so sad. How her friends saw her die and could not do anything about it. I think that this unfortunately could happened to everyone and you should appreciate life.
