Man in Cruise scam is apparent suicide. There was a scam to extort more than 1 million dollars from Tom Cruise. It was for the actor’s stolen wedding photos. Well, the man that had agreed to plead guilty in the plot was simply found dead, in his home. David Schmidt was under house arrest. In sequence, He also faced 2 years in prison. Authorities verify he committed suicide. His boy was found Friday after police noticed his tracker had not moved and he had not checked in, says Lt. Anthony Lopez.
I believe he did it out of fear. He was probably thinking it would be way worse in prison than if he were dead. So he might have decided to handle it himself, or maybe he was just too guilty.
I find it interesting that he killed himself over two year, it is not even that much compared it most prison sentencings.
Gas Prices All Over The Map ♥.
This morning I read an article on the sequence that gas prices are going up to. To verify rumors, gas prices have lowered 18% since their all-time high of $3.50 three months ago. This whole time, oil prices have been raising, which would have driven the gas prices higher than they are now. Gas is now at an average of below $3 which makes it look like a bargain. The average is actually $2.86, which is down $0.08 from last week and $0.24 since a month ago. In some places, gas could vary between $0.30 a gallon for that same grade of gas in different stations. In some gas stations, it is said that the sales in convenience stores and gas stations with car washes allow them to sell gas cheaper. It is also that it could also be the newly opened gas stations with the high prices that are part of this outrage.
Personal Reflection ♥.
I don't like reading about how the government is basically punking everyone on gas prices. Even if people learn these facts, we are not going to do anything about it, people would rather leave it alone then fight it.
Taliaban meets with iraq
The president of Afghan Hamid Karzai wants too meet with the Taliban leader to discuss negation with him. Yesterday a suicide bomber was in the area and blew up a take and 30 Afghan soldiers and 10 civilians. He wants to negotiate the strengthen of his country with the Taliban. To simplify these turn of events is that you have to make peace with enemies to make friends. I think this will be good for building the middle eastern. The people in that country have been through so much that they need some one (president) to come in and make peace with the enemies so they can unify and be whole again. The truth is the frequency of the country is becoming unstable.
San Diego Union Tribune: School struggles under rising federal standards.
The United states will verify a rule that no child will be left behind, and will have a chance to attend school. The federal pass rate goes up this year while other schools nation wide continue to fall short of current pass rates even after extensive forms. The pass rate will simply rise until it reaches 100 percent in 2014. In this time federal law reaches to local schools more than ever! The no child left behind law act is a 670 page book on governing high schools. The 5 in a half year old law has brought all its attention on the students that have been long overlooked.
I think that the no child left behind rule is a good idea. I think that it is good that the government is trying to help out the kids get ready for graduating from high school.
It is interesting that the whole book on school government is up to 670 pages long. Another interesting fact is that more than half of the students were having problems. The sequence of events that the government will have to go through first is making the kids take a test.
- The San Diego Union Tribune
- The week in Mexico
- The article that I read in the newspaper was about what happened in Mexico this past week. First it said that a mural that was believed to be lost nearly 50 years ago is the centerpiece for an exhibit marking 50 years since the death of Diego Rivera. Adela Navarro Bello, co-editor of Tijuana's weekly zeta newspaper, won the international press freedom prize from the New York based committee to protect journalist. Mexican lawmakers have approved an investigation of former president Fox amid allegations that he may have illegally enriched himself during his 2000-06 presidency. I also read that an airplane carrying more than 3 tons of cocaine crashed Monday in Tixkokob in Yucatan state after being chased by military helicopter. Hundreds of federal preventive police were sent to Tijuana in response to two attacks Monday night against state and federal law enforcement officials that left an officer and a civilian dead. Three Mexican minors that were detained in California on suspicion of smuggling drugs stole a US border patrol car while still wearing handcuffs and drove it across the border to Mexico.
- I think that this article is very interesting. I think its pretty fun that all these things happened in just this week. That is why I love Mexico.
- One interesting thing that I learned is that the three minors took a border patrol car to Mexico.
I was reading a really interesting article in the newspaper. The article was about a new bill that if approved would mean that all interrogations done by authorities would need to be recorded. The bill would simplify the lives of both the prosecutors and the suspects. By recording the interrogation the judges and the jury would be able to verify any doubt that they would have and be left with no doubt on the fact that the confession was forced out of the suspect or if it truly real. Various cases have been taken into consideration like for example San Diego’s case involving the murder of 12 year old Stephanie Crowe in January of 1998. Her brother, then 14, had been taken as prime suspect and interrogated. In the interrogation the boy was forced and persuaded to confess to the murder of his sister. Then it was discovered that the confessions were coerced out of the boy through some video footage. This sequence of events just helps to prove that videotaping at confessionals is a lot safer for the suspect and the authorities too.
WAR WEARY ARMY UNIT SET FOR REST, BUT HARDLY AT EASE.
Today i read about Iraq and how they have been trained to get used to humvees and being up and alert all the time, and gallons of gatorade.Laughter at absurd and 4 am raidsinto intimate Iraqi bedrooms.this is iraq for the 3,300 soldiers in the tenth mountain division and 2nd brigade and many have come to the realization that it now feels more like home than home ever will.
no other brigade in the army has spent more days deployed since september 11 2001 and with only a few weeks to go before ending their 15 month tour these soldiers are eager to go.
I think that this is kind of not good though because the soldiers are getting real used to life out in iraq and if they do get to come back to their families they arent going to be used to it and are going to have to get used to it.
this is iraq for the 3,300 soldiers in iraq.
Simple things big changes
Simple tests can predict an early risk of any problems with your heart for your future. Concerning if you have any of the usual heart attacks, high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol, or history of smoking you may be at a greater risk of some kind of heart health risk. This new test seems to state whether how you are effected when excursing and how fast your heart beats during the movement and how long it’ll take for you heart beat to come back to normal. The simple test is taken on a tread mill test, reviewing on a person’s stress. Women who scored low one the stress test are said to be 13 times likely of developing heart disease than the other women who are much healthier and scored a higher level on the test. This test can e take at doctors office for $150, but you can also find results on your own. I believe that this is a great way to get started to a health life, although it is very expensive. For those who wouldn’t like to pay that amount you can count your heart beat for 15 seconds after an exercise of aerobics.
Today I have read an article in the union tribune. This article is called U.S. Army considered radioactive poisons use. In Washington in one of the longest held secrets of the Cold War the U.S army explored the potential for using radioactive poisons to assassinate important individuals. It was approved at the highest levels of the Army in 1948 the effort was a well hidden part of the military pursuit using radioactive materials form atomic bomb making to contaminate swaths of enemy land or target military bases. Military historians who have research the broader radiological warfare program said that they had never seen evidence that it included pursuit of an assassination weapon. Targeting public figures has been done before. Last year an unknown assailant used a tiny amount of radioactive polonium to kill Kremlin critic Alexander Litvinenko in London. I think that they should really look into this radioactive thing because I don’t think that it is the way to do things. This is not safe and only opens doors to more horrible weapons.
