Schools got What???
http://www.cleveland.com/open/index.ssf/2011/03/schools_local_governments_take.html
The new budget that Kasich has proposed would give the Schools an 11.5% cut. This would force schools into proposing new tax levies, which would cause a lot of people in the community to become upset with the district since no one WANTS to pay more taxes, unless you're a teacher. This may seem like a severe cut, which it is, but people depend upon the government too much. Schools should be able to find a way to cover their costs or cut costs on a lot of the expenses. For example, a school like Cardington that has very few students, does not need a 1:2(exaggeration) teacher to student ratio. There are too many classes that are core classes that have roughly 10 students in it. If we combine students that are taking the same courses, we could reduce staff, reducing expenses. This would mean a lot of jobless teachers, I understand. That's why if we take more money away from Cardington, and give it to a big school like Gahana, we could have a 25:1(estimate) instead of 100:1(exaggeration again). That's just my view on the proposed budge in which schools would lose more money, but that money, in my opinion, will be sent to new programs that will benefit even more than having overstaffed schools.

Radioactive what?!?!?! Current Event
http://www.foxnews.com/world/2011/03/25/dangerous-breach-suspected-japan-nuclear-plant/
So there were these two workers that were walking in radioactive water, and suffered from injuries. What this means is the Nuclear Plant in Japan that was damaged during the Tsunami everyone has heard about is releasing radiation. This will affect everyone in the world because it's in open air and will travel. This shows that it is now in the water supply, so who knows what is safe to drink and what is not. Just Kidding about that.

Websites that are VERY useful :)
http://www.sparknotes.com/
This website works as a great way to 'review' the books you have read for English class. It also helps you with studying for the ACT. The ACT is an important test because most colleges will look at it and determine if you are fit for their college.

Bill Nye the Science Guy is an amazing role model. He is such a genius and really knows how to put life into words that no one can understand. If you want to thank someone, you can send an E-Card. Bill Nye can also explain the world to you. Try it sometime :).

The only USA Current Event I Could Find.
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/03/17/proposed-federal-law-brakes-state-age-limits-teen-drivers/
It took me forever to find an event unrelated to the Japan incident, but this talks about how the driving license age will be upped to 18. This means all you kiddies that are under the age of 18 but are older than 16 are out of luck. I can't wait because you young drivers (everyone preceding as well) are terrible.

Being the first one done feels GREAT! I thought it was a good assignment for me because I know what I'm doing with the computer, but for someone that needs more assistance, it would take more time. All in all it SHOULD help people's understanding in the use of researching the Internet.

Check it, Current Event
http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2011/03/10/tons-dead-fish-pulled-california-marina/?test=latestnews
This article talks about the dead fish that just appeared in the California King Harbor. There are roughly 1 million dead sardines in the Harbor. Marine Experts believe that the cause of death was fleeing a predator or some other reason, and gathering in a small place of the harbor where they used up all the oxygen in the water and died. Nobody is certain as to what happened, but they are certain they need to clean it up before they rot. It is expected to cost about $100,000 to clean up the fish.

Weekly Event
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/03/02/ohio-senate-passes-restrict-public-unions/
My Weekly event is about yet again the Senate Bill 5. The Ohio Senate passed the bill that is restricting public unions. My opinion on Senate Bill 5 is that we no longer actually need the unions. Back when labor was bad, and they had no laws governing the labor, we DID need them. However, in today's world, there are many laws that set up what you can and cannot do in the work force. So now, we need to start eliminating these unions that have better benefits than that of a non-union member. What does this mean? Well it's simple. Government employees don't have to pay for as much health, dental, eye care, etc. as others. Who pays for it then, you may ask. Simple. You do. Your parents do. Widows do. Anyone who pays taxes, pay for benefits. Therefore, I strongly stand behind that of our Ohio Senate in passing this bill. The bill will go to the House and if passed there, it will go to the Governor, who already said he would sign it. There you have it, Cameron's political update.
