Yo, Government, Give Me Some Money!

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2011/04/21/states-fared-unemployment-aid-glance/


This article talks about how the National Unemployment Benefits applications went down, but in many states, it increased. For example, in California, there were up 26 thousand applications which was due to the backlog of previous applications. This shows that more people are becoming unemployed in some states, but  overall the unemployment is slowly coming to an end. This doesn't mean that there are less people on unemployment, it just means that in this four week period, there were 26 thousand applications  for unemployment. That doesn't include the billions of people on unemployment currently.

Should it stay or should it go now

http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/04/19/6495853-the-donald-trumped-on-abortion-question

So there's this thing called abortion. Abortion is...disposing of a fetus prior to giving birth in the goal of preventing a child from being born. In my terms abortion is murdering a child. This article talks about how, in an interview, Donald Trump was "stumped" with the abortion question, however the place of which I obtained this information is so far liberal, they put their own spin on things. A simple question was asked of Donald about privacy. Donald said yes there is privacy in the Constitution. Then the interviewer tied in abortion with privacy. Let me put my opinion in here on this topic. Privacy is what you do inside your home and personal life. I don't have a doubt in my mind that people are entitled to some privacies such as who they want to have sexual intercourse with or who they talk on the phone with or what they talk about or even what they research on the internet so long as it doesn't 'present a clear and present danger'. Abortion presents a clear and present danger. What if our Founding Fathers were aborted? We would not be a free country right now. What if your parents were aborted? You wouldn't be reading this. What if Mary had an abortion? Jesus Christ would not have been born (if you believe in such knowledge). The Declaration of Independence states that All Men Are Created Equal. If I'm created equally as the baby produced by two students at Cardington-Lincoln High School of which to be anonymous, then why did I get to live, while that baby was murdered? The Declaration also states that we have certain unalienable rights such as life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. What is Life? Life is what we veiw around us. Life is that of living things, such as a fetus. How are the fetuses given that right? What is the pursuit of happiness? Pursuit of happiness means being able to go out in the world and find something that makes you feel good. I doubt that people feel good when they die. What is Liberty? Liberty is freedom from control. That fetus is being controlled by the mother, how is that liberty? Now you may be able to place these concepts for the mother. Let me show you why that is wrong. Jeffery Domer was made 'happy' by killing and eating people. That violates laws, so you cannot do that. Murder is against the law, therefore abortion should be too. I'm out of time and my forearms are hurting from typing, but as you can tell, I'm anti-abortion, or in better terms, Pro-Life.

Book of Tym

I read this 'book' about the life of Tym. I thought it was clever and kind of made me chuckle. The first page has a 3 panel page. In the first panel, "Tym" says his name and that he is the last person alive. The next panel has a bunch of stick figures running past him in the distant and that is it. The 3rd panel says "Hi I'm Tym and I have a lying problem. The next page has 3 panels as well. The one panel has Tym running from a pirate with a book in his hand and a girl in the front reading a book. The next panel has Tym running from a robber with a book in his hand and the girl in the front reading a book, looking agitated. The last panel is Tym running from a creature and the girl yelling out "You know they are just books, right?" and with a thought bubble saying "He takes things so seriously". At first I didn't understand the library scene until I read the end, then I noticed the details. It was clever, and my sense of humor found it hilarious.

So my book is titled "A Better Tomorrow" and my username is cjp242011 in case you can't find it :)
It's pretty dandy I must admit :).

Technology at it's finest!

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/as_japan_earthquake

My title may be a bit deceiving. The nuclear power plant in Japan that has been leaking radiation has been classified as the highest level that it can be. It is now a 7, where it was just a 5 earlier this week. We need to devise a new technological machine to be able to clean up the radiation leak, instead of sawdust and newspaper shreddings. That's all this week about the technology that we have currently, and need to re-up.
