Can you believe the spring semester is almost over? I have three med terms next week and the fact that I don’t know what the hell is going on in the class really scares me. It same like yesterday we started school and now we done. I guess it’s true what they say time waits for no one. I don’t know how or what to study. I never been this lost in my school work before, it hurts when I think about because I know that I have the ability to do my best, but right now am not giving my all. At this point all I can do is hope for the best and prepare for the worst.

New Jersey lawmakers have voted to abolish the death penalty in the state. This will make New Jersey the first sate in 40 year to outlaw capital punishment. According to the Death Penalty Information Center no one was pot to death since 1963. New Jersey Gov. Jon Corzine was in support of this bill and he sing the bill abolish the death penalty. When it was discussed that capital punishment does not prevent crime and also it could lead to innocent people being executed. It was an ongoing disputed between the republicans and democrats about this bill, because the republicans wanted police killers to be execution but democrats though different. According to the article “The Supreme Court reinstated the death penalty in 1976, and nearly 1,100 people have since been put to death”.  after looking at the pain it cause victims families and how innocent people are being put to death, it was time for a change.  

I think this is a great idea because criminals that are facing life in prison go though enough and they are dieing slowing in jail. Capital punishment is not benefiting no body it’s just a way for the united state to insure families of victims that their killer will be brought to justice. But in reality they are already dead because they are Lock up like animals. When waking up all they see are four walls and it stays that way until they die. I think that’s enough punishment, why kill them if they are already dead.

Yesterday, my music professor made some great points about the state in which music is in. Now a day anybody can become a music super star. It’s that easy because society made it that why, no one has real talent no more. They are all depended on technology. Back then it use to take years to come out with a CD, but now it takes like two months. People may ask how is that possible. Well it’s because of the society we live in, artist want fast money and they do what ever it takes to get it. This makes it difficult for some real artists who are willing to work hard and make an album that everyday people can relate to. In the next ten years, what we call real music will be no more….

Within the next year, according to the World Health Organization flu vaccine is getting a new complete overhaul to provide protection against three new and different influenza strains. They are hoping that this new vaccine will produce more result. It is up to vaccine manufacturers to produce 100 million vaccines by fall. Dr. Nancy Cox, a flu director at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, stated that there is a lot of work needed to be done in order for them to get plenty of vaccine. This year the government made a rare wrong bet on which strains would cause the most disease, some new strains arrived and the vaccine that we have is not a good match. According to the article “Scientists now are working on a solution to that technical problem, such as using a very similar virus — it's even called "Brisbane/10-like" no help provide protection. Every year the flu kills 36,000 people. Right not they can tell if the strains of flu will be deadly then usual.

 I know a lot of people who has been affected by the flu virus and they where in and out of the hospital every three days. This new vaccine that the World Health Organization is coming up with, we can only hope that it will help those who are in need of it. I can’t believe that the flu virus hospitalizes 200,000 people and kills 36,000 each year. This is very serous and some people don’t know about or if they do, they don’t take it serous. Getting the virus is not enough; we have to keep going back for check up. This subject is close to home for me and my main goal is to inform other about how dangerous this virus is to our health.

What is valentines day? i never understood the whole concept. Maybe its because i never had a good valentine. I think this day is a wast of time because one day can not determent how much you love a person. If a person love you they should be able to tell you everyday not wait for February 14 to tell you. I tell my friends and family that i love them every opportunity that i get because its important for them to know..so my question is why wait still this day? Some family members might not live to see this day you waiting for. When you think about it, its funny because when valentine day is over, everything goes back to how it was. The person who was in love with you yesterday is not so much in love. JUST SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT....HAPPY VALENTINES DAY  
                                                                                                         

We are always hearing that illegal immigrants are the main source of problems in the United State, well on Tuesday A federal judge granted a law that prohibits businesses from knowingly hiring illegal immigrants and if the business break the law their business license will be revoked.  Neil Wake, a US district Judge dismissed a lawsuit which was filed by businesses. They argue that federal immigration law severely restricts Arizona's ability to punish people who knowingly employ illegal immigrants." this law won approval last year, this law has cough the attention of many cities and they have adopt similar laws, but however in some cities the laws were rejected.  Wake stated that there is no problem with the law and it gives sufficient due-process protections to businesses. If businesses break the law the first time, their license will be suspension for ten days. second time their license will be permanently revoked. According to Wake "The law is intended to weaken the economic incentive for immigrants to sneak across the border"

To me this is a never ending subject and their is so many different points of views. When it comes to illegal immigrants  no one can uneasily say that they know how to deal with the problem, even the government don't have a answer to this problem. when you think about it is their even a problem that need to be dealt with? when u ask me , i think that without immigrants the united Stated wont be what it is today. When immigrants come to the United State they appreciate the opportunity that is being given to them and is willing to take job that most Americans would never dream of taking. So why punish them for a job well done?

The main reason why i watch this show is because i can relate to the subjects that are being focus on. If you into gossip and high school drama, this a prefect show for you to watch, i promise you wont get board.............GOSSIP GIRL COMES ON 9PM EVERY MONDAY NIGHT AND IF YOU MISS A EPISODES YOU CAN GO ONLINE TO  www.cwtv.com/show/gossip-girl..

Bill Clinton: Fix Bush education law and stated that, if his wife Hillary Rodham Clinton is elected president, shes going to change the "No Child Left Behind Act" to benefit not only students but teachers also. The Act was supported by president bush and senator Ted Kennedy. Both men did not consider the mean source of the education system, which are the teachers. Hillary Clinton was in favor of The "No Child Left Behind Act" but said that it has not been properly  financed  or run, since it was granted. Hillary want to replace The Act in order to make it more beneficial for everyone. For those who don't know The Law, requires kids to take five tests five years in a row it also allows school districts to "pick the test and the passing score". Hillary proposed "$10 billion for universal preschool, more money for special education, and incentives for teachers who work in places and on subjects where shortages exist." this is the first step in making changes in our society..

The "No Child Left behind Act" is a great idea, but not well throughout. It was made to help improve children test scores in The United Stated and up to this point it has not made that much improvement.  When you think about it, how are children going to learn it they don't have enough books for every one in the class. This law should have been made more to support public schools but all the money are being given to schools who already have the means of support. How do we expect our kids today to get the very best education if they are not given an opportunity. This is something to think about......and i hope, if Hillary Clinton is elected president  she will make improvements to the Act.
