Arapahoe girl eludes possible kidnapper by The Denver Post
Well when it comes down to it what is being done to ensure that kids or young adults don’t get kidnapped? Well some would think that there parents would teach them the lesson to never go with a stranger all though it’s very helpful and kids still understand. It seems to me that more could be done to ensure that it won’t happen so close to home. They should know there surroundings or simply just walk with there children to the desire destination. Many kids go out and many of them do not return because many of them were kidnapped. But some do indeed get away but some don’t. Very lucky 13 year old girl not being identified got away by just a hair. She was walking to a bus stop and a white car pulled up and tried to grab her. Struggling to get away she ran back home. But it seems as if she really could have been kidnapped and never heard of again. I could imagine that it would be a very emotional feeling. If someone kidnapped there loved one. Once before when I was young I did indeed almost get kidnapped. Of course I was too young to understand. The fact that I almost did really get kidnapped; hurt my mother so emotionally. It’s very scary and could really hurt someone. It seems too often that this is happening and it really shouldn’t. Millions of kids go missing and kidnapped each year. That’s not just millions of kids that millions of families affected be such a lost. So why must it continue? Well that’s a question that seems well never be answer. Because we have no idea why people do what they do. But its still such a pity that kids get kidnapped everyday and nothing more we can do.

Parents allowed access to there children grades from school. Many find it a very simple tool to use just to check your children effort and progress over the school year. To see and monitor there behavior and attendance. What do the students think about this? Well this simple blog titled “Should Parents Have online access to student grades? By, Sara Bernard.”Well when you think about it me personally as a student I do have some grades that I wouldn’t want my parents to know of. But its just a simple fact that there gonna find out one way or another. I struggle and sometimes it could make a huge impact on my grades. And with this online access I find it way much better to monitor my effort. My parents should know about it. I will say coming from a personnel experience I did get held back and did have to repeat a grade and believe me its real hard to get over something like that. But just the same if my mom knew that I was failing we could have prevented it. Because think about it. Who do I know can tell me what to do, the person who has me and the power a.k.a. my mother. Im sure if any parents knew that there student was doing bad that they could probably use there own ways to make us try our best and make the grade. So simply I think that this online access to grades for your parents is a fantastic idea.

At what age may many people imagine neither a human being nor any other living creature to be giving birth? Many would think around the age in which it’s more mature and in adulthood because it just proves that there ready. Well this story relates to common qualities of a teen giveing birth at such a young age, Resource the Discovery News article Pregnant Teens Common Among Dinosaurs by Jennifer Viegas.Well according to Andrew Lee, a microanatomy instructor and post-doctoral fellow at Ohio University he believes that many Dinosaurs were giving birth to younger offspring before reaching full development. The age range consisting of 18 years old which many would think would not be that bad but the youngest being up to 8 years old could be kind of too young. But hey that was million years ago from today. A time when technology and many other nifty gadgets were not invented yet, what difference would it make? So would it make any difference today if a young girl gave birth at 8? What would people say? Many would oppose to the fact and think that there’s something seriously wrong with the Childs parents. So what if an 8 year old gave birth to a child it am not me. Babies’ having babies it’s a creepy issue to endure. Hopefully many would believe that it shouldn’t have to be that way for any child. Children have to be kids first. They need to go trough childhood being a kid and not having to worry about anything.
So why must we care? Well for one thing the thought that implied just proves does indeed state that kids should be kids and not worry about taking on a task of raising a baby at there young age. Perhaps in the future yes. But our world today cares about children, obviously enough to make laws restricting them from such things that they know were not old enough for yet. Such as drinking or smoking etc. All the laws have certain limits. But they make them so that it ensures us that were still young.
So with this thought in mind think about it even though this relates to dinosaurs that roamed the earth millions of years ago would it make any difference if it happens today?

The Thought For The Day on 7-16-07
A very interesting thought that tends to make people think more about how our country will react to the future. Who knows what the future hold’s? All I know is that I must help build it and to ensure it for the next generations after me and after them. “The Thought For The Day on 7-16-07.”Resource the “Fisch Bowl” By, Karl Fisch. A true fact that every body lives and dies and can only occurs once in a person’s lifetime. Just the same for these of Our United States. What remains ahead? So many unanswered questions still remain. Of how our world works, what new discoveries will be found and how will it impact our future. It’s a twisted and very complicated system that will still be that way many years form now. It will rely on me when I mature and come of age. When I grow old enough to take the ropes and learn new things that will prepare me for a job that doesn’t even exist yet. What may relate is the religion of Christianity. The question arises “WWJD?” in other words “What Will Jesus Do?” What will he hold? And most of all how will it effect us and the rest of our people in the world. So I leave you with the thought that “We are the future!” so how about we make it something worth remembering!
The 3-year-old’s Body Believed Found
The long awaited search ended this afternoon when the body of a 3 year old Niveiah Gallegos was found. Resource “The Denver Post”, “The 3-year-old’s Body Believed Found” by John Ingold. The search began when the victims mother Miriam Gallegos had made the accusation that a tall red headed man had kidnaped her. A Amber Alert was signal and the search began. But very suspiciously when the police went to the resident of the young girl there they found a bloody towel and when confronted the mother cracked. Telling the police everything about how she and her boyfriend Angel Montoya were scared to the fact that she was not breathing. They wrapped the baby in a plastic bag and the boyfriend carried her out to dispose of the body. She was found in a shallow ravine inside both the plastic and duffle bag. Along with this unforgiven act it didn’t have to happen. A earlier charge was pressed on the boyfriend that he had assaulted the young girl but with out the corporation of the mother the charges were dismissed. The fact that this could have been resolved before any of it happen. Is a disappointment toward the police and family members. A young 3 year old girl that had her whole life ahead of her it’s such a shame. As a young teen I find this article very heart breaking. Because any young girl or woman for that matter can relate; if its there child or there sister. In this situation it describes how the lost of a baby that had to evoke a tortures death. Had to be taken from the world all because of a dysfunctional family that could not report the death in the first place. Very simply its really bad that our world must have head lines like this. Just like the story of that mother drowning her young kids in a bath tub. We as the people really should take this issue and many others into affect so that no more young kids can face a tragic death just like young Niveiah Gallegos.

How Much Do You Value Test Scores?
A very interesting topic sometimes mention in school matter thoughts between your parents and your teachers. It's a subject in which I think of my own test scores and my school. But the article How Much Do You Value Test Scores? by Karl Fisch; resource The Fischbowl it talks about how you wonder what kind of education you or any other student has and is it always the best. Coming from your very own teacher. Simply it does make you think about would your parents choose this school or any other school for that matter just because of the test scores it pulls every year from students such as us? Or would your parents want a good old school that just makes you up in every way? In such a matter it connects to a everyday school or classroom. Mostly concerning the students more or less. In that way it seems as if the students should be making the decision about where they would want to go to school. But before I get ahead of my shelf we still have parents who makes choices like that for us but we are entitled to our opinion. "Are we not?" I still think that a school should be made up of young adults that are simply there for one reason to learn and to be themselfs. In a environment that doesn't judge and keeps an effort to do all that they can to help a student out. In this case Mr. Fisch made a wise choice that a lot of people would agree on such as myself. He gave the opportunity to his young daughter in which test scores didn’t even matter.
Bid to Cut Off War Funding Fails
When it comes to war funding in Iraq many would want to help the cause in order for a victory.But many would also oppose. As you may already know we have been in this war for way too long now and simply the question comes up "Why?"The political groups Democrats and Republicans fight this issue often. In this article Bid to Cut Off War Funding Fails by David M. Herszenhorn and Carl Hulse; resource The New York Times it talks upon that issue and also includes the funding cost of the war. The Democrats made a simple proposal that would cut off the war funding in order to stop the war but with a few less votes then needed it failed. So in that case due to majority vote the war in Iraq will still push on.So very easily the question remains "Why didn't they go for it."What matter's most is that many of our solider troops are risking there life everyday and some haven't been home in months or years. I think it would be a huge stepping stone toward a better strategy if we supported the idea. This does affect me and everyone else; I do believe that the idea must be reconsider and hopefully this time pass with a handful of votes.. "Do we want our troops to come home?"I would think that every one would be for it. In times like now we really should bring them home and stop this war once and for all.But the other side remains in this case the Republicans thoughts are solidly behind the president in the matter. It relates to the modern Americans which includes everyone living in the U.S. the subject of our country at war has a deep impact on us all. Families,Friends and everyone has love one's that they just want to come home. Many want them to stay and push on because to them its a succeeded victory in the bag. With thoughts and opinions on the topic it connects to all the people.But how many would be for the idea?
