On March 23, 2000officers used brutal force on 35-year-old Jerry Amaro the third while being arrested for illegibly buying drugs from an undercover cop. Over the next month Jerry had been complaining about chest pains. On April 21, 2000 he died, found in his basement. Officers told his mother that he had died on the street and that gang disputes had started. The corner pretty much called the officers out on being the reason Jerry s dead. The report was not charted that they had used force.
Police should either own up to their actions or not do it at all. Only do what is necessary .It just goes without saying it always comes back and bites you on the butt. After ten years Jerry’s’ family is getting closure and told a justified result of what happened to her son. According to the Amaros’ lawyer this was the biggest police cover-up in Oakland.

[FREE] losing a close friend to drama
im like every other girl i enjoy the causal rumorsbut , when its about me or a friend its all bad. I hate knowin that people have nothing to do but rag on us for no f*ckn reason. Don't you have somethin better to do? Some people say i have a big mouth ,mostly i take that as your hecka loud. But lately people twisten my words and tellin my best friend that i've been talken bout her behind her back and tellin her buisness. il admit i have let a few a few details that i knew were not mine to share but sometimes i realy don't know what is a secret or not. A wise guy told me "if its a secret they shouldn't tell anyone." i have had many run ins with this crqap and we work through it. Sghe is my bestfriend ever like she is what ties me to reality and meaning to live love her to death. it funny though i can always trace our problem if i go back enough to a guy. guys play with her and it bugs the crap out of me. she doesn't deserve that. a few sentences can ruin a life forsure but, with her its a few words. It's taken me a few years to understand her and what not to do or talk about. Drama finds me and lets just say when we meet its the only girl i would take no shame of losing to, it's sly cheap and doesnt have rules. this time i think its bad a few words tipped it i take no grudge to the person who did it because she did not know like i do that she is serious about her personal life. i have begged for forgiveness more than i have in church ever lol. i realy can't imagine life being normal or sum what normal for me. i always was there for her and always new that when she gave me another chance that it was a big deal ...this time idk whats ganna happen. if you even think twice about tellin me a secret don't tell me it will be easyier and also then im still your friend. FIGHT DRAMA AND THE CHICKS THAT START IT. i hope she forgives me

[CE] mexico police'ready' for Pan AMerican games
Let the games begin in mexico. Along with the more than 6000 athletes from 42 countries participating, the city will host about 11000 police officers and soldiers deployed for the duration of the Games.
security is top priorty for planners. Guadalajara has been out of the drug wars way and want to keep it that way. im surprized that they have realitively kept that kind of problems away from them.they like to keep it even safer when the two week long games are goin on. drug violence isn't a worry, its a protocall for this kind of event. Being a part of Mexico does bring a bit of worry about drug violence. The planners hope to have a great un touched out come just like 2007 in Rio de janeiro. hopefully all is swell during the games. With the increase of violence a nd drug war there is a concern about it effecting the Pan am. the city has been very safe since their president Felipe calderon launched a military assualt in 2006.

[free] Bloggers Block
So I posted a status on Facebook saying “ I don’t know what to blog about.”
Skylar commented saying “write about bloggers block its writers block for bloggers.” So here I am typing one finger at a time this “blog”
It starts with a title then you press enter, and you freeze. Your mind doesn’t go blank it just will not give a word or sound to your fingers to type on the page. Some people get frustrated or start to doodle. I on the other hand wine; I just wine about how I can’t think of anything. So I go on facebook and ask people. Then I get distracted. Finally I get a new topic. I change the title and then half way through I notice I have a idea for the past blog or during my finger by finger typing I didn’t notice where my cursor was. Which would leave me with a jumbled up blog.
Ugh I have it again, its all good in my head but the moment I start typing it goes cuh-puht. It doesn’t help when you have something taking up your thoughts lol. It’s the stupid mid-term paper im staring at. Six pages of writing…NOT happening. In my head I am thinking “Nike” “Just Do It.” I know I can but it’s going to be a challenge

[CE] WNBA celebrates 15 years
The WNBA (Women National Basketball Association) was formed back in 1906. Finally, women made their voices heard and were given a professional league on ESPN2. In 1997 the first game was broadcasted over three networks, over 50 million viewers. This is WNBA 15 year of broadcasting and is going strong.
The stats of viewers at a game are 70% females to 30% male. The basketball is one inch less than the MBA which is 29.5in. The three point line is exactly 19 feet and 9 inches from the hoop and its’ half’s are 20 minutes each. On May 21 1997 the official WNBA uniforms were reveled, red whit and blue with the women in a shield like shape.
In 2000 all-star championships west all-stars beat the East all-stars 73-61. The game was played in front of a audience of 16,906 people. WNBA gave women the chance to show that they could do the same things as men.

[RE] starvation The suffering of starvation
"Maybe you'll think twice about buying that unnecessary cup of coffee from Starbucks, or wasting the rest of your food"
I so agree, the thought of having more than enough for my self makes me think of kids all around the world with nothing. It makes you think twice about the sayin"what about the kids in Africa"
what about them, their starving and are mal nourished. If we think about it the money for that coffee or for that monster, is plenty to pay for food for a child. Comercials tell us world wide that only fifty cents can get them water and food. Even though we can't personaly give them left overs or their own meal we can still sacrifice some pocket change to help them survive. It may not make a big diffrence but it made one to that child. It is so true how we don't have the worst of life or the best but we do have something. I too, hope that a miricle happens and the starving children and adults are given a better chance at life.
