Man Kills Abortionist Doctor


On May 31 2009, Scott Roeder killed Dr. George Tiller inside of his church for performing late term abortions. Nearly a year later, Mr. Roeder says that it was his crime but will not plead guilty to manslaughter. Roeder testified:

“I did what I thought was needed to be done to protect the children. I shot him,”


Roeder's lawyers spin a twist, hoping that the jurors would consider Roeders beliefs and oppositions and give him a lighter sentence. However the judge advises the jury not to give him a lesser sentence that what he deserves. How far are people going to take their antiabortionist ideas? And when will this eventually become yet another crisis for the nation?

The IPad. The New Generation of IPhone

The newest item from Apple, the Ipad is said to do everything, consisting of the same functions as the ipod and iphone put together and even with a mix of the mini laptop and Amazon's Kindle. Bobby Johnson, technical correspondent to the Guardian's newspaper states:

"For anyone who loves new technology, getting the first touch of a new Apple device is a little like laying hands on the Shroud of Turin, or seeing a unicorn: the first experience of a mythical object imbued with miraculous properties"


For now the Ipad seems to be the most wondrous item on the technical market but how long will it be number one though? Apple and other tech companies seem to make something fascinatingly new every few months or so.


Republicans VS Democrats


After President Obama delivered his State of the Union address to both parties in parliament and the nation, Republicans and Democrats seem to be neck to neck, more than usual political disputers. Obama is having difficulties bringing the oppositional party in on his latest plans. It seems that Republicans and Democrats are going to have issues coming up with a plan that is both beneficial to the economy and to their needs. How much longer are we the people going to wait until this gets into play? And how much longer can the economy hold up with minimal stability? After all this, will Obama really be seen as the "change" he promised or a "fraud"?

Blackwater Goes Too Far



Blackwater, an United States Security company is now being accused of being a "rogue militia that disregards humanity" due to the murder of two Afgans. Two former guards are being charged with the murder which would follow previous cases against Blackwater for various killings in Iraq. Which causes us to question, whats the cause and nature of Blackwater? To reach Iraq and kill, kill, kill?

Game Catches Crook


Criminal gets caught by playing World of Warcraft online on a stolen xbox. According to deputy of Howard County, Matt Roberson, the accused Alfred Hightower was a avid player of this apparently addictive game so the authorities were able to trace the system down to Hightower. Roberson told The Perspective:
“We received information that this guy was a regular player of an online game, which was referred to as ‘some warlock and witches’ game.” None of that information was sound enough to pursue on its own, but putting everything we had together gave me enough evidence to send a subpoena to Blizzard Entertainment. I knew exactly what he was playing — World of Warcraft. I used to play it. It’s one of the largest online games in the world.”

“You hear stories about you can’t get someone through the Internet. Guess what??You can. I just did. Here you are, playing World of Warcraft, and you never know who you’re playing with.”
It is not the first time that the police use games to track down criminals. Officials use the PSP3 to break child pornographers passwords. However this can work as a two way street, police finding criminals and criminals finding victims. How reliable is this system really?
