Aaron Vargas who murdred his childhood molester, Darrell McNeill, was sentenced to prison for 50 years because of the manslaughter. Mcneill was his neighbor as a child when he was 11 years old. Thats when he was molested by him. Ever since then Vargas was tormented mentally and couldn't for get what happened to him. He had rvenge on his mind while growing up. McNeill used his position as a Boy Scout troop leader and as active neighborhood father to win the trust of Vargas and other young boys, Galliani said. He took the boys on camping trips or hikes, gave them alcohol or drugs and molested them, Galliani alleged. The alleged sexual abuse waned as Vargas grew into adulthood, but McNeill continued to call him and visit the home where Vargas lived with his wife and infant daughter. The continued contact drove Vargas to the breaking point, his sister said.

Obama funds federal funded abortions.
President Barack Obama has signed an executive order designed to ensure that no federal money can be used for elective abortions under the nation's new health care legislation.
Obama agreed to the order on Sunday to ensure passage of the health care overhaul that is central to his agenda. The deal won the votes of anti-abortion lawmaker Rep. Bart Stupak of Michigan and a bloc of other House members who wanted assurances that existing federal policy would not change.
The order affirms a prohibition on federal funding of abortions, except in cases of rape, incest or danger to the woman's life.
Obama invited lawmakers to the Oval Office for the order signing Wednesday but no members of the news media were allowed in the room.

Overdue library book due after 45 years.
A pretty weird and funny story but true. A mysterious person borrowed a book back in 1996 and all of the sudden decided to return it 45 years later. Talk about slow readers. Alison Lawrie, the principal assistant at Dinnington Library, near northern England's Sheffield says she tried looking back at the records to see who the borrower was but the records don't go back that far. It's very weird to return a library book after so long. Imagine the fines for the book. Even if its a penny they charge every day your late imagine how much money you owe! All the staff members of the library were very baffled when they saw the book in there mailbox. They decided the person doesn't have to worry about the fines, they just want to know who the person is and why they decided to return it almost half a century later. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100319/ap_on_fe_st/eu_odd_britain_overdue_book

Why have there been so much earthquakes lately?
A topic that arises a lot and gained a lot of attention since the Haiti earthquake is why are the so much more earthquakes nowadays? Well previously I thought there were more earthquakes, but now after comparing earthquakes from 1900's to the ones in the 2000's shows that we have much more advanced technology that detects even the slightest earth movemnt. The earth moves a lot. Sometimes it moves without us noticing it and other times it moves so much it destroys buildings and injures people. But basically what I'm trying to say is don't worry about it to much. The world is not ending or anything like that. It's just we have more advanced technology so we detct more plate movemnts inside the earth. Even back then there were many earthquakes and people didn't even notice half of them. Earthquakes are just a natural thing for the earth.

4.4 magnitude earthquake rattles Los Angeles.
A magnitude-4.4 earthquake rattled residents of Los Angeles early Tuesday morning. At first it was quick then it jolted up a little bit stronger. Luckily no damage or injuries was caused. Although it wasn't a very strong earthquake it cuased worries all around LA. Why? Well because of the recent earthquakes in Haiti and Chile. I mean, if there was a earthquake near NY, we would already be thinking get ready to die. Same thing happened to the residents of LA. But now the real question arises. Why are there so much disasters around the world now? It first started with an earthquake in Haiti then in Chile, then a tsunami and now another earthquake in LA. It seems a little creepy referring back to Nostradamus's theory of the world ending in 2012.

New Android Powered Internet Tablet
The new Archos 5 Internet tablet is out. It is an amazing device that has many features. So what makes this new device so special? Several reasons, but the first standout is Android. With the many pre-installed application (ranging from documents to twitter,) there is also the AppsLib. The AppsLib is a library of free and paid downloadable apps—and Archos is promising 300–450 apps that are in the pipe-line ready to go. Another amazing feature is an HDMI port. With this addition, you could be watching a movie as you commuting home and once you get there, simply plug the device into your TV and finish watching it. But, paired with the next features makes that port even more amazing. The Archos 5 supports an external keyboard connected either by Bluetooth 2.0 or the USB 2.0 host port. So now, why even take a laptop when you travel? Plug this into your TV and type away on an external keyboard to keep in touch. While it can come with either a 160 or 500 GB HDD, you can also take advantage of that port by plugging in an external hard drive and pretty much have infinite storage. Lastly, one of the best features of all, it features a kickstand on the back, making it so easy to watch movies or type using an external keyboard.
