affects Danny and Fran Kellers.

Christina is accusing Fran and Danny of sexually abuse. The
little girl, Christina, is claiming that she was sexually abused at her
day care. It happen back in like 1991 when the trial was in effect.
Christina had first spoken out to her parent in like 1990. Fran and Danny
were found guilty and are now serving their 48 life sentence.

abuse childern thatcan't even defend themselves. The Keller's say that
they are innocent.

Assignment 03/25/09

Who?
The US And Mexico

What?
The Mexico Drug Wars are coming into the US, it is happening
all the time, we have seen it become a big problem. Many innocent
people can get hurt if we don't stop this. We could try to put up more
security around the border.

When?
It is happening all the time.. sometimes it becomes a big problem then
it dies down again.

Where?
It is mostly happening in the US states that are bordering Mexico.

Why?
It kind of just something that happens and plus they can make a lot
more money in the US selling that stuff.

How?
It is costing some people to be abducted from out of their homes. Many
people are frighten of that these people might come to their house. This
can affect a lot of people in the US because it is hurting their fellow Americans.

I think that it is kind of scary. I have heard about it before and never really
thought nothing of it. I think Obama should put more security along the border.
Also I just feel bad for all the families that already fell victim to this.

Critique on the Newspaper

#1 Soccer scholar Jesus Cruz signs with High-Point
By Clarissa Marquez

I like that they put what he plans to major in while he plays soccer at High-Point. I like that they also put the other colleges that were interested in him. What I didn't like is that they didn't use enough quotes, I think that they should of used more quotes.I think it is a good article they pretty much give details and stuff, just use more quotes.

#2 The Killers come to Austin for a "Day and Age"
By Ricky Valenzuela

I like that in the beginning that he started off like you were actually there and the concert was just starting. I also liked that he also put a little comedy in it "with overpriced cups of beer". I also like that they mentioned all three of their CDs. I think that they could of maybe tried to find some people that went to the concert and got some input from them and added it in.

#3 Book Review: City of Ashes
By Alma Benitez

I like that they put some of the first book info because this is the second one that she is talking about. I like that she kind of tells what the story is about but she doesn't give everything away.I think that maybe they could of added maybe a little more information on the first book.
