Obama's speech

In the speech that Obama is giving he is setting a god pace so that the listeners can comprehend what he is saying. Obama in my opinion is a very good speaker, he is very convincing to the people and knows what he is saying when he needs to speak. His posture is good and he isn't slouching over so that the people in the back of the room can hear him and when he says something that is important he raises his voice so that he gets everyones attention and then pauses at the end.

Robert Schiavo a 22 year old man from medford was accused guilty in the stabbing of Nancy McKinley, a 61 year old women. Prosecutors say that he is guilty for the brutal stabbing and death of the women during a burglary. Robert Schiavo will be sentenced 25 years to life in prison if convicted. Robert said to the police that, "panicked and freaked out. I started swinging the knife at her body over and over. I stabbed her a lot." I think that even if he didn't mean to kill the woman he still had a knife on him and in her house and still did kill her. Even if he had not have killed Nancy McKinley he still would have been charged for burglary.

Move to Bar Some Baby Cups March 4,2009

In some of the bottles there is a chemical known as BPA which stands for bisphenol A, this chemical is mainly located in baby bottles and sippy cups. By banning these baby bottles and sippy cups with the BPA found in it, it will be protecting the country's children from the BPA which some scientist studies suggest as harmful. By switching to different bottles without the BPA in it will it b more better? Steve Stern says "There are plenty of viable , cost-effective and safe alternatives." In my opinion I think it is a good idea that the Legislature of Suffolk County are banning these bottles because it will be protceting the health of the children and if there are plenty of viable, cost-effective safe alternatives, then why not which? By switching the bottle use it can eventually help you in the long run, so you wont have to treat your child if they are harmed from the BPA.
