Parenting Gone Wrong

A couple from Ohio have been charged with the offense of putting their children in plastic boxes for punishment. The couple is pleading guilty to this. As a punishment, these parents would put their children of ages 5, 6 and 8, into plastic storage boxes. They would duct tape the cover on and they would cut a small square on the cover for them to breathe through. Now tell me, what child deserves this?? No matter what the children did, this is inappropriate parenting. This kind of behavior is uncalled for and I feel so sorry for those children. The father is getting 1 year in jail and the mother gets 2 years of probation. I think they should get worse punishments.

Birth On A Plane

This weekend on a plane ride from Russia to Armenia there was a baby girl born. When a woman started going into labor and there were still 2 hours left of plane ride, they had no choice but to deliver the baby on the plane.The mother of the child, Armina Babayan, had told the airport that she was only 6 and a half months along, but obviously she was a little further along than that. Asmik Gevondyan was one of the flight attendants on the plane and she was the one who organized the delivery with the rest of their crew. Reporters say that the mother, Babayan, named her daughter Asmik, after the flight attendant. How sweet is that?

Cheetos Trail

On January 2, 2013 there was a robbery at a convenience store. It took place in North Carolina and the thief was a 19 year old man named Austin Presler. Presler was robbing the store when he opened up a Cheetos bag and started eating them. Apparently Presler spilled some Cheetos on the floor of the convenience store. The police had him down as a suspect and when the police went to search his home and figure out if he was the thief, they found more Cheetos on his porch and his walkway to his door. The police took him into custody right away.

On Wednesday, January 2, 2013, a man named, David Zehntner, and his wife were flying home from vacation in North Carolina in his own personal, small plane. He was flying over his house in Florida when he noticed there was a truck in his driveway. Zehntner lowered his plane a little so he could get a closer look at the person in the truck. He got close enough to see the person get out of the truck and look into the windows of Zehntner house and try and open the doors. The thief looked right at the plane and then continued to attach Zehntner's small utility trailer to his truck and drive off. Zehntner and his wife tried to call someone to stop him or contact the airport so they could land but it was too loud to hear so they followed him right until he got on the highway. They got a hold of the airport and as soon as they landed they called the authorities and the man was caught. He was arrested and charged with grand theft. Zehntner's trailer and belongings were safe and returned to him.

2013

Okay, so here is what I think will happen on Friday 21, 2012. I think that the world will not end. I do think that the stupid people of the world are all going to join together and try something very, very stupid because they are thinking that the world will end so no harm will come to them if they do bad things. I think that 2013 will be a rough year for us all. The people of the world will start turning on each other, more wars will go on. Our country will lose more money, companies will close up, the unemployment line gets longer. The economy will go down the toilet. If we can make it through 2013, then we will be fine because 2014 will be a heck of a lot better.

Flight For Life Crash-3 Killed

On Monday, December 10, 2012, there was a helicopter crash at night time in Rochelle. A medical helicopter crashed and killed two nurses and the pilot. The helicopter was headed between two northern Illinois hospitals and it crashed into a field. There were no patients on the helicopter with them, only the two nurses and the pilot. The helicopter was on their way to go pick up a patient at a hospital in Mendota. Police are still trying to figure out what happened and what caused the helicopter to crash. The hospitals are filled with sorrow but they are remembering their colleagues as "three heroes dedicated their careers to serving others." That's a good way to remember these  three people by.

On Tuesday night, four people were found dead in their home in Detroit. Three men and one woman were shot to death. Apparently, the neighborhood they lived in had been having odd things happen and there were many vacant houses. The police have no leads and are not disclosing any further information. This year, the homicide rates have gone up in Detroit since last year. Last year's homicide rates finished at 344 and since Thanksgiving this year it has already reached 354. An idea to stop the crime is to add more mini-police stations all around the city. It is a good thing that they are actually doing something to change their crime rates and are thinking about the safety of the people.
