This story is pretty sickening in utself. Texasrape victims are getting billed for thecase. In this instance a woman was raped by her sons 15 year old friend. This lady recieved a notice that her credit would be damaged if she didnt pay the amount. This is due to the rape kits and the amount of money it takes for all that evidence to be aquired. A lot of women who get these letters go ahead and pay this amount because they just want to rid themselves of that incident and not go back to the pain. This seems like a low blow made by the state to get money. I can understand if the case was dropped or there was no evidence but the state legislature is set up to pay for this evidence cost. This seems like something should be done for these rape victims seeing as they have already gone through enough

Under the Sea
javascript:CNNPlaylistManager.getInstance().BVPMVideoSelected('/video/tech/2009/05/09/lui.green.fish.farms.cnn.json','ts_latest');
This story is very interesting. These sea farms are harvested deep down in the ocean away from polution. These fish are raised in HUGE pods tied to the ocean floor right off teh Panam Coast and Pueto Rico Coast. This is taken a step to cleaner foods and smarter planning for future problems. These farms sell the fish to the U.S. after tehy have grown in this environment with only the best nutrients. This is a BRILLIANT idea and a really cool process

Bristol Palin, Sarah Palin's former pregnant daughter, is going on a anti teen parenting tour. She's speaking out that teen pregnancy is not a good thing and to practice abstinence. Well is she a reliable source? I mean the girl does know what its like to have a child being a teen and she is a role model but she herself couldnt practice abstinence so how many teens are going to listen to them? I support her efforts im just wondering if shes reliable i mean she was going to marry the babies father and now shes wanting to stay single? It jsut seems jsut changes her mind a lot. I think she needs to teach more about things to do to prevent pregnancy while being sexually active rather than being a girl that has partaken in sexuall activities saying dont do it but i have.

WOW OPRAH GOT HER DOCTOR DEGREE. YAY OPRAH, OMG! God i am sick of this woman. Years and years later she has finally got her Doctor's Degree, Listening to her commencement speech the only intriguing part of this speech was when she mentioned her god son, William Bumpus." Come on your whole speech was about Bumpus. WHO EFFING CARES. I'm just waiting for Oprah to turn Catholic and apply to be the next POPE. I was as just annoyed with Oprah's speech as i was to watch Queen Fish Face, "Joan Rivers" talk on The Celebrity Apprentice. God Oprah has had a show for 25 years yes youve done great things with your show but lets face it, If Duke didnt need the press and the alumni support from you they wouldnt have even given you this stupid degree. I feel like Jerry Springer is more deserving of this degree than she.

Wow the Swine Flu. It is tiring hearing more about this flu when all you hear is devestating stories and numbers. My look on the swine flu is treat your body smart and like you would during regular flu seasons. I feel the government is just putting the people in America in a freak out mode. They say not to swarm Dr. Offices or ER's but come on you know stupid people are going to do so. Yes the Swine Flu is dangerous because its new to the human body but people i have the cure: Wash your hands and due whats necessary to keep from any regualar flu, build your immune system, and TURN OFF YOUR TV!!!

Protecting the Sea
javascript:CNNPlaylistManager.getInstance().BVPMVideoSelected('/video/international/2009/05/10/lustout.intv.eco.knowlton.cnn.json','ts_latest');
Officials from 70 different nations will meet to decide what they can do to protect the seas. This is labeled The World Ocean Conferance. Everything lately has been go green go green. Now we are going blue. It's great to see the world doing stuff to better earth. If only humankind would have done more earlier than things wouldnt be as bad as they are now but thats the past and we learn. The ocean and protecting it doesnt seem like much but the ocean supplies much of our food intake. We cant let the ocean go to waste casue whats the humankind or even the humanbody without water. President Obama has put together this meeting and the U.S. is making it obvious that they are taking a leadership position in saving the ocean. They plan to do this by setting guidelines for how clean the water should be and the amount of fish taken out of specific areas and the acidic concentrate in the waters.

Recession
javascript:CNNPlaylistManager.getInstance().BVPMVideoSelected('/video/politics/2009/05/10/sotu.king.martinez.intv.cnn.json','ts_latest');
This story is really sad and kind of inspiring at the same time. This mom and her son are homeless, and living in the shelters. The son is still in school and the mom is continue to push on. Her spirit is amazing she's seen some really hard times and she has the right attitude about it. So many people these days just sit back and say ok what can you do for me. This lady has taken on the role of ok what can I do for US. The momj continues to work and the son stays in school. The recession is something that one individual couldn't keep from happening so this kind of mentality is amazing for someone who is struggling financially. We take so much for granted that we loose sight of everything. The companies like telecare have such a grasp on life. These people help teh helpless and also give jobs to the homeless. The recession happened and we cant change that. More of us need to be like this women and just keep pushing and working to better ourselves and not pout about what has happened to us.
