In Port-Au-Prince, Haiti several U.N. (United Nations) peacekeepers were sentence to one year in prison after being guilty of sexual abuse and exploitation. According to CNN "U.N spokes woman Sylvia Van Den Wildenberg said the several Pakistani police officers were convicted by Pakistani military court and were discharged. Pakistan also withdrew its 150 members of the U.N peacekeeping mission on Friday."
CNN says, "The officers were serving with two different units in different cities -- an undisclosed number in Port-Au-Prince and one in the northern city of Gonaives, U.N." spokesman Martin Nesirky told reporters. "The officers have been removed from their duties to reduce any contact with the local population while the investigation is under way."
I believe that because of what these two Pakistan officers that maybe no other Pakistan officer would be trusted to go to Haiti and do peacekeeping because of these two officers. This is what causes people to lose their trust in officers in these times, due to the fact that these unworthy officers take advantage of the privilege that they have to help the world. Instead of them trying to stop crime they end up making it worse for people, especially the people that believe in them, it's not only officers but also the other criminal specialists that people look up to.

Santorum Sweep's the South
Santorum swept the south by winning Republican Presidential Primaries on Tuesday in Alabama and Mississippi. He had 35% of the votes in Alabama, way a head of Gingrich and Romney who both had 29% of the votes. In Mississippi, Santorum won 33% of the votes that Gingrich 31% and Romney 30% both had.
Santorum says,“We did it again.” He added “The time is now for conservatives to pull together.” Mr.Gingrich says,“The elite media’s efforts to convince the nation that Mitt Romney is inevitable just collapsed.” He added,“If you’re the front-runner and you keep coming in third, you’re not much of a front-runner.”
NY Times says,"A week after Super Tuesday cemented the status of Mr. Romney and Mr. Santorum as the leading Republican candidates, the outcome of the Alabama and Mississippi primaries strengthened Mr. Santorum’s argument that he should emerge as the final competitor to Mr. Romney. But Mr. Gingrich, who finished a close second in both states, noted that he earned about as many delegates as his rivals. He pledged to take his candidacy to the Republican convention in August."
I believe that if Santorum keeps getting more votes like that and even more he will be able to win this campaign, as for Romney and Gingrich they should step their game up a little bit more if they that interested in winning this campaign. Many voters are looking for a candidate that can win because of their idea's and good train of thought.

For Women Under 30, Most Birth's Occur Outside Marrige
This article "For Women Under 30, Most Birth's Occur Outside Marriage" is about how most women are having kids under the age of 30, it's not the fact that they have kids at a young age but out of wedlock. This for some people is a very normal. It can be hard on the soon to be parents of that child, the young parents might not be ready to take such a big step in life. This can cause stress to the parents because they might be very young like around 17-18 and is getting ready to finish high school but now that hey might have a baby on the way they might have to find a job and might have to drop college out of the picture. Most time if things don't go as planned the father of that child end's up leaving the mother to look after the child and might not come back, or sometimes the mother of that child leave's the child with the father which is very rear.
Reporters from CNN said, "Among mothers of all ages, a majority — 59 percent in 2009 — are married when they have children. But the surge of births outside marriage among younger women — nearly two-thirds of children in the United States are born to mothers under 30 — is both a symbol of the transforming family and a hint of coming generational change."
Even younger kids like 13-16 yr old's are getting pregnant now. I have a friend who is 15-16 and is pregnant right now, she said that she's happy about this and think that things are going to change, make things better for her, but I feel sorry for her because since she's young she doesn't understand that this can affect her, especially how she just started high school and is basically nowhere in life yet, no experience.

The article "Young mom strangles tot with bra" is about a mother who kills her baby with a bra while the baby was aleesp which is tragic but nothing new because stuff like this happen majority of the time or everyday. 2 year-old baby girl was sleeping when her mother, Nioshka Bello strangled her baby with her white bra, Bello, upset with what she had done tried to kill herself by gulping down 20 Benadryl & Tylenol.
Nancy Grace a cnn reported said "She wanted to kill hers but got fustrated and decided kill her baby instead.

The cops then came up to her house when all of a sudden, Bello dropped down confessed and was charged for 1st degree murder; possibly a whole life sentence.
I feel very sorry for that baby that died for no reason, she didn't deserve it and i find it hard to understand why the mother would do this to her own child, I know that everybody dies eventrally but no for no reason, but like my grandparents say the grave is not only for the old but for the young.

Facebook is Using You
This article "Facebook is Using You" written by a law professor Lori Andrews, is about how facebook has a way of hacking into peoples accounts and seeing peoples supposedly private information. It's not only facebook that can do this but google and g-mail hind ways to hack into peoples private accounts and messages. Andrews is trying to explain to us that we should be more careful, and educate by telling us that what ever we do online you can be easily tracked.
She stated, "Facebook makes money by selling ad space to companies that want to reach us. Advertisers choose key words or details — like relationship status, location, activities, favorite books and employment — and then Facebook runs the ads for the targeted subset of its 845 million users."
I myself have a facebook but don't really go on it as much as I used to. Since I don't put all my information online I'm not really worried about what's going on and for the post that I might put on Facebook is not inappropriate so I don't really have much to worry about. There are times that i worry about putting certain things on there because people like to whole you against things you might have said in the past and didn't really mean, I worry because if my friends our family see what I have wrote on my wall they their not the only people that would know, in my family once one person knows everybody knows.
