Global warming is feared by many people around the world. Many people believe the world will come to a end because of all the pollution being put out. Evidence of Global warming is ice the polar bears live and stay on, is slowly melting. This animals, and many more, will come extinct if this problem keeps growing. Yes, I believe its true. I feel like people need to be more careful and actually start taking care of the world. A lot of companies who produce a lot of pollution should be shut down. The world will end very quickly if nothing is done. Many people don't believe this will happen, even after the the evidence thats shown. The world should come together on this issue, ignore conflicts, and solve this.

       The protest for Wall Street turned violent. They got arrested during the march for disorder conduct. At one point, the protesters were reportedly maced and threatened with police batons when 150 marchers demanded access to wall street. This protest in New York started on Sep 17, and spread to other cities. In Los Angeles, police began to arrest a anti-wall street group. Demonstrators also camp out on Los Angeles for the past week. The protesters speak largely about unemployment and other issues. Some unions were donating food, blankets, and office space for the protesters.
       I think police need to do more about the protests. They should get the people off the streets, since their is nothing they can do to help them. Its a good thing that the unions are helping them out. Their donations to the protesters help them out tremendously. The protesters have reason to be protesting though, but when they get violent police forces should step in and break it. The protesters should know their rights, but not do too much like disorder conduct. Protesters around the country are showing their support. All the protests are not located in New York, they are around the city. The government needs to find a solution for this, as soon as possible, before it gets too violent.

                          Accused celebrity hacker: 'I deeply apologize.... it eats at me'.
       A man accused of hacking celebrities online accounts, showing private images, apologized. He claims he was addicted to this and couldn't stop. His name is Christopher Chaney. Federal authorities accuse the 35-year-old of hacking onto computers and other devices, invading this celebrities privacy. He got access to nude celebrity photos, and uploaded them on the internet. He accessed pictures of more then 50 people. Chaney also took financial information from the people. Some of the celebrities he attacked was Mila Kunis and Christina Aguilar. A recent nude photo of Scarlett Johannsson is part of the investigation. The FBI arrested him for the case "Operation Hackerazzi." 
         I think what he was doing was completely wrong. He should do a lot of time in Jail, especially since some of his victims were celebrities. In this society, although its wrong its true, most people see the crime a lot worst if a celebrity is involved. He was a well trained individual, and the FBI needs to look for more people like him. He was trained to get into peoples privacy easily, invading their financial information also. He claims he was addicted to this and couldn't stop, but he is just saying this for his defense. He could have stopped, he didn't have to, he is just trying to get free. Even after getting arrested, the actors and other victims involved in this will still suffer. Their nude pictures are out on the web.

Blog 8 Healthcare in the U.S

Their is a lot of problems in the healthcare system today. For example, insurance companies have the right to decline a request, after they have accepted it and the person needs medical help. If a person gets seriously sick and needs medical attention, his insurance company will try to find any reason to drop them, and make them pay for the  bill themselves. The system is bad. Their should be laws that should deal with this. If a insurance company accepts somebody, they should have to keep them, no matter what they find out later on. This would be a  good solution for one part of the healthcare system.
