the social media site, twitter, helps spread the word about a massive Ontario party and it gets completely out of hand. In one hour before the police got there, these crazy teens did about $70,000 in damage. Police also say there was 1,500 kids there thanks to twitter. Several kids were arrested for everything from assult to public intoxication. This is social media works, especially twitter, one simple "retweet" and every person that follows you will see that post, it spreads really really fast. This probably isn't the only party that has happened like this, even at my little school, word gets around and i'm not the least bit surprised if thats how parents track their kids activity

burgers for breakfast
http://www.nbcnews.com/business/consumer/mcdonalds-tests-seasoned-fries-burger-king-adds-breakfast-burgers-n100786
Mcdonalds and burger king, fast food rivals are starting a new battle, Mcdonalds confirmed on thursday that they are testing new seasonings for their fries,patrons in Stockton, California, and St. Louis can order Garlic Parmesan, Zesty Ranch and Spicy Buffalo fries, while burger king is adding burgers to their breakfast menu.
Sales this year in mcdonalds have already dropped 1.3% Burger king is planning on adding even the whopper to their AM menu. This is funny because of the taco bell new breakfast menu and you'd think that these places already make enough money, but apparently not. Its nice for taco bell to be open in the morning now because that means more jobs or at least longer shifts available, but this also means people have another excuse to put so many fats and calories into their bodies.

prom police

In May 2014, a Richmond, Virginia, teen attending a home school prom said she was kicked out because her dress was too short. she later posted a picture that confirmed her dress was longer than her finger tips, which is the dress code. some of the dads chaperoning say that her dancing was too provocative. "16, 17, 18-year-olds should not be in dresses with thigh-high slits, necklines that plunge precariously close to the belly button, backs that are cut so low as to expose butt dimples," said a mother named Judith on CNN's Facebook page. "Parents need to step in and stop this 'beyond the age' dressing, says the website. I feel like this is going too far, its a formal event and most dresses sold at debs, macys and most of them at promgirl.com don't fit the "dress code" and how it used to be when most parents were our age. Looking at her dress compared to the others i think hers is actually most appropriate, most teens our age are watching movies that expose girls 12 times as much as a short dress would. all these complaining parents need to realize that times have changed and they can only control their own children.

man froze his mothers body for 3 years
http://www.cnn.com/2014/05/09/us/kentucky-frozen-corpse/index.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+rss%2Fcnn_topstories+%28RSS%3A+Top+Stories%29
Jon Whiteford had a secret so macabre, that when a Kentucky sheriff's deputy showed up to question him about it, he pulled out a handgun and killed himself. After his mother died of natural causes at age 96 jon kept her frozen and post poned her funeral, to collect her social security and her retirement benefits. When she died he did not want to lose the income and his close friends say that they wondered if his mother had passed away but they were too afraid to ask. Three weeks after his suicide the police sent in dogs to sniff out remains and they couldnt find anything. soon after detectives found a place that jon once rented, and there they found a body wrapped up in a tarp, and it was Faye Whiteford's. This makes me sad because clearly he was upset about his mothers death but he cared more about her income and he went to the extremes of lugging her dead body around just so he could collect her benefits, i do think he should be definitely punished for the collection of that money because people like that are the reason that when i get older, the money coming out of my checks will never come back to me, and that pisses me off. It ishouldnt be happening and this is why social security should be way better monitored.

Mouthy kids murder trial
http://www.hlntv.com/slideshow/2014/04/28/schenecker-julie-crime-scene-photos-murder-trial-children?hpt=hp_t3
A tampa, Florida mother is charged of killing her two teenagers for being mouthy back in 2011 case is finally going underway and with new released crime scene photos. Julie Schenecker armed herself with a .38 and shot her 13 year old boy in the head twice. After killing her 13 year old schenecker walked into the house and shot her 16 year old daughter once in the head and once in the face, while she did her homework on the family computer. Police say that julies motive was because her children were being "mouthy". A few weeks ago prosecutors announced that julie would not face the death penatly because of her mental health issues. This is absolutely crazy that this woman is excused for killing her two children just because of her health issues, how in the heck does that make sense?! This actually doesnt surprise me that this took place in florida because this is where the casey anthony case took place and the judge seemed to think that was okay, so why not kill both of your children. i will be following this to see what actually happens to this woman.

4th grader suspended
http://www.wwmt.com//shared/news/features/top-stories/stories/wwmt_4th-grader-suspended-indefinitely-bringing-airsoft-gun-school-20338.shtml#.U1pRblVdXVo
A 10-year-old boy brought a toy gun to school, which created a police response last week, some wondering if this punishment fits the crime. 25 years ago this would have never been such a bad thing but times have changed and its so sad that a fourth grader can no longer go to school because an innocent act of bringing a toy weapon to school. No decision has been made yet, but Blacken says he is hoping the prosecutor will require the 4th grader to receive counseling. I really wonder if the child meant any harm at all when he made this decision. when the fourth grader said he "needed this for protection" im sure he was saying that out of repetition, probably from a television show or overheard from upper classmen, i truly think this child just needs help, not a punishment
california bus crash
http://www.wwmt.com/template/inews_wire/wires.national/33eda203-www.wwmt.com.shtml#.U1pO8lXZjVo
11 middle school students and the driver was injuried after a bus crash in southern california, three of the injuried, two students and the driver are in critical condition and the other nine had minor injuries. the bus ended up tilted sideways and leaning against a tree. police say there was no other cars involved in the crash. There is no immediate word on the cause. This is absolutely insane, how does this happen when nobody else was involved? this is why schools should really take into consideration who they hire as a driver, and school buses really arent that safe if that many people were hurt. Thats why when i am a parent i will be very afraid to send my kids on the bus, too many things like this happen.. i really hope they find the cause soon and they get to the bottom of what really happened. hopefully everyone is okay including the driver, maybe it wasnt all their fault
