Weekend

I did nothing this weekend. Sat on my couch and watched TV  ate and slept. My bed was basically made of soft clouds and I did not want to move. Why in the world did I do nothing over this weekend? It was simple laziness. There was no need for me to go out of my way to help anyone or accomplish anything. I didn't even bother to watch the NFL Draft, something I would normally watch every year with my brothers. Most of the time i would normally go outside and play basketball or lacrosse, which ever one i was in the mood for. Saturday was nice and sunny but that still kept me inside. Another cause of this is the fact I might have only gotten a few winks of sleep the night before.

Memory

These people have a condition were they can remember every moment of their lives. They have been quizzed by the a top memory scientist they have gotten every question right they have ever asked. When these people get asked how they are able to do this the only response they can give it that it just comes to them the can see it. The most impressive idea that gain be gained from the research is are there more of these people out there, or does this lay dormant inside every single one of us. The effort going into this project is still low, because people just don't know about it yet.

Kony

Knoy has been committing atrocities for years now and only recently has the U.S been involved. There has been an effort to capture him for several years now. The Ugandan military has joined with the U.S green marines, our role is to help train the young men to survive on their own in the dense dangerous jungle. Many people recently have deserted from Kony's army. They are now working with the men trying to capture Kony, mostly with intel but also with spreading to other people how if they leave the army we can help. A major general was captured alive a year ago and now he is leading to movement to help these misled soldiers to return home.

Google Fiber

Google is getting in the game with the T.V. and internet providers. Currently they only have three plans: the first plan is a $300 instillation fee and you don't have to pay monthly for the rest of the time that you live there. The second plan is probably the best right now, $70 a month for extreme high speed internet, 1000 Mbps that's fast. The third plan includes Google T.V. you get a receiver and a remote and all channels are in full 1080p, but there are still some major channels missing like ESPN and HBO. The downside is these services are only available in Kansas City right now, but Google plans to expand nation wide by this summer.

Brian Banks

Banks was a high school senior playing football, he was a division 1 hopeful. He got a call from a USC coach Pete Carroll. Banks had a verbal agreement to play at USC. Later in the year he went out with a girl named Wantta Gibson. After that night she accused Banks of kidnapping and rape. He was in jail with a bail of one million dollars. His mother sold her house and her car to afford the lawyer that they needed. His defence told him that because of his size, age, and race that it would be hard to get a fair trail. He plead no contest, which meant that he would only serve a max of 5 years instead of a possible 41. After 85% of his term was up he was let out, but he had to wear an ankle bracelet at all times, and he was a registered sex offender. A few weeks later he got a Facebook and soon after that he got a strange friend request. It was from Gibson. She said that she wanted to talk, but Banks wasn't sure if he could trust her. Banks hired a detective to help place hidden cameras and microphones around the room where they would meet. The conversation brought up was implementing that Banks was innocent. She said her self that he did not kidnap and rape her. This was all they needed. Bank's crime was lifted and could walk free again. Then he got a call from a coach asking if he knew a line backer. It was Pete Carroll again but with the Seahawks.
