Today in the union tribune I read an article about how the price of cocaine is much lower than the 1980’s. Alleged dealers were selling half-ounces of cocaine for as little as $400. A half-ounce contains about 14 grams, which comes out to about $28 per gram. In the 1980’s a gram of cocaine cost $100 to $125. If the cost of cocaine went up like every thing else, that $100 gram from the 1980’s would cost $282 today. Government officials said the price drop isn't surprising. People become aware of the drugs dangers and started shying from it. Borden estimates that the price has fallen 80 percent since the 1980’s, and he said the drop has occurred regardless of the stepped up enforcement. Prices are dropping because dealers have become better at distributing the drug.
Bank robbery suspect claimed to have bomb. In today's reading I read that their was a 47 year old woman that robed a bank off of imperial avenue market. This woman went in the bank around 10 45 with a bag and demanded a bag of money she side she had bomb. Hours later the cops found a nearly suspect just like her and I guess it was her and the lady side that three man demanded her to rob a bank with a bomb. The cops searched but didn’t find know one . The bomb squat found a bag with a shoe box and tools in it….. I critique what happen and the lady was ling. The lady side that some guys persuade her to do something. The cops told her that they contrast what happen and she really planed everything out.
Title: Bank robbery suspect claimed to have bomb.
Story: In San Diego, a Washington Mutual Bank was evacuated after a women claimed to have a bomb during a robbery. The 47-year-old women entered the bank on Imperial Avenue near Marketplace avenue about 10:45 a.m. and used a demand note stating she had a bomb in a bag, she took cash but left the bag behind. Officers located a suspect a short distance away and arrested her. She told the police that three men in a green van had forced her to rob the bank and gave her the bag. The bomb squad found the bag contained a shoe box weighted down with auto parts.
My opinion about this story is the lady and the police know she did it because she wanted to no men had told her to do it, why would you do it if you know you aren't going to get away.
One interesting fact was never try to rob the bank and say you got a bomb when you don’t.
Today I read a story, it was about a white cop that had pulled over a black motorist who turned out to be one of the highest ranking commanders in the New York Police Department. There were two white police officers that pulled the black cop over and one of the officers went to the cops door and started to try to wrest open the door, the two cops said that the car was parked near a fire hydrant when they spotted the car.
Today I read in our region about that SDSU is concern about their image after the drug raid. SDSU is the most standout research school in the California state university system. It boasts a top ranked international business program. And a more stringent admissions policy combine whit a recorded number of applicants to choose from has enable San Diego state university to significantly boost the academic caliber of its students. I think that the boast that happened in SDSU is goanna hurt them on there reputation and it is not going to be one of the most good schools no more and that people are going to stop going there and its going to become a lower school because people are not going to want to go there because of the parents being scared about the drugs.
Today in union tribune, I read that people of a certain age remember reaching down to the bottom of a freshly opened of frosted flakes, groping for the free marble inside. Others remember drawing a chalk circle on the school yard pavement to create an arena for the games. Don Loc Levitt even remembers carrying his marbles in a prince Albert tobacco can that he tucked into his pocket of his bib overalls in the 1940’s. Levitt, a retired navy corpsman, is promoting marble revival. He and his chapter of the Vietnam veterans of America turned the veterans museum and memorial center in balboa park into a marble gaming hall yesterday. The focus of the days effort is to try to youngsters interested in the game of marbles and get their iPods out of their ears, Levitt said. Maybe he can steer them away from those video games, too he added.
