Parole - To Be or Not to Be Free

Parole is the one thing and sometimes the only thing that felons in jail look forward to during their sentences. There are instances where certain criminals that commit certain crimes do not even have the chance of parole. This is comforting in terms of safety because criminals such as those without oppurtunity of parole are put away for good. But in other cases the ones that do have the ability to win over the parole board can go free before their sentences say. Felons with this chance at freedom often display the best behavior before they have the meeting and hope to convince that they really have changed for the better. There are more times when the board turns down the felon than actually grant the man or woman freedom.

There is no saying how the criminals will be once they are free. Once out of prison, they have a set of rules assigned to them by their parole officer. The slightest foul up can land them back to where they were in the first place, locked up. This would be the ultimate setback and the number of people that violate parole is staggering. All and all, parole is positive in the sense that it is given to deserving men and women. Certain people deserve second chances and if the chance comes they should be able to grasp it if it is meant to be. The parole board is always the deciding factor when it comes to granting the right person freedom. They know to look for the so called phonies that are trying to take stabs at getting let free. Those are the ones that will cause the problems on the outside all over again. This is why they usually get turned down. Because just like every other person in jail, their all innocent, remember?

The Marines final reflection

Are we in the middle east to protect our county form terrorist and to spread democracies beliefs and rights though out the middle east or are we there just for the oil and the government and oil companies can become more powerful and richer. I think we are they to get the oil form the oil filed because the president is sending more troop over to the middle east and building new training station for the troops. I think we are going be in the middle east for a while. The war and Nation debt will keep going up and also the price of gas will go higher and higher in till we leave the middle east because Iraqi was are partner in the oil business. The death toll of the American forces will keep going up if we stay longer in Iraqi. The gas price is around or little bit higher than $4 dollar through out the county and the death toll is near 4,000 people and that not included the Iraqi civilians and Iraqi worker who are help the U.S. Marines. Most of the deaths are caused by I.E.D which are cared by terrorist or driven into U.S. Humvee to destroy or kill U.S. forces. The government is not doing nothing about it putting more armor on the Humvee instead they are rise gas prices over 4 dollar which i think is crazy. They rather make more money to keep the richer class going than to keep a middle class marines alive and to keep this Country safe and i think that is a bad choices to make and what kind of government is that.

My Final Reflection

When I started this project I really thought it would be easy. I mean I already know how to workout. I remember when I came up with my essential question, what can I do to be a better bodybuilder, going into it I considered writing down a lot of what I already knew about you know? For the most part that is what I did. I used information that I had stored in my memory banks. From things that I learned a long time ago when I first started to really workout seriously. I have to tell the truth, I only used the citations once through out my whole time doing this project. To put it simply but with out trying to sound cocky or arrogant I really don't need to use the citations too much. I think it helped me the one time I used it but as for my other posts it just came from my own personal knowledge on the subject. Although I have to admit I did still learn a lot from my know experiences with interviews and some advice from my personal trainer friends. I understand that this whole project was about researching your topic and gathering information off the web but it didn't quite go that way for me and my project.

I strongly believe that I answered my question to the fullest of my abilities. My journey to became a better bodybuilder has really came along way from my humble beginning. It took a little time to really try and assess my question. I said to myself "Okay what exactly do I have to attack here?" There was all sorts of other questions I had to answer first before I could go and answer the big question. With a question like that came even more question filled questions I could say. If I want to be better then I have to pick all the things that go along with working out. Eat more, take more protein, change up the schedule, more sets less workouts, more workouts less sets, all this information coming at me at once. But I tried to my fullest to answer my big question my own way. Taking very small steps forward instead of getting ahead of myself and taking a step backward. This may seem dumb to someone who doesn't workout but I love when I wake up in the morning and it is hard for me to move that muscle that I trained the day before. The soreness means that you did something right. I strive for that feeling every time I workout and I got that even more after I started this project. The basic parts of the project were easily answered, simple questions I came up with myself. Most of the questions were stuff I really wanted to change for the better. My schedules for certain muscle groups, the workouts that I do for that part of my body, eating better and more protein filled foods, all the stuff that you need. I know it sounds a little repetitive but that's what this all is. One big repetition after the other. But if your dedicated it won't matter. You absolutely have to keep changing in order for all of your hard work to take affect. So in all my question was answered, at least I believe so. It took a long time but I did it.

I only think that if I could have had more time that I would have been able to answer the big question a little more in depth. For the most part it is answered though. All that stuff in the above paragraph can really help with my dream of becoming a better bodybuilder some day. One more thing that might be able to help even more than anything else is a substance called creatine. Don't worry it's all legal. What that does is it helps your muscles retain water and pump blood in to the muscle. By retaining water I mean it gives you a bigger look when you flex. You see? I still have all this information on the subject that I never got to put down earlier. But that's okay because at least I got to get it out somewhere on this. I'm really happy with my progress and improvement with working out. I attribute this project to my success and increase in strength in the gym to this project. It got me thinking even more about what I do to get bigger and better. I loved doing this and sharing information with everyone. Hopefully I can do it again sometime later. Maybe I could start training a few people and help them too.

Prison Gangs - The David's and the Goliaths

Gangs can often be one of the leading reasons why people go to prison. Members associated with gangs will do whatever it takes to be accepted and to gain respect. This usually deals with killing a person and also committing other crimes that are considered serious. You would think that once the offenders of these certain crimes go to jail that they will get the point and want to straighten up. But these men and women realize once they get in prison that the same gangs that were on the outside are even more in tune on the inside. The oath of blood in, blood out is very much alive in every gang ranging from the Aryan Brotherhood to Neta. That means once you are in there is no getting out unless you die or get killed.

The main gangs in prison systems are usually the most well run. They have the biggest gathering and often are the most organized. Gangs control certain things whether it be money, trading of certain materials, control over cafeterias, control over certain cell blocks, etc. The original gangs that do this the best and are the most feared are the Aryan Brotherhood (founded in 1967 in San Quentin), the Black Guerilla Family (formed in 1966 by former Black Panther George Jackson), the La Nuestra Familia (formed in the mid 60's in Soledad prisons), the Mexican Mafia (originally a street gang that started in the 50's), the Texas Syndicate (started in early 70's), and the Neta Association (1979). While all of these gangs have disputes with each other in some way or another, they do have a mutual respect that involves not interfering with certain things. For example the Aryan Brotherhood and Black Guerilla Family are main rivals but there are cases in which the Aryans will give moral support to black groups in an effort to influence prison disturbances. This shows that they have an understanding on a certain basis and that if needed they could and would work together. In "Oz" this was evidenced many times. I guess this ultimately shows that these men in gangs are binded by one thing, being criminals. Nothing more, nothing less.

Just like street gangs, the ones in prison are responsible for most of the violence and organized crime that occurs. They run things their way and do not care what happens, as long as they gain respect and become more feared through reputation. Back in 1995 a state-wide assessment of Florida showed that approximately 304 gangs with more than 10,000 members were active in the state alone. This statistic is jawdropping because alothough Florida is one of the bigger states in the country, it does not speak for all of the other 49 states that have a high number of criminals/gang members. The other part of this equation that is stunning is that this number has most likely doubled since the time of this assessment. While the main gangs already mentioned have the biggest gathering, the other not so big gangs can make a dent as well.

SKULLS AND CROSSBONES

I of course start at google. The best place to start a search for information. I stumble upon a very usefull website (http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/homs/compare.html). The website presents a host of information not yet brought to my attention.
The pattern of the human skull compared to the ape skull is on one that brings on many questions. For years these two skull patterns have been compared. "Although creationists are adamant that none of these are transitional and all are either apes or humans, they are not able to tell which are which". This further promotes my campaign of the evolutionary persuasion. Creationists cannot even justify the closeness between the two species of human and ape. There is a considerable gap between the ape and human species (missing link). There are skulls throughtout history that creationists cant place on either side. Ape or human. If creationists really had all the answers and there way was the right way then they would be able to figure out which side those skulls belong on. How can someone lay the evolutionary theory to rest without being able to fill the serious holes in thier own theory.
I dont think im the one who needs to be doing any kind of research when the scientits have thier theories. I pretty much know where im going and have my opinion down. I can pretty much justify my outlook on the subject. I still need a little more proof though. NOT research, proof.

F17M mAk!Ng sc3Ne--4--

OK! Im done with the movie, but not quite, now i need to get my movie out to the public. This will be probley the toughest and hardest step Distrabution, but yet again my finacial state comes in to play i cant afford the Regal to put my movie on the big screen and the local film festival just past recently back in march. So now im faced with a problem i think my easilest solution would be post it on you tube and ill defently get attention from major movie producers such as FOX or UNIVERSAL. Real quick ill turnto wiki pedia for a little searching.......ok im back they said

This is the final stage, where the movie is released to cinemas or, occasionally, to DVD or VHS (though VHS tapes are less common now that more people own DVD players). The movie is duplicated as required for theatrical distribution. Press kits, posters, and other advertising materials are published and the movie is advertised.

The movie will usually be launched with a launch party, press releases, interviews with the press, showings of the film at a press preview, and/or at film festivals. It is also common to create a website to accompany the movie. The movie will play at selected cinemas and the Dvd is typically released a few months later. The distribution rights for the film and DVD are also usually sold for worldwide distribution. Any profits are divided between the distributor and the production company.

Now all i can do is sit and wait for my overnight stardom and my movie to get the most hits in Internet history... oh yea ill be famous tommarow morning.

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE TRACKS

Ive researched the first side of the two sided street. Maybe not to the full extent just yet but i feel i have some what of an understanding for the time being. The topic is one that has been argued for hundreds maybe thousands of years. Is evolution how we got here? That was my next stop on my search for the truth.

My search takes me to a very interesting site called conservapedia. Which explains the complete theory of evolution. The process by which evolutionists believe nature works is titled natural selction("survival of the fittest"). Natural selection is the process some organisms are better suited for the envronment they are placed in and therfore have a reproductive advantage. This enhances their traits over time. I find that the bible is'nt the only thing that isnt bulletproof. I always thought fossils were a helpful tool when supporting the theory of evolution but apparently i was mistaken. They seemed useful in proofing the changes from creature to creature but the site tells me otherwise. Discovering that It is actually one of the biggest flaws in the whole theory. I learn that CBS had a study in which only thirteen percent of americans believe god had NO part in our creation.

This discovery suprises me a great deal. I thought there were more people like me than just thirteen percent. I also have to keep in mind though every citizen in the united states did not take the poll and only americans took part. Much researching lies ahead.
