The Twinkies defense is a derisive label for an improbable
legal defense. A guy named Dan white who was a police officer who then dropped
out of the police force to run for city supervisor who started this defense.
The mayor George Moscone and Harvey Milk who was the first open guy city
supervisor where not like by Dan White. The Twinkies defense is said to be
because of Dan White’s depression he had been eating lots of Twinkies and
because of that he went into a sugar buzz that caused him to not be able to
control his actions. The trial was in 1979. At the trail a man named Martin
Blinder who was a Psychiatrist testified that white was depressed. White in the
past was a well cleaned cut man who was very health. White was previously a fitness
fanatic and health food advocate but soon later started consuming large amounts
of junk food and sugar laden soft drinks. The jurors found white incapable of
the premeditation required for a murder conviction so instead the convicted
white of voluntary manslaughter. Do to this verdict public protest over the
verdict led to the white night riots.
Juvenile delinquency is a current
issue because every day we have new and old juveniles going into juvenile
detention centers for many different reasons. The following are different
examples of these reasons. 10 percent had driven a car under the influence. 18
percent carried a weapon and 43 percent have drunk alcohol. 8 percent attempted
suicide and 53 percent of high school students had engaged in sexual
intercourse.
should juvenile records be sealed or expunged?
Juvenile records can be expunged
or sealed. Should we let this happen? I saw we should give the juveniles
another chance to make their lives right again and change their ways. The three
things that cannot be aggravated murder, murder, and rape. The courts decide to
seal the records depending on if the juvenile has satisfactorily rehabilitated
which is determined by an investigation based on age nature of case. Sealing is
gone to the point where only the juvenile court can see it and expunging is
when it is permanently gone forever.
The electro-kinetic road ramp is important and new to
technology. This ramp generates energy from harnessing the kinetic energy from
the automobiles going cross it. The energy comes from the automobiles that use
the ramps. This ramp will produce 30 KW of electricity. This was dismissed
before because of the talk of kinetic energy plates. It was said to be a waste
of energy but I feel that it would be a good idea to try it again because it
could really work. The kinetic energy caused by the friction of the tires on the car and the speed the car is going is what causes the ramp to function.

Tobacco is a big thing in globalization. Tobacco started in
one little area and now it is all over the world. Tons of people do tobacco There
are many forms of tobacco you can smoke it chew it and so on. Tobacco is grown in
the ground. It could be thick thin or grounded it’s all up to you and how you
like your tobacco. Tobacco started as rolled tobacco.
When Columbus found the Native
American smoking rolled tobacco is when it happened. Europeans embraced tobacco
before other common products like sugar chocolate coffee and tea. Tobacco was usually
separated from other crops in reserved gardens. They used to believe that when
tobacco smoke passed over the clay sculptures it would bring them to life. The consumption
of tobacco was inspected to jump to 71 percent in 2000 and that by 2020 70
percent of the expected 8.4 million deaths in developing countries. tobacco kills millions of people constantly. there are many different places and people who market tobacco all over the world. at this link http://www.tobaccoatlas.org/industry/tobacco_companies/market_share/ you can find a big map that shows the many different places in the world
School all year is a new issue because many states are finding it to be a good idea. Many states like Nevada are going to school year round because they are seeing that students are not forgetting what they learned as quick when going year round as they did having such a big summer. School all year round gets 6 weeks of vacation and that's it. Kids not forgetting what they learned during the school year is a pro but the con of this is that paying school taxes will probably go up or we will be paying more in taxes. The school all year round program offers the same amount of days as the regular school year of 180 days. Some cons are that students can’t take summer jobs and it is hard to manage because of sports schedules. A duke university study was conducted and they found that student in year round school have a slight advantage.
School all year long
The 180 days was created for the purpose that the students could be home to help parents harvest crops. Obama feels school days should be longer. If we did this students that have family depending on them working the evening hours will be in trouble because if the school days are longer they won’t be able to work like they can now. If schools go all year round it will help students to have more help with things they need help with. If schools go all year round it could cause a higher dropout rate because students already don’t want to be in school half the time. If schools went all year round it would give kids more of a reason to skip school which they already do but it’s not as bad as what it could be. All year round school can cause a problem finding appropriate child care. The one kid says that the sister and he were latchkey kids because it is hard to find a babysitter for two weeks every 6 weeks. School all year round has many problems but it also has many good qualities at the same time. Many people are finding more ways to make it a good thing but at the same time there are many other people who disagree with the people that agree to school all year round. In my opinion I would prefer not to go to school year round because I like other students work a summer job and during the summer I get more hours than I do during the school year and I also don’t like going to school all the time so I wouldn't like it all year round. This could cause students to stop coming to school because they need to work to support there family’s. I don’t want school year round for me or my children I think it was one of the worst things they came up with its bad enough the food in schools are horrible don’t make the kids suffer any more than what they already are.
School all year round is good because shorter breaks means students are more likely not to forget what they learned. if school all year round they could do remediation would be able to be done in school instead of over the summer. with school all year round vacation can be distributed evenly through out the year.
