Santorum opposes same-sex marriage, saying the American public and their elected officials should decide on these incredibly important moral issues, rather than Supreme Court, which consists of nine unelected, unaccountable judges. Santorum has stated that he does not believe a “right to privacy” is part of the Constitution. He has been critical of the Supreme Court decision in Griswold v. Connecticut, which held that the Constitution guaranteed that right and overturned a law prohibiting the sale of contraceptives to married couples. He has described contraception as “a license to do things in a sexual realm that is counter to how things are supposed to be,”and said in 2003 that he favors having laws against polygamy, adultery, sodomy, and other actions “antithetical to a healthy, stable, traditional family”. In June 2011, Santorum said he would continue to fight very strongly against libertarian influence within the Republican party and the conservative movement. Government should keep our taxes down and keep our regulation low and that we shouldn’t get involved in the bedroom, we shouldn’t get involved in cultural issues, you know, people should do whatever they want. Well, that is not how traditional conservatives view the world, and I think most conservatives understand that individuals can’t go it alone. According to politics section of Boston.com, candidate Santorum stated an opinion about Barack Obama’s view on the government. “Governor Romney actually advocated for the Massachusetts model that President Obama adopted with mandates, and then went out on the campaign trail and repeatedly didn’t tell the truth.’’ Tweet

Very high seas as well as powerful winds impacted the western region. On Tuesday night Alaska was hit with conditions similar to a blizzard, experiencing 80 mile per hour winds. Building were affected, loosing roofs and getting hit with water. This is one of the strongest storms that have hit Alaska in about 40 years.  As seen in the Huffington Post, Jeremy Zidek talked about the weather in Alaska with Associated Press saying, “People out there are used to extreme weather, but this is not a normal storm … This is of a magnitude that can be a storm of record, extremely dangerous, and the state is treating it as such.”  According to Associated Press and seen written in the Huffington Post, ‘big low-pressure systems hit Alaska often, but this one is different because of the track it took and because ice hasn’t formed yet to protect the shore.’ Scott Berg, a meteorologist says, “Because we don’t have shore-fast ice this time of year, that’s what’s significant.” As stated in Huffington Post. “Just hasn’t got cold enough yet. We have open water generally until the first of December.” Also seen in Huffington Post, Brad Johnson, cites The Weather Channel’s Tim Ballisty, who writes about Alaska’s storm, “The current lack of sea ice in the Bering Sea will allow this storm to maximize its impact. Ice typically acts as a natural barrier that migrates the effects of destructive wave action and coastal flooding along the shoreline.” Clearly, this weather was unual and is affecting the people living in Nome, Alaska. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/11/09/nome-alaska-bering-sea-storm-weather_n_1083752.html Tweet

After the shuttles landed back home at earth NASA has gotten requests to get parts of the shuttle to research and learn more about.

The plane is going to look the same but parts will be replaced with fake ones. The engines will be taken out to be reused or tested to make more better.

Why couldn’t they just repair the shuttle and use it over and over again instead of wasting money on building news ones. Yes it might bring more research to space flight, its just pointless.” NASA doing this can cause the country to know more about space flight. It shows the world up close what the shuttle looked like and the success the shuttle had in space.

Only difference this time, it was without drinking. On Monday, May 30th, in Renaissance City, of Florence, Italy, Nicole ran into an Italian police car. She crashed right into the back of it. The reason for the “accident” is said to be done on purpose, and to endorse the popularity of the show.  “Yes I believe Snooki ran in to the police car on purpose,” states Frank Casale a junior attending New Dorp High School. “No one talks about the show and the cast since it stopped last season.” Nicole was driving in the front seat, accompanied by her co-star Deena in the passenger seat. The back of the car was filled with crew. She was driving a Fiat Multiple during Italy’s rush hour traffic. When Nicole crashed, which was said to be a “slow-speed impact”, not only did she crash into the car, she injured the two Italian police officers inside it. While the officers were sent to the hospital, Nicole was questioned by the police and her license was examined. Nicole and Deena were uninjured, as they sat, waiting on the edge of the curb. “The cast shouldn’t be in Italy,” says Nicolette Monte, a junior at new Dorp High School. “They can’t follow the rules and they are going to cause problems.” Nicole and the rest of her Jersey shore cast arrived in Italy early last month. There, they filmed the 4th season of the show; which will be later aired this year. The guys themselves, (Mike, Pauly, Vinny, and Ronnie) racked up a total of 300Euros in fines for various traffic violations. They were later sent to a press conference; which is where they admitted driving in Italy is a difficult task.   Tweet

Where the shuttle will be taking off many people will be miles away watching this massive rocket take off and make its way into space. The space shuttle’s mission tomorrow after its take off is to go to the international space station. There they will perform maintenance jobs and bring spare parts for the station if needed. They will also be installing a new instrument which would be a particle detector that would try to detect dark matter around the universe for those on earth to study. In doing this they would try and find out what the universe is made of and will be able to further their research in the world. This launch has been anticipated by many including officials of the united states and the president himself. After watching the whole procedure before take off they wanted to be there in person to see the thing actually take off. But unfortunately the president will not be able to. He had plans to stay for the first attempt, but did not make plans to see the second. Aside from the officials watching it take off, other bystanders miles away also have been ready to see it take off. They parked in perfect areas and were ready to see it take off at the first attempt, unfortunately they will have to wait till Monday to see if it really does take off. When asked New Dorp Student Lillian Ibrahim, “What do you think of Space Shuttle Launches?” She answered, “I think they are cool. But I think I lot of money is being used on events like when it could be used for the problems on earth today.” If I was there at the first attempt of the shuttle I would be angry that it had a problem and had to be aborted.
