Man and a goose form unlikely friendship
In Echo Park near downtown Los Angeles, the geese that live there begin their daily routines. Some swim, some walk and peck for food. Basically same stuff that geese do everywhere. But there is one goose there with routine all to there own. Every morning, its priority is to stand by the side of the road and patiently wait for her mate to return on his scooter. The old man comes down to the park every day to see the bird.

Texting in School
ANGLE: (Subject, Verb, Object)
B-ROLL Kids texting in school Teacher walking up to student and taking phone Video of Trevor talking to camera Cuts away from Trevor and shows a kid texting in class Fades between different kids texting and then fades to Michelle talking Video of Michelle talking and starts to cut into more kids texting Then fades into Mrs. Thompson talking Teacher on the phone and kid texting under the desk. Collin in front of camera signing off. | A-ROLL Many kids have come to wonder why teachers are so strict on why there is to be no texting in classes. Is it so others around the texter are not getting distracted or so that the texter is not distracted from their schooling? Trevor: As long as it is not effecting the learning environment then there is no reason that kids should be able to text. Students do not see why if it doesn’t affect people around them then what is the problem with texting in school. The opinion of some parents was surprising as it was different from teachers. Michelle: I as a parent do not care if my children text in school. If they are getting their work done and have good grades then what does it matter? Kids should be allowed to text in school as long as they are at a good standing grade in their classes. Mrs. Thompson: I think that it is rude to both us the teachers and also to other kids around. Thus making a easy solution to it all and just not allowing kids to text in the classroom. Is texting something that will continue to not be allowed in the classroom or with more students texting in class will this be a rule that will soon no longer be enforced? Signing off for the flash, This is Collin |

Wisconsin Power Play
Last week in the during some protest against Wisconsin’s new union-busting governor, Scott Walker demonstrations that continued through the weekend with huge crowds on Saturday. Representative Paul Ryan made an comparison by mistake saying “It’s like Cairo has moved to Madison.” Which was not a good thing to compair to with all the stuff going in Egypt and so compair that to the Wisconsin people. I dont think that someone at that level in the gov't should be compairing the people to that. Its shocking that the people that are suppose to vote just fled the states. They should just do the vote without them.

Connecticut AG Asks Facebook to Detail Fraud Response.
Connecticut Attorney General George Jepsen is asking Facebook about how it detects and disables fraudulent accounts, after a state legislator said her identity was misused in a scam to solicit her friends for money. Jepsen asked Facebook for information about the number of complaints it had received in the last 18 months about fraudulent or hacked accounts, policies for responding to such complaints and how long it took the company to do so. The company’s policy on such situations includes developing “complex technical systems to flag and block suspicious behavior, including the creation of phony accounts,” as well as “providing easy reporting channels for people to let us know when something is wrong, and educating people on how to protect themselves,” a spokesman said in an e-mailed statement.

President targets $350M for Great Lakes cleanup
President Barack Obama's 2012 budget called for around $350 million to clean up the Great Lakes. The proposal released Monday was a cut from the $475 million that Obama proposed orginally decided on but that amount has no changed. But it's an increase from the $300 million that Obama wanted for 2011, although it's uncertain whether that money will go threw because Congress has not yet approved the budget for the current year. During his campaign in 2008, Obama pledged $5 billion over a decade for the program, which would battle invasive species, step up removal of toxic sediments, restore wildlife habitat and take other steps to fix longstanding environmental problems in the Great Lakes.

Ultimate Electronics stores to be liquidated
Ultimate Electronics who is based out of Colorado that sells home electronics had filed for bankruptcy last month. They have now started liquidating its 46 locations nationwide, including six in the Twin Cities.
Stores are expected to remain open until stock becomes too thin, when they will then ship remaining merchandise to another location. The retailer is attempting to sell its merchandise immediately, so the value of its electronic products does not decrease. In Minnesota, besides the Minnetonka store. Ultimate Electronics has stores in Edina, Woodbury, Maple Grove, Burnsville and Roseville. According to the Minnetonka worker, who asked not to be named because workers were told not to talk the media, each store typically employs 17 to 20 people so closing the six locations in Minnesota could mean a loss of up to 120 jobs.
