This is absolutely awful and shocked me. They say they found him with her underwear in his possession. The fact that he kept her underwear is almost a close and shut case in my opinion. I've been following this story for awhile and originally I didn't know what the motive was or what triggered this until those two articles came out today. This wasn't an act of anger, this was a thrill kill. To me, the fact that he kept her underwear shows that he took thrill in killing her, as there is a pattern in people who murder and rape keep 'special' items belonging to their victims. IMO, that all points to that this kid would have murdered again if he had the opportunity.

Working at Target

A typical work day as a target cashier is standing at the register talking to customers and making sure their experience is great and giving them what they need out of their shopping time. I've learned to be fast and accurate. The management is very flexible and easy to deal with. They always make sure to acknowledge us when they notice that we are doing a great job. If it gets too slow during a given period of time, you are always welcome to cross train in other areas of the store. Co-workers are very nice. The most enjoyable part is getting to interact with all different kinds of people. 

The hardest part of the job i would say is having to borderline harass all the guest to sign up for a Target credit or debit card. It gets exhausting and I can only bare people giving me an adamant no so many times.

Self Control

I am horrible when it comes to procrastinating. Whenever I am studying or in the middle of writing a paper I always find something to distract me, usually online. Recently, I discovered an app called Self Control for the MAC.  You create a list of websites you want to block, set a timer for how long they should be blocked, and it goes into your computers backsystem and blacklists them. There is NO way to turn it off until the timer goes off. It is the BEST thing ever created.

Finally updated to iOS7. I love all of the new features. The only thing I absolutely hate about it is, the wallpaper configuration SUCKS. The way they crop your image and the way it doesn't let you zoom out to get it exactly how you want. It reallyyyyyy annoys me. :|

As some who likes to look at history very closely, I believe the world is prepped for another major global conflict if the right diplomatic steps aren't taken. The Iranian's believe Syria is their buffer as well as an ally. The United States intervening in Syria would almost be like of Russia putting nukes in Cuba. It is a complete act of agressioin to their national interest. Anything that weakens their interest is veiwed favorably by Israel. Israel is on the sidelines cheerleading with pom pom's hoping this all blows up in Iran's face. Problem is, Iran will be coming for them after the attack, if there is one. The U.S. is already using this as an opportunity to beef up a case against Iran by leaking intel out to the press about how Iran have plans to attack U.S. embassies and other interest. If that were to happen McCain and Obama will be calling for war bombs over Tehran. All this and we haven't begun talking about Russia and China who are Allies to both Iran and Syria and what their possible actions. 

I am also perplexed by Obama's choice to take this to congress. On the surface it seems like the noble thing to do - let the people's representative's decide. However, there is a good chance congress is going to say no. How could he cause all of this hype and bang on the war drums only to make himself look like a fool internationally? I can't even imagine that. He will look terrible. However, that would still be better than taking us to war.

Royals

Wow...

Miley Cyrus comes off very try hard and so contrived. We all understand this is a business and part of marketing is amping up certain parts of your personality. So atleast make me somewhat believe this new image is somewhat genuine even though it's not. Urban culture isn't just twerking or hood music but hey she's the one that looks a fool.
