Inmates at the Miami County Jail in Troy are under orders to paint the cellblocks pink to test the sheriff's theory that the color will have a pacifying affect on prisoners. Sheriff Charles Cox says he's entering the academic debate over the color pink's calming abilities. Jail administrator Dee Sandy says the first time the sheriff mentioned the concept to her, she thought he was joking. not so. She ended up picking a shade of purple for the jail bars. Previously, the jail's walls were cream-colored and the bars were painted blue. The jail, about 20 miles north of Dayton, houses up to 111 inmates.

I think this might work because pink is a soft color and it might helpthe inmates.  I think Diffrent Colors have different effects on people. If I was in a pink jail cell I think I would be calmer if I was in a black or red cell I would feel more tense because black and red are anrgy colors.  This idea might not work for everybody because everybody does not like pink and the color would make them just more angry because they are aggravated by the color seeing it everyday.  I dont think they should make the inmates paint the cell walls either if the sherrif wanted the cell pink he should do it.

               President Bush vetoed a health insurence  As Kat said I also think health insurance is very important.  President Bush vetoed it because is was the same bill from last time.  I dont know anything about passing bills or what not.  But by reading this maybe bush had a good reason for once for not putting this bill in affect besides the one e stated in the passage.  But for me I think all children should have health insurance becasue there are so many more life threating diesies in the world than ever if the children had health insurance maybe less fortunate parents would take them to the doctors office.  To us going to the doctors is a piece of cake and some of us pay little to nothing.  Some one on a low income has to save every cent in order to survive the month and if their kid is always in the hospital or whatever that could put their family in a serious problem.  I am glad I have health insurance and I have the parents who got me insurance.  I see alot of parents not getting their kids on insurance they say it is to much I dont know how much insurance cost but I think that is the one thing everybody needs.

http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/offbeat/2007/12/05/az.naked.shoppers.ktvk  On Saturday about 3:09 a.m. two young caucasion males walked into a local store  to purchase skittles,tea,and a donut.  They had cash to pay for everything the only problem was that they were completely naked.  The cashier said the two men popped their heads in the door and asked if they could come in.  Theresa Dockstader-Carter said yes without realizing they were naked.  while they were shopping she just grinned and said what ever yall touch you will have to buy.  Dockstader said that the men were very polite and they did not seem to be drunk they were just out having a good time.  Samantha Cooley the manager of the store said she felt there was no reason to notify the police.  By looking at the surveillance camera they seemed to be harmless and just wanted to buy some candy.  http://www.azcentral.com/community/scottsdale/articles/nakedshoppers12042007-CR.html

I think this stunt they pulled was crazy they could have been put in jail.  They are lucky the two women working there had a sense of humor.  I wonder how they felt when these two characters walked into the store.  I know I would have been laughing because it is not everyday you see naked people shopping in a store like it is no problem with it.  At least they were not trying to harm the women they just wanted to get there food and leave it was just a harmless prank I guess. Well this is the craziest story I have heard in a while I put this story up because there is so much violence today and it was good to hear a funny story.

        Fish may be brain food.  I always thought this was a myth because this is not the first time I have heard that eating fish is good for people to focus better.  Maybe I will start doing this because I have finals coming up and I need all the high grades I can get.  But I think if the people scored high on the tests it was not becasue of the fish they would have to have known the information before so that part I think is not true.  By eating fish it might make you focus better but your test scores will go up I dont think so you would have to study to get high scores.  It is good that by eating fish it can lower a person's cholestoral.  I think everybody needs to have lower cholestoral levels because that is why alot of people are dying.  I just feel bad for people that are allergic to fish what are they going to do oh Well this is the end of my blog I guess im going to go eat some fish to help me do my math homework.  I will be back tomorrow
