1.There is an old pharmacy and a family owned house. They having been fighting with the city since 2003. I think the pharmacy is more important because it is one of the few landmarks of the past that are still up and running in Austin. One suggestion of compromise is "subdividing
the lot to preserve the home while allowing development on the other portion".
2. Both colleges are going to be working in the nation's nuclear weapons lab. They are also going to be working with University of New Mexico, the Boeing Co. and the Battelle Memorial Institute. I think that it is interesting that the two rival schools are working togther but I am against nuclear weapons so I don't really think it is ok.
3. There is a new case of sexual assault and there is enough evidence to move forward as well. I do agree with the judge. The lawyers say something about the district attorney general promising to never prosecute Cosby. I think all their arguments are stupid. I think the only reason this is on the front page is because of Cosby being a celebrity and the fact that this happened before not to long ago. I think that there could be more important news on the front page but it's also a topic that people want to hear about.
4.Lee Elementary will now be named honoring Russell Lee instead of Robert E. Lee. Now the school won't be celebrating a confederate leader anymore. There was also a suggestion that the school will just be Lee. Saldana wanted to rename the school Bettie Mann Elementary. He voted against the new name because he said that that is defeating the purpose of even having a new name. I didn't go there but I think confederacy should not be honored so I think that was a good idea to change the name.
5.Most rumors are saying that Ken Starr will be fired. The nature of this situation is honestly disturbing considering how many of those men have committed sexual assault. I think that Starr and all the football players that were offenders should be arrested.
1. The neighborhood association wants to preserve the house, and the family wants to demolish the house. The question is not over which is better: the house or the pharmacy. The question is over whether or not the family should be able to demolish the house. You didn't express an opinion about the compromise as asked.
ReplyDelete2. They haven't gotten the contract yet; they are trying to get it.
3. It's not really a new case. But it is going to trial.
4. Two missing parts. Who is Russell Lee? And Mann was at the meeting on Monday so that made the vote against her name and for Lee a bit awkward.
5. Starr won't get arrested but he might lose his job. The football players have been prosecuted and some are already serving their terms.
