Earthquake Story

Two people were killed and six injured when a 6.4 magnitude Earthquake rocked the San Francisco Bay area at 8:12 A.M. Monday morning PDT causing the McHenry's Auto Supply building, located at 2342 Plum St., to partially collapse. The epicenter of the earthquake was under Hayward Hills, according to Penny Gertz, a scientist from the U.S. Geological Survey in Menlo Park.  Gertz said the quake occurred on the Hayward Fault, which runs under the hill. Hayward resident, Mike Beamer, whose apartment is across the street from McHenry’s, said he felt a rolling motion that lasted for about 30 seconds, with a big jolt coming in the middle.  “I was eating my breakfast when the room started rolling. I dove under the table just as I heard an explosion outside and a chunk of cement flew through my window. That’s when the screaming started across the street.” Jennifer Temels, also a resident at the same apartment complex, said she was getting ready for work when she felt a huge...

Huntington Story

Janice Jones, age 53, was shot in the leg around 10pm wednesday night when her dog, a Pomeranian named Tombo, accidently knocked Jone’s 9mm handgun off her couch while she was eating pork chops in the back of her motor home.   In addition to being shot in the leg, the bullet also passed through the side of Jone’s vehicle according to California Highway Patrol Press Liaison Tammy Rye.  “It could have been worse,” stated Rye. “The bullet missed the gas tank by only two inches”. While Jones is expected to make a full recovery after being treated at Irvine Medical Center, Tombo was placed in the care of the Huntington Beach Animal Control and according to control officer Janet Ngo, appeared to be malnourished and had fresh cigarette burns on its forehead.  “He could have done with little less abuse and a few more pork chops”, stated Ngo. She indicated her office would explore filing animal charges against Jones. Jones was also cited for expired plates and according...

Ethics In The Media

Aaargh! Pirates! ( and the press) Summary: The Music Industry has been having issues with music leaking and illegal downloading since June 1999. Media Outlets like Rolling Stone and Billboard cover all the music drama, when they cover stories about music being leaked , they always give people a link to go download the music illegally. This Story questions Rolling Stone And Billboard on whether or  not they should stay out of the drama and keep quiet. Opinion- In my opinion, I think that these news sources should be reporting these music incidents, but they should never include the link to download anything illegal. If you give a link to people , they will be downloading the wrong thing and that is never right to promote music that wasn't supposed to be released yet.  As long as they only cover the story then I think it's ok for them to publish their article.
