MySpace Helps the Police - Does Mindsay?
"Teens' Online Posting are New Tool for Police"
 Boston Globe (05/15/06); Davis, Wendy
 
 User information posted at the Website MySpace.com has helped law enforcement with a number of investigations. Police investigators have gathered evidence from the site in criminal cases that have included drug and gun charges. For example, pictures posted by a 16-year-old boy on the Website were used to help convict him of a weapons charge in a Colorado court because they showed him in possession of firearms. Concerns about the safety of young people posting on the site have grown because of cases involving some users preying on children. MySpace has a small investigative team that cooperates with police in up to 150 investigations each month involving the site. Some critics of making arrests based on threats made online say that young people sometimes use the medium to pull pranks without intention of harming others. However, police have arrested young people for making violent threats on MySpace.

Je suis désolé

Je suis désolé que je n'ai pas écrit récemment, mais j'ai été tres fatiguée!(comment dis-on 'blogged' dans Français?)  Mes étudiants me font aller fou. Peut-être il est en raison de la pleine lune! Un de mes étudiants a pleuré comme un bébé parce-qu'il n' a pas eu de ketchup! À la semaine prochaine, je n'as pas aller à travailler en raison des vacances de Thanksgivings. Merci Dieu! Une semaine de Paix!

Sorry, I haven't written lately, but I've been very tired! (How do you say blogged in French?) My students are driving me crazy.  Maybe it's because of the full moon! One of my students cried like a baby because he didn't have enough ketchup! Next week I don't have to go to work because of the Thanksgivings' break. Thank you God! A week of Peace.

Boy, that took too long! *whew*!
