The shipments will be under high security. Meanwhile, Apple Insider reports that stores such as Best Buy have been lowering their prices for the iPad 2.If you want to check out a video of a closer look of what might be an iPad three display, watch the video below by iFixit.

The Weekend After Stokes



This weekend, I was killed with sports. I was supposed to have five games this weekend. I should have had two basketball games and three soccer games. I had a double hitter in basketball, however I could not go to both. I ended up going to the first basketball game, but the other team did not show up. I came home and I had a little time before my soccer game.

I went to my soccer game for the Rutherford team I am on and got killed in the goal. I got kicked in the back of the head by a forward on the other team. I also got kneed in the muscle in my thigh. That was the end of that horrible game. It was now Sunday and I had two soccer games. My first game was once again with my Rutherford team. We played Hackensack, I think, and we did not do to well. We lost by a lot, and I was pissed. A few hours later, I had my last indoor soccer game with my Wood- Ridge team. We are the 0-7 team and we played the 7-0 team. We lost big time, again.

Winter!!!!!


Do you like Winter? I know I do. With all the snow (not this year though) it is so much fun. I also like Winter because of the winter break. I love it when I hang out with my friends and family on winter break. I love it when   my cousins and I have snowball fights. However, they are not as cool as this.

Does Google Support Gay Marriage?


To read the full article, Click here.


As you should know, Google had a doodle video on their website on Tuesday, Valentine’s Day. In the sketch, a boy was trying to win over a girl, who is jumping rope, by looking up on google the average items to buy your Valentine. None of these items attracted the girl, however when the boy gets out his jump rope and jumps next to her, the boy has one her heart.
Above is what Google.com looked like
at the end of the Valentine's Day
video.
The girl does not like the
boring gift he gives her.
At the end of the video, there was a screen with six gay couples in six boxes. As the one shown in the picture. This brings up the question, does Google promote gay marriage? In 2008, Google came out against Proposition 8, which was against gay marriages in states, so it would not be the first time. Also, in 2011 during Gay Pride Month, Google changes its layout. When you search a word that is related to being gay, Google had a rainbow slide down from the top of the page and then twirl around the search bar.
He has won her heart and they live
Happily Ever After.

Above is the symbol of
Gay Pride Month.
If this does support gay marriage, Google did it at the right time. With Washington becoming the seventh state to allow gay marriage and New Jersey may be voting on as soon as Thursday, there couldn’t be better timing.

Welcome to Sandra's Blog

Hi I'm Sandra, and I love to play soccer! I am a goalie and my soccer team is like my second family. However, my actual family is amazing, we've been told we are kind of outrageous. I have an older brother named Kevin who I can sometimes hate but in the end he loves me. I could not live without my family, I would die. Just like my friends, I know that they are always there for me and I'm there for them. Well anyways, have fun reading the rest of my posts.
