Abby Sunderland may have just set the country on fire by being lost at sea. We all know how important it is for an AMERICAN like her to go missing. The 16-yr old is trying to become the youngest to ever sail around the world:

TV satellite trucks were beginning to gather outside the modest Thousand Oaks home…… where teen sailor Abby Sunderland lives with her parents. Occasionally, reporters would knock on the front door of the home covered with ivy and geranium. But no one answered.

Students from nearby Thousand Oaks high school walked down the street wondering why news trucks were here. Gage Guzman, 17, said he hoped that Abby would be found safe. “She’s younger than me and she’s sailing around the world, and by herself, that’s even crazier,” he said. “She’s brave, I don’t even go into the ocean by myself.”

Guzman’s younger brother, Shawn, 15, said he didn’t think her attempt to sail around the world was reckless. “If it’s her dream to sail, and she wants to follow her dream, that’s courageous. “

Sunderland, out of necessity, abandoned her quest to become the youngest person to sail around the world alone, nonstop and unassisted. However, the 16-year-old was continuing her mission to become the youngest person to sail around the world.

Sailing experts said the Southern Indian Ocean where Sunderland was sailing when she apparently signaled emergency beacon locating devices on Thursday is known to be a difficult challenge. Charlie Nobles, executive director of the American Sailing Assn., said that winter storms in the Southern Hemisphere are fast approaching, creating rough waves that can reach dozens of feet high. He also said that there are fewer hours of light during the day, which can make navigating the waters difficult.

“There’s just not a lot of land in that part of the world,” Nobles said. “You have to follow certain patterns because you need the trade winds. Where she is right now is in between Australia and South Africa.”

Sailors had criticized Sunderland for leaving so late in the year for her journey. She departed from Marina del Rey on Jan. 23, later than she had wanted to because of equipment issues. She also had to make a stop in Mexico to make repairs, which wasted precious time before the approaching winter southern storms.

Nobles said that sailing around Cape Horn between South America and the Antarctic Peninsula was speculated to be Sunderland’s greatest challenge. But she rounded the cape in April without many issues, he said.

“A lot of people talk about the Horn because that’s what you hear about in National Geographic specials,” Nobles said. “But it wasn’t that big of a deal, fortunately, for her.”

Shortly after setting sail, Sunderland abandoned her quest to become the youngest person to sail around the world alone, without any stops or assistance.

“I don’t know enough facts to know whether this is something she necessarily could have avoided or if it was a bad decision,” Nobles said. “My hope was that if she was at a certain point in her journey, she would say, ‘I’m less concerned about a record than to try to make it through safely.’ “

Abby Sunderland’s brother, Zac, last year completed his solo sail around the world at age 17.

Sunderland’s latest entry on her blog Wednesday described hitting rough weather and winds at 45 knots. “Wild Eyes was great through everything, but after a day with over 50 knots at times, I had quite a bit of work to do,” she wrote about her vessel.

Her parents have said in news reports that they had persuaded Abby to get to the nearest port in the event that dangerous conditions arose.

Someone better get Obama on the phone…

Teenage Pregnancy

For many, this statement is authentic. In the United States, teenage pregnancies are decreasing. The reasoning ranges from safe sex programs and the parents being an operational part in their child’s life. There are ample of reasons why teenage pregnancies are decreasing in the last few years in the United States. When the statistics reveal that these figures are decreasing, many jump for joy at the probability that more teenagers are being safe and smart about sex. Many feel this is the help of many entities that their children are being safe. Some of the reasons why this is happening amongst teenagers in America are:

1. Public Attention – This is through programs such as: Purity camps, Condom distribution at schools and other programs that the public have stepped in and took over for the parents who refuse to teach their children. Yes, talking with your children about sex is difficult, but how much more difficult will it be to take care of a baby when you are too old to do it? That is why the public is stepping in.

2. Easy information – Fliers, pamphlets, and books are educating children more about the different diseases that are spread through intercourse and other forms of sex. Children are reading this and taking more initiative to protect themselves when they have sex. When teenagers were in the past, there was not that much information to give to people who were sexually active. This caused many outbreaks of AIDS and other harmful diseases.

3. Better policies – Different laws being passed in order to help rape victims or unfit mothers use abortion to solve the pregnancy problem are being implemented in many cities to reduce the amount of children born to unfit parents. There are many teenagers who look at these programs and feel that getting pregnant when you are not ready is a very bad idea.

When children have pregnancies, it can be dangerous. This is a big reason why teenagers are avoiding getting pregnant today. With the many advances in medical science, it makes it easier to solve the teenager’s problems with labor. However, the pains of delivery are what make many teenagers escape getting pregnant through improper safe sex methods. Keeping the information ready to the teenagers will keep the decrease the same. When you give out information to the children, it is their choices to whether or not they are going to follow them. You cannot force the methods upon them.

Michael Jackson’s chef Kai Chase, has finally spoken about Dr. Conrad Murray’s activities at the house, who is apparently emerging as a prime suspect in the investigation.

She claimed that she almost everyday saw the doctor come downstairs carrying oxygen tanks from the icon’s room, but on the unfortunate day he did not and she “thought maybe Mr. Jackson is sleeping late.”

“I started preparing the lunch and then I looked at my cell phone and it was noon. About 12:05 or 12:10 Dr. Murray runs down the steps and screams, ‘Go get Prince!’ He’s screaming very loud,” the Telegraph quoted her as telling in an interview.

She narrated: “I run into the den where the kids are playing. Prince (Jackson’s oldest son) runs to meet Dr Murray and from that point on you could feel the energy in the house change.

“I walked into the hall and I saw the children there. The daughter was crying. I saw paramedics running up the stairs. We were all praying, ‘Help Mr Jackson be OK.’ Then everyone was very quiet.”

The sudden use of Oxygen tanks made her wonder for a minute on whats

The Food and Drug Administration(FDA) has lowered the age limit for morning-after pill to 17. It was previously available to only the age 18 and older. This step by the FDA was taken after a judge’s order to lower the age limit. Now 17 and older can get this morning-after pill to avoid unwanted pregnancies from over the counter without any prescription. Though this step was not really taken in the view to prevent teenage pregnancies it might help to an extent to lower them.

The drug consists of two pills which have to be taken within 72 hours of sexual intercourse to prevent a conception. The drug can also be purchased by a 17 year old male for his partner after showing an age proof at the pharmacy.

Lets see how this move will help in lowering the teenage pregnancy rates.
