John Edwards charges appear likely Friday

John Edwards will likely face charges on friday june third due to the fact of his extramarital affair and his smuggling of his own campaign money to cover up his affair during the 2008 presidential election. His lawyer, Greg Craig, was flown up to North Carolina earlier in the week and is said to be working out a deal with the prosecution. Even though he is supposedly being fully charged with taking of the money, he has still had the full support and backing of the State of North Carolina. He also, if charges are officaly filed, will be stripped of his liscence to practicing law, and would not even be able to be an attorney for the poor.

I believe that this man should be stripped of his law liscence. He should be stripped of it becuase of the fact that he stole money that people donated to his cause to run for the President of the United States. He, in wanting to run for president, should not have been straying from his wifes side, who by the way was going through the treatment for breast cancer, and not been dropping his pants all along the campaign trail. The worst part about this is not even the taking of the money, the worst part is his image. He tried to uphold the image of him being this family man, who would do anything for his family and that they were religous and promoted their religon, and yet he goes and breaks one of the holy sacraments. Yes, i understand that everyone makes mistakes, but at the same time if you expect to lead a country, you better be pretty close to fool proof.

Microsoft give first look at Touch Windows-8

Today, Microsoft released the new prototype for the new Windows 8. And its really really similar to the newly release Microsoft 7 for the phone. Its not surprising though, the Windows 8 is made basically for touch screen and phones that dont have keyboards and dont require a mouse. Microsoft Windows 8 is just the temporary name for it until a new, better version can offically be released to the media and public. One disadvantage to the new software, is that all new touch screen electronics wont be able to run the older versions of software because there will be no compatibility layer.

I believe that all of these new programs and applications for phones and other electronics are a great idea..but at the same time they all are too expensive for someone to have to try to stay updated when they dont have compatibility modes. When they are compatible life is so much easier, but when its not, its just a struggle. I think that they should have to put a compatibility mode in due to the fact that its not possible for people to use the software that they purchase without it.
