Assignment 10 : Corruption hurting Mexico's fight against crime, Calderon says...

While i was reading the article (http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/la-fg-mexico10-2008dec10,0,2574405.story) the main thing that grabbed my attention was that even though people try stopping corruption in Mexico it keeps going on and even worse .It amazed me that people are trying to do something about corruption in Mexico because i mean they never try to solve problems.There is different kinds of corruption like police,government,work corruption and some other too.Calderon was talking about how they had broken corruption in the state oil company, in Mexican customs, public works agencies. Even then it doesn't stop.The main reason why corruption is interesting to me is that because people are not scared to get caught and its everywhere even for the dumbest reason ever they corrupt and its mainly at Mexico.

Assignment 8 :Hitlers Rise to Power

The March the Nazis did!!

Hitler

Swastika

While i watched this video i noticed three specific things which where: The symbol,The march, and Hitler.Everybody had that symbol which was the "Swastika".The people that where marching where wearing that little figure and everybody was doing this salute which was the way they saluted Hitler.Hitler for the non-Jew's was like a god to them.I noticed that when they marched they kinda ran a little bit and they would hold flags and had the swastika.

Another thing I noticed was the pride they had for being a Nazi.Hitler was one of the first people to be in the Nazi party he was like the leader.The Nazis where the ones that helped Hitler do everything in the holocaust.You could see the pride they had by the way they did there solute and how they would respond to Hitler with that anger against the Jews.They all had the same uniform which was the green or black suit and the red band around their arm and with a swastika symbol in the hand band(bracelet all the way up the arm).
