what if they might do something like that again?and ian adds that officials should consider whether the criminal can get a job or if he has a place to live and family support.olivia suggests that governors look really hard at the criminals background before giving him or her a pardon.and will says if someone is convicted of a murder, then it would be the smarter or common sense answer not to let them out of jail.all right. before we go today, we are visiting a playful conversation in alabama.from skyscrapers all the way down to the street, everything here is built by blockheads.this is a lego convention. fans and builders came together for the recent event. some of these creations are no joke. one display uses around half a million pieces, and is estimated to be worth $200,000.for many lego fans, the hobby began when they were kids. they started off small, and then -things built from there. this story had us toying around with several punsibilities, like its time for us to lego of your attention. but we hope youll block out 10 minutes again tomorrow for more cnn student news. see you then.有人肯定知道答案是萨曼塔加维。她是我们下一个来自玛丽斯诺报道的重点。由于加维研究蚌类，所以这名高中学生正在争取一个100000美元的奖学金竞赛。这是艰苦的比赛,但是毕竟加维的一些经验能够克服逆境。17岁的加维是一个很有抱负的对贝壳眼光敏锐的海洋生物学家。他们聚集在一起。她花了多年的时间研究贝类及这种生物如何保护自己。但是在纽约的高中,她也学到了一些教训,那就是在受到攻击时要变得强硬。她入围著名的科学天才英特尔搜索的半决赛。但是她在无家可归的庇护所得到了这个令人兴奋的消息。她的家人已经在12月31日遭到驱逐。这是令人担忧的,你知道。这非常令人担忧,因为你想我将会何去何从?好像无处可去,我将会在一个无家可归的住所?萨曼塔的父母去年在一次车祸中受伤。他们同时失去工作,这使他们生活开始变得拮据。在家庭中苦苦挣扎,萨曼塔表示她获得的灵感来源于学校和她的科学教师,丽贝卡格雷拉,后者是两次染上乳腺癌但仍然存活的幸运儿。她告诉我们她的故事。我想,哇,这太令人惊奇了。我要帮助她。听到这句话感觉如何?这是双向的。我从萨曼那里得到的是她的谦逊,她有能力帮助他人,而且会竭尽其所能。萨曼塔的事迹引起了纽约官员们的注意。他们现在为加维家庭提供公共住宅。这是你知道,这是最令人惊异的事情,你可以问。我知道每个人我们都在这里落泪,我们已经泣不成声。流着眼泪,萨曼塔的母亲奥尔嘉遭受着质疑。我有时候会哭泣。什么?竟然发生这样的事?是的，这事发生了。萨曼莎的父亲表示他的女儿一直是一个斗士,当她出生的时候，体重仅两磅。她已经从一个小巨人变成了女强人。cnn玛丽斯诺，从纽约为您发回的报道。精彩的故事。这是我们2012年第一篇博客报道。你可以在博客中与我们分享你对上次主题的见解与感想。我们曾问过总统或州长赦免一名罪犯时应该考虑什么。来自阿丽娜的声音：要审查犯罪的严重性。赦免的人肯定不能对社会再次造成威胁。奥利表示领导人应该看看罪行,罪犯的行为及他们的拘留时间。她补充道,“它将会发送错误的信息,即使是在你的罪名成立,你并不需要支付全部罚款。”妮可问道:“如果罪犯没有改变怎么办?如果他们可能继续做那样的事怎么办?”伊恩补充道,官员应该考虑罪犯是否可以得到一份工作或者一个住的地方，当然家庭的支持也是必要的。奥利维亚表示州长在赦免前应该非常仔细看罪犯的背景。威尔表示如果是谋杀,那更聪明的做法或常识是不让他们出狱。好的
