The fashion industry should be forced to use the image code because unfortunetley the are a lot of people comparing there bodies to models.it can affect the way people feel about there bodies witch can end up with eating disorders and health problems.

everyday on tv magasigns billboards there is not one glimpse that you would see a normal person and that is now what we are trying to push the fashion industry to force to put normal people on the runway.

so i think we should let  normal people on the runway.

Every day in papers and every were we look in magazines we see beautiful people they have no faults no pimples no wrinkles they are perfect and it is having a huge impact in younger people.

The fashion industry should enforce people’s natural looks by using the image code. It would defiantly help the way people feel about themselves. Take Sarah Murdoch for instance she has no image reconstruction and she feels great. We should stop putting pressure on models to look absolutely perfect and we should all stride to feel good in our own skin. 

So many girls look up to the modelling industry. You wish that you could look just like them, they have the fame and fortune. The models are always representing the magazines and sort of ordering you to be just like them!  So many girls do whatever it takes. Even some take it too far, but the truth is it’s all fake! So the Government is trying to change all that!

How come industries are saying what is beautiful and what is not. I feel they should admire everyone’s differences, well i say why does THE LOOK have to be with a clear face (no freckles or pimples), tanned skin, on the tip of anorexic, mussecly all over for the men and a  nice long figure? Why can’t they just get it into their head that not everyone can acheive that look!

D id you know that models aren’t as beautifull as they seem, infact they are only half as pretty! The industries just fix there pimples and freckles on the computer. The trick is airbrushing another colour over the top of the picture. Also men can have their skin airbrushed on their stomach to make it look like they have bigger abs! No offense but i would be in total embarrassment if pretending to be fake just to get onto a billboard ect..! This is why I admire Sarah Murdock!

Sarah Murdock has decided to let every one see her wrinkles and she is proud of that! Anyway she is still georgeous because everyone can see the real her!

The Government has only been able to disencourage the industries to keep going with the computer effects, but i feel that will change some day.

           Taser guns get their name from the book Tom A. Swifts Electric Rifle use the first letter of every word to make the word Taser. Continue Reading »

Taser guns are used in the police force in only some states. They are instead of guns so the police don’t have to kill someone to control a situation.

Firstly, the taser should be allowed in the police force because they decrease the number of death by police. A young 15 year old boy had some emotional issues at a skate park and the police could not control him so they hand to shoot him and he died. If police had had a teaser gun then that boy would still be alive and would have never do it again.

Secondly, another reason taser guns should be used in the police force is because if the bad guy gets hold of it they won’t do as much damage. For example is the robber had taken the gun from a police man then he could kill him. If the police man had a taser gun then the robber could not do as much damage.

In conclusion the taser gun should be used in the police because they are a safer option for the public and the police force.

       How do you stop a criminal without killing them? There is an easy response to that a Taser. Tasers are electrical weapons that send great waves of electricity to stun a criminal or to stop someone right in there tracks.

       Tasers originally came from a book called Tom A. Swifts Electric Rifle. But back in the 70s a man called Jack Cover built his own electric rifle and called it a taser.But now these weapons have come into question about there safeness and their power against criminals.

        Originally the power of the tasers were only suposed to stun the criminals but now more voltage has been added to these weapons and they are becoming deadly to people. In America every 8 years 337 people die from tasers.

         Families of people who have died by tasers are now taking legal action againts the police and the people who make them. Last year a 15 year old boy died at a skate park from a taser.

 What is a perfect body? A perfect body is a models body.  Everyone reads and looks at the magazines, they all see what shapes and sizes a model is. Some girls compare themselves to models and turn their bodies into something that doesn’t look right.

A lot of girls are comparing themselves to models which are making them not eat and they are becoming anorexic. The main reason why they are becoming anorexic is because of when these girls look in the magazine they are actually not seeing the real deal of the model. The fashion Industry is primping the models to make them look better for example they might change these parts on the model: Make the skin look smoother, take away all wrinkles, change eye colour and they might change the shape of your nose.

Some models look like they are only 20 years old when actually they could be nearly 40 this is because the fashion industry are making them look younger by computers and makeup. To stop the computerising the fashion industry say that they might hire younger girls to be models which would mean that they could use their actual body because there will be less primping and computerising going on.

I think that the fashion industry should use the new body image because then less people will think they are obese because they will see the actual model and what they actually look like. I think it is better being yourself then being all primped up.

Most people like to read magazines in their spare time but some people are getting offended by some of the photos. Many of the models aren’t what they look like they may have had wrinkles removed, body fat removed and re-do the unwanted parts of their face.

Firstly Girls 10-16 are comparing themselves to 18-30 year old models they think they have to be perfect to be famous like the women in the magazines but they don’t realize that the people in the magazine are airbrushed to make their skin perfect and make them look skinnier but really there not so perfect. The girls that want to become like those women in those magazines starve themselves and but so much make up on their skin that it’s destroys their skin from all the chemicals. They don’ realise that it’s not real.

Secondly many of the people reading the magazines are getting offended by the perfect people and are trying to be like them, not knowing that most of their “Perfect looks” are just edited.

Lastly it is really bad for some people’s health, starving themselves just to look thinner and also if you were poor you would have to go to the nearest beauty shop to buy makeup just to look good.

We are always seeing pretty models on magazines, telvision adds and on the catwalk. They are always so perfect and pretty they don’t seem to have a single blemish on them. Why is that? It’s because they airbrush their rinkles, pimples and all different sorts of skin problems they might have. No one can be this perfect it just doesn’t seem right why don’t they use people all different shapes and sizes and people from different cultres. It might make people feel better about themselves because everyone is beautiful from the inside.

Everyone wants to be so perfect like a model but this has caused quite a bit contraversy. Some young adolescents have been starving themselves so they can be thin and pretty like models but this hasn’t turned out the way they expected. It is a very bad thought if you think that kids who are still developing are starving themselves because their not thin enough and can not appreciate themselves for who they are. I honestly think what does it matter, your perfect just the way you are.

Big, small, old or young were all pretty in different ways. Many of us think it’s pretty to be skinny and lots of muscle but it’s not only that you can be a very pretty person from the inside. Who cares if you have wrinkles and didn’t when you were young your still the same person. Who cares if you are big and were slim when you were young, and who cares if your the ugliest person on earth and were pretty when you were young your still the same person on the inside.

Models aren’t everything don’t get yourself stuck into the industry you’ll just turn into a fake perosn when you older and no one likes a bad botox job.

Police men have been looking for a way to protect themselves other than guns, so they decided to use a electricity zapper. It’s named T.A.S.E.R, Taser it was named after a book named “Tom A. Swift’s Electric Rifle” because it was originally used for the idea laser gun. The Taser isn’t a new weapon in the USA but it is to Australia.

You are probably wondering how this “Taser gun” works, let me explain. The Taser gun has a wire that shoots to the attacker and will attach to them, then you would release the electricity to stun the attacker, the attacker will be stunned for a couple of seconds that will give a enough time for the police to arrest him.

Although it has helped out allot it also has killed some people, the police don’t think the Taser killed these people because it was dangerous and harmful but they think these people might have some issues before the attack happened. But some people disagree and are requesting for the Taser gun for to be banned.

Personally I think we should keep the Taser gun it is a lot LESS harmful then guns and life’s will be spared if cops will ever need to protect themselves or someone else.
