Fashion Industry

  FOR  

 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.

Venezulean Orchestra

In Venezuelan there is a lot of violence going around in the neighbourhood and around on the streets. It is a very poor place and most people can’t afford good supplies and education for their kids.

13 year old Genesis lives in Venezuelan where there is violence going around in her neighbourhood. She lives in a poor resident where every time she comes home she has to walk up 12 stories to get to her small apartment where her whole family of 8 lives. But Genesis only wants to do one thing and that is play the clarinet but the problem is that her family can’t afford the instrument nor the lessons. But that doesn’t matter in Venezuelan because of the special government project. It   Started When the Government started to steer kids away from the violence and then giving them free instruments and lessons. The kids practice nearly every day and now love to play music but Genesis’s dream is to play in a professional band.

I think it is good how the government is giving free lessons and instruments because now they are giving a chance for kids who aren’t as wealthy to become a musician and they can go somewhere in their lives so I think it is great what they are doing.

Swimsuits

At the world Swimming Championship in Rome over forty world records were broken. Has technology gone too far. It has because far to many records have been broken in one week. Scientists say its the swimsuits that the swimmers are wearing.

They are called polyurethene swimsuits. The swimsuit is supposed to make the swimmer swim faster because the material is impermeable. This means that water can’t get through the material it just runs of it. which will make the swimmer glide through the water. It also helps the swimmer float so then they are not using extra effort to keep themself above the water.

I think they shouldn’t ban the swimsuits because if they do  no ones ever going to beat the records again. So if they don’t ban the swimsuits people will then have a chance to beat records and then the Championships next year will be challenging and technology will continue making swimsuits.

Steeple racing

Steeple racing or jumps racing has been around for more than 100 years. It started with two Irish men who had a bet which was racing their horses between two church steeples.

Steeple racing is a entertaining sport. It attracts more people to come watch and dress fancing. It makes lots and lots of money because of all the betting people do. People love to watch the horses race and check to see if their horse wins.

Steeple racing creates jobs for lots of people for example: The jokey, the trainer, bar tenders, people sell the food and drinks and lots more. Every time the horses race people make bets and some people put in lots of money which goes to the people who work their and also other people.

 Everyone knows that horses jump, but do they want to. They do or else why would they jump over everything why wouldn’t they just stop and go around the jump.Now since they have been making steeple racing safer and safer less horses will get hurt when the are jumping.

Steeple racing is becominng safer and safer for the horses. I think we should give the new precautions a chance and keep steeple racing for its history,economics and fans.   

Oil Spill

Last week ex-Cyclone Hamish moved down the coast of Queensland making big waves and winds. The Adventurer was on its way from Newcastle to brisbane when it was running headlong into huge waves. Thirty-one containers of dangerous chemical were lost over the side                                                     

Sixty-Kilometres of coastline was affected by the oil spill which was twenty thousand litres of dangerous chemicals.

The impact on the marine animals terrible because turtles and dolphins and many other animals can chock on the oil. It ruins birds feathers and it can leave them flightless and sick.

The area is being cleaned up and all the oil on the beach has to be cleaned up as well. The government is estamating that it will take over a week to clean and it will cost ove seven hundred thousand dollars.

I think the consequenses should be that they should clean the beach and as well and help the animals and they should check what the weather will be like before going out to sea.  

Pacific brands

Lots of people are losing their jobs because of products being made in China. Lots of products are being made in Australia its just that products in China are much cheaper because China is a developing country unlike Australia which is adeveloped country because our wages are higher and China’s wages are alot lower because they have many more people who are poor and badly  money so that is why they put up with getting paid alot lower wages than Australia. Thats why why products are alot cheaper over there.

Recently in Australia some major factories are being shut down because the owner of the factories are sending their buisiness over seas because it is cheaper to get products made there. So that means if companies are paying less for their products to be made they’ll have nore money left over which means bigger profits. In recent years alot of companies have done the same thing as pacific brands and its now estimated that ten percent of clothes sold in Austarlia are made in Australia. The cost of employing people in Australia is very exspensive as the government are impossing alot of extra costs such as superannuation, workcover and payroll tax which they don’t have in China.

i think it would be better if people didn’t lose their jobs and jobs were kept in Australia because it would be better for the economy as people spend more money as they have got jobs and get paid.   

Animal rescue

Over in Healsville where the fire has been animals are been rescued and been taken to the sancturary vets.  Lots of animals have been injured and are starving and lost their homes but animals have not survived this terrible disaster.

 Mandrin the adult ring tail possum was burnt on her paws so they had to bandage them up while they put her to sleep so it will heal perfectly.Rex the sugar glider has lost his home and has had no food for a long time. Mary the pet wombat is staying at the vet because her owners have lost their home and shes lapping up lots of love right now. Like many other animals a wallaby has been burnt on its feet and it will need  a lot of treating which will take a lot of time and care.So if anyone finds an injured or lost or anything like that they should take it to the nearest vet.

I think its sad how all the animals have lost their homes and food and are now starving because of this terrible disaster. It is good that they are been taken care of and are well looked after.

Bushfire Disaster

Black Saturday was a disaster. It happened last week and it was bigger than Ash Wednesday. Many animals died and many people lost there houses, cars, pets and family. The fire was 1400 degrees and the places that had fires were Marysville, Kinglake and Churchill. Marysville and kinglake was were most people died. 

Right now stacks of people are giving lots and lots of donations that they say they think they dont need anymore. They have caught the arsonist who lit  Churchill’s fire but they havent caught anyone else.  In lots of schools they are raising lots of money to donate which is great

I suggest that they should alert peole in everyway they can if there is a bushfire coming. If the power goes and if you have a mobile phone then they should send you something to alert you if a bushfire is coming. If there is a bushfire coming or if where you live has lots of bushfire a way to keep your house safe is to remove things like trees, outside furniture and play equipment.
