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. 

Social networking is a reality for most people. We all want the next website and we all want to be a part of it. But cyber bullying is somthing none of us want to be a part of so why do we take the risk.

My first point of view is about the ways you should act if you are a victim of cyber bullying: People who get bullyed should ferst of all block the bully second they save the everdence third tell somone you trust and get on to ut before somthind worse.

My second point of view is from the bully: People who think it is funny to make somone feel bad about themselves must have a sad life. I’m not saying you should feel sorry for the bully.

We all understand that when we become part of a website like for example msn there is that risk that we might be cyber bullied. We need to stop that risk. We should be able to be safe on the internet.

steeple chasing or jumps racing as been around or over 100 yeas. It started when to irish men had a bet about raising horses between to church steeples. Recently their have been a debate about if the sport should go on. One side is against and think it should be banned and one is for it and thinks it should go on because it is a tradition, and i am one of those people.

Firstly,if we didnt have jumps racing just imagine all the jobs that would be lost. Horse racing creates jobs from the jockey to the strapper all the way to the person behind the counter.

Secondly, horses love to jump and people love to watch it. So everyone that goes to watch, loves it so if people want to watch it they should be allowed. If you don’t want to watch then don’t go.\

Lastly, it is really entertaining not just for the people watching but for the jockey riding the horse and most of them are really good at it.

To conclude my peice i hope i have convinced you that steeple chasing should go on i really don’t agree, it’s a tradition.

One the news everyone has been talking about the oil spill and how it happened. Going out in a big ship in such bad weather isn’t such a good idea. Specially if you are lacking big masses of carge your just waiting for an accident to happen. Well the people in the Pacific Adventurer didn’t really think about it. They were out at sea and a big set of waves came straight towards them. They lost 2 big crates of cargo and on eof them punched a hole in their oil tank. Over 200,000 litres of oil leaked away.

This has made a huge disarster area along the cost leaving sixty km of cost line covered with diktusting oil.

The oil spill as you no has not spred over a popular beach so it dosen’t efect the people so much. But because there are hardly any people there are a lot of animals that love it there. So the marine life has been destroyed and so is anything that is living on the beaches for example birds and sand crabs.

The area will cost over 700000 million dollars to clean and the animals that they find with oil all of them that were living there will have to be thouraly cleaned and that will take over 3 weeks or more.

The concerquences for the people that were responsible should be that they have lernt a lestion that they should not go out in a boat in such bad wether. They should help to clean up and pay some money towortds the people helping to clean up

Every day thousand and thousands of people are working all over the world but just immagen if all of that came to a stop. And lots and lots of people lost there jobs. Well a lot of people would be very disapointed.

Every one knows that  own a company have to make a tough decision and Bonds is one those companys They have to make the decision if they want to save money or have that bad feeling on there back that they have cost people there jobs and ruined there lives for a long time antill they get back on there feet that might talk a year or more.

Sending your compeny to Chiner saves you a lot of mony so i see why companys like Pacific brandsare doing it.I mean Bonds designs all the clothing they just cant aford to make it. I  think it is a really good idear. But we really see it  but we take Chiner and th workres for granted.

Since the fires have come through and burnt many animals and the wild life, people have been helping to protect and care for them. Places like zoo’s and  wild life sanctuaries are the ones talking there time to care.

Animals such as posiums, wombats,koalas and kangaroos are left homeless. Many are burnt and have been bandiged. Every so often they have to be put to sleep an have to chang there bandiges so they dont get infected were they have been burnt. After a while all the animals have the chance to go back in to the wild after they are perfictly well.

I hope all the animals get better ang we should all say thanks to the people that help save all animals.

Recently a number of people have been attacked through out Austraila by sharks. Some people to reduce the resk of being attacked we should cull the sharks.

A girl in Tasmania was surfing with her cousin when a shark went for her leg draging her under while hes cousin tried to get the shark to go away. They padild back in to shore. Called the hospital. She was at the hospital for over 2 weeks with 200 stickers in her leg. And to think that he was only 13 when this all happend.

So know people think it is okay to go and cull the sharks because of what they have done to us. But sharks only do it because we are in their territory.   

As you should all know over the last few weeks we have had some terrible bushfires. Hearts and lifes have been broken an can never be replased. And to think someone lit the churchill fire and thought he was going to get away with it. There have been 7 fires over victoria most of the fires reaching the temperature of 1400c. Listening to the news over the last few weeks make you feel so sorry for the people who had to go through it.

Over the last few days things have been getting better. With the arsonists been caught and the donation and funds being raised all over Australia and in schools. All the people that were victoms of the fires have been living in tents that the army have set up for them. They have also been getting the donations from everyone.

So now after whats happened the Government and others are going to controlled burns so there is less risk of fires like this to happen again. They are using communications over the phones so more people get out if it ever happens again and have more chance of survival
