gun fashion

today may,1,2012 my journalism teacher told us in the near future clothing lines are considering making clothes to fit guns. the trend its self doesnt sound like it would end good since now todays youth are doing more dangerous things than back in the day. in some states its legal for people to carry guns. but it could cause problems since many already carry fire arms without a permit or legal papers to carry and cause many problems. the idea of more people carrying and clothing lines are creating gun fashion just doesnt seem like it would end well since more guns on street or on people would just add up to more violence. i dont think americans shouldnt be allowed to carry guns since many use them to kill for personal reasons just because of beef's or even just because of family members having problems with that person. i think gun laws are too permissive in many ways on the youth and elders in america. the laws arent to restrictive since if they were trayvon martin wouldnt have died and george zimmerman wouldnt had've a fire arm since he was a past offender of violence against the law. if more people carried guns there would be more crime rising than in the last 20 years. criminals wouldnt be scared they would just be more cautious and plan out more ways to get what they want. not all criminals arent all simple minded. gun fashion would just encourage the youth to disobey more laws and own fire arms and use them on other americans they dont like or even just play with them causing danger to themseleves and others.

health fair

yesterday april 12th philadelphia high school parkway west had a health fair that was created by 12th graders for the whole school. the fair had tables that had different topics at each table. for example at the health fair one table a 12th grade student was giving out panthlets about whats the difference between a std and an sti. did you know that a std stands for a sexually transmitted disease. and a sti stands for a sexually transmitted infection. the table gave alot of information about std awareness. the rapid increase of stds between ages 10 and 18. lets teens know what are stds , and how to prevent and protect yourself from getting them. other tables had a topic about abortion , and how to stop abortion. the table gave out a panthlet about there are other options that abortion. did you know many think abortion is killing a life. the panthlet gives information about adpotion. the panthlet gives information about how to look for the right family for your child to be raised by. and information about giving your child up for adoption is a good thing in the long run since some good people are unable to conceive children their self. then at another table it raises awareness of staying in good shape and staying healthy. at that table Urban nutrition initative Mr.Byran gives out oranges and gives out a magazine on great tips for teens to make a healthier dinner for themseleves. did you know obesity is becoming more popular for teens between the ages of 13 through 19. however at another table they gave out condoms and lubricate just incase the teens want to have sex in the future. other tables gave out information about parents being overprotective parents and how sometimes its not allowing and preparing the child to get ready for the real life without depending on their parents for everything. Joel Austin teaches fathers to be fathers and has classes at west philadelphia Ymca on 52 street every tuesday. one other table was named health start it helps young mothers get help while at the early stages of their pregnancies. they offer an support system , resources , gives information about pregnancy. asks the mothers if they have health insurance so they can find ways to help them and their unborn child or their newborns.
i think this health fair was an opener for other students that are in the same age frame and grade as me. 9 times out of 10 some parents may not think their child is not doing drugs , having sex unprotected, over weight and may face the chances of getting type 2 dietbeats. even though i have been witnessed of my closest friends getting pregnant because they didnt think about use a condom or even thinking about birth control , i have seen my friends get abortion after abortion several times. i have lots of friends that dont think about the cautions of having unprotected sex and either end up with H.I.V or even other life threatning Std's.

Miss Universe Canada Disqualifies Transsexual Contestant: She was Born a Boy

i was reading an article on yahoo.com today on march 27,2012 and one of the main top stories was on
Miss Universe Canada Disqualifies Transsexual Contestant: She was Born a Boy.http://shine.yahoo.com/beauty/miss-universe-Canada-disqualifies-transsexual-contestant-she-born-192000420.html
 the article is mostly about one of the miss universe contestants that was representing Canada and she was disqualified because she was not actually born a woman and was actually born a man. " Miss Universe Canada officials have banned 23-year-old transsexual Jenna Talackova from participating in the pageant finals to be held in Toronto in May, 2012. The Vancouver contestant was one of sixty-five women chosen to compete in the national contest" and also the article states " Reports say that Denis Davila, national director of Miss Universe Canada, asserts that every contestant must be a "naturally born female." Critics of the decision claim that the rules do not specifically address sex change or plastic surgery." furthermore the article also stated that  “Talackova is calling it a human rights issue. She says that she knew she was a girl by age four, Ms Jenna had sex reassignment surgery at the age of nineteen. Talackova had previously competed in both transsexual and women's beauty pageants, however after this its not going to stop her from continuing her dream of showing the world her destin beauty she dreamed to be at the age of four.from yahoo.com
Discriminating a person just because they were born the opposite gender than what they believe they are or even as like is completely wrong all together , transgender people have feelings and act like us. we’re all human so we should all be treated the same , no different than the other. http://shine.yahoo.com/healthy-living/sex-change-women-allowed-enter-miss-universe-175900662.html today on April 10th the story about Jenna Talackova had been nationalized maybe not as big as trayvon martin but its big . she made her debut on TV on good morning America , because she wasn't allowed to compete in miss universe pageants she has now changed how the world views transgenders participating in miss universe contest, due to her now transgenders are allowed to participate in the miss universe contest.

                

Man On The Run Has Time To Update His Facebook While on the run

today april 10th 2012, on yahoo.com i read an article about a washington man on the run from police updates his criminal activity on the social media site " Facebook". 26 year old Travis A. Nicolaysen was on the run from police since two nights ago accroding to the article " He was convicted of 5 felonies including domestic violence, burglary and theft of a firearm, police said. He is wanted by the Washington state Department of Corrections for failing to check in with his community corrections officer since January. Nicolaysen had posted on his Facebook account "'got away thanks bro'. furthermore Travis A. Nicolaysen posted to his account: "Cops all over you."family members and friends advised him to keep on the run from police and family members tell Travis to turn himself in so he could set an example for his children. also according to the article Travis was reportedly been accused of assaulting his girlfriend on March 28, police said. Better make that his ex-girlfriend. In a post Saturday, Nicolaysen changed his relationship status to single  due to the altercation. The article also goes on to state that police have already issued a warrant out for Nicolaysen arrest and are watching his Facebook account for any clues to where he may be. The article went on to state “Facebook tells its users that it may share certain information if it gets requests from law enforcement, and that it does have some ability to track people via IP addresses and GPS location. Serving Facebook with a search warrant is a possibility, but there are no immediate plans for that, Smith said. For now, police hope the publicity alone may be enough to flush him out in a city the size of Port Angeles, which has a population of 19,000 and is about 65 miles northwest of Seattle on the Olympic Peninsula."In a smaller community, it's harder to disappear and be anonymous," Smith said. "We're hoping people who know him call police.

I think this man ( Travis ) should have been arrested . especially since his town isn’t that big so the police should be able to find him easily since the family and friends were making comments on his facebook which result in the police watching his account for his trace of his recent movements. Which hasn’t gotten them far, they need to talk to friends and family members and even his ex-girlfriend who accused him of assaulting her.

Trayvon Martin , Miami Heat Takes A Stand For Trayvon Martin

 


i was reading an article on necolebitchie.com about trayvon martin. trayvon martin was a 17 year old teen who was killed just 100 yards away from the house he was staying at. trayvon fit the stereo-type description of most black males , he wore a gray hoodie with the hood up walking home when he was being followed by a fellow neighborhood watchman. unfortunately his killer the watchman wasn't arrested because he told police that he shot him in self-defense.on February 26,2012 trayvon martin was killed, now shortly a month later his death shocked the world it started a massive outrage all over the world. now each media site such as facebook, twitter, and tumbler, or even YouTube. everyone has taken part of the take a stand for trayvon , now theres shirts and hoodies being made with his picture on it. now everyday theres more and more evidence being brought to light about this outrage. some are even comparing this to the Emmett teel case which ended with his killers being let go and trayvon killer never being arrested. celebrities and NBA stars are all over taking a stand for trayvon which is shown on necolebitchie.com.the entire Miami Heat are all wearing gray hoodies and have their hoods up in honor of trayvon. honestly this has just set us back another 50 something years for what happen. this outbreak wouldn't have happened if the Florida state law was "Shot first then ask questions".". This case shouldn’t have lasted this long for this many weeks of the parents of martin not being able to sleep with the neighbor hood watchman being allowed to live each day without the burden of guilt of shooting their son. Or even the second thought of why should he kill the teen. The neighborhood watchman was recorded by the police just simply profiling the martin for no apparent reason at all. The watchman should have simply let the police handle it instead of following the teen and taking matters into his own hands. Obvious there is no justice in this at all and this will be dragged out for many more months until the watchman is arrested for killing trayvon martin.

For Women under 30, most births occur outside marriage

today march 12th ,2012 we read an article in class about the increase of children being born outside of a marriage, and that marriage is less common now. the article was written by Jason Deparle and Sabrina , Tavernise. the article takes place lorain , Ohio. in the article it states "Among mothers of all ages, a majority--59 percent in 2009-- are married when they have children. but the surge of births outside marriages  among younger women -- nearly two thirds of children  in the united states  are born to mothers under 30 -- is both a symbol of the transforming family and a hint of coming generational change." furthermore in the article it stated " by the mid-1990s, such figures looked quaint: a third of americans were born outside marriage. Congress largely blame welfare , imposed tough restrictions . now the figure 41 percent and 53 percent  for children born to women under 30 , according to child trends . which analyzed 2009 data from the national center for health statistics.  Also in the article it states “in lorain as eles where , explantions for martial decline start with home economics: men are worth less than they used to be. Among men with some college but no degrees, earings have fallen 8 percent in the past 30  years , according to the bureau of labor statistics, while the earinings of their female counterparts have risen by 8 percent.

I think the article is true about now mostly every female under 30 is having children without being married. Its because most guys or females are usually living in sin and well living together are usually the ones to get pregnant but then often times they break up which ends in a single parent. Most females under the age of 30 don’t need a guy/boy-friend/man to be there and help pay for the bills and take care  their children. Now and days publicized marriages aren’t very popular within a lot of place and communities. I don’t really have an opinion on whether it’s a good thing for women to have a child or children outside of a marriage. It’s a very bad trend because not a lot of women under 30 that are educated higher than high school or even get to go to college. I don’t expect to get married in the future because marriage is a burden and it changes everything. I don’t think I would wait till I was married to start having children. Honestly I would like to but I know it wouldn’t happen.

Thousands of spiders blanket Australian farm after escaping flood

i was reading an article on yahoo.com the link is (http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/thousands-spiders-blanket-Australian-farm-escaping-flood-165958059.html). the article was about how wolf spiders had taken over a place called wagga wagga in Australia. according to the article the spiders took over the land rather than stay in their own habitat because of the flooding. in the article it states " the Reuters reports that the flooding forced 8,000 people out of their homes. it was reported that for each temporarily displaced person , several types of spiders took over and ballooning usual for spiders to escape rising water. quoted from the passage, "Thankfully for local residents, the occupying arachnids are not likely to set up permanent residence, a la the 1977 William Shatner clunker Home of the spiders."  according to the weather reports say the flood waters in Wagga Wagga have begun reducing. this means that locals will soon be returning to their homes and the wolf spiders will also be returning to their natural underground habitats.
And it turns out the spiders are actually doing quite a bit of good while setting up shop above ground. The spiders are feasting on mosquitoes and other insect populations that have boomed with the increased moisture brought about by the rising waters.
i think that this is very odd for spiders to do to human lands. how can theses 8,000 people come back if their homes have been transformed into a thousand spider ballooning festival. i feel like this would be a serious challenge once the flooding completely goes down. would the spiders stay or go back to their natural underground habitats.
