Paragraph one Hi I'm Trevor and today im going to talk to you about bc passing a law about regulating tanning beds.THis law prevents you to tan if you under the age of 18. This law will be put into action in the fall and I don't really have an opionion on this topic because I don't use tanning beds and no body in my family has every tanned at least in my life.So I am all for the no tanning. Paragraph 2 BC is not the first one to ban tanning in Canada or in the world so this no tanning rule is good for many reasons like tanning before the age of 35 raises the risk of melanoma[ which is a deadly type of cancer] by 75 present! If you still tan after knowing that risk than your crazy and you care to much about what looks good and what doesn't.As a smart person be said "I know that I would rather be alive With the skin that I was given,than die With the skin I so desperately wanted" Keethleen Banared. Paragraph 3

1 hi my name is rajan and I will be talking to you about b.c passing a new law about underaged tanning beds. Basically b.c has made a new law about kids under 18 using a tanning bed. This is a good idea because little kids and 16 year olds were over using and abusing tanning beds they were using it every week and if you were cool you had to have the best tan. The problem with this is it can lead to major skin cancer disses in just 2 years they could get skin cancer and die by the age of 19 that's not enough time to live your life! 2 They should completely ban tanning bed because even your adults it can be very dangerous you can build up an immunity and just because you are older dosen't mean you can over use it as well. Instead of using those dangerous tanning beds use a spray tan those don't heat your skin they just color it to what ever color you want. But really is their any point to coloring you body you should be happy what color your skin is and not because change it just because of the jersey shore people but if they and others contiu on this path they will soon enough have skin cancer and sadly die. 3 This is why the government of b.c made this law about minors using tanning beds. Not I have told you about tanning bed what it does to you and what you can do instead now it's your turn to take action together we can eliminate those bright blue death traps called ramming beds.

Bullying needs to become a crime.

Bullying should be a crime. To me think that bullying should be a crime because so many people have lost so much self respect and have had such bad lives because of people bullying then until they were so depressed that hey don't even leave their homes. I have read about people in the newspaper who have either killed themselves or even murdered their bullies because of all of the stress and hardship they had gone through in the past days, weeks, months or even years. I thin that if bullying were to becomes a crime tha there would be such a small number or cases of bullying that it would be almost extinct. If it were extinct there sold be so much less stress for those kids that they would all do better in school. That may be a reason that many people are doing very bad a school because all of those kids can only think about go home or at lunch time when they are going to get their lunch money stolen or they may be beat up on their way home from school. I know that if I were being bullied every day I would not be doing very well at school because that's all that I would be thinking about. If you didn't know that about 75% of school shootings and fights are because of bullying? And that 1 out of every 6 students through their lives go through some sort of bullying? Just think for a second, if approximately 1500 students go to Fraser Heights Secondary that means that over 250 students our school are currently being bullied or have experienced bullying some time in their lives. Isn't that TERRIBLE?? So if bullying was actually illegal none of these 250 students at our school would have ever been bullied and they all would be doing a lot better in school. I researched this a lot and many underaged drinkers and drug users (not saying there is a good age to do drugs) only use these drugs because they think that it will make their lives more easy going. But in reality it will just make their lives a lot worse. So if we could all work together to make bullying an illegal act it could make our world a much better place. Much less under aged drinking and drug use, less stress at school, less fights, less suspensions and students being expelled, and lastly there will be way less student cutting themselves or even killing themselves from the bullying.

School district regulating lunches?

I honestly do not often bring a full lunch to school because I do not have enough time to make a big lunch and I don't have any time the night before because I have lacrosse practices almost everyday so when I get home I just go to bed, so I usually just eat when I get home. Some people have their parents make them lunches everyday but thats up to the parents. So for the school districts to be monitoring our lunches and making us make full healthy lunches may not be good for some people.

Some of the good things about the school district regulating our lunches would be that everybody would have equal healthy lunches everyday. I know that some people bring very unhealthy lunches everyday involving pizza, chips, pop and other food items full of sugar and salt. Also some people go across the street to buy food like DDDN and Chesters who both have quite unhealthy food. (Even though in DDDN's name they say it's good for you.) So buying lunch is not always the best idea because it's so bad for you. Therefore if the school district was monitoring what we ate many students who eat bad meals from the fast food resturants would be way healthier and be able to perform in school and sports far better.

The parts of the school district monitoring what we eat. If the school district was monitoring me what I ate for lunch I would be in big trouble because I am a big offender for bringing bad lunches to school. Sometimes I will just bring 2$ to buy a drink and a granola bar or somehting. I may bring a sandwich to school maybe once per week if I am granted the time in the morning to make it because I am not willing to wake up any earlier. Other people just don't like to eat healthy because ither they are just too lazy to make a good lunch or just don't even want to eat healthy because they would rather fork down some Chesters or a bunch of pizza from fresh slice.

In conclusion I personally think that if the school district monitored our lunches many people would be alot more healthy so that they could perform better in school and sports. Then again, the people who do not have time to fix up a big hearty lunch before school could be in lot's of trouble. So all in all if the school district were to monitor what we eat I think that it would be for the best for the vast majority of the students.

Is social networking good or bad and my opinion on it.

I do not use social networking such as Facebook, Twitter or Linkedin as much as many other people do. Some people may use social networking from 10 minutes to 6 hours in JUST ONE DAY. Isn't that crazy? There are a large number of adults and children who have become addicted to social networking. because of the chatting capabilities, games and gossip.

Some of the benefits of social networking are being able to talk to other people and meet new people from places that you have never been before. Also, people may talk on them to friends and it is always very fast to connect with each other because everybody is on the same platform. I have a few friends from around the world that I have met on vacations that I still talk to from time to time because of social networking. I can not text or call them because it would be horribly expensive.

I have found some bad things about social networking, (http://webupon.com/social-networks/the-good-and-bad-of-social-networking/

) and they were pretty shocking. Here is what I found. People can connect to your social networking accounts and find out lots of your personal infromation such as your phone number, address, ip address, or date of birth. With that information people can steal your identity, credit cards, bank accounts of even steal money from you. There have been many cases of suicide because of cyber bullying. People can harrass, bully, and stalk you through these sites. Another bad things are people being addicted to social networking. One in fifty people suffer from some kinds of addiction involving video games, social networking and the internet. Don't become one of them.

With all of these points I have to say that I like the social networking websites. All of the bad cases of bullying, suicides, and frauds involving social networks show that social networking sites are fallacious things.On the other hand they can save you money in phone calls, and texting. They also make it very easy for you to find out what your friends are doing. Seeing all of the cons that weigh down on the pros, why is social networking still aloud? Why do they require you to post your personal infromation to even make an account.

My opinion on all of this is that social networking is a good and bad thing but if you are always careful with the things you post and attach to your profile you will be safe.

Are sports drinks good or bad for you?

                                                                 Are sport drinks good or bad for you?

    Hi, I am rajan and I am going to talk to you about are sports drinks good or bad for you. Now it's so hard to walk down the drink isle and not see a type of sport drink there are so many different flavors lemon, grape, lime, and blue berry and they are just loaded with sugar and kids drink them all the time during sports and its bad for them and they want it for the sugar and the taste and that's it. After drinking these sports drinks these kids crash and they can't perform well at all because they have hit the wall and that is just 1 of the cons bout sports drinks.

Gatorade and PowerAde are the 2 most popular sports drinks out there and like in their name its suppose to help you like give you ion 4 witch for people who don't know it's a vitamin you lose after you work out and its suppose to help you replenish them witch it does but that all it does.  but with all the sugar and sodium it really doesn't help you it actually hurts you in a way of it doesn't let you perform at you highest level.

your probably wondering why do kids still drink this stuff it's because first it taste good and better than water. Second is these companies spend hundreds of millions of dollars to get pro athletes to advertise their product and have them drink it and it also says if you want to be like us that we have to drink this stuff. Which isn't true a lot of major athletes drink water.

 So are sports drinks good or bad for children NO! They are unhealthy and lead to child hood obesity and that is why kids of all ages shouldn't drink sports drinks. So remember you can be a pro without sports drinks

Social networking good or bad

Social networking has changed our society. But is it in a positive or negative way?  There are different reasons why social networks are good or bad.
     
Some positive reasons are that it is easier to get a hold of  friends/family.In times when they did have Facebook,Twitter the average person couldn't talk to their family from long distance because it would be to expensive.The only thing that people could do was sent letters but who wanted to do that!

Other reasons its beneficial to has social networking sites is that  there is an increased chance in making new friend/romantic relationships and there are only so many people in your community and there are 500 million uses of Facebook (in 2011)Im quite sure there is more of a chance of making a friend or finding a romantic relationship.
                               
Some negative things about social networks are one in 50 adults have a type of obsessive compulsive disorter and you could develop an unhealthy relationship to the computer,some people become addicted
to life on the computer!But did you know that it social networks could be life threatening?Reports of people taking there own lives because of gossip and/or online bulling.Social networking also makes work office less productive,The people who are on Facebook most are spending two hours a day at work just on Facebook which cost the company money..
         
There are a lot of positive reasons about social networking and there is a lot  negative reasons too.My opinion of Social Networking is that there aren't bad but they don't have an impact on my life.
