shark finning

Sharks have long been feared, and thought of as the ocean's fierce, indiscriminate killing machines. But sharks face threats themselves, including overfishing, and one of the most controversial fishing issues -shark finning.

Every year tens of millions of sharks die a slow death because of finning. Finning is the inhuman practice of hacking off sharks fins and throwing its still alive body back into the sea. The shark ether gets eatin alive by another fish or the shark just starves to death and/ or the shark will just drown ( if the shark doesn't have a constant movment then it cannot extract oxygen from the water). Shark fins are being "harvested" in ever greater numbers to feed the growing demand for shark fin soup, an asian "delicacy".

Not only finning sharks is barbaric... but their indiscriminate slaughter at an unsustainable rate is pushing many species to the brink of extinction. Since the 1970s the populations of several species have been decimated by over 95%. Due to the clandestine nature of finning, records are rarely kept of the numbers of sharks and species caught. Estimates are based on declaired imports to shark fin markets suck as hong kong and china.

Up to 100,000,000 sharks are killed each year. What do you think we should do about this?

Sharks have lived longer than when man walked this earth i think that they have every right to be on this planet more than us considering their not the ones who are killing this world for no resons at all. They just have to eat other fish to live its just how it goes for them but not us we just kill them for money and food. All because of the chines people and the hong kong people.... just because its a trodition it doesn't mean that you can just kill them to keep their trodition up and running for the heck of it.

I never tried it but ive seen pictures of shark finn soup and it really looks disgusting and not very apitizing so i would sugest not to eat it anyway. I do see why they kill sharks but i dont see what they have ever done to us well they have killed a few people but thats just because its what they do they need to eat to stay alive. Im shure those movies out their like jaws do scare people but thats not what sharks do they dont kill random people because they feel like it their actually really nice animals.... like you can swim right up to it and pet it and it wont even do anything about it because they like it. So yeh if you want to help stop shark finning just start a campain or something and do your worst against those people who are doing it.

New sk8 park??

The person you would most want to notice your complains is the mayer Mayor Doug Findlater I would want to destroy the skate park in west bank and make a new one for all the kids who sk8 besides... it would make crime rates go down besause more people would have something to do everyday instead of just cousing trouble.

The thing i would do to change the skate park is that you could build a big bull on the side a bit and you could build more sets of steps with rails on them. Their also should be a half pipe for people who like to ride vert and/or want to learn how to ride vert like my self.

The rules at skate parks should be like no graffiting because im shure that everybody would want a clean sk8 park just for safty ishues like if theirs a rock and it sorta blends in with the spray paint then your just going to bail hard core but on your face just to make things worse for the person it happens to. Thier also can be like glass you might fall on so i guess no smashing glass bottles in the skate park obviosly... Besides i dont think people are that mean.

One other thing people would love is the location i think the they should move it or leave it their and just extend to it because theirs like one acres of feilds just sitting their doing nothing all around that one little area. But no one ever thinks of what they should do to that giant area of plain field that no one even walks on. So thats what i think of what the mayor should do to the sk8 park and the places around it.

Captain troy!

It all started in space with a bunch of alians wondering what it would be like tobe pirates. They landed some place on earth. they just thot it now but they might need camoflge for the ship they build in space so no one would notice them in the water. It would be kind of weird for a ship to be on the water with a bunch of alians waking around on the deck.





The alians start to read a book on how to bea pirat and how to steel from people for no reason what so ever. After they read the book they send a alian on to the island thats al around them. The alians have found a way for them selfs to transe form them selfs into people so no one would be all like AHHHH! WHAT IS THAT THING CALL THE COPS!. KILL IT!


That would just blow their whole plan over. In the book it says that you will know that your a pirates when you do something really stupid....like kid napping a poor little soul who cant protect himself from a full grown man because hes stuffing his face with candy..Well in this case a full grown alian dressed up in a pirates suit.





A few hours later the alian detects something on this cross walk type place.


'Hey you over their want a puppy or i mean candy do you like candy i think you do because your a child so you have to like candy?


'Okay' says the child exitingly.


As the child runs tward the trees the alian walks slowly tawords the fence that cuts you off from the water.


'Here you go now you injoi that candy while it lasts' says alian


The alian grabs the kids arm and swings his lantern three times so the other alians knows its him and he has a child with him. The ship fades into view so they can see it clearly. The child has no idea what is going on when hes stuffing his face with candy. As the alian ship gets to the shore they board the ship and kidnap the child who sttill has no idea whats going on yet because hes not finished the candy.



As they flu back to their home planet they had a party to congradulat that they are real pirats and that they did something bad for the first time of their life on that planet. When they got home they tryed to grab the kid but then realized that the kid couldn't breath in space so the alians throu him into space and hoped they wouldn't go to the slammer A.K.A prison. So they decided to go hid out in their new hidout.... their mom's house.

story top ten words??

It all started with a guy who calls himself hipopoponomus. He was a very greety guy who always gat what they wanted because his birthday was on the same day as christmas morning. His dad rhymnosorus is a lawyer so he gets payed a crap load of money. Hipopoponomus always got bubbles and he always gets air heads.... dont really know why he just loves to nibble air heads for some odd reason.

One year his dad Rhymnosorus asked him what he wanted to get this year for like a big present. He said that he wanted two hundred dollers worth of five cent candys his dads eyes raised in suprismet and he said nnno!
'But why not!! said hipopoponomus
'besause its 2 hundred doler on 5 cent candys thats way to musch candy your going to get sick real bad for the rest of the year if you get that much candy.

A new day at a new school:(

As i wake up around 5 o clock i am scared of whats going to hapen today at my new school. Will i get bullied? Will i not fit in? Will i not make any friends. As i think of whats going to happen i started to think if i was going to be one of those losers who sit in the corner all day everyday. I went back to sleep and had a dream about school, everybody is around me laffing because i dont know anybody but then i realized that im bigger than them and i started to bully them. It was an odd dream but it was fun while it lasted. As my alarm went of i jumped out of bed and smacked the alarm clock as i was getting ready my mom was making me french toast and lots of it.



I asked her if she wanted to come with me to find out which classes im in but she had to go help my younger brother and sister to find their classes. I started to wonder if she made me french toast to not get mad at her for when she said that o well it worked all right. I packed my bag but then realized that i dont really need a bag on the first day of school because i dont think theirs a teacher in the world who would make us do work on the first day and if they did i would just not go to that class anymore evr again in my life unless theirs a sub.



As i walked out of the door i started to shake and i was getting nervess i walked up to the school and saw a bunch of kids that were also new to the school so i stopped shaking and asked them if they wanted help or to help me find our classes and he nodded his head up and down. As we found the paper thing where our names were listed we found out that we are in the same class. I felt kinda alkward going in to the class because i still didn't know a lot of people in the class.



As the bell rang the teacher told us to sit down and make your selfs at home. He started to talk to us about what his class rules are 1 is to at least look at the teacher wle he is talking but you can choose not to listen, its just to make him feel good about him self. rule #2 is that we can listen to i pods in class whenever he is not talking to the class and if your plaing games on it if you can then you will have to get it taken away from you for ten minutes. #3 is that their should be no fighting in class unless its a really good reason for it to happen. And yeh those are the main rules and the rest what ever you think is bad then you shouldn't do it.



And then he started to ramble on about when he was a child and he knows what it feels like for the first day at school. As he talked about what happend to him i started to not be scared and i felt like i wanted to be my self rather than being shy and scared all the time.



By the end of the day i have made at least 11 friends each person from different classes. I dont remember their names but itll catch on throu out the year. After that day i wasn't scared of new schools if i be my self and not some other kid that is like the tottal opiset than me so yeh thats my story of what happend to me.



<--- This is me on the first day of school.

Loudly i played my guitar in my room as my friend was playing the drumd and the bass we made a song that my mom didn't like what so ever she says its just noise but we think that its a work in progress and its going to end beutifful.
