final draft. junk food

Junk food which is known as unhealthy food lacks nutrients (Smith 2005).According to The Food Show 2005, the junk food is loaded with chemical addictives. Cook High school has slowly changed their type of food sold to a healthier food since 2001. However, their profits have dropped significantly as in 2003 their profit drops to less than $10000 compare to 2001 which they obtain more than $10000 ( school news 2005). Junk Food may give the school lots of profit but there’s more harm especially on the development and growth of the children and it also causes many problems (The Food Show 2005). I strongly agree that junk food should be ban in the school canteen.

One of the problems of the children consuming junk food is that it affects the children health which can lead to obesity (Tran 2005). Eating junk food will increase the kilo joule intake which leads to weight gain. Merely 50% of the children in Australia are consuming more than the recommended intake of sugar and fat (Australian Nutrition 2004). This is due to the eating habit. During the last three decade, the school children brought their lunch from home which is usually a piece of fruit or sandwich. However today, more than half of the students bought their lunch from the school canteen where chocolate, snack bars, ice cream and canned drinks are ready available. They can eat whatever they want. The dental health of the primary children have decrease which cause by the consumption of junk food (Tran 2005).

Other than that, junk food contains chemical addictives to enhance the taste and colour of the food. According to the Food Show 2005, consuming junk food can also affect the children behaviour. The children behaviour can be improve if they reduce their junk food intake. The teachers have noticed tremendous improvement of discipline after the children lunch break when they don’t eat junk food (Food Show 2005). More over excessive Junk Food can cause hyperactivity and lack of focus in class (smith 2005). Therefore, the ban of selling junk food at the school canteen can improve the students’ health and character (Food Show 2005).

Besides that, selling junk food at school causes massive litter problems. Cans, crisp packets, cartons and plastic containers are scattered everywhere in the school compound (The Food Show 2005). Junk Food is the major contributor of litter at school. By stopping the selling of junk food at school, it will reduce the problem (smith 2005). If the litter problems can be solved, the school can focus more on the maintenance projects that will benefit more on the schools (Food Show 2005).

Having Junk Food in schools has more harm. At school, they can be taught about the effects on junk food and the benefits of eating healthy food (Tran 2005). Thus, their eating habits can be changed (Food Show 2005). Therefore, I strongly believe that selling of junk food should be banned at schools.

The era of procrastinations of half measures, of soothing and baffling expedients of delays is coming to its close. In its place we are entering a PERIOD OF CONSEQUENCES. (Sir Winsron Churchill) Global warming refers to the continuous rising of Earth’s the temperature due to greenhouse effect. Initially, the greenhouse gases maintain the Earth’s temperature at 33^oC that sustain the great biodiversity of life in Earth. However, industrial revolution in 18th and 19th centuries boosts up the demand for energy which mainly obtained from combustion of fossil fuel. (Woodford 2006) Concentrations of carbon dioxide have increased drastically for the past few years. Now, it has been more than 300ppm which is far off compared from decades ago and it keeps increasing. Usually concentration of CO₂ was only about 250ppm. This change helps the temperature to increase up to 0.6 ^oC-0.9 ^oC. (Riebeek 2007) Apparently, with the rising of temperature, it has changed the geography of the world. At the Colombia national glacier park, the glacier retreats year by year and there’s more avalanche which make things worst. 75 years ago in Patagonia, the tip of South America, there was a vast of ice on top of it. But now, it’s already gone. This isn’t a coincidence but it happens everywhere in the world. The climate change is caused by global warming and prompt action should be taken before its too late.

For the record, the ten hottest years was recorded in the last 14 years. The hottest year was on 2005, these high temperatures send enormous heat waves which can cause death. In 2003 heat wave, it has killed more than 35000 people across Europe. In the same year, India’s temperature also reached 50^oC which is also hit new record. West America also faced the same situation as there was more number of consecutive days with more than 1000^oC. (Gore, 2007) An overall, all cities faces the same thing. (Nzone Tonight 2008) The increasing of temperature also affected the oceans’ temperature. Hurricanes, typhoon and tornados, all of them set new records in the early of 21^st century. Things can’t be taken for granted as the scientists have once said that there will be no hurricane in the southern America but in 2005, it hits Brazil. The worst ever hurricane was Katrina. This has been explained scientifically. As oceans temperature increased, the velocity of wind will increase. The moisture content will also increase and it gained greater energy when it hits the land. (Gore, 2007)

With the climate changes, the rain pattern also changes and causes more storms. Besides, it also relocates the precipitation. In 2005, in just 24 hours, the rain in Mumbai falls about 37 inches and the water level reached seven feet. China also was hit by heavy rains.(Gore, 2007) According to some prediction, the climate change could make about 200 million of people become homeless in 2100 because of flooding and other phenomenon likes hurricanes (NASA,2009).However there are also places that faced draught. Darfur and Niger were among those places that faces the worst situation of draught. Due to high temperature, soil evaporation makes the draught even worse. Lake Chad which is near Sahara desert became dried after a few decades as the lake being evaporated. (Gore, 2007) In addition, drastic changes in weathers have also put animals and plants in danger as they are unable to adjust themselves accordingly to the weather in a short period. For example, parts of coral reefs died due to the warming of the ocean (Woodford 2006)

Without any actions taken by now, things can get worsen. We are capable of getting used to the evolution of climate as it changes slowly. (Nzone Tonight 2008) Some of us might not realise it. However sooner or later, it will be too late for us to take actions. To avoid such catastrophic, we as the residence of the world should overcome the damage that we’ve done. Some practical ways are choosing energy-saving fluorescent lamps in home, switch to utility company which generate energy from renewable source and bicycle or walk instead of driving in daily life. (Chris Woodford 2006) If everyone is doing the simple things such as recycling unusable product and plant more trees it will gives greater impact. Besides, using appliances that are electrical efficient can help to arrest the effect on global warming. (Nzone Tonight 2008) What gets us into trouble is not what we don't know; it's what we know for sure that just ain't so. (Mark Twain) Instead of believing we aren’t the cause of global warming, well think again.

'Predatory' lesbian teacher banned from school in Queensland

A HIGH-profile Queensland sportswoman has been banned from teaching after having a lesbian affair with one of her students.

The former teacher, who has collected many sports accolades and played at a national level, developed the "sexual relationship'' while working as a PE teacher at a Brisbane high school in 2007.

She already had a history of dating her students, after being investigated over a similar case at a Brisbane Catholic school five years earlier, also involving a Year 12 student.

Queensland College of Teachers (QCT) documents obtained by The Courier-Mail under Right to Information show she took at least one of her under-aged students to gay nightclubs using fake ID and gave gifts and fluffy toys - identified as a "classic signpost of grooming behaviour", along with provocative photos of herself taken in her bedroom.

She also asked whether the student would kiss her and do more than kiss her.The latest relationship involved an email, where the teacher asked the student: "Do you think I'm hot?".

The disciplinary committee, which conducted the investigation, said it would be concerned if the offending teacher was placed in a position of trust with students again, "particularly young girls".

"There is definitely a pattern of behaviour," the report said.

"The QCT suggests that (the teacher) has approached her teaching positions as someone who is a predator towards young girls."

The committee said the fact the students were "willing participants" did not "diminish the seriousness of the teacher's misconduct".

The maximum penalty for the case was applied, which provided for the cancellation of her registration for five years. She can re-apply again in 2014.

The Courier-Mail has not named the former teacher. The newspaper has repeatedly tried to contact her, but she remains unavailable for comment.

A principal from the school where the sportswoman was first found to have had an inappropriate relationship said they only became aware of allegations after the student had left.

"Our legal advice informs us that the college fully complied with statutory obligations in dealing with this matter," the now principal said.

Education Minister Geoff Wilson refused to be interviewed and Education Queensland said in a statement that the checking system had improved since this incident occurred.

The sportswoman is one of three female teachers who had their registrations cancelled in the past year after having inappropriate sexual dealings with female students.

The other two teachers are also prohibited from re-applying to teach for five years.

summary .

this case happened at Queensland. A teacher who is popularly known with her achievement of playing at the national level in have been caught having lesbian affair with the students. After being investigated, the teacher already had history of dating her students for the last five years. the teacher was banned from teaching as their registration have been cancelled. however, after an appeal the teacher can re-apply teaching in five years. the sportswoman is one of the few teachers who had their registration cancel in the past few year because of having special relationship with the student.

Critique.

well, we really cant expect anything from a person. Even though the person have a very high credibility we cannot be so sure. Human aren't perfect.

What are the potential effects of global warming in terms of climate change and how can they be arrested?

Concentrations of carbon dioxide have increased drastically for the past few years. Now, it has been more than 300ppm which is far off compared to from decades ago and it keeps increasing. Usually concentration of CO₂ was only about 250ppm but now it has changed. This changed have help the temperature to increase up to 0.9 ^oC. With the rising of temperature, it has changed the geography of the world. We can see with our naked eyes, Italian alps, Switzerland alps, Argentina alps, all of these alps have changed. There’s no more snow mount there. At the Colombia national glacier park, the glacier retreats year by year and there’s more avalanche which make things worst. 75 years ago in Patagonia, the tip of South America, there was a vast of ice on top of it. But now, it’s already gone. This isn’t a coincidence but it happens everywhere in the world. Within a decade, there will be no snow mount in Mount Kilimanjaro.

For the record, the ten hottest years was recorded in the last 14 years. The hottest year was on 2005, these high temperatures send enormous heat waves which can cause death. In 2003 heat wave, it has killed more than 35000 people across Europe. In the same year, India’s temperature also reached 50^oC which is also hit new record. West America also faced the same situation as there were more number of consecutive days with more than 1000^oC. An overall, all major city faces the same thing. The increasing of temperature also affected the ocean. As the temperature of the ocean increased beyond the natural range, stronger storms likely to occur. Hurricanes, typhoon and tornados, all of them set new records in the early 2000. Things can’t be taken for granted as the scientists have once said that there will be no hurricane in the southern America but in 2005, it hits Brazil. The worst ever hurricane was Katrina. This has been explained scientifically. The oceans temperature increased, the velocity of wind will increase. The moisture content will also increase and it gained greater energy when it hits the land.

With the climate changes, the rain pattern also changes and causes more storms. Besides, it also relocates the precipitation. In 2005, in just 24 hours, the rain in Mumbai falls about 37inches and the water level reached seven feet. China also was hit by heavy rains. However there is also places that faced draught. Dafur and Niger were among those places that faces the worst situation of draught. These places are also known as Sahara desert. Due to the high temperature, soil evaporation exaggeratedly and makes the draught even worse. Lake Chad which is near sahara desert became dried after a few decades as the lake being evaporated.No living things can survive in this place and this has consequence all over the world.

without any actions taken by now, things can get worsen. We are capable of getting used to the evolution of climate as it changes slowly. Some of us might not realise it. Sooner or later, it will be too late for us to take actions. To avoid such catastrophic, we as the residence of the world should overcome the damage that we’ve done. By doing simple things such as recycling unusable product, switching to a renewable source of energy and plant more trees. If everyone does this, it will gives greater impact. If possible, we should buy hybrid cars as it is environmental friendly and sell cars at higher mileage. Besides, using appliances that are electrical efficient can help to arrest the effect on global warming.

Storms . :s

By Steve Lillebuen From: The Sunday Telegraph March 07, 2010

MELBOURNE airport was closed, cinemas evacuated, trees and power lines brought down and footy and horse racing cancelled as hail up to 10cm in diameter fell over the city like snow yesterday.

In one of the most severe storms to hit the southern capital, 19mm of rain fell in just 18 minutes, causing havoc as streets were flooded and trains, planes and cars brought to a standstill.

Tullamarine Airport, where gusts of 100km/h were recorded, was closed and the deluge stopped trains and forced the evacuation of Southern Cross Station and a popular cinema complex in South Yarra.

"It was a very dangerous thunderstorm," senior weather bureau forecaster Richard Carlyon said. "We don't often see storm cells like that."

The storm forced the cancellation of the NAB Cup footy game between Brisbane and Geelong.

At Flemington, racegoer John Bell said: "Marble-sized hail stones came down for about 10 minutes. The track was covered in hail. It was all white. It looked like it had snowed."

Meanwhile the southwest Queensland town of St George is preparing for a flood peak that is expected to inundate 80 per cent of the town tomorrow.

The news is better for Sydney, with a few showers expected over the next few days and a forecast maximum of 27 today.

Summary

Melbourne was hit by heavy storms yesterday. In just 18 minutes, the rain falls about 19mm. Everything was shut down. A marble-sized rain falls came down about 10 minutes. The storm is expected to be continued tomorrow. Most places except sydney will be expecting rains.

Critique

Weather can't be predicted, things can get so fast and nothing we can stop it. We can plan things, but bad weather can spoil it. Just like in this article, everything was just cancelled. Football games being postponed, trains service and the airport are all closed.
