"Gettysburg Address"

Nick and Katie

Eleven score and seventeen years ago, our forefathers were bullied by the British Empire. Did we stand for this abuse? No, we fought back. We asserted our rights. We asserted that all men are created equal, and that they all should have the liberty to do as they want without the persecution of others.

Now, antibullying campaigns dominate our schools with assemblies called throughout the school year to bring awareness to this issue.  Posters hang on the walls with announcements about antibullying messages trying to raise awareness about this very important issue.

And yet, in spite of this, bullying continues to be out of control in our schools. Teen suicide, many due to bullying, is the third highest cause of death among teenagers. This has to end.

            Much of the groundwork to solve this problem has already been laid down, so that we may walk down that path and finally put an end to this problem that has plagued us for so long. We just have to take the appropriate measures, which no one seems willing to take. And thus, we undue the earlier work that has been done. We are ruining the dream of those who came before us.

1) I never thought of it that way, but it is a completely reasonable way of thinking about it. It doesn't change my opinion, I still view it as a symbol of racism and that it shouldn't be flied.
2) I do feel that his opinion is correct.
3) Because people still fly the flag. Because of this, people complain about it.

Essay or something.

     Physical education should be a mandatory part of the school day. Just take a look at these statistics. The obesity rate of children ages six to eleven is up to nearly eighteen percent. This is unacceptable and must be dealt with. However, some children may not be able to engage in physical education, due to physical disabilities. This would be a rare case though.
     There are several reasons why I believe that children should be forced to do physical education. First, as stated in the opening paragraph, children ages six to eleven have an eighteen percent obesity rate. These children have an increased risk of many things, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, osteoarthritis, and sleep apnea.
      Once you get the habit of exercising ingrained into their heads, they will want to exercise. This is true of many things, including exercise. Just think of something that you've been doing your whole life. Would you have trouble breaking that habit? I think you would.
     In conclusion, I think that every student should have to take physical education everyday. This would help with many things. Students would have higher self esteem and be less prone to bullying. They would also lead happier, healthier lives. They would be less at risk for several kinds of diseases later in their life. This wouldn't only benefit themselves, but they could live longer and possibly see their grandchilden. Physical Education should be an important part of a student's day and should be taken everyday.

1. They aren't being forced to pay for anything. It is a willing choice that they have to make.
2. I would most like to see the Grand Canyon. From the pictures I have seen, it is a very beautiful place to be.

Belldinger 10/10
1. People really really don't like our legislative branch.
2. Because this is probably related to the government shutdown, I would rectify that situation.

BELLDINGER 10/9/13
1) I disagree with the changes. The team has had the name for the past forty years. Why should they have to change it now? There is no precedent for a changing the name.

Eagle eye questions
1) It is much easier to predict crimes and make decisions because it gives you a probability of success rather than human guesswork.
2) The advanced computer used them as if they were pieces in a game. It lost the game.
3) It wouldn't matter whether we had it or not. The main complaint would be that it was always watching, but hey the NSA already does that.
4) I use it to complete homework that I do not know how to complete. Google FTW.
5) It wishes to porvey that technology is not always a good thing, and that you shouldn't rely on technology.

1. It can lure more customers into their stores so that their sales can be higher.
2. This is about 3/4 of your daily caloric intake. This could lead to a higher obesity rate.
3. If this is successful, then other companies could and would follow this trend.

1. I believe that they do, otherwise some rulers of the world would go unchecked.
2. They should enforce the rights of the people no matter the costs.
3. There is not a lot of protection for this that the average person has available to them in their homes.

Belldinger 9/5/13
1) I do not believe that they should raise their prices on the dollar menu. It is titled "Dollar Menu" for a reason after all.
2) I don't believe that they should. If they were paid a living wage, many people would just depend on that job and not try to get a better education and a better job.

Belldinger 9/4/13
1) A person should Try to find a job in the technology, engenering, or math.

1. I do not believe this is an invasion of privacy. You put your information on the internet and signed their terms of service.
2. I have not read the terms and conditions, so I would not know if this breaches their terms.
3. I do not believe it does, because you have probably agreed to this in the terms and conditions.

Bellringer 8/29/13:
Dr. King was a very powerful speaker. Just listening to him is an amazing experience. It is not hard to believe that he was the beginnings of a very successful movement to give African Americans their freedom.

Bellringer 8/27 :
1. Yes, they should because they willingly beat down an 88 year old man.
2. Since this was a deadly crime, their names should be disclosed.
3.To keep society from doing these things there should be sever punishments.
