Everybody in the food industry can help with improving our nutrition.

Food manufacturers can do there part in helping improve our nutrition by making sure our fruit and vegetables are grown properly and are fresh when they are packaged correctly.

Food distributers can help by regularly supplying shops around the country with fresh fruit and vegetables. They can also do there part by insuring that the food is not damaged of bruised during transportation.

Food retailers can make sure the shop clean and hygienic which will lead to the public entering the store. They can also make sure that the price for the food is reasonable (not to high because the product won’t sell, but not to low that the shops can not afford to pay the food manufacturers).

Food advertisers can make sure the fruit and vegetables are clearly displayed and are not tucked in a corner of the store.

This can lead to the public buying the healthy food products and put an end to the lack of healthy products in our stores.

=Short story (Term1&3).=

= Blowing up the world? =

If you look back to the years of world war one then look at the weapons we have today, we have the power to destruct the world and end the human race. I think that these 'A' bombs aren't needed, but then when it finally comes to world war three these deadly weapons can be used both positively and negatively for us. I believe that these deadly weapons should not be constructed unless America, Germany and there companions want to end the human race. There is now no way back with the technology humans have created, they don't know that they could well have ended the world. There is no way we can stop world wars but we can put a stop to the production of these weapons of mass destruction. You have used excellent topic based vocabulary Karl, well done.

'A' bombs are a weapon of mass destruction, these weapons are a threat to the world and have enough power to blow the world up at least 10 times over. everybody thinks negatively of these weapons but in a way these weapons do have a few positives, such as lowering the mass population of humans on earth.

'A' bombs work in a weird way, they're fired from the ground or dropped by a plane. The 'A' bombs work in a way were they have a timer and destruct just before they hit the ground, thats what creates the shock waves. Then they hit the ground and a huge mushroom cloud appears which is followed by more shock waves which is why these bombs create such devastation. Great description, this paragraph could have been explained earlier.

I think we should come to an agreement that we will not produce these weapons of mass destruction, but there is no way to end world wars. A war without these bombs will help the world by reducing the population limit and without these major weapons there won't be any major damage done the earth.

So now you can see why these bombs are being produced and why I think they shouldn't be produced any more. The 'A' bombs are deadly unsafe weapons, that should not be produced and handled by the presidents and prime ministers of countries such as America and Germany. Therefore I strongly disagree with the production of these 'A' bombs, which could well end the human race and could even blow the world 10 times over.

Overall, you have done an outstanding job in your written explanation. The language includes descriptive adjectives and your paragraphs include a variety of relevant and informative information. Well done! = = =Hook 'n' day- 30/7/2010= We were meant to bring a spare change of clothes for our hook 'n' day, we were told we might get a little wet and dirty. On the day we started with the beep test and I came fifth at 7.5. Then we ran around half the turf for 10 minutes and I came 3 with 25 laps. Then after lunch we were put in our groups and started competing in a number of activities. The first activity was stretcher bearing were four of the group and to be nominated to carry there whole team from one end of the field to the other, I was one of the stretcher bearers and our team came second. The next activity was transferring water and we were given two plastic cups to get water from a bucket in front of us and transfer it to another bucket behind us, in this activity we came fourth. The next activity was pushing tires, we came first. The next activity was carrying hay bails and in that we also came first. Next we had wheelbarrow races and we came third. Then we did rugby kicking and we came second. The next activity was crawling under a cargo net and sadly we lost that but sliding through the puddle was good fun. The final activity w

=Fat is not healthy, Fit is healthy=

Although not everybody would agree, but I want to say that being healthy means no fatty foods every day such as Maca's and BK is fatty and its not just because your waste line will expand but fatty foods stuff up your immune system as well.

I have several reasons for arguing this point of view my first reason is: Being fat can affect your blood pressure but I suppose that doesn't worry you, but what happens when you get a high blood pressure, thats right a heart attack and what happens when you get a heart attack, depending on how bad it is it could be a couple of days in hospital or death.

A further reason is: The worlds had to change because of fat people such as bigger door frames in new houses, and bigger coffins which take up more room in our world. You might find this funny but have you looked at the prices lately, you could buy five apples, a ham sandwich and a glass of water for the price of a big mac combo at Macdonalds.

Furthermore: Do you play sports? You know that sports can be physically tough on your body. Well can you imagine a compulsory sports day at school, being so fat that you can't even run, how embarrassing. Sports can keep you fit and healthy so to keep your body well you should play at least one sport activity a week.

Therefore though some people may argue that food like Macdonalds is yum and that makes it good, its not good to have to often because its fatty and greasy and it stuffs up your body.

I think that I have shown my point, eat healthy be fit, eat not healthy your body is not going to be healthy.

** Pike River Coal Mine **
Through the hole and into the tunnel. Its a normal working day for me..but today... The ground shakes and the wind blows, Our senses are frayed as the dreadful smell reaches our nostrils and the dirty oxogen. races down our lungs and into our body, My lungs search desperately for fresh breathable air as my fingers shakily tried to fit my mask on as I find my way through the shaft. We are stuck down here to the day of our rescue... if it comes at all.
