The cute little Cow

My persuasive essay topic: There should be a 5 minute delay before live TV is aired.

Why do you think there shouldnt be?

All I could think of was the super bowl, but are other sports shown live too? And what about award shows?

I really need help with the first paragraph of my persuasive essay. My teacher says that the audience shouldnt know exactly what I'm talking about until the last sentence of the first paragraph, meaning I shouldnt just state it in the first sentence. My topic is: There should be a 5 minute delay on live TV. (Giving them 5 minutes to make sure boobs arent showing and curse words are bleeped.)

Can anyone give me examples of good first paragraphs? I would like to give an example of a wardrobe malfunction (Janet Jacksons)

So I am doing a persuasive essay on why there should be a delay time on live TV. You know, so they don't show wardrobe malfuctions and can bleep out curse words. Can anyone think of any times things that shouldnt have been on live TV, were? I need some examples. So far I have the Janet Jackson one, Nicki Minaj , and the most recent olympics one.

So last year I got a hair brush stuck in my hair and had to cut it out. I have naturally curly hair so it looked really weird. I started straightening my hair. I only wash my hair once a week to try to keep the hot ironing at a minimum, but its still getting fried and my hair is growing really slowly. Is there any household items (lemon, baby powder, stuff like that, or maybe any store products that are cheap) that will help repair my hair and make it grow faster? I would like my hair to grow back to its normal length so I can start wearing it curly again, and stop frying it.

Also, anything that will help make my hair soft and smooth?

So I am a female freshman and this is my first year with real P.E. I actually have to wear gym clothes this time and I have to admit, I'm terrified. I'm quite a bit over weight and have stretch marks down to my knees. I plan on wearing a tank top under my shirt to cover up my bra, but I'm not sure what to do about the stretch marks on my legs, and how to hide them. I havent gotten my gym shirt yet, but if its long enough I plan to change into it first and try to cover up as I slip on my gym shorts.

There isnt any privacy curtains and I'm not sure if there is bathrooms in there, if so, I'll try to get into a stall.

So, does anyone have any ideas of how I can cover up my stretch marks? (and if it matters, gym is my last period)

So today was my first day of high school. A few weeks ago I was really scared about it, but I kind of got over it by the time school came. But today two incidents really bothered me. The first one was my science teachers glasses, they were sitting really low on her nose. It bothered me so much I had to stop looking at her, I even felt weird. Then in gym me and my class were sitting on the ground. The coach kept pacing back in forth, it bothered me so much I had to stare at the ground until he stopped, and I felt funny like I had in science.

I dont know what keeps happening, is it just anxiety? I don't remember any specifics, but this has happened to me before.

I have come to realize that I'm not a hoarder, I'm a lazy slob. However so much stuff is usually piled up in my room that you'd think I was a hoarder, I just don't care about the stuff. I'm still young, living with my parents, and I think this all started because I was never one of those kids with the parents that said "You have to clean your room first!" and I had no chores. Therefor me and my older brother are both lazy slobs. Currently, my room is the cleanest its been in a few years, you can actually see the floor.

So yesterday my dad told me he was getting me a printer, and it was going in my room. I'm one of those people that don't just clean one spot, I clean the whole room. So that is why my room is clean, not because I decided I was living the wrong life style and needed to clean up, because I didn't want to get in trouble. But now that its clean, I guess it wouldn't hurt to keep it clean. So, how do I change my attitude towards having a clean room, and any tips on how to keep my room clean?

I don't want to be a lazy slob anymore.

So today I went to a fair and got some bad chafing on my inner thighs. It really hurts. I have stretch marks and they seemed to get the worst of it. There is like dotted lines that look like mini scabs over my stretch marks. And one part of my skin in just rubbed raw, which I'm planning to put a bandage on so it doesn't get infected. However, I still have somewhere to go tomorrow. And all I have to wear are jeans. Would wearing leggings (actually I think they might be like biker shorts or something) under my jeans reduce pain and prevent further chafing? Any thing I could put on the chafing to reduce the pain? I mean like house hold items, I don't have the time to go to the store, I also don't have any powder.

Scared is a bit of an understatement, I'm absoulutely terrified. I wasnt even this scared when I started to going this same school in seventh grade! (Its a middle school and highschool). A lot of my friends are leaving, except for two. :( One of my friends is actually marked as the "weird one", but she is really nice. And the other one misses school most of the time anyways! But making friends isnt really my problem, I'm scared of the teachers. But not of the teachers, of what they will do. I'm am a smart kid, I have strait A's. I can do things when people leave me alone, to think, like homework. But I cant just solve problems on the spot, what if the teacher asks me the answer to the problem, I wont be able to figure it out and everyone will laugh. I dont want to be laughed at :(

Am I worrying for nothing?

So I just got a new Betta fish. This is my first fish and it is currently in a 1 gallon bowl. I know that is small, but its better than the poor fish dying in a cup on a walmart shelf. I was wondering if a 5 gallon tank would be an okay size. I'm not sure if I have enough room for a 10 gallon one. And would a 5 gallon tank need a filter?

Also this is the supplies I currently have for my fish:

- Fish flakes

- Betta bites (because I read that they liked those better)

- A net to take it out when I clean the bowl

- A small container to put it in when I clean the bowl

Is there anything else I need to take care of my fish? And just in case your wondering it is a Male Crowntail Betta fish named Abe.

So yesterday I went berry picking with a few friends. I am only 14 years old, and overweight. (Not exactly obese yet though) So we had been walking down one side of the hill picking berries when we decided to go back up to pick some other berries. When we were walking up the hill I started to feel a little dizzy and had a headache. By the time we stopped my vision had turned completely black and white and was blurry. My hearing was fuzzy, kind of like when your in the mountains and your ears pop, but worse. I had a horrible headache and I was really dizzy. I had to sit down for several minutes before I felt well enough to stand back up to walk to the car.

What happened? My guess was dehydration maybe. Although I did try some berries, could that have been the cause?

1. In what times period were pirates the most "popular"?

2. Poor people in that time period, how would they dress?

3. Where would they hang out?

and can you give me like a list of who would be most powerful on a pirate ship, second most powerful, third and so on.

So I just started playing Saxophone, like yesterday. When I play play from B to E, it sounds fine. But when I play D ( the one with six fingers down) it sounds really high. I think its my embouchure but I don't know how to fix it. Help?

So I am trying to give my characters a little personality, I suck at this however. So I was wondering how would you show your character like this?

Kind/Caring

Arrogant/Funny ( like a character that acts arrogant but seems funny to those reading. He wouldnt be arrogant to the point that you dont like him though.)

Ok now some feelings

Fear

Pain ( both emotional and physical)

So I just asking how you would make a character seem like one of these, and example paragraph would be helpful. You dont have to do them all

So, I have been playing clarinet in my jr. high band for one year and I would like to have a clarinet to practice on this summer. Most of the notes I play are pretty high because all I have is first clarinet music. I think that I count as intermediate now, and I would like to know if this would be a good clarinet to use this summer.

Some of the reviews say that the mouth piece was wiggly, would that affect my playing? This year when I was playing in band two of the corks completely fell off and we just used tape to replace the cork, would that work if it got to bad? If this isn't a good clarinet then does anyone have any other suggestions?

Okay so Terra is the main character and Gia is the earth goddess. Please any tips on how to make it better.

Daniel.” said Gia, sighing at the unknown man, “Terra, have you ever been in love?”

“No. Not really.” I admitted, slightly embarrassed

“Good,” she said, “your young, you have your whole life to find the one. I, however, have already lived a million mens lives. I've been a doctor and a teacher, a scientist and a salesmen. I've been the richest person alive and I've lived on the streets. Much of my life is forgotten. The jobs, the places, the times, but I have never forgotten the people. Some may call it a burden, but I call it a gift.”

I nodded in agreement. “But what about the person you mentioned earlier?” I paused, searching my memory for his name “Daniel,” I said, “who is Daniel?”

She sighed and reached into the pocket of her dirty jeans, pulling out a picture of a young man. “This is Daniel.” I looked at the man in the photo. He was a tall slender man with a jumble of curls on his head. The picture was taken as he was pushing his large glasses further up on his nose. “I have loved many people, immortal and not, but never as much as this man right here.” She said, pointing to the picture.

“Is he still alive?” I asked gently

She folded up the picture, returning it to the safely of her pocket. “He is immortal, much like me. Though one day the memories of his life will fill his brain to is capacity and he will go mad, but I can't bare to talk about that right now. So to answer your question, yes he is alive.”

I nodded as we slowed to a stop in front of a small, deep river. I shielded my eyes from the light reflecting off the water. Slowly my eyes adjusted to the bright morning light. Something in the water caught my attention and I looked down to see large, dragon like fish swimming among other animals that looked like something out of a horror movie. A dragon fish swam up to the edge of the water where I stood. Scanning it, I realized it had light purple eyes and multicolored scales. Suddenly it jumped out of the water and scurried between my legs, running behind me. I turned around and saw it digging a hole and burring the remains of some other creature and shivered.
