Stop the Sadist !


Since the human race turned up on the earth , they have had an advantage over all creation.
Despite the fact that we have a mind, we also have the choice to decide , whether to be angels or devils .
Unfortunately, some of us choose to be evil people , they might not know who they are , because they do not use their mind to think about what are they doing .

I want to talk about just one evil side in my essay Blood Sports (Animals) because some people do this for entertainment.
In this essay I will highlight some of these sports, I will not give a verdict , I would like you to give your verdict .

1- Bull Fighting :

This kind of sport is popular , especially in Spain and the former Spanish colonies .
They put the animal inside a cage for a night without food , it is not enough for them , they torture the animal by burning its horns until the fire goes out single-handedly .

In the morning, the animal find itself inside a circuit called Bullring , with a lot of people watching and shouting at the border of bullring , Bullfighters inside the bullring use their lances and swords to torture the animal and wear it out .

Afterwards , they kill it .



2- Fox Hunting :

Foxes in some countries are considered dangerous and harmful , but in other counties they are friendly , however in all countries , there are some people who kill the foxes just for entertainment .
More than 10 dogs chase a poor fox , furthermore 2 men or more on their horses with their guns wait for the appropriate opportunity to murder the animal .

3- Cock Fighting :

This kind of bloody sport started in Africa when the white people invaded that continent , unfortunately it is still popular in some African countries .
Two cocks fight each other until one of them dies or has a serious injury like losing one of its eyes .

Many kinds of animals are extinct because of mankind, for example, some kinds of bears , tigers , elephants ....etc .
As we want to live , other creatures want to live too, let us use our mind , to keep this nature , to make our children able to see these kinds of animals .
We really need to live in peace , and let others live in peace as well , I say these words with a depressing outlook , especially with the emergence of a new kind of blood sport ( Humanrace Hunting ) .
blood sports, like fox hunting , should be made illegal

my opinion is

These blood sports should be made illegal because they hunt animals just for fun. It's like playing with the animals' souls or lives by hunting them . And actually I find there is no fun in that sport also I think this sport should be a crime . We want to live and have a happy life and also these animals want the same. But if these animals are a dangers to our lives then its ok to be hunted for a reason or if there are to many of these animals it's another reason to be hunted . Also these animals have feelings and emotions and I say to people who hunt for fun to think for a minute and put themselves in that situation to see what it feels like. And some of these animals have babies they wake to bring food to their babies and they don't know if they will be alive or not and some of them are still young it's another world that we have to respect and don't get involved in . It's nature.

Is it right to retain capital punishment

It is a controversial topic to use capital punishment - the penalty of being legally killed. About 80 countries enforcie it to prevent a serious crime.

Some people insist that keeping captial punishment has a deterring effect to would-be murderers.
However, it doesn't seem to work because the countries which use this punishment have a similar crime rate compared to those which don't have it.
What's more, the verdict of jury or the decision of the court are not always correct. Sometimes, they can make a big mistake and judge unfairly. A few years age, there was a dentist who was suspected of killing his wife. He didn't accept the judgement of the lower court and appealed to supreme court. Finally the supreme court declared him innocent after 5 years.

Those who approve of capital punishment think that we are spending a lot of tax managing prisoners who commit a crime. However I think our society should take responsibilty for the criminals. It is useless to take revenge on them through a legal way.
One of the most important things is to prevent crime and educate them to live together.

Soft drugs like marijuana should be illegal


The “The “Soft Drugs” such as marijuana is becoming more and more popular in the world. To some people, marijuana is not a kind of drug, they just use it to lessen the pain as a medicine. However, the danger of marijuana should never been neglected.

It is certain that smoking marijuana will hurt human lungs and the nervous system.One who habitually smokes marijuana could get a lot of immediate effects .But, the danger of smoking marijuana does not only have some immediate effects, but also something more.

Long-term regular users of marijuana may become psychologically dependent. Especially some young people. They may have a hard time limiting their use, they may need more of the drug to get the same effect, and they may develop problems with their jobs and personal relationships. The drug can become the most important aspect of their lives.On the other hand, marijuana could be a way to some other “hard drug” such as heroin and cocaine.


To my way of thinking, drugs are drugs, there is little difference between “soft drugs” and “hard drugs”. Both of them are executioners of human’s health. Both of them should be illegal , if not , more and more people (Especially some teenagers) will find a way to hurt themselves.”

There is nothing wrong with people living together before they are married.

I agree with that because marriage is kind of arrangement that two different people live together until they die, but recently many married couples get married and divorce too easily and quickly. I think it's a very serious problem in the world, that's why we need to live together before we are married.
First, you will get to know a lot about him.
When you are dating him, he always wants to show you his nice appearance and nice attitude, but when you try living together that situation changes and you can see his real personality even though you have been dating him for 10 years.
Second, you need to have a trial marriage.
Actually, dating and marriage are quite different but we don't know how so I think a trial marriage is very helpful before our real marriage. You can do everything that you imagined your marrid life would be when you were young. Also when you have the time which is trial and error, you will realise that you are more mature than before.
Therefore, I think cohabiting with our partner before we are married is better than marrying our partner without any previous information .

The picture to show the oldest watch


The 450-year-old portrait which is being displayed in a gallery shows a part of the golden timepiece and has been sent to a renaissance expert to investigate it.

The first watch was invented in 1500 in Germany and this picture was drawn around 1560. This picture shows a close ralationship between science and art at that time.


This picture has been in the museum's collection for 33 years and a curator found it and decided to research it. It was painted by the renaissance master Maso da San Friano and the model of portrait is known as Cosimo I de Medici, Duke of Florence who was interested in science and art.




A cold climate for resorts


Resort holidaying gets ready for a cold climate
Tracey Bartosial was a host of a trendy seafront cafe at the Irish Sea tide . She told the reporter of BBC about her cafe`s situation.

"The weather has had a huge impact, it has not been a good summer." She said.
Tracey`s cafe opened for 4 years, they were open until 10pm and people were queueing out the door, and that was without a reputation, but four years down the line, their hours are 10 til 4pm - that is a huge drop.
She told the reporter, "We haven't had one late night opening in the summer. I had 20 on my staff - I'm down to three now."

With the promise of good weather and more people holidaying at home, there were hopes that the resort might enjoy a renaissance inspired by flagship regeneration projects . But as the summer drew to a close, these hopes receded.

She added: "Hopefully we will be here next summer, but hand on heart, I do not know. I take each day as it comes."

A man called Tom Morgan was attacked by a stag and he spent 15 minute sfighting for his life with this wild animal on Calmough mountain.
He was out with his family for a walk and he faced that animal and he just wanted to take a photo of that animal but the animal felt that he wasin danger and attacked Tom with his antlers and made a 20 hole in Tom`s body. and Mr Morgan`s wife and his daughter were watching the attack and hoping that it would finish soon becuase they couldn't do anything to stop this wild animal they were in shock.
Mr Morgan said"as soon the stag got in front of me he straight attacked me in my chest".
and his reaction was just to grab this wild animal with his antlers . Mr Morgan said also " the stag was pushing me down me down field. and he gave up for that stag.
At that moment,Rory Coffey had seen the attack from far away so he went to help and he urged the badly injured man to crawl away. Mr Morgan saw that Rory was in danger too and each of them had gored holes and pains. Mr Morgan pulled himself over the gate falling over onto the road and he was watching Rory struggling with the stag and he felt when he was in the same situation and he was in some pain for Rory being there and Mr morgan went and he felt guilty that Rory had come to rescue him and put his life in danger and he was going to die for me.
Eventually Rory had a chance to escape from that stag and both men were saved but they have serious injuries.
Mr Morgan said he is lucky to be alive after what happened and he didn't know how to return the favour to Rory who rescued him and didn't know how to show his gratitude to Rory Coffey.
The stag was later shot by trained marksman.

When we talk about the world we find a lot of different things , a lot of " wars , recklessness , polticians , ordinary people , stratified? " .


But there is a club that could make us live together , you can be a member in this club if you are chocolate fan .

One new member has registered as a chocolate fan after he was accused of sidestepping a question about his favourite biscuit during an online chat on the parent's website Mumsnet, saying he is partial to chocolate biscuits .

He used the social networking site Twitter to reveal that he likes "anything with a bit of chocolate though he was trying hard to cut down ."

Mumsnet users speculated that it might be Garibaldi or Nice, another asked whether he dunked.
But Mr Brown left the hour long session with the question unanswered.
The PM was more open about his health, after speculation about his eyesight, saying he was "fighting fit".
Mr Brown joins a growing list of politicians to take part in web chats on social media sites aimed at mothers, including Tory leader David Cameron and Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg.
