Stringrays



To sting or not to sting.

What is more harmful a man eating shark or fierce and deadly stingrays attack? The answer is both but for some strange reasons stingrays are on the rise. For surfer this can create a big problem as they can leap out of the water and can sting you to death. In 2005, beloved Crocodile Hunter Stephen Irwin was malt and killed to a watery grave from a stingray. Are they going to appear on the Jersey Shore like they did for California coast? In this article, we will discuss with a professional marine biologist Scott Casano, a famous marine biologist from Catania Italy who specializes in stingrays.

The summer is coming and surfing season beginning, surfers are anxious to hit the ocean and the last thing they need is a panic about stingrays. Stingrays are closing related to another predator in the water the shark. Stingrays are mostly found in the tropical and subtropical seas. The stingrays are covered with skin, and an integumentary sheath, where phenom is produced. The stingray has a tail which Is where it can sting ray leaving you badly paralyzed or on the verge of dyeing. Stingrays are common to leap out of waters and attack people (this is shown in the picture above). Are stingrays on the rises, should we be worried even more know that we have the Gulf of Mexico oil spill or is just a something that shouldn’t even be bothered with. We will talk with Casano about this and if he thinks it is something to be worried about or just shrug off his shoulders.

Scott Casano, grew up in the Southern Italy that specialized in marine life. He says “I grew up next to the ocean and I appreciate every marine animal”. He studied in Italy, and then came to the States to study the upcoming epidemic of stingrays in California. After days of research, Casano came up with the conclusion “No, according the data he collected at Venice Beach.”Due to popular believe, stingrays are not on the rise, just because we see one doesn’t mean they are on the rise.” Casano commeted on his discovery “the stingray we discovered at Venice beach is dangerous and some are fatal”.Casano said “Stingrays are harmful to everybody in marine life due to their barb tail which is used to sting people.” The marine biologist commented on their eating saying “Stingrays are bottom feeder and prey on crustacean, mollusks, and worms” which means they are found on the bottom of the ocean not on the surface. I posed the question, what are they on the rise.” He replied “Typically due to environment changes and they try to adapt. With summer coming up, surfers ask the question “We it harm beach life i.e surfing, family outings. The catanist said“Stingrays are more afraid of you then you are of them. If there is an unfortunate encounter it is just a case of bad luck”. He also stated that “Stingrays may tend to inhabit the more shallow waters where surfers would be; however, because they stay near the bottom, surfers probably would know they are there”. His final word on this is “Let the epidemic’ run it’s course, and treat them carefully and with the respect any animal deserves”.
In conclusion, stingrays are not on the rise.





Junior exemptions

Why do seniors only get except? Is it because they work sooo hard? Junior should be able to get except. Most juniors meet the criteria and some are over achievers. Shouldn’t they get extra practice for college? In life there are no exemptions. http://www.warwickonline.com/view/full_story_news/7879492/article-Seniors-with-A-s-won-t-take-finals?instance=home_news_1st_left
A student would try harder if there is a reward. Ever hear the saying “the harder the work the greater the reward”. Most juniors are eligible to receive exemptions. If you poll juniors in RBR, they would all give you the same answer, if they are eligible to receive an exempt they would work harder. This gives a junior the mind set to try harder and receive better grades. Everybody has to work for something whether money or fame and when they receive it, it is so much sweeter to them.
Up until 2005, juniors were allowed to get exempt. This brought grades up an all time high and finals an all time low. Wait, doesn’t having good grades better represent the school rather than test. For some reason, the BOE decided to remove junior exemptions. Shouldn’t juniors receive an exemption because it our hardest year and senior just be better prepared for college. What happen in college, can they get exempt. Junior year is when we began our SATS and prepare for life after high i.e work or college. Senior has their college planned out and they know exactly what they are doing. A junior year is stressful enough without us worrying about finals. A junior year represents the year college look at the most. In this recent story, doctors explain junior takes a toll on high students and stress can cause many medical problems. My opinion junior exemptions should be reinstated so junior can receive the reward after a long school year’s work.


Satire
Exaggeration-In this article, I satirized the fact that seniors work harder than they do because they are about to college and give up on senior year classifying themselves as having senioritis. Juniors work harder to make the college proud and entice them to choose them.

Reversal- The fact that the state of NJ, looks towards test grades rather than overall grades. IN achieving a better grade, it means that you are a hard worker and retain the material.
