Taeloni Public Service Announcement James The problem is James is being a bully and he won't stop picking on the same people over and over. When he try's to bully a kid who is bigger than him, he gets scared when the kid stands up for himself and he apolagizes to everyone who he picked on, and he never bullied anyone again.

 * Internet Policies
 * When I was watching the video the first thing I learned was that nearly 3 in 4 teens ages 12-17 have a network social profile, like Facebook or Twitter. 46% of teens have a cell phone and they are always on the Internet. There are some people who create a fake profile and post things that are not true but what they don’t know is that other people get hurt because of the things you do. Some people also copy and paste some things and they take credit for it. They know they can’t do that but they do it anyways. If you did all that work how would you feel if someone else copied it and took credit for it?
 * Also many parents don’t check on their kids when they are on the Internet, which they have to do. Many parents do that it’s called P.O.S. Parents over shoulder, those parents check up on their kids so they can be safe and to make sure they aren’t talking to strangers. If I was a parent I would make sure I check my kid when he on the Internet. Parents also have to be responsible that their kids aren’t always on the Internet. They have to go outside and do a little bit of exercise so that they won’t get sick. Parents should be checking up on them when they are in a social networking site. I have a Facebook and I like it a lot but my parents don’t let me be on the Internet for more than an hour.

** Zebra **

Zebras are Prey for lions and hyenas; zebras are constantly on the lookout for danger. Zebras are social animals that spend time in herds. They graze together, primarily on grass, and even groom one another. A herd has many eyes alert to danger. If an animal is attacked, its family will come to its defense, circling the wounded zebra and attempting to drive off predators.

In the wild, zebras live about 20-30 years; in zoos they can live up to 40 years. Zebras graze primarily on tough grasses, but they also browse on leaves, which may constitute up to 30 percent of their diet. When chased, a zebra will zigzag from side to side, making it more difficult for the predator to catch them. When cornered, a zebra will rear up and kick or bite its attacker. Zebra are extremely dependent on water and never wander far from waterholes, where they usually drink at least once a day. It is the responsibility of an adult mare (often the oldest), to guide the family as they move from area to area and ensure that they never wander too far from water. Zebras are only found in the wild in one continent: Africa. Zebras in a herd might all look alike, but their stripe patterns are as distinctive as fingerprints are in humans. Scientists can identify individual zebras by comparing patterns, stripe widths, color and scars.

A zebra's stripes probably catch the eye more quickly than any other adaption.

these stripes serve several purposes. This includes "dazzle" camouflage. Unlike other forms of camouflage, dazzle camouflage does not hide the zebra. Instead, it breaks up his outline and makes it harder for predators to judge distances -- throwing off their strikes when hunting.

Zebra have several types of teeth that help them survive in their habitats. In the front of their mouths, zebra use their strong incisors for biting off grass and other vegetation. In the rear of their mouths, zebra have molars and premolars to grind down their food. Unlike other mammals, zebras feature large, high-crowned grinding teeth, since many of the grasses they eat feature a high silica content that can wear down teeth. Additionally, males have enlarged canine teeth for fighting.

Zebra have several behavioral adaptations in addition to their physical adaptations. For example, most species of zebra live in herds, like other members of the horse family. Unlike most other horse species, zebra often herd with other animals as well, such as giraffes. While this behavioral adaptation offers many of the same advantages for all herding animals -- such as more eyes to spot predators -- living in groups enhances some other zebra adaption’s.
