one topic is Lebron's legacy at stake with being traded to the Miami heat i personally think lebron should have stayed in Cleveland, because all the best players ever played their whole careers at the same city. i think if lebron wanted to win the cavs could have easily brought some people around him to win. sell out move i feel, but i don't think any different of him as a player.

another topic is the NFL helmet to helmet contact. i think the protection of the players is necessary but the league cant crack down on these players and take money away because its football. these guys know what they signed up for. the game is based on hard hits and big stops. some of the more obvious ones should be delt wit but when you playing at the speed they are playing at and guys are trying no to get hit, its easy for two helmets to collide.

lastly is the legalization of marijuana. i support this law. i think it will help to get America out of debt and bring some currency to our country. i think this because if you look at all other banned drugs they are all chemically engineered or something done to them. weed is just a plant that has side effects. and also proved to beneficial to health reasons like cancer and arthritis.

journel 8

Toothpaste- the typical toothpaste tube is about 9 inches in length and has a snap open and nap close top (newer toothpaste tubes.) unopened there is room to squeeze around the thick paste that is inside. upon opening the tube the insides don't squeeze out all that easy and is placed on the head of your toothbrush with intentions on cleaning your teeth.

candy liquid paste- this type of sugary candy come in almost the exact type of tube but is generally about 3 or four inches smaller in length. even the cap is they same, if not used properly the paste will flood the top of the tube and cap making the candy look disgusting and very sticky. the bottle has one or two large words running down the middle of the tube like that for toothpaste companies. yet this paste is probably the worst thing your can have for you teeth, because of its sugary content

I will be evaluating Lil Wayne the rapper. he deserves merit because he is arguably the best and most popular rapper alive today. He makes hit song after hit song, and appears in photos everywhere. all over the Internet, television and magazines. the criteria i will be evaluating him on is as follows.
Public Image- how Lil Wayne is viewed in television, the newspapers, radio, and magazines. do they portray him as a good person? successful at what he does ? with Lil Wayne being on the front of so many magazines do these companies think that highly of him to make him the face of that specific issue? with trouble with the law how is that portrayed by the media?

Fan Base- how large is Lil Wayne's fan base? how does his fan base compare to the fan base of say another top music artist? what are some things his fans say about him? why is it that his fans like him so much? the relationship that Lil Wayne has with his fans and how close his fans are to him?

Record sales- what are his record says upon a new release of an album? how many albums and mix tapes have Lil Wayne released? how many of them went platinum? what is his yearly earnings solely off of record sales.

Variety of listeners- what type of people listen to Lil Wayne's music? is it young kids? or does he have listeners of all ages? is it usually African American people or all races? what are the percentages of each? what is his international listeners like? large amount or no as much?

Back round- who is Lil Wayne really? where did he come from, was his life a struggle, how did he make it? who helped him along his way? who are the people that he keeps around him now? producers, entourage?
