1. Babydoll-Delicious Real Women Campaign 
Babydoll-Delicious have started a Real Women campaign to try to change the way people feel about themselves and what the media and advertising campaigns portray to be normal.
Babydoll-Delicious are trying to promote health and confidence in all men & women and help empower people to make a difference.
Babydoll-Delicious aim to highlight just how many people feel the same way and have a social effect on both the 'Sexy Sells' attitude of major corporations and what is perceived to be 'Sexy' and 'Sold' to the public via mainstream media.
Using real women of all sizes, shapes and looks to model lingerie not just the typical Victorias Secret Models you see on most sites.
Babydoll-Delicious are going to use a number of methods including Real Women modelling Lingerie, Social Networking, Local Media and charity work including Beat (eating disorders) to raise awareness of their campaign and spread the word.
However, the most important link in our campaign is YOU! If you agree with what we are trying to do sign below to show your support and more importantly.........

2. Larger Band Room for Hayes Middle School
The band class curriculum calls for the whole grade to be in the band room at one time. The band room is not large enough to fit the whole grade. The band room is on steps which is not the same as what would be on stage. The band class can not properly learn if the room is not large enough and if the room is not on a flat floor.
If the room is to be changed there will have to be smaller rooms connected for the storage of instruments and other equipment.
We feel that the mainstream media, who's respsonible for our contemporary public sphere, lacks a diverse representation of women of different sizes as well as ethnicties. As a result, our "ideal beauty" is becoming more and more narrow, women are developing a skew sense of self, leading to depression, self-loathing, poor self esteem and eating disorders.
We have seen your epsisode on "Everyday Women" and found it to be an insuffiecent way to address real women and their body image. Many designers notes that it was difficult to design for plus size women and make it beautiful - we feel these comments were not addressed in a responsible manner. We ask you, in your next season to dedicate one episode to responsibly address body image in the media and its affect on real women.
