Would Anyone Be Willing To Edit This Short Paragraph? Pretty Please With Sprinkles On Top?
Okay, so in social studies class today I got bored, so I decided to start writing chapter three of my novel. (Does anyone else write in class when they get bored? I mean — like other than school work?) But anyway, I think it sounds kind of awkward, and I would appreciate it if you could edit it for me. (Keep in mind some words are italicized, but it doesn’t show up on Y!A) .. just please try and make it less-awkward. Thank you! =)
“Plantation output increases, the South demanding for more cotton,” affirmed Mr. Levi in regards to the whole cotton gin-thing which must of happened.. well, I guess a long time ago. Sitting in the firm, front row seat, I wondered if my face was a saliva magnet.
My eyes were drifting, my mouth a rubber band as I yawned. For some reason, I’ve always disdained Mr. Levi’s class. And history class in general, basically. I mean, I even though Mr. Levi was awkward, I couldn’t blame the man for history being so dull. Why did we have to learn about history anyway? As long as we were knowledgeable of present-day events, then in my opinion us school-aged kids would be alright. Plus, why did I have to be in AP History? It’s not my fault that I’m intelligent (not trying to brag, either.)
Somehow I manage to get perfect test grades yet I don’t study.. for ANYTHING. I guess I just have common sense, so I get the right answers on tests. Even if I try to fail – actually, I’m not even going to finish that sentence. Why? Well simply because, I don’t try to fail. Why? Because that would just be stupid. I’ll admit, I’m thankful that I’m smart – I just hate AP History.

Which Are The Non-kosher Foods ?
The Torah forbids us to eat any land animal (or the milk of that animal) that does not have two distinctive simanim (signs, indications) that attest to its kashrut. The animal must both chew its cud (ruminate) and have completely cloven hooves. Cows, goats, sheep, deer, bison, gazelle, antelope, ibex, addax and giraffe are animals that have both of these characteristics and are considered beheimah tehorah (kosher animals) and need not be inspected individually. A pig does not chew its cud although it has split hooves. A camel chews its cud but has no split hooves. Both of these animals (and certainly an animal possessing neither of the simanim, like a donkey or horse) are therefore considered beheimah temeiah – (“unclean”) non-kosher animals.
The Torah similarly differentiates between kosher and non-kosher fowl. Unlike animals, the Torah gives no signs to differentiate between kosher and non-kosher fowl. The Torah merely lists twenty-four types of forbidden fowl; all other fowl are assumed to be kosher. The Talmud does provide signs to identify non-kosher fowl. However, since we lack the experience to apply these rules, we are permitted to eat only those fowl traditionally accepted as kosher. All variations of the common chicken are accepted as kosher. Similarly, common domestic ducks, geeses and doves are considered kosher. Some communities have a tradition that the quail is a kosher fowl. With the appearance of turkeys, Rabbis questioned whether a reliable tradition exists about their kashrut. Common custom today accepts turkeys as kosher fowl. There is no definitive tradition about the status of a pheasant, peacock, guinea hen, partridge, swan, or certain species of wild ducks, geese, pigeons and doves; therefore, they should not be eaten. The eggs of any non-Kosher fowl are also forbidden to be eaten.
Even a kosher animal or fowl (the laws of neveilah do not apply to fish) may not be eaten unless it is slaughtered in the prescribed manner. An animal slaughtered improperly or an animal that died in any other manner is a neveilah and may not be eaten. The laws of shechita (ritual slaughtering) are complex and are discussed in Jewish Law at length.
