London - Policearemonitoringsocialnetworkingsites popular with teenagers such as Bebo, Facebook and MySpace after claims that they are being used to organize mass brawls (对骂).
Kent Police believe that teenagers have been using the Internet to arrange “fight club” contests watched by up to 100 spectators in a public park.
At least six organized fights have taken place in Brenchley Gardens in Maidstone, Kent, according to one teenage blogger. (59) During one of the fights a 14-year-old boy was arrested for carrying a hunting knife. Kent Police have now ordered specialist officers to monitor sites such as Bebo.
Chief Inspector Ian Hall said: “(60) We are aware of attempts to organize fights using technology such as websites and mobile phones. Pupils from some schools in the area may be involved in this type of anti-social behavior and we are working with schools to eradicate (根除) the problem.”
According to one blogger the fights usually take place on Saturday nights. The contests are named after the Hollywood film Fight Club starring Edward Norton and Brad Pitt. The central characters fight for the adrenaline rush but the film has an ironic twist (歪曲) apparently lost on some of its audience.
This week police in Macclesfield, Cheshire, arrested six teenagers on suspicion of public order offences after an investigation into a series of assaults (袭击). The youths, aged 16 and 17, were released on police bail (保释). The officers discovered that attacks had been discussed and possibly even prearranged using the Bebo websites.
In Collumpton, Devon, last weekend police intercepted (阻止) 30 pupils going to a mass brawl carrying metal bars, pieces of wood and chain.

A
Billy: I am usually very hungry by 5:30 when school is over, so I go to the nearest food shop to buy some snacks. Then I go home and do my homework. Because the workload is very heavy, I need four or even five hours to finish it. On weekends, I usually go walking in the park. There is a small mountain in the park and I often do some climbing there. That's on Sunday, but on Saturday I have to spend the day at school.
Grace: I like walking, too. I prefer going to one of the islands on weekends. During the week, like Billy, I need to deal with my lessons. But on Tuesdays I always go swimming at the local indoor pool after school. After that, I meet some friends in TV games center in Star Club. We girls like playing games as much as the boys. I go to the Internet bar to chat with some net friends on Sunday evening. I find it fantastic.
Jenny: I never go to these centers or clubs. Nearly every day I go home on time. I never chat with strangers on the Internet. I never have time for sports. I seldom watch TV at home. The only two things I do at home are studying and sleeping. After a day's work, I always feel tired. One thing I almost forget is that on Sunday evening I go to a restaurant with my parents. In a word, my life is dull and uninteresting.

There’s nothing wrong with turning your hobbies into business. We’re supposed to enjoy our work, right? Just turn something we already enjoy into our careers. Whether you’re turning into painting or building, you know you feel proud of the result of your efforts.
However, you should first explore the concept and do your market research and other planning. Don’t forget to consider what your day-to-day work life would look like.
There is one very positive aspect of doing a business plan based on your hobby. You may be highly motivated to do some planning and research, since this relates to an activity you know well and enjoy, and then you may be more likely to do the necessary planning. This is a big plus! And once you see how to do this research, you may be more likely to do it for other ideas you will come up with.
Something I’ve learned over the years is that creating business out of the first few ideas you come up with isn’t a good goal. If you are brainstorming ideas for your new career path, I suggest you list lots of ideas and choose one or two that have the most potential to explore, as well as those that really draw you in.
The evolution of your ideas is the best reason to explore those first ideas. The best careers come from exploring the first ideas and finding out what will and what won’t work for you.
Make sure the business plan you are creating based on your hobbies should be the one that you will enjoy and that will add to your quality of life. Then start with your hobbies, and enjoy the adventure of finding out where you will end up!
