The Popularity Of Tattooing
... words a single ruler governed them.
Thanks once again to the Europeans another great injustice was done to certain group of people. If it wasn’t for a French explorer by the name of Dumont dUrville and a few others we would know next to nothing about the art of tattooing in Tonga. Apparently dUrville demonstrated a picture of a Tongan man’s tattoo. Tattoos in Tonga were done with tools made out of bone or shell. One of the tools was heated with a flammable oil that came form a certain type of nut called “Candlenut.” Unlike here in the United States tattooing in Tonga was long and painful. This too ...

Disabled People
... we may think is so easy they think is much harder. And I think people need to realize that and help them out a little. I feel bad for the way they have to live their lives.
Buchanan has many students who are disabled. It is very unfortunate that there are so many of them. Disability awareness is a very big problem in today’s society. Most of the students who attend Buchanan high school don’t take into consideration that they have feelings too. are real people just like us. They may think and act different that people we are used to being around. However they still need to be treated with kindness and respect.

... and society. However, any business should keep it's original purpose
of functioning - making profit. Balancing the traditional standards of
profitability and burden of social responsibilities is not an easy task. In
recent years it has been a trend of setting standards of corporate ethics
according to high degree of morale.
To be able to keep the ethical standards management must follow the law.
However, there are some complications in enforcing it. The law affects and is
affected by social forces and prevailing ethical standards. "Although the law

Comparison Between African And American Cultures
... need. The next few paragraphs will talk about
comparison of our culture and Africa's culture.
The culture in Kenya is only advancing in certain parts, mainly the
bigger cities. There are also many very remote towns and villages that still
have some of the native people left in them. Since there are so many different
tribes they have lots of native languages. In America Spanish is one of the
only other languages spoken. Some of the different tribes in Africa are the
Sanburose, Omallose, and Turcanas. The people in these places use many of the
old ways and follow most of the traditions their ancestors did b ...

progress that the nation made since Emancipation Proclamation and to celebrate
Lincoln's birthday took place; Thereupon, a statement, now known as "The Call",

another conference was held. As a result of that conference, the NAACP was born.

theory, ethics, and law.
Philosophical Humanism is any outlook or way of life centered on human need and
interest. Sub categories of this type include the two following.

“a philosophy advocating the self fulfillment of man within the framework of

The Problem Of Domestic Violence
... will be about domestic violence, and because of
that I feel it is important to note that "in most families men and women do
not engage in physically abusive behavior" (The Brown U.), but because the
media feels that it is their public duty to deceive us into believing that
this problem is an "epidemic" (Domestic V.) we feel that, that is the case.
Webster's dictionary defines epidemic as "a rapid spreading of a disease;
to many people at the same time", this is not the case with domestic
violence, one it didn't just happen overnight, it has just been popularized
overnight, domestic violence has been going on fro ...

Selecting A Home
... to come out. I especially
like the fact that you can decorate as you please. If you want your rooms a
certain color, just paint them. If you want wallpaper up, go right ahead
and put it up. If you want ceiling fans in every room, that is up to you.
If you would like a garden in the front lawn, plant your favorite flowers.
With most houses there is a garage for your car. You do not have to worry
about the sun fading your car paint, the hail denting your car, or the rain
dirtying your car, after you just washed it.
However, a major disadvantage would be having your own yard. This
means cutting the grass, raking ...

Gays: A Struggle For Acceptance
... had a choice in the matter is another. I
think gays' relentless struggle for acceptance into mainstream society came from
the American constitution itself. After all, the gay liberation movement started
in America, the land of the free, where all men are created equal and with an
inalienable right to pursue their own happiness. No one should be able to take
these rights away from anyone. Also, in the 1950s, the civil rights movement
became active and words like desegregation and equal rights for all became
synonymous with the American way of life. Stand up and fight against those who
have done you wrong! This i ...
