Stay Tuned: The Exploitation Of Children In Television Advertisements
.... hours captivated by various
advertising tactics and do not understand their subtleties. Though advertisers
in America's free enterprise system are regulated because of societal pressures,
they also are protected in their rights under freedom of expression to unfairly
target America's youth in order to sell to their parents, regardless of the very
young's inability to recognize the art of persuasion.
In the free enterprise system, the advertiser's role is to persuade
consumers to buy their products/services. They are given a product/service and
are required to use their best creative effort to make this product desirable

Television Violence
.... watching violent television programs. The child would want to watch
that program twice as much just because their parents said not to watch it. The
child would be curious to find out what is so wrong about the program. Some
people get the wrong messages or get bad ideas from watching some shows. If
parents were to educate their children before watching shows like "Mighty
Morphan Power Rangers", " X-Men" and "Cops" , then they wouldn't have to worry
about their child getting wrong messages. Television shows also send out wrong
messages to adults too. People that watch shows like "Cops" may and try the
violent acts that are shown o .....

Television Violence
.... making the government start to try and solve
the problem by initiating laws in which television stations must limit violence
on T.V.(6). It is still not enough though the problem must be taken care of
promptly before it changes society as a whole. If the problem is not taken care
of swiftly then it could effect the future of the world by having violence
rampage the streets of our towns.
In the past when television was first invented it was a much happier
time. people could walk on our streets without having to care if they were
going to make it home alive. I'm not trying to say that television is the reason
that society to .....

Terrorism
.... overthrow a state or states seeking
to overthrow the international order or states seeking to maintain privilege for
rulers and stifle dissent among the people. In every case the motivation for
terrorism is explicitly without an exception, political.
Terrorism has a long, if tainted,. pedigree. Aristotle recognized it, even if it
had no name at the time, when he wrote that "the first aim and end of tyrants is
to break the spirit of their subjects." What we know as terrorism can be traced
to the Russian nihilists and anarchists of the 19th century, who gave a name to
what would otherwise be considered "random acts of violence" th .....

Terrorism
.... relations.
How can you prevent acts of terrorism when those paid to protect the
people are among the guilty? The Ku Klux Klan is a prime example of police
corruption and a government that turned its' back on its' people. Dirty cops and
prejudicial governments provided the fuel that burnt black churches of the
Southern States in the past . Many white citizens were not members of the Ku
Klux Klan, but most whites were reluctant to take a stand against the Klan until
the KKK's acts of violence began to threaten whites who were not white
supremacists. When whites began to oppose the Klan, they went underground a .....

Australian Life
.... in the rain . They wore hard wearing blucher boots and
broad felt hats . The bushman would often have a drinkdown the pub . They often
told stories to each other as their past time . The bushmans homes were made
from slabs of bark , green hide . The houses were simple and didn't always show
advantage . Nor dose it have to , the bushman's home (bellow) is there to
shelter him .
In the 1880's writers and painters portrayed the bush life as better then
the city life . This bought on the image that all Australians lived in the bush
.

The city life of Australia was not recognized as much as the bush life

Canada Lacks A Real National Identity
.... lack a Canadian identity, because we as Canadians do not
really think of ourselves as Canadians. We may be Canadians but we think of
Canada as a place of refuge rather than a home. This ties in with our lack of
patriotism. Many Canadians that I know, come Olympic time or another big world
competition, rather that cheering for Canada, will cheer for their home country.
A reason for this is because of our multicultural society. Because in Canada, Ś
anything goesą, there is no push to be Canadian. So they can do what they want
and carry on with their cultural traditions. Because there is really no
Canadian identity to begin wit .....

Birthing Cermonies Of Other Cultures
.... She does this by taking walks in the fields and over the
hills. They believe that the baby is consciously taking all of this in to
prepare him/her for life within that culture.
When the baby is born none of the mothers children should be
around. The only people there are the ones that were chosen by the
representatives and the parents. If someone can not make it then someone will
have to fill in for them. The only people besides children who are not allowed
to see are the single women. The only way that they can attend is if there is
no one else to go. There has to be three couples at the birth of the chil .....

The Graffiti Exposure In Wynnum
.... towards the authority;
Boredom from lack of authority;
To convince of self-existence, and
To explore prohibited areas placed by authority.
The pattern of locations the police established, is that all the tags, or the
writer's signature, are placed in exposed, publicised areas so the public can
witness the graffiti vandal's attempt to ‘make his point.'
The targets are not necessarily towards formal authority, such as the police,
but also informal authorities such as social morals; for example, the principle
of a school.
If we removed authority from our society, the social control would be lost,
making it .....

Important Factors In A Romantic Relationship
.... shows one's affection. Holidays such as
Valentine's Day emphasize the need to show that special someone how admired they
really are. Courtship allows people to continuously grow closer and learn new
things about each other. Whether it is giving a sweetheart a dozen roses, or
an "I love you" now and then, courtship is what keeps the flame alive between
romantic partners.
Love binds all romantic relationships. Without love they would not
exist. George Hebert shows the benefits of love in relationships in this
quotation that states "Love makes all hard hearts gentle." This quote expresses
how a cold person coming into a .....

Pidgin: Dialect Of English Spoken On The Hawaiian Islands
.... the islands look at this dialect as a sign of a poor education
and up-bringing. My mother did not want her son associated with such a group of
individuals.
When I started school at Maunawili School and began to pick up Pidgin
and start to speak it at home she took it upon herself to change me. At this
time she was teaching sixth grade at Keolu Elementary. She saw how her kids
could not speak proper English, only Pidgin. Many of them also wrote in Pidgin,
something I had begun to do. My mother saw this behavior and forced me to
change. My parents put me in Punahou School, one of the best private schools in
the nation, to fa .....

The Rise Of Violent Crime In Canada
.... prices for certain food products. People then refer very
casually to this act as a crime or that these prices are criminal. Individuals
in our Society often have a fear of being victimized by others, such as the
government, friends and or strangers. This fear is often equated with crime
since all crimes have a winner and a loser or victim as would be the legal term.
This equation often makes involvement in these acts of "crime" a personal thing.
Which results in stronger feelings and sometimes irrational thinking towards the
whole subject of crime. Many times people are not reporting these crimes
because it is their duty in a .....
