.... black, and now, African-American. I can't seem to find a consensus out there in any media, one moment the reference is to blacks, and the next to African-Americans, when they are referring to the same group of people. I'm not knocking what people want to call themselves, it's the mixed messages I'm getting and the inaccuracy of the terminology that frustrates me. Look around and you will see there is the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the Black Muslims, and African-Americans. All of these terms are used to refer to m .....

.... for one main reason. That reason is technology. Technology plays an important role in everyone's lives today. Without it, we would not have computers, fax machines, cellular phones, and all of the modern conveniences that we have today. The fact is, that many people believe that the wilderness is like an unborn country. A country that has nothing and is striving to become more advanced. We see this as an opportunity to better it and make it seem like we are actually helping. But, are we really helping? In my opinion, no. I feel that we are destro .....

.... you have walked into is a testing laboratory for cosmetics. The technician gives a short bark of laughter and asks if you would like to see the skin-testing lab. Every year millions of animals suffer and die in painful tests to determine ‘the safety’ of items ranging from eye shadow to oven cleaner. The eye irritancy test described above is only one of the tests that convince me that animal product testing is absolutely wrong. A lethal dose test force-feeds animals a particular chemical in order to see how toxic it is. It may also be injected under the .....

.... children and sometimes they don't, but when they do, it usually brings them closer together. All parents have desires and hopes for their children. The way in which parents achieve these ends can differ. Researchers do not agree on which of the child-raising practices is best. But it is known that parents provide role models for their children and that children rely on their parents to teach them about the world. When a culture's values and traditions undergo a rapid change it becomes difficult to decide which attitudes and beliefs children should be ta .....

.... own personal protection and well-being. Parents desire their children to grow up in a safe and stable environment and look to the government for support. However, our government can not be expected to support or solve the problems associated with censoring violent television programs. One of the main reasons why government cannot be expected to censor violent television programming is because of the Constitution’s "freedom of expression" clause. Producers of television programming declare that "freedom of expression" and "freedom from censorship" are gu .....

.... Will the women even out with the men in the workforce and share an even percentage with them at 50% a piece? Or is it possible that women will overtake the men and the men will be forced to pursue their equal rights? This experiment will attempt to answer that very question. In a setting where the qualifications are equivalent, do women or men have a better shot at landing a job? Is there now a discrimination against men for no other reason except the fear of not hiring a woman? Do college males have the same chance of being hired as colleg .....

.... rape and use drugs. This is not the America that we knew, this is a battle. What can we do to influence these kids to stay off trouble? First of all, we have to realize this is a very serious problems. And it has to be stopped. The second step is to figure out what causes children to be violent and become juvenile delinquents. This negative attitude causes them to lead a life of delinquency and a life isolated from society's idealistic world. When we ask these question, many others come in mind. Does these problems begin in the family? Are .....

.... history than other industrialized nations. Illiteracy rates are high, and more and more students are graduating from school even if they have been absent more days than allowed. To improve this, committees have been organized will develop voluntary national and state standards for education and authorize grants to develop model programs to improve learning. Employment is an issue that every American must deal with. In society today, women are forcing their way into the business world. Although females' incomes are generally less than males, both inc .....
