Imagine that you are the nature that is going to save by selling it. Selling nature to save it is like risking the nature to the effects of human activities, allow capitalists to dominate with the business and the nature has no powers to act what its feeling when we are disturbing it. Not only the effect of these activities to nature is going to be factor to disagree with selling nature to save it but also the effect of this activities to the nature surroundings. For example, the effects of the modification of the nature to be able to transform it to a nice place are: some species may be disturbed in their habitat when doing the modification or when people are visiting resulting to the decrease of species in that area or occupying other habitat; some people are undisciplined disobeying the signs in the area resulting in damage nature; people living nearby the nature to be modify would likely to be remove in their places making them to live in an area such as urban.

Just because you have tattoos don’t mean you shouldn’t have a job. 2. Employee’s may choose to have a dress code that requires that body art be covered because some tattoo’s display religious choices and derogatory things and everyone shouldn’t have to be subjected to that some tattoo’s may be offensive so you should cover them up to not offend anyone. The only jobs that should allow tattoo’s to be visible is a job that is not dealing with the public. 3. Yes because if he had the tattoos when he was hired and he didn’t acquire any new tattoos I don’t see what the problem was there wasn’t a problem when he was hired so what changed and he was covering them up so I don’t think it was because of customer complaints so on what merit did they have for firing him and why was he the only one targeted out, there was others with tattoos why weren’t they fired as well.

...Many people change their appearances and lives due to the influences of the social powers that our society has created. The definition of what is beautiful can involve standards that may appear impossible to reach for most people. These standards can require people to go to the extreme of risking their lives with cosmetic surgery or developing eating disorders to obtain their goal of being what they perceive as beautiful. People do many things based off of the influences of society, these can consist of: Circumcision, Eating Disorders, Body Building, Cosmetic Surgery, and Body Art. The major influences of these are The Media, Religions, and what people in societies have determined is socially acceptable. Abbie J. Chessler (1997) “Conformity is a powerful social force that perpetuates circumcision of both male and females” (Para. 6). For women in certain places being uncircumcised meant that the individual was unmarriageable. The purpose of female circumcisions was to control their sexuality for patriarchal reasons. As for men circumcision was a religious ritual that in modern day became a way to prevent hazardous health conditions. Eating Disorders are caused by individuals that have a perfectionist point of view in relation to their own body. The media creates an image of having no body fat that many define as perfection when it comes to beauty; this causes insecurities in people that think that they do not meet this measurement of 3 appearance, leading...

...Body Modification: A Rising Sensation I stared in horror at the fearsome needle taunting me to challenge its glinting tip. I closed my eyes, prayed with every cell in my body for the pain to be minimal, and grimaced as she expertly twirled the needle between her fingers and then slid it through my flesh in one fluid motion. When I took a peek, I gaped cross-eyed at the foreign object jutting out of my nose and smiled. I don’t remember what state of mind I was in when I walked into the parlor, but I left victorious! Throughout history, people have decorated and modified the appearance of their bodies in many different ways. Nostril piercings are thought to have been adopted into the noble castes in the Middle East almost 4000 years ago. Nowadays, nostril piercings have been adopted by Christina Aguilera. In South America, Aztec and Mayan priests pierced their tongues as part of a ritual to communicate with their gods. In several African tribes, the beauty of women was determined by the size of plates that were fitted into their upper lips. In ancient civilizations of Egypt, a “perfect belly button” could elevate someone’s social standing. At that time, only Pharaohs and royal families could pierce their navels. Anyone else was promptly executed. A “perfect belly button”, however, could be a peasant’s ticket to a better life. The ancient Romans pierced their nipples (ouch) to show their strength and endurance. It is also theorized that their nipple jewelry held their...

...Classroom and Behavior Management Plan Dr. Renee Murley Learning in the Urban Environment ICL 7709 July 31, 2009 Rules and Procedures On the first day of class, the students and I will have a conversation about my expectations and the students’ expectations for the classroom. From these expectations, together, we will create a set of guidelines for conduct in the classroom. We will also discuss common occurrences in the classroom such as late arrival, preparation for class, etc., and how they should be handled. From this class forum, we will derive the rules and procedures that will govern our classroom. Whereas, not all rules and procedures will be negotiable, we will discuss the meaning, rationality, and fairness of each rule, and also how these rules fit into the framework of the school’s guidelines. This is done with the idea in mind that if students have a part in creating the classroom rules and procedures that they will be more apt to follow them. These rules will be posted permanently in the classroom, on the teacher’s website, and also printed in written form so that the information may be given to the students, parents, and administrators. General guidelines for behaviors will be as follows: 1) Be respectful of the thoughts, feelings, personal space, and property of others and self. 2) Be on time and prepared for class. 3) Be in your desk and prepared to work when the bell rings. 4) Do ask permission before speaking or getting out of your...

...Nonverbal Communication Anna Miles Daniela Liese ENG223 Three rings in the ear, one in the nose, and a stud through the tongue. While some people find the prospect of having their bodies pierced uncomfortable, other view it was a way to express their sense of self. According to The San Diego Union-Tribune (Kinsman, 2001), body art or tattoos are more or less likely to be accepted in the workplace depending on who you interview. 20 percent of workers indicated their body art had been held against them on the job. 42 percent of employers said the presence of visible body art lowered their opinion of workers. 67 percent of workers over their body art or remove piercing during work hours. Tattoos, however, can carry significant meaning to those who choose them. For example I have a tattoo on my left wrist of a number 34. I put it up there so I can always look at it and think of him. It is a great way to talk about how he died and get the messages out about what drinking and driving does to a family and friends. He was killed with two others by a guy that drank and drives. Everyone thinks it is my favorite number or it is not real. There are so many other reasons for tattoos that have culture, communicate significant meaning to either the owners or those who see it. However, may go unnoticed by an employer or other observers who do not value self-expression in this way. Body Piercings are increasingly popular; as are tattoos- 36% of Americans aged 18 to 29 have tattoos. However...

...Henna Around The World GTQ#1 The cold sensation of the brownish black color of Henna felt wonderful on my arm. The Henna artist decorated my hands with beautiful Henna flowers. I am an Arabic Muslim girl from the Middle East, therefore, Henna is very important to me personally. As a child I was raised and grew up with the smell of Henna. Every time my mom sees my hair falling out and getting thin she will put some henna on it and it goes back to normal and even better. Henna means to me a lot, it reminds me of my childhood. GTQ#2 The popularity of Henna is changing the formula to a harmful substance. According to the New York Times, "Henna tattoos are widely available and usually harmless" (Bakalar). It is becoming more popular in the US because it is a temporary design and alternative to the real tattoos. As Henna becomes more popular, people are adding chemicals to the original formula. "Henna is a vegetable dye that can be brown, red or green, and it wears off in a matter of days. But to produce a darker color, some tattoo artists added a chemical called Paraphenylenediamine, or PPD”(Bakalar). Henna is a natural plant but adding chemicals to the original formula made it very harmful. Adding chemicals to Henna burned and blistered a”a 19-year-old woman who had a temporary tattoo applied at a wedding”(Bakalar). The Kuwaiti woman was one of the people who got affected by the PPD. Henna changed from a harmless temporary tattoo to a very harmful...

...Critical Argument Analysis University of Phoenix Cassondra Capers ENG/215 September 14, 2013 Dr. Williams Critical Argument Analysis Americans have their own culturally determined sense of physical perfection, and they often go to extremes with diets, exercise, fashions, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics to achieve a certain look. Body piercings or images show how men and women feel about themselves and or to tell a story. Life of body modification for men and woman gives them free expression to express themselves freely without restrictions. Body modification is a diverse argument that has many different standpoints of discussion. The definition for body modification is the perceptions, thoughts, and feelings a person has about his or her physical appearance. It is, thought to play an important role in self-esteem for many individuals. Although body modification is to consider being a target among society of everyone, body modifications can have a negative impact on the younger and pre adult generations through body image, words, and health. Focusing on body image gives men and women the right to do what they please to their own bodies. The only side effect to body image is kids and teenagers, because children look up to actors and models every day. When children see, the person they like on television then that is whom they want their bodies or images to be like. Many people are dissatisfied with their body image every day. According to USA Today (2009)...

...Elizabeth Meushaw English 101 Prof. Wert 3-29-2012 A Simple Ouch Will Suffice Tattoos and piercings are simply very silly. People who have known me for a long time know that I would never ever get any tattoos or piercings other than on my ears. I just saw very little point in ruining one’s body for a “look.” So why, you may ask, am I sitting here with my tongue the size of a golf ball? Well, I have a story to tell I just hope any questions you have will be answered, after I inform you of my experience with my piercing. It all started when I was 8 my sister decided to get her seventh tattoo and brought me along so my parents wouldn’t suspect anything, and instead they simply assumed we were taking a stroll on the boardwalk. As I watched my older sister get some stupid spider forever imbedded into her hip for no apparent reason I questioned her sanity. Everyone was so excited about this and I couldn’t see why it was cool, and I couldn’t see why my parents were so furious about it either. This gave me a terrible brilliant idea. Being the snack lover everyone knows and loves today I always tried to scam my classmates’ lunch money from them; this silly tattoo thing seemed perfect. As soon as I got back to school I started “Elizabeth’s tattoo station” 25 cents a tat! Business was booming I had my sharpie all ready and I was getting everyone, yet I still couldn’t wrap my head around why these stupid kids would pay me to scribble sharpie on their arm, but hey don’t question a working...

A kid to start wearing a bike helmet? An aerosol user to switch? Changing behavior is both art and science, and much can be learned from others’ attempts to change behavior that can make our work more effective. A project team at the Local Hazardous Waste Management Program in King County, Washington, spent several months in 1995 reading behavior change literature from energy conservation, recycling, health education and other fields, looking for insights. We distilled many of the principles found in the literature into workshops for staff, hoping to make their efforts to change business’ and the public’s hazardous waste behavior more effective. At the workshops, we presented some key behavior change principles, a panel shared their insights, and staff worked through an exercise to learn how to apply the principles to their work. This report summarizes our findings and includes examples from field experience. A key insight from the project is that information alone is not enough to change behavior. As government workers, we often try to...

...In my last article I introduced the contemporary form of tattooing as an expression of body art that has hit the mainstream artist community. Today's article addresses body painting, but from an entirely different view. This blog is not necessarily fixated on body art, but when an artist is towed in from the outer realms of expression by as unique as interpretation as demonstrated by the work of Johannes Stötter it merits further attention. A true artists sees beauty and creativity everywhere. So it goes with the now famous artist Johannes Stötter's living body of work. No doubt you have seen many of his undertakings on the internet, especially social media where most have gone viral. Stötter uses human bodies to paint and create his images of mind bending illusions. He sees the world unambiguously, and that is what places him and his work center stage with the rest of the fine art community. His vision includes incorporating natural designs taken from nature and the human body. He will use models covered in vegetables or fruit fashioned to seamlessly blend into one another. You cannot immediately detect where the fruit or the vegetation starts and the human begins. You have likely seen a few of his more famous pieces which include a series of amphibians that are actually human bodies. Each model is painted with outstanding, precise camouflage bringing it all together as a whole. Born in South Tyrol, Italy he honed his talents wandering the countryside of the...

Employers are starting to see the results of how hiring tattooed employees affects their business.

Often times these tattoos of self-expressing art tell stories about the person who adorns the design. Ranging from...

...Getting Waisted: The Dangers of Corset Training Link: http://www.ebony.com/style/getting-waisted-the-dangers-of-corset-training-897#axzz3YRmUiZPq In the article, “Getting Waisted: The Dangers of Corset Training,” by Jamie Harrison, he examines corset training, which is more commonly called “waist training.” This article provides background information for waist training and its popularity. Harrison discusses the waist training’s popularity among celebrities. This popularity is due to the corset like structure that tends to shave inches and pounds off of women. Although corset training may be popular, he disagrees with the effectiveness of corset wear. Harrison discusses the negative effects that waist training has on women’s health. These negative effects can range anywhere from temporary discomfort and fainting, to permanent damage to the organs. These negative effects are just a few of the reasons as to why Harrison argues women should not participate in corset training. Harrison identifies three key factors as to why women should not train their waist. He begins by arguing that the positive effects of waist trainers are a hoax and, that they do not work. Harrison supports this stance with Dr. Sharma’s statement, “All you’re doing is compressing your stomach and pushing the fat around instead of getting rid of it.” Dr. Sharma also says body shape is predetermined by genetics. The inches trimmed through corset training are only temporary and will not last without...
