...I take great pride in my individuality . Audience – clothing , flaws Being an individual is easy to want, but hard to attain. Teens nowadays only want to fit in, not to stand out. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines individuality as 'total character peculiar to and distinguishing an individual from others'. Being an individual is described as 'peculiar'. Not many people want to feel peculiar. They want to feel normal, just like everybody else. Individuality is a wonderful thing, though, that can only be accomplished by loving yourself. 'There's room for everybody on the planet to be creative and conscious if you are your own person. If you're trying to be like somebody else, then there isn't.' That quote was said by Tori Amos, and it is so true. There's no room on this earth for another lackadaisical Joe Schmo. When everybody wears the same clothes, has the same hairstyle, talks about the same things, and has the same beliefs, all the kids in the school hallway just blend together into one blob of boredom. That is why individuality is so important. No one wants to live a totally predictable life. No one who hates themselves will be a true individual. If you dislike yourself, why on earth would you want others to dislike you for being diiferent? Someone who loves themselves and embraces their flaws will achieve being an individual. If you are confident about yourself, you can feel comfortable standing out. You can glow from within, as if saying to the world: Here...

...2 The State Judicial Process The State Judicial Selection Process Have you ever wondered how the judges within your state are chosen? The way a judge is chosen for the state varies from state to state, and there are a few ways they are put on the bench. One way for a judge to be put on the bench is to be appointed by the Governor or state legislature (FindLaw, 2012). A second way to choose a judge is through a merit selection. A merit selection is where a judge is chosen by a legislative committee based on each of the potential judge's performance in the past (FindLaw, 2012). A third way to get a judge on the bench is by a partisan election; in which a judge is selected through partisan elections that are voted in by the electorate, or voters registered to parties, because judges often run as part of a political party affiliate (FindLaw, 2012). A Non-Partisan Election is the final way to get on the bench. This is when the potential judges running for a judicial position in the states can put their names on the ballot, but they do not list their political party affiliates (National League of Cities, 2014). In the state of Florida, judges being elected for a term in the state trial courts of general jurisdiction are elected by way of a nonpartisan election (Carp, Stidham, & Manning, 2014). When judges are being selected for a term in the state courts of last resort, the state of Florida utilizes a merit selection (Carp, Stidham, & Manning, 2014). The length of...

...Special Needs Lora D. Purcell SOC120 Instructor Sue Meckert February 20, 2012 Beginning a new career choice at my age; has been a bit overwhelming. I have had to write many challenging papers. This paper for SOC120 has been especially difficult for me to write. I could not relate to the topics my instructor gave us to choose from, none of them clicked with me. We were given permission to write about any topic, as long it was okay with her. I chose a topic that is very dear and passionate to me, special needs children. That is why it becomes difficult for me to write theory based papers, I write from my heart and tend to forget to add the theoretical points to my paper. I hope to share how my thoughts on the subject of special needs will be informative and will enlighten the reader. Trying to inform the public of the special needs environment is a challenge. People need to be taught how to react and respect them, along with family members that care for them. As it is stated; America is a wonderful melting pot of cultural diversity. I believe that the majority of people are open minded and try to be fair. Something happens, though, when some people come in contact with adults and kids with disabilities. It is understandable to be fearful of the unknown. (1) The community I live in is becoming more aware of how they should react and respond to the special...

...(Date) (Instructors’’ Name) (Unit’s Name) (Date) Cause and Effects of Ethical Decision: A Comparison between two Movies The realities and practicalities of the world present steady suggestions that run through different movies with respect to ethical decisions. Just as business concentrates on efficient ethical decisions models to strike a balance between making profits, satisfying customers, and achieving stakeholder’s needs, movie directors continue to identify the right combinations of ethical decisions that main characters have to follow through their actions and scripts to foster ethical conduct. Ethical decisions made have causes and effects, consequences, framed in context of how a movie with different scripts can achieve its highest-priority themes and guarantee positive ratings. A 2012 film, The Hunger Games, directed by Gary Ross and 2014 film, Divergent, directed by Neil Burger presents two ideal films focusing on the ethical decisions made by the main characters.

...lot of the females do not understand that the celebrities may say to maintain their nice physique they eat healthy. Yet in reality 95% of them either have gone through plastic surgery or some other procedure that will harm their body severely. They are so concerned on competing and being the best one out there that they forget what their body can and cannot handle.

...‘Victorious’ TV soundtrack. “Victorious” (styled as VICTORiOUS) is an American sitcom created by Dan Schneider for Nickelodeon. Dan Schneider is also the creator of other Nickelodeon hit shows such as “iCarly”. “Victorious” was first debuted on March 27 2010. Over the years it has slowly crept into the same line as other hit kids shows such as rivals Disney’s “Wizards of Waverly Place”. “Victorious” and “iCarly” have become the two most internationally famous Nickelodeon shows right now. The series revolves around aspiring singer Tori Vega (portrayed by Victoria Justice), a teenager who attends a performing arts high school called Hollywood Arts High School, after taking her older sister Trina's (Daniella Monet) place in a showcase while getting into screwball situations on a daily basis. This advert takes up half an A4 piece of paper. Looking at the characters, even if the audience don’t know anything about the characters on the show, they can easily tell that “Tori” is the main star of the show, Because of her body language and facial expressions. She stands up quite tall and has her hands placed on her hips. She is also grinning widely and looking extremely pleased with her position in life. She has been positioned in the centre so it is kind of hard to miss her. Also the camera focuses on her, making her the main event. Crowded by her shoulders are her friends, all of them posing in different styles and positions. This may suggest they’re different personalities and moods. Some of...

..."Once the Bleeding Begins, the Healing Can Begin"-Tori Amos www.welcometobarboados.com Oppression is defined as the use of authority or power in a burdensome, cruel and unjust manner. When someone is physically and/or mentally oppressed for having a belief or belonging to an individual group, it can be individually demoralizing and degenerizing. Unfortunatly, The human race has been known to enforce their ability to oppress people through many avenues such as an individual belief in religion, a physical handicap or the way an individual may dress. However, for this essay, I have looked closely at specific females that were oppressed through unequality in specific to their individual race, social heirarchy of power, and sexuality. Unequality between male and female has been seen all over the United States. For example, American females finally were given the right to vote in 1920. In a racial sense, whether male or female, black and white people were segregated in public up until the 1950s. Financial status determined your ranking on the social hierarchy of power granting an individual the ability to have a great influence or to f. dFinancial status was signifigant; higher amounts of incomes meant one had a strong influence in society and respect was demanded. All of which were based on the norms of the time. Currently The United States of America does enforce laws that restrict physical harm onto others and enacted an equal opportunity act, thus enabling all Americans regardless...

...1 Shinto REL/133: World Religious Traditions I 5/21/2014 David Bolton 2 Shinto Shinto meaning “the way of the gods”, is centered upon the relationship between practitioners and a multitude of supernatural entities called kami who are associated with all aspects of life. Being Japan’s major religion alongside Buddhism, Shinto is deeply rooted in the Japanese people and traditions, having no founder and sacred scriptures like the sutras or the bible. Shinto is an optimistic faith, there is no right or wrong, and nobody is perfect. Humans are thought to be fundamentally good and evil is believed to be caused by evil spirits. There are those in the world who reject foreign religions as heresy, and will only believe in their indisputable truth of their own faith. In Shinto, they consider this tendency to be unhealthy in human society. Believing that it is better to learn the good points from all the religions of the world, just as learning from the good actions of our parents, teachers or others in society. Shinto has an openness to foreign religions, even those of a totally different character like Buddhism. By nature, a religion has a tendency to split into several factions due to differences over interpretation...
