.... for tattoo parlors, disease such as Hepatitis C thrive in these environments. Another disease that can be acquired is HIV. The government does not force tattoo parlors to use new needles or to sanitize the old ones. Also, tattoos can get easily infected and leave a scar if not properly taken care of. Sometimes, people die from ink poisoning if too much ink gets into the blood stream. I haven’t even touched on how painful it is to get a tattoo and how painful it will be to obtain a disease. Young adults do not consider the dangers of a tattoo until it is too late. Another problem with getting a tattoo is being underage. Teenagers have to convince their paren ....

.... was for small government, equality, and liberty. He feared the "tyranny of the majority," which he felt would destroy the freedoms of the people. His work, Democracy in America was not to measure the mastery of United States but to look how France could learn from the emerging democracy that was sweeping the west. It is my goal to learn more about this man and even read this book, Democracy in America. Works Cited "Alexis de Tocqueville (1805-1859)." DISCovering Biography. 1999. Galenet. 4 May 1999. .

.... of the Catholic Church. (Craig, Graham, Kagan, Ozment, Turner; The heritage of world civ; pg.493-494) Medieval Europe before the Renaissance had been a fragmented feudal society with an agriculturally based economy, and its culture and dominated by the Church. After the fourteenth century was characterised by the growing national consciousness and political centralisation based on organised commerce and capitalism, along with the secular control of thought and culture. It was in Italy from around the time 1375 to the sack of Rome (1527) that the distinctive features and impacts of the renaissance era are revealed. (Internet 1) Italy having ....

.... developed in the courts of dynasties in the Islamic empire from the 7th century to the 13th century. It flourished during the Umayyad dynasty in the 7th century and 8th century in Syria. Great performers were drawn to Baghdad, now the capital of Iraq, under such rulers as Harun ar-Rashid, who was a patron of the musical arts during the late 700s.3 The cities of the Islamic empire, from Spain across North Africa and throughout the Middle East, boasted many fine musicians. These early musicians were often composers and poets as well as performers. Although the major writings on Arab music appeared after the spread of Islam in the beginning of the 7th century, the music tra ....

.... to remain politically correct in the world's eyes rather than to bring a quick and decisive end to the conflict. This can be seen in the selective bombing of Hanoi throughout the course of the Vietnam War. Politically this strategy looked very good. However, militarily it was ludicrous. War is the one arena in which politicians have no place. War is the military's sole purpose. Therefore, the U. S. Military should be allowed to conduct any war, conflict, or police action that it has been committed to without political interference or control because of the problems and hidden interests which are always present when dealing with politics. United States involvement in the ....

.... Confederation had created problems. One, of which these reasons are, is that it allowed every state one vote no matter how big or small it was. For example, Rhode Island being the smallest state had the same amount of votes as that of New York (being one of the largest states). Also, it stated that every state must ALL agree to pass a law or tax, making it impossible for anything to be passed if one state had any complain over them and the other states all agreed on it. It is evident in Document B that after the Articles of Confederation had been passed, from 1784 and beyond; the gross income from exports to Great Britain had plummeted while the population of the United St ....

.... three colors, yet they are not configured the same way. The flag of the United States has fifty stars and the French flag has three thick bars of color. It is in this way that McBrien relates the flags of the world to Catholicism. The Catholic Church is distinguished from other Christian religions by the configuration of its practices and characteristics. One instance that I read about in the news recently was about a young girl in England who became pregnant. The girl went to her church and told her priest. The priest then referred the girl to the Cardinal of that area. The twelve-year-old girl comes from a family that can barely afford food and clothes, let alone support ....

.... the country was bankrupt. I an effort to raise money England decided to tax the colonists. These taxes included The sugar Act, which taxed all news papers and legal documents. The Stamp Act which was the first internal tax on the colonies. The Towsend acts which was an import tax and led to a boycott by the colonists. The Tea act which gave the East Indian Tea company a monopoly on tea. And The coercive Acts, which led the upper legislative chamber of govtermant to be appointed rather than elected. These laws passed by England made the colonists furious because it took away their rights to choose what kind of tea they liked or pick who they thought fit to be in the ....
