.... introduced surfing to the United States in 1912 (Weir3). If you asked someone who is the father of surfing, they would probably say, "Duke who?" But mention Kelly Slater and they will not stop talking. Robert Kelly Slater was born February 11, 1912 in Cocoa Beach Florida (Tomlin1). He went to high school and actually graduated. The reason I say this is because most people like Kelly (surfers knowing they are going to go professional) never graduate high school. Kelly grew up in Florida all his life. He was a local hero in central Florida, because everyone knew he was destined to make it as a professional surfer (Tee Interview). From 1992 thru 199 .....

.... a novel by Cynthia Voigt. "If there's one thing I can't tolerate Pete agreed "it's an uppity nigger."2 We can see that Bullet, a cross country runner is talking to a team-mate named Pete. It is indisputable that Pete has some antagonism towards blacks. He treats them with very little respect and uses the racist term "nigger." This helps to justify that blacks are treated with considerably less appreciation than other races of people. Let us also look at the fact that blacks are often socially outcasted because of their race. We see this in The Runner. "You're telling me you won't work with him because he's a negro?" "That's right."3 As we c .....

.... OF SPEECH, OR OF THE PRESS; OR OF THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE PEACEABLY TO ASSEMBLE, AND PETITION THE GOVERNMENT FOR A REDRESS OF GRIEVANCE. When you censor music that could be considered a violation of constitutional rights. Many states have introduced a “harmful to minors law�, this is supposed to protect children from explicated lyrics and recordings with no artistic value. This law is for songs like Ice-T’s Cop Killer, which is supposed to be the reason kids kill cops. Although, the Arts Censorship Project says, “ no direct link between anti-social behavior and exposure to the contents of any form of artistic expression has ever been scien .....

.... instead of using the money and aid to stay alive while they look for a job, they are sitting at home waiting by the mailbox for the next check to come in. In the meantime, many mothers are having more kids, because-more kids, more welfare money. These women relish the thought of getting free money in the mail-for doing absolutely nothing. Welfare is destroying out culture. Many argue that welfare is necessary for many families, and that it must not be cut. Some argue that it is giving starving families the boost they need to make it one more year. This is only partially true. Yes, we need welfare, but we also need to limit the amount of time .....

.... and hence mar their character when they resort to violence. Examples of such men are rapist and abusive husbands or boyfriends. Then there are those who appreciate women to the point where one just is not enough.

These 'casanovas' are good abiding Christians, as they strongly believe that when Jesus s .....

.... saying "You do not fit in with us so leave us alone" its a nasty feeling. Some people let others down easy and that is nice of them. Why is it so hard to fit in? There is so much social pressure now that it is getting harder and harder to "fit in". When I say social pressure I mean how to act, look, sound, walk, and so on. Clothes play a very important role in fitting in with the crowd. People say that a first impression is the most important one so people try to make the best first impression by dressing up or showing someone there not. Some people try to stay in fashion, they do this to stand out or be noticed. A huge role in fitting in is ch .....
