Tattoos Taboo or trendy
Tattoos Taboo or trendy My tattoos; love on the inside of my left wrist, and the crown from the Keep Calm and Carry On posters with KBO (a Winston Churchill catchphrase which stands for keep buggering on) underneath it on the inside of my right ankle. Photo taken by me. Im 28 years old, I have a BA in History and am a semester and a third away from a BA in Communications, Ive never been arrested, never done drugs, and whilst I dont get to Mass every week, I go more often than Christmas/Easter/Holy Days. I also have two tattoos. Tattoos, I might add, that werent just drunken whims. And its not just me a number of my friends have at least one tattoo, and many of those have more than one. It seems like after every semester break, at least a couple people I know at school return sporting new ink. Naturally, this got me thinking about tattoos and how society in general feels about them. So of course I did a little research. In 2009, Pew Research did an end-of-decade survey asking the American public a series of questions about the previous ten years. One of the questions asked pointed out that more people were getting tattoos than in previous decades and asked respondents how they felt about that change. Just 7% said it was a change for the better whilst 45% said the change made no difference and 40% said it was a change for the worse. Earlier that year, CBS News posted a story entitled Tattoos Becoming More Accepted at Work, which cited the statistic that 23% of college students have one to three tattoos and that 36% over a third of adults aged 18 to 29 have them. In 2010, UK newspaper The Guardian reported that a survey indicated that one-fifth of British adults are inked. Another Pew Research study, this one conducted in 2010, aimed to create a portrait of the so-called Millennials generation (those aged 18-29 in 2010). The study puts the percentage of Millennials with tattoos at 38%. By comparison, the study says that 32% of Americans aged 30-45 have at least one tattoo, and then the numbers begin to drop away sharply: of Boomers (aged 46-64), 15% have at least one tattoo, and of those above age 65, just 6% sport ink. Whilst the stigma against tattoos/tattooed individuals appears to be going strong amongst older Americans, amongst those 45 and under there is an increasing tolerance of and even enthusiasm for tattoos. This has significant implications as far as workplace policies regarding tattoos are concerned; if society in general is more accepting of tattoos, it follows that visible tattoos will become less of an issue. That being said, a full 70% of Millennials and 73% of those aged 30 or older said that their tattoos are normally not visible. Early this year, Harris Interactive conducted a new poll regarding tattoos. According to the poll, 21% of U.S. adults report having a tattoo, which is up from previous years. It seems that with the increasing number of adults with tattoos this permanent body art is becoming more accepted fewer people think it is related to deviant behavior than before yet among those without tattoos there are still several negative stigmas associated with having tattoos. All in all, each later poll seems to show an increasing amount of acceptance, or at least ambivalence as opposed to negative reactions, towards tattoos and individuals who have them. Additionally, all of the polls that ask people with tattoos if they regret getting them, a large majority (as high as 84%) said that they do not. It seems, then, that tattoos might still be taboo with older generations, but they are increasingly trendy amongst younger generations, especially college-aged individuals. If you are considering getting a tattoo, I have a few pieces of advice. Plan what you want, where on your body you want it, and where in the world youre going to get it beforehand. Do your research, especially about tattoo shops and artists in your area. You want to find somewhere that is clean, safe, and friendly. And if youre going to have their work on your body for the rest of your life, you want your tattoo artist to be someone whose work you admire. Dont get tattooed when you are drunk, and if youre getting tattoo number one its probably a good idea not to do it on a whim. Most importantly, though, do everything you can to make sure that youll be in that 84% of tattooed individuals who dont have any tattoos they regret.

Visual and Auditory Learners - Tutor Hunt Blog
Visual and Auditory Learners Visual and auditory learners - have these categories been debunked? Visual and auditory learners - have these categories been debunked?SchoolsPeople are commonly classified as being either visual or auditory learners. If you are a visual learner you will understand information with greater ease through the medium of pictures, including graphs, charts, maps and diagrams. If you are an auditory learner your learning will be facilitated through the spoken word. The prevalent opinion in the education sector is that 40% of us are visual learners - this goes for both adults and children, and that 30% of people are auditory learners, with the remaining 30% being kinaesthetic learners. Kinaesthetic learners are thought to gain understanding through physical activities, or manipulating models. The belief that children fall into different learning categories has been around for many decades, but it wasn`t until the early 1990`s, when the New Zealander cognitive scientist Neil Fleming proposed the VAK/VARK model, that the different learning groups were properly codified. The actual science behind these different categories of learning has however been recently challenged. Scientists from the universities of California and St. Louis have recently published a paper in the Journal of the Association for Psychological Science, that says there is little actual robust evidence to suggest matching the mode of teaching to people`s preferred style helps them to learn any better. The study points out that more than three decades of academic literature, along with hundreds of studies, have yielded no evidence to suggest matching the method of teaching to a child`s mode of learning facilitates their understanding. The study suggests that the learning categories themselves have simply come out of earlier theories, some going back to Carl Jung`s work of the 1960`s. It is not uncommon for theories to come about this way, growing out of earlier studies; but whereas in the empirical sciences, especially mathematics and physics, this can lead to great discoveries, in the social sciences it can give credence dubious conjectures - neuromyth`s like we only use 10% of our brains. The study, entitled Learning Styles: Concepts and Evidence, casts doubt over the idea that different learning styles even exist, proposing that humans have a tendency to categorise and simplify, a natural urge to put people into groups. `It seems that the idea of finding out ``what type of person one is`` has some eternal and deep appeal.` `It is also natural and appealing to think that all people have the potential to learn effectively andeasily if only instruction is tailored to their individual learning styles.` Learning itself is a mysterious process - how does the brain store information, and are we fundamentally changed as a person when we learning something new? Despite an abundance of clinical data, the human brain refuses to give up most of its secrets. It seems to be made up of nothing but interconnecting nerves, and totally lacks any kind of mechanised microstructures. The kidney has the bowman capsule, a device that encourages filtration; the heart has valves, that ensure the force of its contractions pump blood in the right direction. The brain seems to lack any kind of demarcated structures. There are nerves, and there are areas where these nerves interconnect with other nerves. These connections, called synapses, can alter - they can change their `degree` of connectivity, encouraging or inhibiting the flow of charge. This malleability, this manner of making new connections, must be in some way linked to learning. Different parts of the brain appear to have localised functions, se em to be specialised towards certain roles. There is a small part of the left cerebral hemisphere called the Broca`s area, which appears to associated with language. Patients with injuries to this area may lose the ability to speak, or understand the written word. There are visual and auditory cortexes, sectors of the brain that seem to process sensory data from the eyes and ears. Of course we all have differing levels of ability - one person may have an ability for music, while another may be gifted at drawing. This truism does not however mean that there are associated learning categories - that a person who is musically gifted will learn best via the spoken word, or that a child who enjoys painting will learn best through diagrams, and other visual representations. 21 months ago0Add a Comment

What Is a Radical in Chemistry?
What Is a Radical in Chemistry?When I first learned about radicals, I was amazed that someone would be talking about them. I thought that they were the guys who just threw things at people when they pissed them off or stood around talking while cars went by on the freeway. But then I learned that radicals were actually used in science for their positive effects on the body and not just for messing with people. You can use them to reverse hair loss, improve skin tone, stop premature aging, improve cardiac health, treat skin cancer, treat cell damage, treat neurological disorders, help prevent wrinkles, and even help in certain types of strokes.In order to understand how to utilize radicals, you have to understand what it is. A radical is simply a molecule or group of molecules that are broken down into smaller molecules or ions by another molecule. That is the definition in plain English. If two different molecules (or even a single molecule) want to break down into smaller molecules, they will do so through the action of a radical.For example, light therapy uses light to stimulate the collagen and elastin in the skin to grow back faster. The light causes this growth and then the process is reversed with a laser. Both of these treatments, using light to stimulate the growth of cells and the use of a laser to reverse that growth, both use radicals to do their job. These are not just any old molecules though, as there is a process involved.What makes radicals such an important part of modern day medicine is that they are so effective. They are usually antioxidants or scavengers that work inside the body and are broken down to smaller molecules by the liver and kidneys. They are the ideal 'work horse' of the body. They can flush out the toxins that our bodies store in our tissues, our muscles, and in our organs. They also clean up cells break down proteins and produce some antioxidants.When a person has a disease that is causing abnormal deposits in the body, he or she will benefit from having a high intake of antioxidants in their diet. However, our body may not be able to produce enough antioxidants to achieve this, and this is where radicals come in. The theory behind using a strong antioxidant in your diet to help keep cells healthy is that it will stimulate more production of antioxidants and when the body has more of these molecules, it will be able to release them from the cells more quickly.If you take too much, the body may over stimulate and make you very sick, but if you take the correct doses, you will actually get better from the higher dose of antioxidants. It's like a cycle, but it goes on forever. When the antioxidant levels go down in the body, the radical levels increase and then your cells are able to function again and fight off more pathogens and other diseases.Radicals are becoming more important to the people of today. It seems that there is no end to what they can do to make our bodies healthier. If you are interested in knowing more about the ways that radicals can benefit your health, you should take a look at the latest book that I am talking about and make sure that you are checking out the book before you purchase it.
