BODY MODIFICATIONS1) The photo shows that tattoos create steorotypes, because this picture represent a person with a little kid and he is expressing his felling, showing with this action to the people that the body modifications do not change character.
 
 
2)Society is afraid of people that have a tattoo, the people create an infinity number of ideas about their life's and they begin to invent gossip of them. The people use to think that this people are bad and rebel. In the case of the Maori's culture They have  different type of tattoo´s  with elaborate designs , because this represent  marks of  status . In this country (New Zealand) have a lot of respect of this culture and they don't have any prejudgement.
 
 
3)People think that tattooing is a way of represent their culture, ethnic or religious heritage . Also represent fashion and culture in the actuality, according to ( http://englishblogof2013.blogspot.com/ )Also another important fact that is very relevant to the people that have tattoo's, is that this gives them the opportunity to express themselves in any way that they want, so this would be benefict to their esteem.
 
4) Tattoos most of the time is not considered an art, because this can be ugly according of the people thinking and also they have a prejudice formed. They does not accept them because these tattoos that they have for the people not represent traditions or art only something disgusting.


Conclution:

tattoos definitely represent more than a fashion, this is also history, culture, traditions and feelings of people. This work helped me to realize that I dont have to copy and paste things of enthernet without put where I search the information. Finnally I learn the most important, the true meaning of tattoos.

Custom & traditions

'Tattoos go beyond art fashion; they reflect deep-rooted cultural and ethnic heritage'

I agree with this motion , In my whole life I have traveled to many countries of the world and I haverealized that tattos are symbolic of rich culture histories.

A good example is the Maori culture of New Zealand , They have tattoo´s in their face with elaborate designs , which serve as marks of high status . Each tattoo design is unique to the individuals.
Another example is the case of the Polynesian cultures they have developed elaborate geometric tattoos over Thousands of years . 

Also the warriors had tattoos of weaponry , while women were given tattoos of various work tools.
In Africa various culture groups employ tattoos as symbols too . Berber tribes in Algeria , Tunisia and Libya . Women in Africa Also use to tattoo Their faces , hands, and ankles with symbols marking Their ethnic identity .

Teardrop Tattoo
Until tattoos have come to define certain people as the Prison Tattoo Culture which is a teardrop tattoo is mostly associated with prisoners , gangsters , thugs , suffering or loss of a loved one. This usually teardrop tattoo symbolize gang membership . Teardrop tattoos in prison signify the number of murders that the user has on your criminal record . It is a tattoo that was also signed by five years of hard suffering time a person has served in prison . teardrop tattoo may also indicate that the person has killed someone in his / her life in and out of prison. Although teardrop tattoos have multiple meanings , most teardrop tattoos we see on today's dominant culture implies that the wearer has killed someone .

Of the good and bad things mentioned I can safely say that for me and for many people tattooing is a way of honoring the culture, ethnic or religious heritage . Although I have to admit that it can also represent fashion and culture in the actuality but the tattoo's are just 'Art and Fashion '? the answer would be no.

Bithday in Jamaica

August 10, 2013


Dear Diary,

Tonight was amazing, my days have been fabulous in Jamaica, but today was special because it was my 16th birthday!  

The family who host me prepared to me a birthday spectacular where I was covered in flour, then we celebrated with a dance party with reggae music, at midnight we shared a birthday cake and other food and they sang the birthday song call Miss Lou to me.


Clearly this country is full of beautiful traditions and contagious happiness, I want to stay a while longer but unfortunately I have to come back tomorrow morning to my country, I will always remember this as a unique and wonderful experience. 

Faithfully,
Franco

Environment Disaster Warming

Disaster warming, a problem to consider

Franco Paredes, Staff Reporter
Wed May 8, 2013

New York- Yesterday in the United States, the company Rutherford was reported for seriously contamination to the environment, they was throwing debris and causing dangerous global warming, that affect all of us.

Rutherford is a company characterized for producing a nuclear weapons and biochemical dangerous experiments. They are the most important company of weapons in the United States that generate millions of earnings every year. They have a lot of prestige, but yesterday with this new their prestige fell down drastically. this for everyone including myself is very disappointing because our trust in the company has lost.

Social Responsibility is very important fact that every company must have, such as care for the environment, also de proper treatment to the workers and do things to the society, but in the last days a worker of this company say something very controversial about that "This company its not ethical, they do what they want, use his utilities to win more money and not for the environmental disaster that they are creating´´, so after read these phrases I can get to the conclusion that this company is not acting correctly and they are letting down all they buyers.
Rutherford company will lose money, because the expectative generated by publicity, newspaper, will affect the demand curve.

To conclude is important to mention that people are very worried about this contaminating issue and they are doing all the things possible to solved that, for example protest, debates,  and more activities to help our world. Also the president of the Unites States say: "All together we have to help our environment, the world is everything that we have, so if we destroyed, the human will disappear.
