outside reading aboration

Abortion-

I was reading this article on the pros and cons on abortion and it made me realize that aboration is a good and a bad thing.
Abortion is a good and bad thing, it is necessary to an certain extent. Me personally is against abortions if there is no solid reason to have one. I think if a women wants to have an abortion she should have a solid reason to have one. The reasons I think that a women should have a abortion is if she had gotten raped or would cause the female and medical hazard to her or the baby or is unstable/ unfit to have a baby. I really don’t see any reason for abortions if there is adoptions , there is so man y families looking for children out there so why do you need to have an abortion knowing that your child could have a good home if you cant take care of it or your not ready for it. I say anything and everything you do in your life has consequences so if you take the time to lay in the bed you have to deal with the consequences.

race ???????????

I was just on google and i was looking up articles on race and i came across this article called Katrinas hidden race war. i read it and as i read it, i realized that it was really good article and it spooke alot of truth that most people like to deny. The article was about a black male who was walking through the heat of katrina and gets shot by three white males and they kept shooting and they said " get them get them niggers". He got shot in the neck and his two cousin who were trying to help him got shot to, but luckliy they survived but the guy who got shot in the neck lost his vision. Algiers Point was the only town in New Orleans that survived the flood but was a largly white, and the white people in the Algiers point. knew that all the people would come run to the town to get away from the flood so they got all the togther mainly white males and got there shot guns and even a uzi out potrolled the town because they didnt want anybody to come over to their town ( potrolling for african americans)and if they did they shot at them. They are still investigating and still have no proscuters. I find that very odd.
You would think that racism would be over by know cause it is 2009, but it is not their are people out there who are sick enough to kill another human,hate and torture. I find that really crazy. Before i read this i had a thought that racsim was slowly getten solved and ppl were growing up an realizing that we are all humans no matter what color we are or where we come from. I learned that there is still some people out there that just dont get it at all and we just have to live with it i guess we cant do nothing about it, its not our jobs to change the world even though if i could i would make those people out there understand that we ALL ARE THE SAME no matter what our skin color is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Over all it was a good article and i liked reading it even though it was sad.

outside reading Does my head look big in this? by Randa Abdel-Fattah

I am reading this book called Does by head look big in this By Randa Abdel-Fattah. So far i am in chapter four, from what i read so far it is really good. It is about a young Australian-born-muslim-Palestinian-Egyptian-chocoholic gurl. When she was little she went to a private catholic school even though she was Muslim, then middle school she went to a private islamic school but she didnt go there for her sophmore and junior and senior year because the islamic school she went to couldnt afford to keep on adding on to the grades because there was no funding. So her and mom and dad moved to some suburbs in Australia and she went a private prep school. she hated it there because they were so judgemental. So over spreak break she decided to be a full-time muslim by wearing the hijab full time, but she was second gueesing herself because she didnt know how ppl would treat her at her school they alredy look at her weird and gossip about her. In the end she decided to wear the hijab to school. so far i like the book it is intresting and i cant wait to read more and to find out ppls reactions.

outside ( school uniforms)

I read this article on why or why not schools should have school uniforms. Before reading this article i use to think that have uniforms was a bad thing but. It is actually a good thing that when schools have uniforms because. Not everybodys famlies makes the same amount of money. Uniforms makes the school enviorment more equall. Uniforms also makes life a little bit easier because you dont have to worry about what shirt goes with what jeans and wht not. I use to think that i would never go to a school that you would have to wear a uniform but know i wouldnt mind at all.

Women Doctors (Fearless)

Why are women doctors heros? Women doctors are heros because they show that not only men are cappable of being doctors. That women can do what ever a man can do. Women doctors are an insipration to young girls out there. It shows that any women can do what ever they want as long as they set their mind to it and try hard. To make sure that young girls recognize the first women doctors they have artifacts and diaries and personal stories to look at.

This picture is a black female doctor. This picture shows young gurls that they could do anything as long as they try, no matter of your skin color and your ethnic backround. This picture also gives young gurls the insipriation to try even harder in school.

PIONEERING DOCTORS: WOMEN OF THE PAST
By NADINE BROZAN
Published: January 20, 1986
The sign above the trellised arch reads, ''Send Us a Lady Physician,'' and beyond it photographs and drawings of 20 women, the members of the class of 1879 at the Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania, hang in a gazebo. Overhead, the recorded voice of Dr. Clara Marshall, their professor, addresses them at commencement. She urges them to ''seek and take advantage of opportunities - despise no opening wedge, however small.''
All this is part of an innovative exhibition on ''Women Doctors in America: 1835-1920'' that opens today at the New York Academy of Medicine, 2 East 103d Street.
At the beginning of the 85 years encompassed by the show, there were no women in medicine. By the turn of the century, there were more than 7,000. Unbidden and unwelcome at first, they battered down the barriers keeping them out of medical schools, hospitals and professional societies. Then, as acceptance seemed complete, they slipped back onto the sidelines for almost half a century.
Although not the only focal point of the show, the class of 1879 runs through it as a theme, exemplifying the success achieved by women of the time. The show includes architectural renderings of the kinds of buildings in which women practiced medicine; pictures, newspaper clippings, implements from their offices and artifacts from their homes, and taped readings from their letters, diaries and other documents.
It follows the class from school days into the members' professional practices and affiliations, their homes and families, their activities in social reform and egalitarian causes. It also has sections on six pioneers, including Mary Putnam Jacobi, who paved women's way into medicine and who faced far more profound forms of discrimination, and on the more than 100 black women in 19th-century medicine.
Ruth J. Abram, former director of the Women's Action Alliance, said that the project began ''when I decided to search for a female professional role model, and I disovered quite by accident that there was a 19th-century woman doctor in my own family, Sarah Alice Cohen May.''
Determined to write a book on her great-grandaunt, to whom she was related through her father, Morris Abram, the former president of Brandeis University, she wrote to her relatives but found that her aunt had left almost no information behind. But she did become deeply interested in the doctor's classmates in the class of 1879 at the Philadephia college and got in touch with their descendants. After extensive research, she realized that she had enough material not only for a book - it is being published this week by W. W. Norton & Company - but also for an exhibition. She also realized she had stumbled on a surprising chapter in women's history.
''I had expected to find misery, loneliness and ostracism at every turn,'' she said. ''Instead I found that they had been enormously successful.''
Although not subject to the scorn and discrimination their predecessors faced, they did not have automatic entry into medicine. Denied places in mainstream organizations, they formed their own medical schools with women as teachers, their own clinics and hospitals, their own medical societies. A Ready Market
They were helped by the values of the time, which gave nurturing high regard, and by the perception of women as better nurturers than men. So they were deemed in some ways to be more competent to heal. There was also a ready market for their services, because many women of that era would suffer any illness rather than consult a man. In addition, medicine was largely practiced from the home, so women were able to be physicians without sacrificing the roles of wife or mother.
They were also social activists, in particular for the causes of temperance, peace and child care. ''They didn't say they were too busy with their careers to be involved,'' Miss Abram said. ''Rather, they saw involvement as their God-given duty and felt they had been put on the earth to improve it.''
At the end of the century, two major medical schools, Johns Hopkins and Cornell, decided to admit women, and soon 17 of the 19 all-woman institutions disappeared.
What had been seen as progress -assimilation into mainstream medicine - turned out to be the end of the women's medical movement for several decades. ''The numbers and percentages of women physicans of the 19th century would not be recouped until the 1950's,'' Miss Abram said. ''They would not be surpassed until the 1970's.''
Historians have many theories on the reasons for the decline, she said, enumerating some of them. Medicine changed from primarily a healing art to a scientific pursuit, and women, not wanting to lose their humanitarian work, went into nursing and social work instead. Fees for medical education soared.
She said she hoped the exhibit ''raises the question of whether we can take for granted the gains we have made today.''
''Our 19th-century forebears believed they would bequeath their gains to their daughters and their granddaughters,'' she said, ''and they were wrong.''
Correction: February 6, 1986, Thursday, Late City Final Edition
A caption on the Style page on Jan. 20, with an article about women who pioneered as physicians, omitted picture credits and misidentified the school attended by Mary Putnam Jacobi. She was graduated from the Female Medical College of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia in 1864. In 1867 it became the Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania and is now the Medical College of Pennsylvania. Dr. Jacobi's photo was provided by the Schlesinger Library of Radcliffe College. The two other photographs came from the Archives and Special Collections on Women in Medicine of the Medical College of Pennsylvania.
This article is about female doctors - This article gives us young girls the inspiration that we could do anything we want in life as long as we set our minds to it and try. We will achive our goals in life no matter what anybody says or does.

The muslim faith ( out side reading )

After reading such a article i have learned that the muslim faith belives in life after death. Even though i am muslim i had no clue that we belive in in life after death. And i found it really intersting that the christan relgion and the muslim faith have the same prhophets but just diffrent roles. I also find it really intresing that one billion of the worlds population is muslim. After reading this article i never knew we had a torah in the muslim faith i knew we had the Holy Quran . I got this article from this website- www.islam101.com/faith/index.htm

ME

The adjetive i picked is "caring" because that best decribes me. I would probably be the first person to help someone up if the fell or got hurt. I love to help people when they need . One day i was walking and this old lady was walking and she had lots of bags and she dropped them . And i helped her and walked her home and helped get her bags to her apartment. I am just the kind of person who love to help people. The people i care for the most is my famliy and friends, most of my famliy thinks i act like a mom because i am such a caring person . Caring is just something I am and something that is just within me. I just love helping others and caring for them.
