“Levi Coffin Describes Margaret Garner’s Attempt to Escape Slavery” is a story about a slave named Margaret Garner, who attempted to escape slavery in the winter of 1856. The story took place in Boone County, Kentucky – a slave state and Cincinnati, Ohio - where slavery is illegal. The author, Levi Coffin, a prosperous Quaker and abolitionist, who was an active leader in the Underground Railroad network that helped thousands of fugitive slaves escape to freedom. He was a religious man and an opponent of African American slavery and felt it was his duty to feed the hungry and clothe the naked, no matter the color of the person. Several years after slavery was abolished in America, Coffin was encouraged by many of his friends to write his memoir of how Margaret Garner was driven to kill her child and attempt to kill her other three children and herself. It is the heartbreaking honesty in this act of brutality which displays what the lives of slaves were like; This shows how far an enslaved mother will go to protect her children from the pain they would endure if taken back to slavery.
In the article, "Many Colleges Have Tanning Salons on or Near Campus; Some Accept Campus Cash," Health Magazine is arguing that even though tanning has been proven to increase the chances of cancer, colleges are promoting tanning. The tanning services being offered are often found on or near college campus's. While this may passively reinforce tanning and harmful nature, as a salon business owner I would put aside the unethical choices, and make decisions in what is best for marketing choices. As I see it promoting this near campus tanning salon movement and using demographic techniques can affect the salon marketing industry in both good and bad ways.
In her article “Tattoos are no longer permanent but removal can be a long and costly business,” Victoria Lambert (2015) explains that tattoos can be removed with laser, an injectable liquid and surgery. However, the process for each option is not only time consuming, expensive, painful, but can also have severe consequences. Lambert points out that most people, a while after they have been tattooed, figure out the useless of their body art, and decide to pay any price to get them removed. He affirms that the laser option, in addition, to being expensive, extensive and painful, can also cause skin disorders with the uncertainty of complete removal. Lambert also claims that another possibility, which is the liquid injectable, is not efficient
“Those who tanned the most—for ten years or more had more than twice the risk of melanoma compared with people who never used tanning beds.”—Martin Weinstock of Brown University of Medicine.

It is that time of the year again, prom season. Teenagers, mostly girls, prepare for weeks prior to this event. People regularly go tanning to make sure they look darker for their special day. A large amount of time, money, and effort goes into getting and keeping tanned skin. In an effort to avoid paleness, people tan to fulfill their need for confidence and beauty. But, everyone seems to avoid thinking about the consequences. Girls want to be tan to have a higher self esteem, even though studies show that tanning is horrible for a person’s health.
Before one can discuss harmful effects of tanning equipment and increased sun exposure, one must be familiar with the components of ultraviolet light and how affects the skin. Sunlight contains two types of ultraviolet (UV) light: UVA and UVB. UVA rays consist of longer wavelengths that penetrate deep into the dermal layer of skin. Limited exposure to UVA rays causes skin to tan; however, most experts agree that overexposure to UVA can lead to other long-term skin damage. UVB rays’ wavelengths are much shorter, affecting the outermost layers of skin. UVB rays are known as the "burning rays" and are considered more dangerous. Tanning beds and sun lamps generally emit 93% to 99% UVA
Applying a sunscreen with a skin protection factor of 15-30, wearing protective clothing such as thin jackets, hats, and sunglasses, and limiting time in the sun when possible are all effective options for protecting your skin against the effects of UV rays. I personally have an olive complexion and have never experienced the effects of sunburn and have often reveled in the tanning effect of time spent in the sun. It is now clear to me that no matter your skin tone, it is crucial to protect yourself from the deeper effects of exposure to UV rays and it is not as simple as using sunscreen to avoid a burn. Additionally, informing others of the significant risk associated with tanning beds is everyone’s responsibility. The risk of melanoma increases by 75% to those who use tanning beds before the age of 35; it is painfully clear that dangers of allowing the benefits of a temporarily dark complexion to outweigh the risks is both irresponsible and
“Indoor tanning under the age of 18 increases your risk of skin cancer by 75%”(Division of Cancer Prevention Ceanter). Over 10,000 people are expected to die this year from UV related causes. However, many people will disregard these facts and continue on with their harmful habits. There are many effects of artificial tanning and prolonged exposure to the sun. Many people have no idea about the risks of prolonged exposure to the sun, how dangerous artificial tanning actually is, or how radiation is not the only harmful trait of indoor tanning.
Illness has always been with humankind since the beginning of time. One of such illnesses that was not named until just recently in history was cancer. Cancer was found to be with mankind from as far back as ancient Egypt, and as of today, now affects people worldwide. There are approximately 5 million people who are treated for skin cancer every year. While there are many reasons as to the ways that skin cancer arises in a person, one of such reasons is the common occurrence of spending time inside a tanning booth. The health risks, consequences, and long term effects of going into a tanning booth can not only affect the duration of that person’s life, but also the quality of living it. Increased users of tanning booths have shown serious health risks, from more diagnoses of skin cancer to

For centuries society has made a tremendous progress towards establishing gender equality but literature and films serve as a constant reminder of the barriers that women faced. In Shakespeare's play “Hamlet” there are only two female characters, both who are meek and submissive to the misogynistic nature of men. In the play, Shakespeare utilizes a less progressive perspective of the roles of women and instead centers the play from a male-point of view. Ophelia and Gertrude are underrepresented and negatively portrayed in the patriarcal Western world. They are characterized as the stereotypical weak, emotional and immobile females.
Imagine going to a tanning salon and asking information on the safety of indoor tanning. The employees tell you that it is safe, in fact, they encourage the use, saying it is good for you.
