RJA #13b: Application Project Plan

For my project I plan to create one or more Journal entries. I want to put myself in the position of the person who is advertising. I want people to be able to see why others advertise sex. In the journal entries I will express how others think of the subject, and the trials and tribulations.

RJA #12a: Annotated Bibliography, Part 3

I have used all of my resources so far

RJA #11: Annotated Bibliography, Part 2

Jessica Blair's paper provides information that is completely relevant. In her work I have a full understanding of what is being states. If I worked on other topics I would use her work, and strongly reccomend others.

This is by far one of the best Institutes that I have found accurate information on. By being able to provide ghraphs helped me visualize the numbers better.It also showed me what difference it made in percentage for each race.

Abma JC was an outstanding website.Here I actually put together different thoughts that I had in my mind. This book helped me with my project more than ever because it focusses on teens.It also provided me information from the early 1990's. JC, Abma.
