Sexually transmitted
diseases: How can we protect ourselves?
In contemporary western society, everyone is
exposed to sex: it’s generally considered OK to have sex;
it’s certainly OK to talk openly about sex, even in the mass
media. Only 50 years ago, a regular American TV show could
show a bedroom scene only if it included two separate beds,
and it could not show two people in any degree of intimacy.

Got
sunscreen?
Summer might be over, but in Hawai‘i, people can
be active outside all year long. Sunlight makes people feel
as if they are full of energy. However, while having fun in
the sun, people may forget the most important thing, that is,
to put on their sunscreen.

To
be or not to be - an accountant
Would you invest your time and at least $10,000
more for a fifth year in college in order to make less after
you graduate? This is what accounting students have to do since
a new law went into effect January 1, mandating the State of
Hawai‘i Board of Accountancy apply the “150 credit hours” educational
requirement before allowing anyone to take the Certified Public
Accountant (CPA) exam.
