... among themselves seemed to make him tense. Johnson complains to his boss that his legs ache from being on them all day and he is not able to get enough rest to make his legs feel better.

As soon as he is at the coffee urn to receive a cup of coffee the whit ...
... The child could not be made amenable to rules. Hester even remarks to herself, "Oh Father in heaven – if thou art still my father – what is this being which I have brought into the world" (Hawthorne 89)? Pearl would harass her mother Piyasena/Pine 2 over the scarlet "A" she wore. In time, Hester was subjected to so much ridicule from Pearl and others that she was forced into seclusion. Pearl represents the sins of both Hester and Dimmesdale. Pearl is said to be the direct consequence of sin (Martin 108). Their sins include lying to the people about the affair that led to Pearl. Hester realizes what Pearl represents when she does not hold ...
... be created from one egg. These 11,000 identical brothers and sisters become a "Bokanovsky group". Each embryo is then bottled, labelled and sent down the conveyor belt to the "Social Predestination Room". It is here that they are given a caste designation (Alpha, Beta, Delta, Epsilon), carded into the main card index and stored. It is here that they are "sexed". Thirty percent of the female embryos are allowed to develop normally (to maintain the supply of initial ova). The rest of the female embryos are given a large dose of male hormone that renders them structurally female in all ways, but sterile. It is also here that their caste designation determines how muc ...
... she first entered the play, Blanche was portrayed as a beautiful, young woman from a rich background. She wore expensive garments and flaunted her array of fur pieces even while in the Kowalski home. Calling him "common" and "Polack", Stella immediately created an enemy of Stella's husband, Stanley. It became apparent that Blanche was hiding something from her sister when she spoke of losing their home estate, Belle Reve, and did not offer an explanation. Her job as a teacher was also a topic that was discussed, but Blanche offered only that she was taking a break. The illusion of having a high-class lifestyle marked the beginning of Blanche's alternating self- ...

... Even if they had a great harvest on the cocoons, there would not be enough people to spin the silk. They were never be able to get out of debt. It is amazing how they managed to survive under such poor economy. Things such as predicting harvest by the amount of sprouts that a garlic put out, the way they isolated Lotus believing that she would bring bad luck to them just because her family had a bad harvest, and Huang's interest in Taoism, they were all somehow reflection of Mao's affection. Just around the same period of time, he has been encouraging the peasants for abandoning the worship of Gods and rejecting Buddhism. T'ung Pao hated the foreigners. Since they ...
... Parents can influence how their children behave, feel, and act towards the outside world. If a child is brought up with hatred, anger and even violence, they can learn to view the world in a highly negative way, by being dangerous and prejudice towards others. However if a child is brought up with caring and nourishment, they can learn to see the world from all different points of views and angles. Atticus raises his children with love and care, and teaches them to consider all angles of a situation before they judge someone; "You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view"... "Until you climb into his skin and walk a ...
... or to emphasize speech.” Some gestures might suggest an emotion or expression a person feels. For example, if a person clenches his or her hands, it might mean that the person is mad or angry.

If students are really bored or tired, they might put their elbow on the desk and their hand on their cheek. Another example of hand gestures is the middle finger. People use the middle finger when they are mad or angry. For instance, if I were driving and someone cut me off, then I would give them the middle finger. It might not be right, but I expressed my feelings t ...
