... year old Trinity College student remarks about Bob Dole, I think he is making himself look older by speaking about certain issues we (young people) can not relate to. When asked to give an example the student stated, "he made a reference to World War I, I thought he was going to say he fought in that one too!" (www.mtv.com/chooseorlose). While Bob Dole is a isolated instance, many youthful voters feel that there is a ever growing distance between them and the older generations. Another reason that young people are turning away is lack of education towards politics. While this could be said for any age group, it seems to be more prevalent in younger people. The li ...
... across something that was new to everyone…transporting information from one computer to another. This breakthrough in technology lead to the greatest invention known to man. However when the Internet was discovered it wasn't perfect. It was slow and it didn't seem to be that big of a deal, but steps were made in the right direction to perfect such a thing. Now days we have networks, modems, servers and much more to provide us easy, quick access to almost everything. However now days its gotten out of hand there are pedophiles who display child porn on the internet, there are companies that allow you to buy their product over the internet which can be then ...
... A huge element of thinking is taking from what you already know and deciding how it applies in different situation. School makes you do this, but television does not. Michael and Sheila Cole, sociologist, say that “Children socialized to learn from television had lower than normal expectations about the amount of mental effort required to learn from written texts, and tended to read less and perform relatively poorly in school.”(Development of Children 24) Which means that it takes very little effort to follow a television show and kids are raised on television believe that it takes less effort to learn from television rather than ...
... should recognize the dynamic interaction of communities and cultures that comprise contemporary America, as well as the world. Reflecting on this interaction, the university should change its curriculum and campus environment because campus climates ultimately influence the effectiveness of a diverse democracy and, therefore builds a mutually respectfully community. There could be reasonable objections to diversifying the campus here at UT, but the major philosophy is to expand our knowledge of other cultures and to explore opportunities that will benefit the students when identifying with other ethnic backgrounds. In part, one concern that could arise ...
... skin tissue. A ‘fit' internal body is defined by blood pressure, resting metabolic rate, and well working organs according to an ideal model based on height and weight. A ‘fit' external body can be defined as a mesomorph body type which includes hard and tight skin tissue, well-developed muscles, and strong bones. All of these features lead to a more shapely body and an upright posture. Keeping in mind the definitions of ‘fit' and ‘feminine' I will now explore Lenskyj's ‘commercialized fit' and my distinction between ‘being fit' and ‘looking fit'. Helen Lenskyj's article Women, Sport, and Sexuality explores the commercialization of the ‘fit' body. S ...
... that were features in Clemens novels were social injustices and social criticism; and his views on government. “The rain…falls upon the just and the unjust alike; a thing which would not happened if I were superintending the rains affairs. No, I would rain softly and sweetly on the just, but if I caught a sample of the unjust outdoors I would drown him” (World Literature 3721). In the novel The Prince and the Pauper, Clemens was able to underscore some of the social follies and injustices of his own time without actually having to attack them directly in the novel. Clemens did this by satirically treating the social and legal conventio ...
... The construction exhibited nothing more than a fort and mansion combined. Sadanori Akamatsu maintained the security for the area. "230 years later Hideyoshi Toyotomi designed the basic layout for the castle including a three-storied tower." (www.yahoo/himeji/castles/bin.com) Secondly, technology used in building the castle separates this castle from others of the time period. A man named Terumasa Ikeda appointed Tadashige Igi to the role of general magistrate for the construction of Himeji Castle. Igi organized many staffs such as, manager of engineering works, manager of construction works, and many others. Nawabari became a vital point of castle constructio ...
... makes firearm ownership legal in this country. There were good reasons for this freedom, reasons which persist today. Firearms in the new world were used initially for hunting, and occasionally for self-defense. However, when the colonists felt that the burden of British oppression was too much for them to bear, they picked up their personal firearms and went to war. Standing against the British armies, these rebels found themselves opposed by the greatest military force in the world at that time. The 18th century witnessed the height of the British Empire, but the rough band of colonial freedom fighters discovered the power of the Minuteman, the average America ...
... problem which worries me more than I have ever thought a simple article could be able to do to me. As the author of this revelation piece, Aldo Leopold (1966), stated in his article, that we need to change our “human role from conqueror, to a member of the land community”. This is vital for the future existence of an Earth that is habitable and non-toxic. Many people claim that they have ethics in their work place, or in general life practices. I have yet, however, had the pleasure of seeing many people proclaiming their ethics about the treatment of this planet. I have yet to see a serious and unwavering campaign to stop placing ourselves so high ...
... as though he butchered his victim with no goal in mind, but to the keen eye it is the work of a genious. When the best known detective agency in the world, Scotland Yard, fails to catch a serial killer it scares the city, nation, or even the world. The world would have a problem of its own in the 1940's: The Ill Reich. Adolf Hitler was a man of great power. This man had developed his power on his own. He was very manipulative and creative and used his wit to gain power among the Germans. Hitler went from an low ranking infantry man to the leader of the country by his own intellectual talent. He had many followers, even though he was just an ordinary murderer. ...
