'Spanglish' Presentation
.... (hot weather) and picante (hot food). Were as in English is much more concise and efficient and often confusing. The word hot can mean many different things: hot property (stolen), hot body (sexy), hot food (spicy), hot to the touch, hot weather, hot tempered, hot pursuit, hot tip (fresh news), hot air and more.

Zen And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance
.... not its pistil and stamen. I’m more interested in literature and poetry than science and math. I would rather create photographs than dissect a squid.
That having been said, I doubt if any person is strictly one or the other. The classical self in me has taken apart an old camera body, just to see what was in there and how it worked. If it’s something I’m interested in, I like to know everything about it, not just the pretty and exciting part. I would rather try and figure out a computer program than have someone show me how or read me the manual. I’ve tried to find out myself what was making that banging noise in my old c .....

Kwanzaa
.... These seven African values are Umoja (Unity), Kujichagulia (Self-Determination), Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility), Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics), Nia (Purpose), Kuumba (Creativity), and Imani (Faith). These values speak best of what it means to be African.

For example, Hallmark now offers Kwanzaa greeting cards. Fortune 500 corporations like Chrysler take out ads wishing Kwanzaa celebrants good tidings. President Clinton issues .....

Central Theme Of The Upanishads
.... they are essentially dealing with the machinations of the unreal Avidya, which vanishes into "nothing," when the soul is liberated and discovers its identity with the formless and attributeless Brahman. In other words, much of Upanishadic texts are worthless and untrue in the domain of the final reality. On the other hand, a few passages are elevated to decisive importance, as they can be interpreted, in a limited sense, to convey Monism. Anyone who has an acquaintance with the deep and mystical atmosphere conjured up by the Upanishads can not accept this position. The central theme of the Upanishads is not Monism but Monotheism, .....

Egyptian Cuisine
.... bean supplies most of Egypt's people with their daily rations. Ful can be cooked several ways: in ful midamess, the whole beans are boiled, with vegetables if desired, and then mashed with onions, tomatoes, and spices. This mixture is often served with an egg for breakfast, without the egg for other meals . A similar sauce, cooked down into a paste and stuffed into aysh baladi, is the filling for the sandwiches sold on the street. Alternatively, ful beans are soaked, minced, mixed with spices, formed into patties (called ta'miyya in Cairo and falaafil in Alexandria), and deep-fried. These patties, garnished with tomatoes, lettu .....

The ABA had a style of its own. Newsweek once described them, “Sex, drugs, platform shoes, sideburns, slam dunks, midnight franchise shifts, million dollar deferred-payment player contracts, the three-point shot, Dr. J, Marvin (Bad News) Barnes, LaVerne (Jelly) Tart, and Pat Boone. Pro sports the way they oughta be!” They were the complete opposite of the NBA. The NBA was traditional and bori .....

Maroons
.... numerous and made a refuge for slaves escaping from the estates. The military were posted in these territories and were provided with dogs to catch raiders who tried to slip through the defenses of the estates. The Maroons disturbed the peace but did not directly affect estate discipline. There were rebellions on the estates but they were punished by such cruel deaths, burning, hanging and breaking on the wheel that it was sometime before they spread. There were twelve slave rebellions during the eighteenth century in Jamaica; one in 1760 spread to several estates, and sixty Europeans and four hundred Negroes were killed before .....

Animals And Their Purpose
.... transfer where they removed the nucleus from an egg cell, and with an electric pulse fused the denucleated egg cell with a whole cell. The electric pulse also stimulates the egg to start dividing which makes it become an embryo. The embryo is implanted in a surrogate mother. Then it grows in the mother, and there you have it, a perfect clone.
In 1997, scientists have cloned a sheep and named her Dolly. Dolly was also cloned by a nuclear transfer, but some argue that the use of animals in this experiment was wrong, immoral, or inhumane. What if humans had been used for the this experiment instead of animals? Lets find out.

The Lockheed Super Connies, a piston powered plane, were able to cross the Atlantic Ocean with out stopping on the eastbound leg, but they had to stop in Gander, Newfoundland to refuel on the westbound leg. The airlines desired a plane that could easily travel the Atlantic with out a stop. The piston engine just wasn’t going to do it, the jet engine was the answer to the question. Boeing realized this and moved to look for a design for a jet powered plane. At first Boeing was looking to modify existing aircraft wi .....
