Unique Cultures Of The World
.... popular than rice, unlike in southern China. Mongol cuisine has influenced Peking greatly. This is made obvious in the way that this region’s people use mutton and lamb more than in other regions. Without a doubt, the one dish that has escaped from Peking’s borders and captured the imagination of people through out the world is Peking duck. In fact, the ducks for this meal are often raised and fattened especially for the meal.
On the eastern side of China is Shanghai, which covers the area of the Kiangsu, Chekiang, and Anhwei. These provinces enjoy a temperate climate, fertile land, and have many fresh water sources for the agri .....

Communism
.... ideas and writings.
So then I thought, why isn't communism an effective government? Then I thought that since communism was derived from logic and science, it must not have human nature factored into its fragile equation. Well then I looked at the Russian Government and thought about what led to its downfall. Then I remembered the corrupt government and the lack of food. In addition the unmotivated work force and the crime rate, all of these reasons led to the fall of the Russian Government.
The Communist government in Russia was a very corrupt government. Some government officials gave themselves high salaries and large hou .....

Mark Schaller's Study About Fame
.... sometime during their period of fame. Each of the three were also writers which was a vital part of Schaller's study. Schaller wanted to show that fame increased the self-consciousness in each of these people. To do this he analyzed the songs and stories written by these authors and found an increase in the amount of first-person singular pronouns from before to after their achievement of fame.
According to Phillip L. Ackerman(1997) defining personality would take up a whole chapter in a book. Some would say that a personality includes such things as temperament, attitudes, interests, needs, physiology, morphology, and aptitude .....

Getting Out Of The Ghetto
.... to beat the odds, and get an education that will break the poverty that his family has been striken with. There is one major factor that is on Jones side, he was born in the United States. If Jones Had been lets say in India, his dreams of getting out of the ghetto would be next to impossible. In a caste system your are not only born into poverty, but the fate of poverty is dictated to you. Social mobility that is charictoristic of our class system in the United States empowers Jones to get out of the ghetto.

The Politics Of Homelessness
.... to see: simply build more shelters and public housing. To the extreme right are those that say the homeless have only themselves to blame. Their position is that regardless of why people become homeless, they have the power to rise above it and rejoin society. To them, we should offer assistance only to those who deserve it, and then, only temporarily. Of course, this solution has the problem of determining who is deserving and who is not. Through skillful and clever use of the media, the homeless advocates can be credited with bringing the homeless issue into the American home. Of no small importance in their success was simp .....

Loyalty
.... his hair , punch him , and crawl all over him . Once when a little gorilla leaned against a huge silverback , the male grabbed a long-stemmed flower and tickled the infant with it . Babies are in fact , popular with the entire group . Male and female gorillas hug and play with them much the way we do with human babies .
Females move up in rank when they become mothers . If one wants a better place to sit , a childless female will move over for her . Or a female without little ones will play baby-sitter while a mother eats or naps .
The jungle exposes all animals to dangers , even the mighty gorilla . These great apes climb .....

Racism
.... as though one sex is better than the other; especially, unfair treatment of women by men, caused by thinking this way. You should not treat someone different because of their sex. Woman and men are equal in most ways and can usually complete the same tasks equally well.
Narrow-mindedness: is another form of racism. Narrow-mindedness is like when somebody predetermines by the way you dress, your race, your religion, social class, etc. that you are going to act or behave in a certain way without giving you the chance to prove yourself. When I enter stores or restaurants, because of my young age or baggy clothing people automati .....

Role Models: A Bright Red Peel On A Rotten Apple
.... red peel on the rotting core of the American role model apple.
Since the Greek sport competitions to the latter part of the twentieth century, appropriate behavior, which included achieving set goals, working for a meaningful cause and setting benchmarks for good sportsmanship, was commonplace in society. Athletes were noted for their acts of generosity and their civility that they displayed on and off of the field. Most of the time, sports figures were role models, who wanted to draw attention away from themselves, and redirect the energy into positive actions. Sports figures put to use their prestige to address multiple con .....

Teenage Violence
.... 14 year old, how do you handle this situation? This is not an uncommon situation for children anymore.
Crime frequents in and around schools and is threatening the well-being of the students, school staff and communities. Parents send their children off to school everyday all over America and they worry everyday if their children will return. As a parent you worry about your children becoming victims of violence. Parents want their children to be safe from crime. Teenagers want the same for themselves. No one ever chooses to become a victim of violence. Did you know teenagers experience more than double the rates of violence .....

Issues On Gun Control
.... we tend to interpret the Constitution to broadly. Obviously, in the late 1700's, there were no deadly weapons to contend with. They had muskets, which could hardly be used in a very swift and deadly manner. Granted, the musket could kill, but if you asked any semi-sensible person if they would rather use a musket or a handgun, they would take a handgun any day of the week. This is why, in my opinion, we need to radically change the way we go about handling these problems. With the rising crime rate, the best way to send this trend in another direction is to educate. We must start educating early and if this means raising taxes .....

Guns And Children
.... want to be able to keep there family safe from any harm that might be their way. I want the same thing, but I also want to keep the children from harming them selves or others in anyway thinkable. I feel the same about that ,but if I was a parent or had a gun in a home with small children I would want to keep them safe any way possible. Wouldn’t you want that too? You have to keep the children safe from themselves. Still people say “dismantling and restoring the weapon is hard and a waste of time.” There are ways of learning to do that, heck there is robably a instruction booklet on “How to put a gun together.” The way I look at t .....

Existentialist View Of Human Condition
.... spend money, go for a jog someone else is effected. For an example: a man goes to the store and buys a stereo. First of all the clerk the clerk is effected because they have to check you out, so you have taken some of their time. The store is effected because they are minus one radio from their store. The manufacturer now has to make one more to replace the one that was bought from the store. The manufacturing employees are effected because put the radio together, and so on. On the other hand a man who chooses to steal that same stereo will effect even more people. If he get caught the store, the manufacturer, the police, the .....
