lay rather in what human society essentially is, than in the history of it’s development, either
generally or in particular cases. Thus Comte, like his predecessor and teacher Saint Simon, was
much concerned to stress that societies are systems, not just aggregates of individuals. Since the
societies were look at as systems, they must be made up of interrelated parts. And they believed
that these parts must be related to one another, and to the whole society of which they were parts,
in accordance with laws similar to the laws of nature, which, in principle at least, it should be
possible to discover. So the understanding of society, ....

Differences In Education In US And Japan

There are far too many add-ons and extras in our schools as well as far too little time being spent covering a specific subject so that they may be fully understood by all students. We tend in our schools to feel that if a student doesn’t quite get something, they will be able to “pick it up” the next year, but that rarely happens. In Japan, a student is not promoted until he has mastered his current level. Also in Japan, classes are set up heterogeneously because their belief is that slow learners must work harder -- high expectations tend to show better r ....

Compared to the shell of an M & M your mouth begins to water when the shell is slowly crunched in between your teeth. The Smartie will never be able to have a tastier shell than M & M's.

Voice in a piece of writing can bring rewards like nothing else can.

connections. The best sportswriters in the country are experts in using
voice. How else can one become involved in the action? Without voice, a
play by play description can become a tedious mass of words ....
