.... south of their home lies a vast city. Their language consists mainly of grunts and clicking sounds. The Bushmen's material culture does not include automobiles or any mechanical things. It was thought that a jeep was a very noisy animal with round legs. One of their norms is to first tranquilize an animal, and then explain to this animal that their family needs food, and that it was a must to kill the animal. Their culture traits consist of no forks, spoons, nor knives, but cook everything by fire and eat with their hands. In the Kalahari there is a period of no rainfall for nine months, yet the Bushmen survive on water from roots and plants. When there is a discovery o ....

.... contrast to the indirect contact between God and the society presented to the reader in "Ghosts". Still, both societies follow the rules and norms, set by their religion. An important similarity which is worth mentioning, is that both plays cover only a short period in time, the happenings all occurs within a few days. In this short time we are only introduced to a few characters, as to create a close relationship between the characters and the reader, giving them life and depth. In "Oedipus the King" one meets a society which believes in direct communications with the gods. Each god was worshipped for their special ability and strength. In the play gods by the ....

.... shrink something, you must first allow it to expand. If you want to get rid of something, you must first allow it to flourish. If you want to take something, you must first allow it to be given." This excerpt ties into the statement in Chapter 30 that "for every force there is a counter force" which is applicable to political situations. For example, if a ruler noticed an uprising of disgruntled subjects, it would be wise of her to let them organize, or expand, and state their grievances as a whole before she individually addressed their complaints. Lao-tzu also uses contradiction in Ch 22, "If you want to become whole, let yourself be partial. If you want to bec ....

Anthropologists, who have found evidence of games of chance among early peoples, contend that the attitude of early humankind toward gambling derived from their general attitude toward the environment. To these people the world was a mysterious place controlled by supernatural beings whose favor or disfavor was manifested through chance situations and the outcome of such events as hunts, wars, and games of chance; instruments of divination frequently included objects used in gambling. As people gradually acquired knowledge of the nature of thei ....

.... database to answer. Sketch out the reports you’d like it to produce. Gather the forms you currently use to record your data. Examine well-designed databases similar to the one you are designing. Determining the tables can be the trickiest step in the database – the reports you want to print, the forms you was to use, the questions you want answered – don’t necessarily provide clues about the structure of the tables that produce them. You don’t need to design your tables using Microsoft Access. In fact, it may be better to sketch out and rework your design on paper first. A table should not contain duplicate information, and information sh ....

.... Without it, perhaps, we could not exist; maybe we would become immortal, like gods. At present, we are all in the process of trying to accomplish something; a task, action, or lack thereof. At any given instance, the present exists. One can choose any moment in history, and, at some time, it had existed in the form of the present. Also, in the mind of the person remembering this moment in the past, it exists as present in that particular memory. How can we know that the definition of the word present actually establishes this instant in time? The instant itself only lasts for zero time before subsequent moments follow. How can one define what a word means if one can ....
