.... "Internet Addicts." Based on level of addiction, there are three groups of Internet addicts: i) the "I'm-not-addicted users," ii) the "I-only-use-it-when-I-have-to- users" and iii) the "Internet junkies." The "I'm-not-addicted users" are the users who try to convince themselves that they are not addicted to the Internet. This group includes college students who don't go online during the day to prove to fellow students that they can do without getting online; only, to stay up all night in a chat room online. Or businesspeople who stay after office hours to supposedly get a late report done; only, to stay online until the security guy's ready to lock up the building. ....

.... word "tradition" as something stultifying and old, having no meaning for or application to us personally; something usually being forced upon us by someone who smells funny and is only seen on holidays. What all of this means is that we can no longer simply follow the examples of old. It is up to us to create new family traditions. Celebrating is not hard. We all know about celebrating and have some ways of doing it. The only challenge is to find new ways. Why do we need to celebrate tradition? It gives us something to look forward to and makes a formal statement that there are some things in life to be grateful for. The notion of honoring tradition is unsettling for s ....

.... and sexual attacks. Since in the early part of a woman's life, education plays a major role, the fact that most university activities relate to male students, may cause many women to loose interest in education and extracurricular activities. The Sadkers imply that financial distribution of resources points to male dominance because the male-oriented activities and clubs receive a substantially larger portion of the university funding. The interest in male sports and profit made by the university allow male athletics to acquire nearly half of the university funding. Extended funding allows the fields of male athletics to be more "luxurious" with options for its members; ....

.... This ad is a perfect example of how life was in 1934. First, during the beginning of the century baseball was bigger than it had ever been, including today. Baseball was seen as a growing source of entertainment. According to the book This Fabulous Century the most important new influence to baseball was the television. By as late as the end of the next decade the Cleveland Indians drew over 2.5 million fans, the largest ever for a single season. The Camel company goes on to use a celebrity to sell their product. This is one aspect in history that we still see today. The employment of famous athletes to promote the sale of products is as big today, if not bigger, as ....

.... and to limit controversial books and periodicals to the general public. The suppression of reading materials is suppression of creative thought. However and whenever these attacks occur, they usually fall in at least one of the following categories: obscenity and violence, religion. What is obscenity? Clearly something hard to talk about constructively. Obscenity is difficult to discuss honestly. After all what makes something obscene? It is something too vague perhaps to be defined. It’s an elusive term we use, but can’t explain. Different people often see things in a different format. Some see obscenity in nude pictures, statues, paintings. While others find ....

.... can pervade even the lowliest life, and can be tapped by any imagination with sufficient motivation. As a child, Janie longs for the glorious truth which tickles her fancy through the heavenly scent of the pear tree, but the hard materialism of her grandmother and later her first husband restrain her by trying to crowd her mind with the empty trinkets which they themselves have learned to value. Her second husband is similarly stifling; though his strength and power is at first appealing, he too is unable to comprehend that life is in the living and the being, and not in the having and the controlling. Janie not knowing what marriage really meant, married because she thou ....

.... since there was not much to do in the violence torn country of mine. My mother was never a “Hitler” or a stuck up aristocrat. Yet she emphasized on manners and proper etiquette. Even at sixteen I would accompany her as a chaperone to social gatherings. In the absence of my father I would represent the family at various family and social functions. Maybe that is why I grew up or matured, if I may say so, much before any of my or for that matter any other teenager around me. If I were asked to assess my character and forces that are responsible for its structure I would repeat what I have already stated. Now after doing the self-analysis from the book I am sort of lo ....

.... leading up to communism. Government must first control businesses if it is to be considered a communist nation. Democratic socialists believe some government control is necessary to force people to become good citizens, but too much can lead to not enough freedoms. Socialism is seen as an efficient form of government. Capitalism, on the other hand, leads to unemployment, poverty, business cycles, and conflict between owners. Through socialism a nations wealth can be distributed more equally. Socialism is therefore based on cooperation rather than competition. Socialist believe that by creating an economic plan, farmers, manufacturers, workers, and government officia ....
