Arnold Cameron in his article the Culture of Slovenia mentioned that with the use of architecture it has been possible for outsiders to gauge many elements of a country’s culture such as its lifestyle, sensibilities in terms of the arts and humanities and even its social structure.

These slides attempt to estimate the extent of the problem, and point out that teenage alcohol use is probably half of what it was in 1975. It has been declining for twenty years, due in part to raising the drinking age and public education campaigns against drunk driving.

One fairly recent estimate places the number of heavy drinkers in age 12-to-21 group at 2 million and the number of alcoholics at about 1.1 million, but these estimates vary widely by age, social class, ethnicity, location and how the questions are framed.

Almost certainly there are far more ...

What is innovation? Is it when you wake up in the morning and discover a new way to reach that part of your back above the spinal cord, and be able to scrub it? Is it when you have no idea of fixing your car, but you manage through a trial and error method? Most people use the famous Greek word Eureka to show a level of accomplishment, where a number of cases do not display any sense of innovation. Innovation activities should result to either creation of new wealth producing resources or endow an existing resource ...

Homelessness is a very significant problem that exists in any city.

Cancer affects the body’s most basic unit, the cell. Normally, cells grow and divide to form new cells. When cells grow old, they die to make room for new ones and new cells grow only when the body needs them.

Tumors can be either benign or malignant (National Cancer Institute, 2011). and organs.

Therefore, aggressive foreign policy of fascist states created a military threat to the world. The second group of countries (Allies) sought to maintain their positions, directing their actions against the fascist states, and the Soviet Union, as they were counting on mutual exhaustion of both sides in ...

Jules Verne is arguably one of the most prescient science-fiction authors in history – his works are remembered for their vast imagination and endlessly prescient views into the future of science and the exciting nature of their adventures. One of his most well known works, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, is on its surface a fantastical tale of a group of men who stumble upon the secret submarine Nautilus, commanded by the enigmatic Captain Nemo. However, closer examination of the novel itself reveals Verne’s penchant for social commentary and intricate political subtext, as 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea becomes a ...

I have always been interested in selecting a career path that covers my educational needs and that, which provides me with proper skills to handle my job.

Body language is an essential part of communication. Human beings pass most of their communication through body language. The human mind is wired to decipher the non-verbal cues passed by the body before the mind interprets the audio signals produced by the mouth. People can communicate through nonverbal cues without uttering a single word. Body language entails facial expressions, gestures and body posture. The three non- verbal cues make an integral part of the body language. Body language is the most common means of communication; however, body language is understood by few people in the society. There some common nonverbal ...

It didn't allow the specialists the level of chance of representation that is associated with Western skilled workers (Grimal and Grimal).

Of all the varieties of conceptual models of the information society, for the purposes of this study, it is important to include at least two aspects: first, characterizing the functioning of culture at the named stage of social development and, secondly, a new type of relations in the system of "individual - society".

Various non-Western cultures have gone through globalization particularly in Japan. The first native non-Western culture in Japan is that will be looked at is the cultural language (Bachika, 2008). The other globalized native non-Western culture is food culture in Japan. Religion as culture in Japan is ...

According to CIA, “terrorism is a “premeditated, politically motivated violence perpetrated against noncombatant targets by subnational groups or clandestine agents” (cia.gov, 2014). Nevertheless this definition is not complete and requires significant adjustments. Martha Crenshaw in her article “Theories of terrorism: Instrumental and organizational approaches” tries to conceptualize terrorism before making any recommendations on how to combat it. According to Crenshaw, the act of terrorism is a deliberate choice by political actor (Crenshaw 1987, p. 13). In the first case terrorism is an attempt to achieve collective values of the group under the influence of external pressure, particularly under the government’s ...

The Civil War is largely remembered as a fight between white northerners and white southerners and central to this fighting were issues of states’ rights, secession, and slavery.

The start of the Civil War saw many free African Americans in the north hoping to enlist in the military. Although some African Americans had served in the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812, a 1792 federal law barred them ...

A 49-year-old male presenting for vague abdominal discomfort, lack of appetite, and no bowel movements has a large differential diagnosis. The causes of the symptoms may be diverse and tangential fields such as nutrition and psychiatry must be considered aside from bowel pathology. The bowel pathologies that must be considered are obstructions, infections, ischemia, and perforations of the underlying anatomy. Given the history of appendix surgery, adhesions must be considered as well. Peritonitis is unlikely due to the lack of rebound and the vague localization of the pain. The most likely diagnosis is a diverticulitis. Diverticulitis is the most likely culprit ...

The history of British social policy, exactly as vast majority of social policies of developed states, can be viewed as a transition from the state, where the one is always responsible for making his/her living, despite any kind of social risks he/she experienced, to the welfare state, where none permits social or natural contingencies to fully determine the lives of people, and a range of programs to protect children and adults from illness, disability, poverty and unemployment exist (Gutmann, 1988, p.1). In the history of British policy the concept of welfare state is for the first time mentioned with regard ...

There are different levels that a person must undergo to be a qualified writer. The skill of writing entails understanding different genres of literature and their characteristics and knowing how to make a good analysis of these literature pieces. The more a writer is exposed to different experiences and reviews, the more qualified and precise the writer will be. My interest in this class spiked after I checked information on the class online and found out that one of the themes that was going to be explored in this class was about Sherlock Holmes. I have to admit that I have leant a lot ...

One day, a self-proclaimed brilliant man arrived at a podium to address a crowd of slavers. Together, they filled the air with enough heart-felt hatred to make the Lord want to start the whole world over from scratch. His name was Willie Lynch. As his surname would suggest, his message was one that suggested both physical and mental brutality as the magic ingredients to creating a loyal, fearful and well-controlled slave.

This letter has inserted itself into American history whether or not the authors of modern day textbooks would like to admit it. Consequently, this brings about a new challenge. Willie Lynch wrote a letter ...

The word "homo,” the name of the biological genus to which human belongs is Latin for "human.” It was picked initially via Carolus Linnaeus in his grouping framework. The saying "human" is from the Latin humanus, the descriptive manifestation of homo.

Human presented developmental capacities, which are innovative, complex, typical, and social in nature and make them unique from other surviving species. In any case, what precisely has advanced to evolve these ...

The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States are commonly considered to be the two most important and defining documents of our nation’s history. The former, a formal declaration of independence from their status as colonies of Great Britain, established the essential concepts by which the nation wished to define itself. The latter was the second (and current) attempt to create a system of laws that would provide structure to the nation’s workings now that it was successfully and fully independent. While the Constitution is its own distinct document, the central conceits and ideas behind it ...

Local Americans endured an aggregate disaster throughout the span of the nineteenth century. At the same time their stories can't be basically dense into one expert account of thrashing and destruction. To comprehend what happened to "The American Indian," we have to take a gander at the lives of the numerous Indians––and whites––that helped this multi-faceted story. At practically every turn, Native Americans ended up overpowered by Anglo-Americans' budgetary and military assets. At the neither same time their reaction to occasions was not, one or the other one-dimensional nor defeatist. Some attempted discretion. Others turned to religion. Still others ...
