.... a legally permissible physical attack on children" (Straus 134). This study reported that in this 1975 National Family Violence survey, it was found that children who were physically punished that year were three times more likely to " severely and repeatedly" assault one of their siblings three or more times over the rest of the year (Straus 136). This same survey also showed that both men and women who had more physical punishment as a child were more likely to assault their spouse during that year (Straus 142). This study also found a rise in street crime with increasing amounts of physical punishment. A 1972 study of 385 college students which were p .....

.... people are homeless because they were forced to be that way, and the general public doesn’t realize it. In the Grapes of Wrath, and in the present time, the general public has set the less fortunate apart from themselves without even realizing it. “I’m seeing more apathy on the part of people. I think people used to feel badly. And now, I think people feel bothered. That’s a dangerous shift.” (Cannon 1) What she means is that at one point in time we used to care for the homeless. We used to try and help them out. Now we don’t care and we just want to get rid of them. This is very similar to the situation in the Grapes of Wrath. At first they wa .....

.... between the mind and the body. By comparing Montaigne’s Essays and the poetry of Donne, it is evident that the means for unifying the mind and body can vary for different people. Montaigne’s general philosophy on the relationship between the mind and the physical health of the body is one that associates a healthy existence with a healthy mind. His idea of a healthy mind is that which is learned through the studies of the “great thinkers” of the past, and steered clear of being taken control of by the omnipotent imagination. In Montaigne’s essay “On the Education of Children,” Montaigne stresses the importance of e .....

.... for all aspects of the human physique and behavior. They do so because they believe that all traits must make rational, "selfish gene" sense somehow because that's their whole point; because natural selection wouldn't allow it otherwise. Some people even have a bizarre "faith" in evolution as if life can always be counted on to devise a way somehow (even miraculously) to survive, i.e., "life will find a way". The SF writer, Robert A. Heinlein, a Social Darwinist, once wrote, "there will always be survivors"; he meant only "survival of the fittest", of course, with the implication that the "non-fit" don't "deserve" to live. Nazism (blatan .....

.... discourse of ‘borderline personality’, schizoid’, ‘paranoid’ or ‘clinically depressed’, often failing to address the wider socio- ltural environment of the individual. Pilgrim (1992) suggests that such diagnostic pidgeon-holing does not enhance humanity, nor aid those who are dealing with the distressed individual to find meaning. It also neglects to consider life beyond the physical, failing to address the more philosophical questions that abound from our very existence. Existential psychiatry and psychology arose in Europe in the 1940’s and 1950’s as a direct response to the dissatisfaction with pre .....

.... least, labyrinths and mazes can provide excitement in books you just can't put down, and puzzles which seem almost impossible to solve for those people who test their minds to the limit for fun. The word labyrinth comes from a Latin word, "labrys" which means "double-axe". One can only speculate why they would call it that, but it does make sense. Labyrinths were built to protect, but what if the person trying to be protected was lost in it. A double-bladed axe would be similar. It can be used to defeat the enemy as long as the other side of it does not defeat the allies. Labyrinths could be used to protect all sorts of things. The .....

.... 1000 tiny specks of dust and zero humidity. The temperature is maintained at a constant 68 degrees Fahrenheit and all workers have to wear coats, gloves, masks, and overshoes. This is necessary because even one dust particle or water droplet can ruin a batch of chip production. The manufacturing of a silicon chip starts when silica, the main component of sand, is heated with carbon which makes 98 percent pure silicon. This is then dissolved in hydrochloric acid. The resulting liquid is fractionally distilled to separate almost all of the impurities.The remaining liquid is then heated in a hydrogen tmosphere, which produces the purest silicon possible. This .....

.... this file simply for the sake of finding one meaning I suggest that you get the entire thing and then never need to call and view phreak files again. Topic 1: The Phone/Modem Since phreaking is impossible without a phone or modem you I will start with the most important and most complex part of phreaking. The Phone. Now, the phone is a device that transfer sounds as sound enters a receiver, is transfered to an amount of voltage, sent through the telephone lines and decodes back to sound. A modem is based on a universal language of sounds transfered through the modem. Modem stands for the work Modulator/Demodulator Thi .....
