.... form of football with a stuffed leather ball. Early games in Old England were like mob riots. There were no rules; it was anything goes! The games were so rowdy and violent that many English rulers tried to outlaw them. But it didn’t work. In fact, English travelers took the game with them, spreading it all around the globe. But there needed to be rules. In 1863 the Football Association was formed, or FA, in England. They developed the first real set of rules for modern soccer, or football, as we know it.

.... is almost no way to escape advertisements. The radio, television, and magazine ads make sure of that. The more we view these advertisements, the more we are persuaded toward the . With a television in almost every household and magazines an arm=s length away, advertisers basically have us on our knees. We must digest advertisers= views so frequently that you would think it was necessary to sustain life. Advertising=s main goal is to persuade. They want us to see the American way through their eyes. They tell us what to eat, drink, wear, drive, and think. Advertisers start this form of brainwashing on us at a very early age. They lay the groundwork of ideals .....

.... the facts which stories are correct. For some time I have found myself straining away from the supermarket tabloids and towards magazines I think I can trust. Upon examination of two periodicals, Time and Globe, it is easy to see the distinction between reputable and irreputable media, with regard to the JonBenet Ramsey case. Through the use of facts, photographs, and aim towards a certain audience a discrimination between drama and information is clear. It is disturbing that the Globe magazine uses melodrama and tension to sell a story in which the drama lies not in the pages of a magazine, but in the heart of all the victims. The facts discussed in .....

.... a murder, a car accident, or even a shoplifter, when they are questioned,often give 5 entirely differenty accounts of what happened. some might say that their memories have been affected in different ways, causing the discrepancies in their individual recollections. i, however, see it as proof that perceptions are constantly changing, and can be tricked(quite easily i might add). The facts are never solid. after all, we know that hallucination is possible, but not always when. Then there is the subject of hallucinogens. Lsd, psylocibin(the chemical in mushrooms), etc. are known to cause hallucinations. but again, i ask, how can we know for .....

.... of town would purchase a spot in the marina and then the city would make some money. The lakeside ballroom would also receive more business because people would be coming in from the lake and they want to stop and get some food and beverages. What we wouldn’t want to see is people abusing the marina such as littering and destroying it. The city of Glenwood doesn’t need people littering all over the lake. this would be harmful to the environment. If people were abusing the marina by removing docks and just treating it like crap they would have to remove it and the privilege of having a marina would be gone. One of our interest groups is the DNR. Its auth .....

This attitude is called “no-mind”, a state of consciousness where thoughts come and go without leaving any trace. Unlike other forms of Buddhism, Zen holds that such freedom of mind cannot be attained by gradual practice but must come through direct and immediate insight. Zen students prepare the .....
