.... I still spend my money, hoping that I might be a millionaire soon. I asked my mom about what she thinks that and she said, “the age should be near thirty”. She went on to tell me what the consequences were and I should not blow my money like that. I went into a Texaco on November 1, 1999, and I noticed two machines to my left as I walked through the door. I looked at the machines and noticed a sign that read “Must be at least 18 years of age to play”. I had $1.50 in quarters in my pocket, so I played. I was ahead in the game, so I decided to cash what I had out. The machine printed out a yellow ticket. I lost the rest of the credits and took the .....

.... and so on, your store stands the chance of losing a substantial portion of its customer base. The old adage ‘time is money’ has never been more true. Remember the same holds true for a consumer; "if you waste my time, I will not waste my money." For the past couple of months I have been coping with an algae problem, in my home aquarium, known as greenwater. This is caused by too much light and too much organic matter on which the algae feed. It is not a threat to the fish but turns the water to a cloudy greenish haze in its first stages. Eventually it leads to a near total ‘green out’ of the aquarium obscuring even the fish. Although I had an idea as to how I m .....

.... if you have similar interests to the person or what kind of activities he or she is currently partaking in. Therefore the clothing a person wears can allow for what sociologists would define as symbolic interaction, that is interaction that is possible because of the ability of humans to create and manipulate symbols. Clothing is definitely something that we create and manipulate in order to help interactions to become easier for us. We can also see our social construction of reality through the clothing that we wear, that is our experiences of the world or the meanings that come out of the interactions that take place amongst people in our daily lives. The Tho .....

.... techniques for survival were acquired. Later, the Europeans depended on the Indians, some of whom acted as middlemen and who had items which were valuable to them. Various Indian personalities were also observed and admired by Europeans particularly the Jesuits. The Native Indians were among the first people to enter North America. They entered America through the passage of the Bering Strait, a location which is the midpoint of Alaska and Siberia. As time passed, they settled on various pieces of land and hunted, fished and grew crops. Alfred Bailey mentions that, "It had been suggested that Siouans, the Iroquoians and Algonquians were among the first to ent .....

.... is one of our reactions to a lack of understanding. We cannot hate that which we understand. Hate is our frustration at failure to comprehend. The more we understand something hated, the more our hatred becomes sadness or pity, or deepens to a hatred of that which caused whatever it was that we did not understand. In the latter case, the hatred may increase with understanding, but the object of the hatred has shifted. We are given a wide range of paths for dealing with our hatred, from the altruistic to the reactionary. The altruists, wishing peace without societal discord, tell us to repress our hatred and replace it with love, a path bound eventu .....

.... like many of the tribes that encountered whites, expressed trust and fellowship toward the strangers who had journeyed into the Native's homeland. Among other survival skills, Squanto taught them to plant and harvest crops in soil foreign to the settlers, how to hunt animals with the most protein (to get maximum energy from the food), and how to build shelter and clothing necessary to endure the harsh climate of what's presently Massachusetts. The very act of the Natives caretaking for the settlers created the possibility of the Indian Nations' downfall. If the the settlers weren't given food and friendship, they surely would've died off and Indi .....

.... assumptions regarding a family can be very widespread. Ranging from the conservative viewpoint to the more liberal view. The conservative is the more traditional view of the two. Believing that the only true family is the joint relationship of a husband, wife, and children is a thing of the past. Recently an alarming number of unfavorable situations have arisen. These situations range from one-parent families to the inexplicable situation of two partners of the same sex. What happens to a society where the nuclear family is no longer the dominant configuration? Only time will tell. Being brought up in a traditional environment, I have very conservat .....

.... current norms, bringing the style they are known for today. “Eve of destruction; no satisfaction…and a third motif went rippling through the baby-boom culture: adhesive love” (Gitlin 200). The freedom they found came with the help of drugs. Marijuana evolved from its “black and Hispanic, jazz-minded enclaves to the outlying zones of the white middle class young” (Gitlin 200). This new drug allowed a person to open their mind to new understandings and philosophies. But it wasn’t just marijuana that opened the minds of the youth; a new drug known as LSD came into existence: Depending on who was doing the talking, [LSD] is an intellectual tool to explore psychic ‘ .....
