.... longer fibered white cotton. As the white variety grew in popularity, colored cotton nearly isappeared, kept alive only by the hand-spinners. That is, until Sally Fox found a forgotten bag of brown cotton seeds in 1982. Pursuing her lifetime dream and her love for the environment, Sally Fox began to investigate the possibilities of creating commercially viable long-fibered colored cotton. Realizing the potential importance of colored cotton as an alternative to using solvent-based dyes, she was determined to succeed in producing a marketable fashion raw material. The final result was Fox Fiber®, a strong long-fibered colored cotton, which can be .....

.... Although they differed considerably in their specific views, most of them agreed that ideal societies could be created without much difficulty. They felt all that was needed was to have the formation of a few small, cooperative communities made up of their followers. The comte de Saint-Simon regarded technological progress and large scale economic organization as being the most important keys to the establishment of these communities. It was felt that industrial growth was the key to happiness for people in the future. Another visionary, Fourier, was quite the opposite of Saint-Simon. He Spoke strongly against the use of industry. His opinion .....

.... main goal is to make the reader look at the world through analytical eyes. Descartes goes as far as refuting his trust of the senses, the body, and the sciences that have been proven to be reliable time and time again. Through these examples, the reader gains a sense that Descartes isn’t afraid to question even the simplest, most proven foundations of society. He says, "It is a mark of prudence never to place our complete trust in those who have deceived us even once." Descartes makes sure in his Meditations that he leaves no stones unturned. He believes this adds completeness to his studies, which is the most important thing to him. W .....

.... acceleration has on students. Some discussion will be rendered as to the effect on the parents of accelerated students. My conclusions will be derived from the various arguments and research that will be presented throughout the essay. From the introduction we are led to the question, of what actually is acceleration? Davis and Rimm (1994) state that “any strategy that results in advanced placement or credit may be titled as acceleration�(p. 106). Acceleration is the act of advancing students into grades higher than their year of enrolment allows. The Board of Studies guidelines for accelerated progression (1991), define acceleration as involving .....

.... by replacing the letters of the alphabet with substitute letters from a certain number of places away. For example, let's say we decide to use the key "+4." That would mean we'd switch each letter in our message with the letter that comes four places later in the alphabet. D would become H; R would become V, and so on. You, or anyone else who knows the key can easily switch the H back to a D, the V back to an R, and figure out where to meet. Theses two examples are on opposite sides of the spectrum, but both have their similarities and their differences. The major difference complexity, the government pays mathematicians to research .....

.... done this and I commend them on this decision, but the government needs to mandate this to all the states. Some people oppose this decision and say that it is based on “emotion, personal vendettas, and irrational, sound public policy, nor backed up by statistical data.”( DWI Dilema, Internet source) However, I disagree. We need to send the message that it is not acceptable, nor is it constitutional to drive under any influence of alcohol, weather it be .08 or .20. “Drunken driving was once treated much as car accidents—a regrettable but unavoidable part of life on the roads. But a vocal grass-roots movement led my MADD (M .....

.... to. It was the gods who sent suffering and evil to men. In the plays of Sophocles, the gods brought about the hero’s downfall because of a tragic flaw in the character of the hero. In Greek tragedy, suffering brought knowledge of worldly matters and of the individual. Aristotle attempted to explain how an audience could observe tragic events and still have a pleasurable experience. Aristotle, by searching the works of writers of Greek tragedy, Aeschulus, Euripides and Sophocles (whose Oedipus Rex he considered the finest of all Greek tragedies), arrived at his definition of tragedy. This explanation has a profound influence for more th .....

.... Gray wrote another poem called “The curse upon Edward.” In this poem, Gray does not compare and contrast. He talks about death up front. He says that “The shrieks of death, thro’ Berkley’s roof that ring.”(Gray. 821) Gray has a way of writing lines in difficult ways, that you could have used six words to explain the sentence. In his last poem “The Progress of Poesy,” Gray has a different way of explaining his point of view. In this particular poem he pertains to life as a drink. He wants the reader to get a mental picture of a human , drinking life like a glass of tea. .....

.... (HRM) practices are continually evolving to meet the changes of dynamic work environments. New technologies, increasingly rapid exchanges of information, social paradigm shifts and the restructuring of family systems contribute heavily to the need to find and apply methods of HRM that meet the needs of industry, workers and consumers. To do so effectively, vision and creativity are required in addition to on-going awareness of the bottom line. The Changing Workplace At the opening of the 20th century, the majority of jobs in America were held in two areas, agriculture and industry. Population distribution tables for that time de .....
