.... advances of their masters.1 Slave owners then had the opportunity to take advantage of their slaves without having to worry of prosecution. Without laws that would allow these enslaved women to resist, there is a presumption then that they were always willing to oblige to their master's requests for sex.2 This, of course, is not true. Not all slave women were so compelled to give into their owner's demands. For some slaves the only way they could resist the advances of an oncoming sexual predator was through resistance. Such an example is Jermain Loguen's mother. When attacked, "she picked up a stick and dealt her would- be rapist a blow .....

.... and sometimes exaggerated aggressiveness. Males also tend to be more focused on tasks and connections when with larger groups. The women, on the other hand, tend to be more interdependent, less aggressive, more sharing, more imitation of relationship and intimate discussion, more charitable, more empathetic, more likely to smile, more sensitive, and more skilled at expressing emotions non-verbally. Let’s face it males, women are the super humans. One of the positive key advantages of a male is their assertiveness and high self-esteem. The women on the other hand are more extroverted and tender minded, qualities, which enable them to .....

.... do not realize that the little small changes add up to equal a large change. Changes lay the foundation for which type of person will belong to a certain social stratification. Anytime a change occurs one must beware that they might be entering into a crisis. In the Chinese culture, if one would break up the word crisis, they would find that the word means opportunity and danger-threat. One might gather that the word crisis is bad, but it could also relate to a good situation. What the word crisis is trying to say is that it is a dangerous situation where there is opportunity at the same time. People who are in a crisis must evaluate th .....

.... knowledge, thus their profession was seen as learned. The surgeon, on the other hand, was considered to be an artisan, thus his profession was seen as a craft.4 This craft ideology allowed access for untrained artisans to enter the field of surgery. In this paper, I will statistically demonstrate that the medieval English surgeon was threatened by the growing number of untrained practitioners between the years 1350 and 1450. In response to this threat, medieval surgeons attempted to institutionalize their profession. Ironically, the manner in which they defined their practice did not restrict untrained practitioners, but actually increased access fo .....

.... entire Space Shuttle Program had been started; the O-Ring. Inside the Solid Rocket Booster, there exists certain seals which were the rubber O-rings. The objective of the O-rings is to act as a seal that is meant to prevent gases from escaping through the Solid Rocket Booster. One of the main reasons for the explosion was that O-ring "flexed" and let the gases escape, which in less than seconds later, caught fire and created the explosion. Among the other minor problems were those of electrical problems and faulty gages which were just "overlooked" because the problems were only minor and they posed no real threat to the safety of the miss .....

.... the injuries received in battle or the exposure to biological weapons that tamper with the many systems of the body. The quality of their family life suffers because they have been scared mentally, emotionally and physically; therefore their behavior will not be the same and that affects family life significantly. Another aftermath of war is the suffering children. Many of them experience the painful loss of family members such as their parents, grand parents, and brothers, which sometimes leaves them alone in a harsh world. In addition, the physical health of the children is affected because of injuries, lack of food and medical care. All of this l .....

.... as part of their (man’s) instinctual endowment.� Man needs to practice violence and do it at the expense of others. Rene Girard states that, “violence is not to be denied, but it can be directed to another object, something it can sink its teeth into.� By analyzing these two new theories on violence, along with Paul Tough’s article, one can develop a whole new attitude violence’s relation with the mosh pit. Rene Girard explains that it is only human nature to act in violence during the course of his life. Girard also states that people use this anger in other ways besides the devious. People try to direct their violence into so .....

.... by two emergency physicians, H. Range Hutson MD, and Deirdre Anglin MD, who were deeply saddened by the shooting. The strongest argument presented in the letter written by Hutson and Anglin was that unless the root causes of gang formation are effectively addressed, and gang access to illegally obtained firearms is nullified, gang violence will continue. The claim was presented in such a fashion that, while based on widely accepted ideas, an appeal to the emotions through sympathy for the injured children was also applied. To justify their claim, statistics such as 28 children under the age of 10 were murdered between 1987 and 1994, 95% of which .....

.... 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 Thomas theorem can also be applied here, which is our definitions influence over our constructions of reality. We can define things or people based on their clothing our appearance and this can .....

.... executions: 9.7 homicides per 100,000. The people who are pro death penalty say this is because states have differences. These differences include, the populations, and number of cities. Strongly urbanized states are more likely to have higher crime rates than states that are more rural, such as those who lack . They say states that have the death penalty have it because of their high crime rate, not because they have the death penalty. During the temporary suspension on from 1972-1776, researchers gathered murder statistics across the country. Researcher Karl Spence of Texas A&M University came up with these statistics: In 1960, there were 5 .....
