.... early is fame. Many athletes are well-known in college, but nothing like the athletes who are the professional leagues. Look at Emmit Smith, the running back for the Dallas Cowboys. A person cannot go into a mall in America where his jersey is not sold. Both little children and some adults worship him. Professional athletes are even making their own movies now. What other profession can a nineteen or twenty year old be paid millions to play a game and have a movie career on the side? The lure of this stardom usually takes the place of finishing ones education. Finally, the risk of injury plays a big factor in the athletes deci .....

.... line. Next, mark the Top Dead Centre (TDC) mark on the harmonic balancer (the round piece on the front of the engine) with chalk. In addition, it is a good idea to chalk the correct mark for the number of degrees to which you'll be setting the distributor. This specification is usually found in the owner's manual of the vehicle. The third step is to actually use the timing gun. Hook the timing gun up to the battery using the twelve volt alligator clips. Additionally, attach the gun to the number one spark plug wire with the wire provided. Usually, a certain engine speed will be designated by the car manufacturer for setting .....

.... the traditional masculinity has those aspects, self- centredness, defensiveness, a strong sense of entitlement, and a strong sense of pride. But often this is difficult for men to accept because individual men can feel so unsure and powerless themselves. They find it hard to recognize themselves in the powerful images that they were forced to do by society. Especially, after the challenge of feminism. From the Stone Age time, the society was for men. First, men use their physical ability to rule the female and society. After that, when human being had the intellectual life, it wasn¡¯t really open to female. In other word .....

.... stress. Some detrimental symptoms that are apparent are high blood pressure, extra heart beats, and emotional problems. Some behavorial reactions to stress are difficulty relaxing, sleeping, controlling emotions, and generalized anxiety. There is frequent drug, alcohol, and food abuse.

.... use inside information to boast more profit. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) defines insiders as “any shareholder who holds in excess of five percent of a companies voting stock or any officer or director of a corporation or employee who has access to important corporate information” (McGee 219). This information can consist of future mergers, takeovers, pending lawsuits, etc. usually vital to the company's future stock value. On the basis of this information the insider puts in an order to buy or sell a block of stock. This alerts other traders to follow and once the information is made public the .....

.... the social requirement that we achieve the "ideal weight" is based on the presumption that we can completely control our body size, which is not true. The only things that seem to sell these days are young faces. It seems as if the younger the better. When you take a look at all the new television shows and movies all you see is young faces. It is harder for the older and more experienced actress to get roles nowadays. They are pairing up older male actors with very young actresses. For most women, staying youthful is an ongoing competition. One of the most common ways is the use of makeup. A lot of women use makeup to cover any .....

.... system to investigate this matter. Of course I found Chicano fictional writers; however, not as many as I wish I would've found. And so I decided to base my paper on a topic that I don’t recall we ever discussed in class: Chicano literature. Myself being an actor and a writer this subject fascinates me. In preparation for my paper, my research consisted of reading several short stories by Chicano authors whom I found to be exceptionally successful. I will attempt to inform the reader of this paper about the Chicano authors' successes and give an analytical review of the stories which I read. These readings which I tack .....

.... design of computer chip circuitry. For this project they were set up in an “office” which was really a trailer that was filled with computers and equipment. “ I was terribly bored,” Filo stated, “And with our faculty advisor out of town we started to fool around on the World Wide Web.” They soon became very frustrated with the World Wide Web. It seriously lacked any type of organization. The only was to access a page was to know the URL, or the address to the website. At the time there were books being published with lists of different sites and their addresses, however, this proved to not be very us .....

.... uniform policies as part of an overall program to improve school safety and discipline. California, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland, New York, Tennessee, Utah and Virginia have enacted school uniform regulations. Many large public school systems including Baltimore, Cincinnati, Dayton, Detroit, Los Angeles, Long Beach, Miami, Memphis, Milwaukee, Nashville, New Orleans, Phoenix, Seattle and St. Louis have schools with either voluntary or mandatory uniform policies, mostly in elementary and middle schools. In addition, many private schools have required uniforms for a number of years. Still other schools have implem .....

.... men for visual pleasure and by women for self-definition. Any depiction of a woman in scant clothing ultimately makes her look vulnerable and powerless, especially when placed next to a physically stronger man. Studies show that advertisements will concentrate primarily on a woman's body parts rather than her facial expressions. Also, it was proven that over 50% of commercials portraying women contained at least one camera shot focusing on her chest. Men enjoy these images, and sadly, women tend to try to embody them, regardless of the extent to which they degrade themselves. Perhaps one of the most recent, successful, and controv .....
