.... important of the virtues. As Franklin states, some associate temperance with eating and drinking, but this was not Franklin's intention. "Temperance first, as it tends to procure that coolness and clearness of head, which is so necessary where constant vigilance was to be kept up, and guard maintained against the unremitting attraction of ancient habits, and the force of perpetual temptations."(Perkins, pg322) This is the most important of the list of virtues. My interpretation of this is that one should always keep a cool head no matter the situation. An example is the way that Hemingway portrays his characters in his novels, and .....

.... though not to exclude or manipulate any one in the class. You must always remember about everyone's feelings and be considerate to all. And in return you will receive respect, which is most important in getting things done. Right from the first day you have to show initiative, you must be strict and let them know who's in charge, other wise you will not get the respect and cooperation that is wished for to make the task easier. They will also cause problems and forget who's in charge. Show confidence, it is really important that you go out there being prepared and being comfortable with what you are going to do, this way th .....

.... in defined sex roles and the sociology of the superordinate. Sex roles he maintains at one time were attributed to biological differences, an explanation that no longer works. Men and women’s talents are now overlapping. Technology and tools are available to both sexes to house, feed, clothe and protect ourselves. The explanation of the sex roles is left to cultural definitions of sex roles and the social pressures that keep each in its place. Men’s resistance isn’t to changing the narrowly defined terms of the male role, (e.g. macho, active, competitive, unsentimental) but to giving greater definition to the female role. He .....

.... be easy for us to see: simply build more shelters and public housing. To the extreme right are those that say the homeless have only themselves to blame. Their position is that regardless of why people become homeless, they have the power to rise above it and rejoin society. To them, we should offer assistance only to those who deserve it, and then, only temporarily. Of course, this solution has the problem of determining who is deserving and who is not. Through skillful and clever use of the media, the homeless advocates can be credited with bringing the homeless issue into the American home. Of no small importance in their .....

.... while trying to grow up. If we only have a couple years of our childhood left then who cares if we spend it in front of a TV? Which is not to say that we do that anyhow. Perhaps we use the TV as a way of relaxing before we go off and hit the books for two hours. Or maybe we use it to spend time with our family. I mean, come on, how many teenagers enjoy going on family outings with mom, dad, and kid brother? However, if the TV can gather everyone together on a Sunday afternoon to watch the "Packers" game then shouldn't mom and dad be happy? On the other hand, there is such a thing as bad TV. Sex and violence is plastered all .....

.... of their sex. A good example of this is to take two fictional characters, Mr. and Mrs. Jones. The Jones's want to go swimming, they get to the swimming baths where they find that Mrs. Jones is charged an O.A.P. price while Mr. Jones has to pay the full price even though they are both the same age. This is because woman become pensioners at the age of sixty while men cannot gain the benefits until they are sixty five. Sex discrimination is not only present within the older generation but is also evident throughout the entire age range. Before legislation was passed in the 1960's most young girls left school after O-levels to rec .....

.... He reflects the American desire for freedom now when he says, "I do not need my freedom when I'm dead. I cannot live on tomorrow's bread." He recognizes the need for freedom in its entirety without compromise or fear. I think Langston Hughes captures the essence of the American immigrants' quest for freedom in his poem, "Freedom's Plow." He accurately describes American's as arriving with nothing but dreams and building America with the hopes of finding greater freedom or freedom for the first time. He depicts how people of all backgrounds worked together for one cause: freedom. I selected Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit .....

.... better listen to the lite fm 93.9., and for lunch I can run out to Arby's for 99 cent roast beef sandwiches, but only for a limited time. And if those roast beef sandwiches get me sick I can go to Osco and get some medicine twenty-four hours a day. All of these ads just came rapid fire. Is this playing upon my need for instant gratification? Are the advertisers trying to get me to hurry? I have to go see a Jeep dealer so I can outrun a bull in heat, but I better be careful if I get it to dirty the pigs will fall in love with it. Wow is that a nice Jeep, but what is the price anyway? And is it practical to own a vehicle that .....

.... covering them up and pretending they do not exist, and allowing ourselves to avoid what it takes to make a dent in them--augmenting Head Start, improving high schools and spending more equally among schools" (Jacoby 36). The implication of racial preference has given high schools permission to replace the tradition of achievement with a culture of entitlement. The feeling of the absence of enthusiasm for achievement is illustrated by John O'Sulllivan editor of the National Review hen he said, "Restoring high standards in high school will take time; but it will not even begin until the corrupting influence of racial preference is r .....

.... focuses only on certain body parts such as the breast or legs, suggesting that a woman does not exist as a whole person but rather she consists of many pieces that a man can pick and choose from. Some pornographic material more blatantly portrays women as enslaved objects, showing their bodies in chains and bondage, down on all fours for a conquering male figure or pretending to enjoy pain. Even pornography that does not portray overtly abusive images remains hostile toward women. Depictions of sex between men and women more often than not fall into the dominant-passive model, where the women fall into the passive roll. De .....
