.... day of the dead is not a day grief nor does it have to do with anything tragic for the Spanish speaking world, actually it is a day of joy and happiness. It is celebrated all over. People wear bright colors and masks as well as elaborate clothing. People can even make a business by selling things associated with death, some of these things can include candy skulls and paper- mache masks which later were made out of plastic. There is actually two days that are celebrated with death. There is one for children and one for all the rest of the people. The day for children is celebrated for all the kids that died young. The offerings .....

.... enough, none of these accidents ever seem to hurt Wyle E. Coyote, or stop him from repeating his harmful actions. He shows no pain, never goes to the hospital, nor does he ever receive any attention or affection from those who care about him, his family. Cartoons, such as The Road Runner, that children view are misleading them, in the fact that they to can partake in these dangerous acts and never face serious consequences. The case of the young boy who set his house on fire after watching an episode of the ever so popular, Beavis and Butthead, is a prime example. Children witness their favorite characters, their heroes, i .....

.... all readers inter-ested in AARP issues. The issues and goals the AARP advocates span a great deal throughout the political, economic, and social arena. While diverse in its areas of interest, the AARP mainly concentrates on social issues. Being a nonpartisan organization, the AARP does not nationally endorse or contribute any money to the campaigns of any candidate running for national positions including presidency. Politics in the AARP is basically left to the individual to decide whom he/she will support. The only participation the AARP takes is through the AARP/VOTE program. The goals of the AARP/VOTE program are to .....

.... as the key to unlocking the evil in more unstable minds? According to Edward Donnerstein, a leading researcher in the pornography field, ÿthe relationship between sexually violent images in the media and subsequent aggression and . . . callous attitudes towards women is much stonger statistically than the relationship between smoking and cancerÿ (Itzin 22). After considering the increase in rape and molestation, sexual harassment, and other sex crimes over the last few decades, and also the corresponding increase of business in the pornography industry, the link between violence and pornogrpahy needs considerable study and .....

.... ponds, and animals. Thoreau was also indicative of Emerson's success as a transcendental writer, because they lived together in the same house and shared similar ideas and beliefs. Along with the influence of Thoreau, Emerson was further affected by the writings of William Wordsworth and Samuel Coleridge in their book Lyrical Ballads. Emerson's poems reflect the images of the oversoul and harmony of man and nature. Unlike the previous poets, William Cullen Bryant was his own creator. Born in a rural area, Bryant had a deep interest in nature and loved to explore his surroundings. He began writing poetry at age nine, and .....

.... English and they had been in America for longer. Maybe it is because Ellis island immigrants didn't live in a time of such great discrimination. No matter who, immigrants came and still come for the same reasons. Coming to America is a great dream, and it seems that they get all they are looking for. They escape political, economic, and religious persecution. But mostly they come to escape poverty. They find bad conditions and work harder than the average person. But are the expectations for the land of milk and honey met? Not usually. The image that they have pieced together from a home magazine is not at all what they find. .....

.... that gay marriages promote physically harmful activity, and the chance for children to be raised in an unstable household. A common fear is the potential disillusion of the marriage contract between a man and a woman. They believe this contract encompasses terms including the ability and expectation of procreation. Though these points are valid, they are somewhat irrelevant due to the separation of church and state. The argument is not the religious sanctioning of same sex marriage; it is the need for government recognition of it. Throughout history, society and government have constantly been infringing on the people� .....

.... violence. Racists can be any color: white, black, brown, red or yellow. A white racist thinks all blacks are alike, while a black racist thinks all Hispanics are alike. In addition, a Hispanic racist may think all Native Americans are alike. The ethnic boundaries of racism “pigeon hole” another group, while having no boundaries of its own. It only requires a tangible object that can be pointed at, discriminated against, spat upon and attacked. The differences are not important because the attack comes from fear. Racism is expressed in labels including: “chink”, “nigger”, “honky”, “wop, “kike” and “Goo .....

.... warm liking; affection; attachment. Love is simply a choice we make when we find someone who makes us happy, and who we trust with our innermost thoughts and feelings. We hear that love will make us happy. We hear that single people are lonely. We are told that if we are not part of a couple, we are not complete. We all want to be part of this thing called ‘love’. Okay, we get a boyfriend or girlfriend, now everything should be perfect. But, it’s not perfect, because life never is. It is easy to become disappointed. Feelings can change. One person may decide to say good-bye. When that happens, the one left behin .....

.... is destroying out culture. Many argue that welfare is necessary for many families, and that it must not be cut. Some argue that it is giving starving families the boost they need to make it one more year. This is only partially true. Yes, we need welfare, but we also need to limit the amount of time a family can stay on it. By letting families stay on welfare for extended periods of time, we are only creating a lazy, dependent culture. Mothers figure that the welfare check will come in the mail, so where's the motivation for going out and getting a job? There isn't one. This is why President Clinton signed the welfare r .....
