.... at leading, influencing, and motivating groups, as well as analyzing problems. The authors go on to show that, despite these similarities, women are disproportionately represented in the ranks of Fortune 500 company executives. Repeated references are made to studies that were conducted with 22 people, 16 men and 6 women, whose job is to select executives for top jobs. These people are continually referred to as "savvy insiders" throughout the article. These so called savvy insiders were tasked with providing an example of what they considered to be a woman who "made it" and one who "derailed". They describe what basically .....

.... on my nerves I'd say just about anything to shut her up sometimes. Have a look at Josephine in the novel "Looking for Alibrandi" and compare her to her mother. Jose may absolutely hate her mother sometimes but at others be unable to live without her presence. I don't think that Jose could ever imagine her mother being in the same position as her. What I don't understand is if our parents have been through this themselves, then why do they have such a hard time understanding why their children often hate them for the same reasons? My main point is that if our parents have resented their parents for the way they were brought .....

.... not strong enough to make kids do things that are strongly against their morals. One of the ways that kids morals are bent so that gang violence becomes more acceptable is the influence of television and movies. The average child spends more time at a TV than she/he spends in a classroom. Since nobody can completely turn off their minds, kids must be learning something while watching the TV. Very few hours of television watched by children are educational, so other ideas are being absorbed during this period of time. Many shows on television today are extremely violent and are often shown this from a gang's perspective. .....

.... to eat while shopping. The women shared similar attributes, for example they both had short brown hair and wore dark clothing. One of the women seemed to dominant in most of the conversation. She was very expressive with her hand gesturing as well as her facial expressions. She raised her eyebrows and smiled quite a lot through the conversation. The dominant women leaned forward to get closer to the other woman when speaking almost as though she was telling a secret. Then she would sit back to listen to the other lady reply. The women stayed there for about a half an hour before leaving. The third table that I observed had a larg .....

.... the control of my instructors, I entirely abandoned the study of letters and resolved no longer to seek any other science than the knowledge of myself, or of the great book of the world”(16). The knowledge of oneself, and of his so-called “book of the world,” can be obtained solely through a process of reason. He argues that it is reason alone “which constitutes us men, and distinguishes us from the brutes”(13). Therefore, according to him, the human being is an elite animal, distinguished by his (or her) ability of rational thought. It is this nature as a rational animal that puts humans in their supreme position a .....

.... your side, but as we've learned from our politicians, it is not necessary. However, if the truth does eventually get out you may end up looking like a fool. In a multi-sided argument, an argument which is not dealing in absolute truths, but rather different opinions, it is preferable to believe in the side you for which you are arguing, but isn't necessary if your background is strong enough. In simpler terms, don't get into an argument you know “nothin” about. It is important to know with whom you are arguing. If you are in a relationship (guy - girl), and you are the guy, give up now you can't win. The laws of nature are ag .....

.... one it didn't just happen overnight, it has just been popularized overnight, domestic violence has been going on from as far back as anyone can remember and probably farther than that, and two, this is not affecting many people at the same timem, because, as I've stated before, "in most families men and women do not engage in physically abusive behavior". If you as the reader gets anything out of this paper, it is important to me as the writer, that you find that, while domestic violence is a major problem for some families, it is by no means an epidemic. The major reason domestic violence has become so widespread over th .....

.... be evaluated holistically. All students leaving high school should be proficient at a college entry level; able to read, express themselves eloquently in written and oral form, think critically, compute mathematics, have some first hand appreciation of the arts and a strong sense of values. The inadequate education California's students are presently receiving can be amended by personalized teaching, the teaching of ethical values, and a hands-on, inquiry based teaching of the basics. To realize these educational goals for every student may seem like a pipe dream, but to try for anything less would be to sacrifice individual m .....

.... it leads to a near total ‘green out’ of the aquarium obscuring even the fish. Although I had an idea as to how I might deal with this problem I decided to ask at the local fish store to see if some breakthrough product or method has been developed since my stint in the business. This yielded absolutely nothing. I was able to find no one who, a) knew what exactly I was dealing with, b) could provide a viable solution or c) was honest about the first two. No one asked how much light the tank receives, what type of filtration system is installed or whether the tank is maintained properly. Although they had tried to placat .....

.... alderman etc..." not as a malicious attack upon woman, but as non-sexist, non-biased terms. "English language is alive and constantly changing"(Gelder). One only has to read out loud sentences from the 19th century to sense the shifts that have occurred in the last 150 years. When readers pick up something to read, they expect different formalities depending on the time in which the material was written. We are even beginning to see people who are scrutinizing the Bible. While many United Church members are singing the praises of their Church's new hymn book, others are attacking it's gender sensitive language. Why do w .....
