.... fraternity (Phi Beta Kappa) was founded for "social and literary purposes" at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia on December 5th 1776. After half a century of existence, it became and has since remained a scholarship honor society. Throughout the nineteenth century, many new fraternities were founded, but none of these were permanent. Then, in 1825, the Kappa Alpha Fraternity (now Kappa Alpha Society) was born at Union College. Two years later, Sigma Phi and Delta Phi had been founded at the same college, constituting the so-called Union Triad which was, in a large measure, the pattern for the American Fraternity s .....

.... the thesis people must know what dams are. A dam is a barrier built across a water course to hold back or control water flow. Dams are classified as either storage, diversion or detention. As you could probably notice from it's name, storage dams are created to collect or hold water for periods of time when there is a surplus supply. The water is then used when there is a lack of supply. For example many small dams impound water in the spring, for use in the summer dry months. Storage dams also supply a water supply, or an improved habitat for fish and wildlife; they may store water for hydroelectricity as well. A diversion dam is a gene .....

.... for the labor force. Schools prepare students to be literate, informed and reasoning citizens. According to Philip Schlechty, author of Schools for the twenty-first century, “Public schools are the ties that bind this pluralistic society into a nation. Our Nation's thirty-sixth president, Lyndon B. Johnson, also believed that there is no institution more fundamental to American society and democracy than its public schools.�(36) Public schools are the cornerstone of America's future. The development of youth's knowledge, skills and social dispositions has always been critical to the country's success. In the next century, America' .....

.... They think that this child is holy, and pure. Obviously they think that he is good, and virtuous. He has the most power in their entire religious system of beliefs. There are many many people who believe in this religion, and have done so for centuries. This child is trained from a very young age on and is selected to lead a virtuous life. He practices things that Aristotle would view as virtuous, for example, courage, pride, justice, and temperance. This child could easily get in more “practice time� of virtuous activity than the average person, even more than a person who is on their way to being virtuous who is an adult .....

.... I smoke. Despite my academic achievements and fluency in the English language, several people still stereotype me as an "Ah-Beng", which is basically the Hokkien translation of a punk. From my feedback, some people actually consider me quite a benevolent person. I'm amiable by nature, even I do not realise it. Even so, I sometimes, am still discriminated because I have long hair. Many young people out there have similar hairstyles as I do, but my relatives and parents don't seem to understand that a person's characteristics, personality or academic capabilities, has no relation, whatsoever, with an individual's outward demeanour. I guess i .....

.... from a Tahitian term. Sailors showed an early interest in the tattoos of the Pacific, and the practice of tattooing has persisted among seamen. Tattooing techniques vary widely--for example, the Eskimo use bone needles to draw soot-covered thread through the skin, and the Japanese use fine metal needles and multicolored pigments. Scarring, or cicatrization, is most common in the cultures of Africa, Australia, and Melanesia. In the initiation rites of boys among the Nuer of the Sudan, six cuts are made across the forehead and remain for life as scars. Finer tattoolike patterns are chiseled onto the faces of young female initiates of the .....

In the reaction to the injury itself, there is a primary reaction followed by a secondary reaction. With this ankle sprain, a common primary reaction is that of fear. This athlete can be afraid of many things ranging from them never getting better to never getting to play again to being afraid of the unknown. In order to conquer this fear the athletic trainer needs to help reassure the athlete about their injury. This can be done by presenting the truth about the injury and rehab process in a manner they can unders .....

.... a computer in every room is a bigger priority. If you stop and think, it's a lot easier to throw money around and buy things than it is to sit down and devise a plan to minimize the student to teacher ratio. People are very concerned about having Internet access in every classroom. How are all the students supposed to take advantage of this opportunity if they have to wait in a long line for their turn? Smaller classes seem to be the answer. No more numb arms because some poor kid raised their hand and the teacher did not even notice. With fewer students in a classroom, teachers can spend more one-on-one time with each student, giving t .....

.... automobiles or any mechanical things. It was thought that a jeep was a very noisy animal with round legs. One of their norms is to first tranquilize an animal, and then explain to this animal that their family needs food, and that it was a must to kill the animal. Their culture traits consist of no forks, spoons, nor knives, but cook everything by fire and eat with their hands. In the Kalahari there is a period of no rainfall for nine months, yet the Bushmen survive on water from roots and plants. When there is a discovery of a coke bottle, cultural diffusion begins. The Bushmen think the bottle is a gift from the gods. They begin to f .....
