.... she “is too idealistic, too selflessly loving and giving to be believed as a character.” This is no truer than at the hospital after Catherine informs Frederic (Tenente), that she is pregnant her only concern becomes his happiness despite his constant pleas that he is in fact happy about the pregnancy. This is only overshadowed by her constant reassurances that she will be a “good girl”, never failing to apologize hastily for any momentary lapse in judgement. In fact, Catherine never fails to support Frederic for any of the risks he takes with his health, through drinking or th .....

.... by day by day, we see a new hope for meaning. Meaning is what leads our lives. It is like a drug to some of us, and to others, a mere item that is with us for life. Those that are addicted seem to dig deeper and deeper for a better meaning, a greater knowledge of it. Those that care less, look to it as though it is simply a matter of consequence. We ourselves determine the method of thinking which makes us addicted or un-addicted. Our freedom to choose leads us to find whether or not meaning is important to us. Ordinary and unordinary situations tend to lead our thinking to a new light, or co .....

.... room as one of my in which others are not allowed to take away from me. ¡§That¡¦s mine¡¨; I always have this feeling. Once after and argument with my brother, he tried to do some tricks on it so that I was not able to use the computer without his help. Although it is only a small quarrel between sister and brother, it seems to me that my own world was taken by him. I had never been as angry as how I feel that time and I realized the existence of my personal territory. As we know about the importance of our own personal territory, we should try to protect it so that it will not be in .....

.... to the quarterback. The short pause in-between each down may not seem significant, but it definitely takes its toll on the excitement. In rugby, however, the primary rule is that you can only advance the ball by running with, kicking, or passing it. With passing, though, you can only pass the ball backwards or directly to your side, never forward. Like football, you score by running the ball into the endzone or by kicking it through the uprights. Also, you must touch the ball to the ground for it to count, and it is worth five points. When kicking, the ball can be kicked fr .....

.... seeking to attract new employees and hold onto their existing work force are attempting to be creative with the promise of flexible schedules, job sharing, onsite day-care facilities, telecommuting, special deals on parental leave, generous family health care packages and numerous additional individualized incentives that respond to the work- and home-life balance.2 Today, companies are competing for valuable employees.

.... computers and used vacuum tubes, which were electronic tubes about the size of light bulbs as the internal computer components. However, due to the fact that literally thousands of these tubes were required, they generated enormous amounts of heat that caused many problems in the temperature regulation and climate control inside these computers. In addition every tube had to be working simultaneously in order for the computer to function and due to the short tube life (one failed every couple of hours) the computer operators didn’t know if the problem was due to a programming error .....

.... Many of the players and the parents wanted Kraus fired after the first incident, and they definitely want him fired now. In school systems today, many incidents similar to this happen often. Are athletic coaches today given too much power and think they can do whatever they think can improve the team? The coaches should be setting examples to the players, not putting them down. Athletics are not about winning and losing, it is about getting the most out of your players. Sometimes the players lose their concentration during the game and need to be reassured during the halftime disc .....

.... classroom four rooms down. In college there is always plenty of room and you can get all the way across campus with no hassle at all. Another minor difference was the appearance and attitude of the teachers. In high school the teachers were always worried about discipline and trying to keep the students from tearing up the classroom. In college the teachers act like they could care less what you do, but you know they really do care.!? That's probably because it's not their money you are wasting when you go in there and just goof off. College teachers will just tell you to leave .....
