The Troubled Employee
Many of us have seen Gus – he’s the one who believes that in order to ease the hang over from last nights party, he has to have a drink the next morning. But it may not stop there. He needs a sip around 10am to take the edge off. Whatever he does on his lunch is his business so he may go home and have a couple of beers before returning to his job - at the factory. Gus probably has a problem with alcohol, as do 6 to 10 percent of the employee population (Myers 5). Of that number, 30 percent of them are manual workers (Myers 5). .....

Number of words: 880 - Number of pages: 4.... sex (59)”. The difference researchers explain is that there is an existence of a jealousy gender gap. In order to explain what causes the jealousy between genders scientists are now creating tests to prove “whether the mind’s ability to reason, rather than genes, can explain the jealousy gender gap (59).”
Scientists’ theories differ on the science of sexual infidelity. Some scientists use a theory referred to as “my genes made me think it (58).” This theory proposes that jealousy is triggered depending on our genes being passed down from Neandertha .....

When speaking of the Hausa in the north, also, the Fulani should be mentioned. The Fulani are a pastoral-nomadic people. Living in Hausalan .....

Number of words: 4452 - Number of pages: 17.... that migrant labor has had on the African family and child. It must first be understood why the migrant labor force was created, who benefited from it and how it worked. To understand this we must go back to the beginning of colonialism in Africa.
With the arrival of the Dutch settlers to the Cape, little did the African people of Cape known that their lives would be changed forever. With the colonization of South Africa by the first Dutch settlers, also came the need for a cheap labor force for the large-scale white owned agricultural production and later labor within white urban ar .....

Engineering
Number of words: 1017 - Number of pages: 4.... by British mathematician Charles Babbage (Eadie 3). Babbage designed, but did not build, a mechanical digital device capable of processing information as a modern computer does (4). In 1930 American scientist Vannevar Bush built a mechanically operated device, called a differential analyzer (4). It was the first general-purpose analog computer. Analog computers will be discussed later in this paper. The first information-processing digital computer actually built was the Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator, or Mark I computer (4). Completed in 1944, this electromechanical device .....

Capitalism Theory
Number of words: 3331 - Number of pages: 13.... paradigm of consensus is one of "subtextual destructuralism", and hence fundamentally a legal fiction.
Tilton[1] implies that we have to choose between postcapitalist socialism and capitalist dialectic theory. The subject is interpolated into a cultural paradigm of consensus that includes consciousness as a reality.
Therefore, the main theme of the works of Eco is a mythopoetical reality. However, Marx uses the term 'postcultural textual theory' to denote not, in fact, theory, but subtheory. Lacan suggests the use of capitalist dialectic theory to attack class divisions. Any number .....
