America: A Melting Pot
Number of words: 447 - Number of pages: 2.... U.S. is made up of many different nationalities of people. Some ideas have come from these groups of people. These ideas may have been words or types of agriculture but these do not begin to relate to the true meaning of the melting pot theory.
In today's society most ethnic groups have to become accustomed to an American way of life which means the English language. This is a problem because these people have to learn English to survive or they will not be able to succeed in America. This idea also holds true for their children as they will also have to learn American ways rather than .....

The Increasing Prison Population
Number of words: 355 - Number of pages: 2.... funded by American taxpayers.
The private sector is heavily involved in prison management, and prison
privatization is one of the country's hottest industries. Some companies
manage entire prisons, while others specialize in particular operations
such as health or food services. And manufacturers prosper when they
provide the many additional necessary items, from uniforms and bedding to
surveillance and monitoring equipment.
If current trends continue, the prison population will increase rapidly in
the next decade. Even without growth, the current prison population would
still be much more .....

The TV Generation
Number of words: 539 - Number of pages: 2.... have always been free-spirited in any
generation. We are always doing and saying childish things while trying to grow
up. If we only have a couple years of our childhood left then who cares if we
spend it in front of a TV? Which is not to say that we do that anyhow. Perhaps
we use the TV as a way of relaxing before we go off and hit the books for two
hours. Or maybe we use it to spend time with our family. I mean, come on, how
many teenagers enjoy going on family outings with mom, dad, and kid brother?
However, if the TV can gather everyone together on a Sunday afternoon to watch
the .....

Advertising - Good Or Bad
Number of words: 210 - Number of pages: 1.... purpose - to sell. To acheive this goal,
advertises are willing to stretch and distort the truth, just to convincing
people to buy their product. For example, an advertiser may convince buyers to
purchase their product by stating that has been tested and found superior. In
reality, the product is not likely to be beter than any other - the tests
themselves doubtlessly conducted by the promoting company - conducted to ensure
at least something is superior about the product, even if it is only the colour.
These advertisments are worded carefully so that they are telling the "literal

Exaggerations And Reinforcement: A Male Version Of Women's Lib
Number of words: 621 - Number of pages: 3.... for following our natural animal drives? The female body is without a doubt a marvel to behold. The curves, the build, and the fact that there is just so much variety is unreal. I believe that anyone who says that the first impression they get of a person isn't collected from a visual standpoint has to be lying.
No matter how wrong it may seem to be to some, women have been dressing in short skirts, low cut blouses, and tight jeans for some time. What's was the reason behind it all? To impress us men, to make us take notice. Now that we're really paying attention, we're being cens .....

Two Views On The Confederate Flag’s Controversial Issue
Number of words: 778 - Number of pages: 3.... gray and even red, but so did Confederates who were fighting for General Beauregard. To add to the confusion, both sides had flags that strongly resembled one another. Neither army could, at a distance, distinguish the Red, White and Blue of the Union's Stars and Stripes from the Confederacy's Stars and Bars (which had been patterned after the flag of the original thirteen American Colonies). All these similarities, and the need to establish some unique identity, ultimately gave birth to what is known today as the Confederate Battle Flag.
The Battle Flag was patterned after the cross o .....

Chivalry
Number of words: 782 - Number of pages: 3.... training for knighthood began. As a page, the boy would be tutored in
Latin and French, but he devoted most of his time to physical exersice, and
duties. A page was educated in wrestling, tilting with spears, and military
exercises that were done on horseback. He was also taught dancing and playing
of musical instruments in their leisure time. As a page, a boy was taught how
to carve and serve food as a waiter, and other services around the castle. It
was his duty to help the master of the castle in anyway needed. These tasks
were not hard labor, but simply prepared him for what was .....

Swinger's Not Just On Playgrounds Anymore
Number of words: 1774 - Number of pages: 7.... something new. One of
the most common misconceptions is that people come just to have sex. However,
this is an option at Dave and Dawn's club. Their club is known as an ‘on-site'
club. This means that Dave and Dawn provide bedrooms for their members'
enjoyment.
"Ours is an on-premise club. We have bedrooms where sex does take place,
but only if it is consensual. We do not force our activities on anyone," Dave
said.
Dave adds that having sex is something most people associate with a
swing club, but often this is not true.

Morality: The Pre-existing And Universal Code
Number of words: 1387 - Number of pages: 6.... today and should be morally right three thousand years from now. Only
with universal principles can we as collective society discover what is right,
what is wrong, and what is best, therefore there exists not modern morality but
simply morality.
An empirical philosopher, W.T. Stace, argues that if we believe all
morals are culturally relative, it is impossible for us to judge what is best.
Although admitting he does not know what is best, he concludes that it is the
responsibility of man to discover what is. He does not dispute that moral
customs and moral ideas differ from country t .....

The Subject Of Equality And Justification Of Social Hierarchy
Number of words: 1413 - Number of pages: 6.... superior world power but still try to live by the belief that “all men are created equal.”
Although some people truly felt that this nation must have a social hierarchy in order to stay competitive with foreign powers, in the nineteenth century many people began to express their concern that minorities and women weren’t allow to participate in the American Dream. Was it really possible for this nation to practice the belief that “all men are created equal?” Could society adapt? It would probably take generations. Its a slow process to eliminate old ideas and believes that have bee .....
