... rating of 14+ I do not see why wrestling is such a problem. In the first place 10 year
olds are not supposed to be watching this, so why is their a problem. If their parents let them, that is their
choice, and if the see that the children are influenced by wrestling in a negative way then they should not let
them watch it anymore. Teens, at least most of them are mature enough to take wrestling as more of a soap
opera than a sport, which is exactly what it is supposed to be.
What I think professional wrestling to do, is to tone down, just a bit. In a recent study of 50
episodes of RAW by Indiana University ...

Subliminal Advertising 2
... mind. Subliminal advertising first became publicized in nineteen fifty seven when Jim Vicary flashed “drink Coca-Cola” and “eat popcorn” on a movie screen so that it could not be consciously seen, but subconsciously absorbed (Lechnar 3). Vicary reported an increase in the sale of popcorn and Coca-Cola as a result of his subliminal messages. He was later questioned about his results. He had no evidence of his findings and admitted his results were false. This example brought the publics attention to the power that advertisers held over them.
In nineteen seventy nine about fifty ...

Arches And Vaults In Architecture

lateral thrust, was developed to connect a greater distance between two
supports than a single horizontal beam, or lintel, could bridge. Since the
19th century, arches have also been made of single, curved spans of iron,
steel, or reinforced concrete.
The masonry arch has many elements. Its supports may be walls, piers, or
columns, and the capstones from which it springs are known as imposts. The
upper part of the arch is the crown, the portions near the impost are the
haunches, its wedge-shaped segments are voussoirs, and the central or
crowning voussoir is the keystone. The inner edge of the arch is the

Our Way Is Not The Only Way
... choice a mother makes in feeding her baby will also determine how healthy the baby is, the kind of foods the mother chooses to eat and the time she has for herself and her family. Both offer many differences while trying to reach a common goal, the well being of the baby.
The primary benefit of breast milk is nutritional. Human milk contains just the right amount of fatty acids, lactose, water, and amino acids for human digestion, brain development, and growth. Breast-fed babies have fewer illnesses because human milk transfers to the infant a mother's antibodies to disease. Nursing provides an additional immun ...

Sci-fi Gibberish Or A Glance A
... as such?
The answer probably lies in the conservatism of the senile members of our society who are sickly attached to biblical legends. Times do change, people do change, so why can't we accept the variation of a myth?
Sci-fi, as a part of mythology, is a reflector of our comprehension and the fruits of self-exploration. As myths, sci-fi stories don't have to be specimens of refined literature. Its literary form is not the essence. As a famous psychologist Carl Gustav Jung has put in his works, a myth is like a mirror, reflecting the messages sent by our subconsciousness to our mind, projecting them through the ...

The Disease Of Masturbation
... and nineteenth century masturbation was thought to produce the signs and symptoms of a dangerous disease: “Disease is neither an objective entity nor a concept of a single definition, there is not, nor need be, one concept of disease (UWO, p.241).” The problem with Englehardt’s article is our health system is that of the biomedical model. The biomedical model does not recognize masturbation as a disease. It states that “disease is a biological deviation from the norm that can be explained scientifically” (Charland). Masturbation has not been proven to fit into either category. Masturba ...

To What Extent Does The Nature Of Language Illuminate Our Understanding Of The Relation Between Knowledge Of Ourselves And Knowledge Of Others?
... Wittgenstein says that “..a wheel that can be turned
though nothing else moves with it is not part of the mechanism.”1 The idea of
a uniquely personal language is not relevant here and so will not be discussed
further.
Language is a system of symbols which represent thoughts, perceptions and a
multitude of other mental events. Although the meaning of a given word or
expression is by no means fixed, there is a sufficiently high degree of
consensus in most cases to ensure that our thoughts are to a great extent
communicable. This essay will concentrate on two aspects of language. Firstly
that it gives ...

The Cheese We Eat
... production made cheese an abundant food product that became
available in supermarkets all over the world. Before the mechanical age
began cheese was mostly produced in the farmhouse. The farmer would milk
his cows and use some of the extra milk to make cheese. This way none of
the valuable nutrient was wasted, since milk cannot be stored and cheese
can. The oldest cheese making artifacts found date back from 2000 BC. It
is thought that man stumbled on cheese accidentally. It would have been
produced when milk being carried in the stomachs of cows reacted with
enzymes in the wall of the dead animals stomach. ...
