... they joined in the persecution of the rebels. Shed a bit of their indifferance to the world to hunt down and destroy the "malicious intruders" who endangered the secrecy of secrets too dirty to be shown to the public. "These people could probably see how much time you spend last year on phone---!" the media screamed, inciting the vulgar to action. "Hackers might be able to look at your public records!" another "news" organization cried. They were afraid of having anyone but Phil, the socially inept record-keeper, knowing thier deep, dark traffic violation and burned at the technological stake. The pople h ...

... that are unique of the dominant culture. They may have values that are not consistent, or outwardly reject the culture as a whole, yet at the same time they are still able to maintain their position within the firm.

The perception is due to the fact that in many organizations the culture can act as a barrier to the employee to gain status within the organization. This perception may have also had a lot to due with the nature of the posit ...

... laws with a single thought. Eventually we find that angels cannot work miracles, but they can perform many special effects that appear miraculous, such as protecting Daniel from the lions in Daniel 6. When angels appear to man, they usually appear with wings, but the wings are not the method of locomotion. The angels seem to slip in and out of the fourth dimension; thus travel is more or less instantaneous. The primary general duty of angels is as messengers of God. (The word "angel" means messenger in Greek.) But angels can do God's chores, such as busting Peter out of jail in Acts 5, or dest ...

... we wear the tusks of the last few of their species on our arms, and we pour cosmetic products into their eyes, rectums or vaginas to determine the harmful effects they might cause on humans, even though the physiological differentiation between humans and the animals they use is durastic. On a daily basis most people do not see their own degree of unintentional support towards this global dilemma, but when compiled on paper one must question how mankind can, with conscience, commit these acts which shame us as human beings. Animals possess the same kinds of feelings and emotions as human beings, and without anesthes ...

... cases of rape have actually increased. Rape is an epidemic that is slowly plaguing our entire nation, and unless some drastic action is taken immediately, this epidemic may never be cured. If we are truly interested in having our nation cleansed of this disease, we must begin by removing from our minds the notion that rape occurs only among the poor. When asked to comment on the brutality of rape, Roger Crafts, the Dean of "Student Affairs" at Brandeis University said: "I do not think that we have a significant problem here because we have a sophisticated and intelligent group of students" (Sweet 93). Dean Crafts ...

... to what drugs to take, and when, and how " (Harris 14). The variety and number of drugs available is enormous. The two main types of drugs available are physically enhancing and mentally enhancing drugs. Both types have the most deadliest consequence in common, death. Each type has its own pros and cons. Yes, there are some positive effects, but they are not worth the later consequences. Some athletes need help to maintain a mental edge on their game and opponents. Some need help getting psyched up before a game. Those athletes that do, turn to drugs. The most used drugs that athletes turn to are ...

... they have recently signed star center Shaquille O'Neal, the biggest force in the league. Now that they Shaq, Magic Johnson will unretire (again), because he feels that with Shaq, Nick Van Exel, Cedric Ceballos, Eddie Jones, and Kobie Bryant, they will finally be a contender for the title. They have drafted Derek Fisher, he is a strong player and shows good leadership, but he will mainly serve as Van Exels backup. Finally, the Houston Rockets. They have Hakeem Olujuwon, Clyde Drexler, and guess who? Charles, yes, Charles Barkley, the man from Phoenix, the round mound of rebound. They have alsodrafted Othell ...

... organization, and to start at the lowest level." To all of us Janes and Joes like this manager at the U.S. Customs Service: "I'm dealing with eight or nine major change efforts right now. Communication is intertwined with all of them. None of them will succeed without effective communication." Yet all of us view communication differently. Almost all of you (91 percent of all communicators) define your roles as messengers in the pipeline -- the ability to get those change announcements and newsletters out with skillfully managed messages, videos produced, management to show up at town meetings saying the right th ...

... In order to create a market for their product they attempt to make women feel imperfect about their own bodies through advertisement. Advertisers manipulate women into thinking their value is dependent on their physical appearance. An overweight person is seen as lazy. Women, especially, are told that their efforts to exercise and to stay fit will be rewarded by success in their personal and professional lives. If they fail at the idea they are encouraged to try harder. The cruel thing is that the social requirement that we achieve the "ideal weight" is based on the presumption that we can completely control our ...

Second, the speaker uses “the definite description to refer to something, and call this use the referential use of a definite description.�2 Donnellan asserts that there are two uses of definite descriptions that he will call the attributive use and the referential use. A speaker exercising the attributive use of definite descriptions asserts something about “whoever or whatever is the so-and-so�, whereas a speaker using a definite description referentially ...
