... to man's commercialization, Everest seems to stick out the most. It was in 1922 that the first attempt was made to climb the highest mountain in the world. It wasn't until 1953, however, that a summit was actually successful, thus creating a beginning for mountaineering in Nepal. The start of the tourist industry became a very important asset to the Nepalese economy. The foreign exchange was one of the primary sources of earning for the people and government. This happened to be one of the few positives that came along with the commercialization of Mount Everest. One of the articles I focused on the most is ti ...

... a wrong choice. Waldman debated on the growing forms of religious denomination and news periodicals.

Cloning humans became more than a possibility after Ian Wilmut’s announcement in February 1997, that a healthy sheep named Dolly had been cloned from an adult cell (Reilly 289). Less than a year after Wilmut’s discovery, the physicist Richard Seed said in a radio interview that he is planning to set up a private clinic for cloning human beings (Stock 61). The immediate response of the media and even of the president of the United States was hysterical and even more explosi ...

... Reactions to stress vary with the child’s stage of development, ability to cope, the length of time the stressor continues, intensity of the stressor, and the degree of support from family, friends, and community. The two most frequent indicators that children are stressed are change in behaviors and regression of behaviors.

... not quite as strong as we would assume. I mean, would it be impossible for some one not to cheat on a test if they could, even if they were getting a D in the class?... (the answer is yes), would it be impossible for some one to not take a million dollars if they found it? Even if the answer is, "Only Ghandi" it is still yes. Trying to get rid of temptation is like trying to fix a leaky boat by draining the ocean. A lot of people would have us believe that if God is all powerful, he is not all good, and if he is all good, he is not all powerful. I disagree. Some people would have tell you that life is abou ...

... at the affidavit of the trial, what exactly Socrates was being accused with: "Socrates does injustice and is meddlesome, by investigating the things under the earth and the heavenly things, and by making the weaker speech the stronger, and by teaching others these same things."1 In breaking this charge down, we see that it is two-fold. Firstly, Socrates is charges with impiety, a person who does not believe in the state gods of Athens and, not only that, but by its literal meaning, does not believe in the authority of gods at all. To this, Socrates seems baffled. He states that the reason behind the 'criminal meddl ...

... hair, I froze in my seat as everyone on the dance floor froze in mid air. My heart stopped as I followed the camera around the frozen dancers. The new perception heightened the dancing energy. The GAP Khakis sign invaded the screen for a few seconds and the screen went blank. Was this the work of an evil genius trying to get my attention so that I could be brainwashed into buying a product? Could it perhaps be simply one artist communicating a new sense of beauty to the whole world, regardless of the product I was deeply affected by the strange time and space rendered in front of me in thirty seconds. Commercial ...
