... few studies that have looked at women and men in comparable managerial roles have discovered more similarities than differences across sexes" (Catalyst, 1986). A test bank from "thousands of managers and professionals in management development programs from 1978 to 1986" was cited as another reason why they believe there are few differences between male and female executives. The tests revealed that executive men and women scored equally on most areas and that executive women are just as capable at leading, influencing, and motivating groups, as well as analyzing problems. The authors go on to show that, despite ...

... wish to be named, almost had her house foreclosed on. If not for the service provided by the factoring companies she would have lost it. Another man, who also wished to not release his name, secured funds through a factoring company to expand his own business, and as a result he is more successful than ever. It is obvious that the factoring companies have provided a valuable service for some, but lets take a look at the dissatisfied customers. Orion Olson was injured at the age of three by a severe dog bite causing vision and neurological problems. When he turned eighteen he was already homeless but soon recei ...

... also established a problem with benefits being disbursed not only to a family its entire life time, but to the many generations to follow that family line. The consists of two major ideas. First, there is revolutionary change in basic goals set by the federal government. Second, a dramatic change turning what used to be a federal, centralized system over to the states. At this point welfare rules require most recipients to work within two years of receiving assistance, limit most assistance to five years total, and let states establish family duration by denying additional benefits to mothers for child ...

... be justifyably partriarchal amoung certain social orders, such as a famous quote "Beauty but no brains." The goals' main objective was marriage before a person reached her twenties and right after education stopped. This playing an important role in constructivism--to borrow a generally recognizable label for convenience sake. (Richard A. Rogers, "Constructivism, Feminism and Nature: Does Language Have to In-Form?") It was convenient for a woman to have no education, but be attractive and get married at a young age. A man to take care of their needs, but did they really? With that question, I bring abo ...

... exists because God allows it, and moral evil exists because God has given us freedom of choice. Evil has been looked at in many different ways throughout the years. Philosophers like Socrates and Plato believed evil was a matter of ignorance. Ancient Persians saw good and evil as two principles, "engaged in a perpetual struggle."(Collier) In reality, evil is merely the absence of good. "The essence of all reality is good, evil is merely the faulty reflection of reality found in a world of particulars."(Funk & Wagnalls) There can be many different types of evil. Two of such types are moral evil and natural evil. Nat ...

... loyalty, protection, and the media. First of all, most teens become attracted to gangs by peer pressure and greed. Estimamates show that forty percent of all gang members joined because their friends influenced them (Solution for a new year 1996). Teen gangsters will pressure peers into becoming part of a gang by making it sound glamorous. Recruiters will often promise popularity in exchange for their loyalty. Although most gang members find popularity, it often means losing close friends to rival gangs. Another crucial factor is the need for money. A 6 year old kid, who is not yet a member, receives impressi ...

... reach the stage of challenging their constitutions. The name "Christian Democratic Party," common in Europe, refers to moral roots, not to theocratic ambitions. The consequence of this separation of church and state is that political contention is not poisoned by religious hatred. There is one exception, Islam, a theocracy which has savaged the world for over a thousand years. Its religious doctrine is that church and state are one and that canon law and civil law are one. It periodically believes that unbelievers must be converted or conquered and that hating infidels is a virtue and killing an infidel is a tic ...

... tube for a child's behavior; it's a quick and easily identified source of violence within a youths confined world. The TV many times is identified as the cause of aggressive acts to avoid dealing with other underlying issues. Society today has an entire array of different afflictions that plague us from day to day. The television is of very little significance alongside the landfill of troubles that influence children today. Besides, trying to get networks to cut out violence and aggression entirely would be like trying to get Jesus Christ to write a top ten list of reasons why Christianity sucks. (It's not going ...

... endorse the new standard because their tax money is being used for their child's education, and not being used for teaching children in another language. Results are evident even though the ESL program has been used for only two years. The ESL method is more effective because of the removal of flaws such as unnecessary costs to the taxpayer, slower advancement in grade level, and the detrimental effect to education in California. The primary fault of the old system was that California taxpayers were not receiving fair representation. In general, most taxpayers were English speaking, and consequently wante ...

... comprehensive sexual health information in school to support their efforts at home. Now all we have to do is make this happen, because believe it or not, 98% of parents say they need help in talking to their children about sex. 83% of teens who give birth are low-income or poor. Maybe these teens can’t afford to learn more about sex. We need to teach this in more of our schools! The average teen spends 23 hours per week watching TV. Prime time TV contains roughly three sexual acts PER hour! Studies have proven that this viewing is associated with sexually permissive attitudes and behaviors. Until we, as a society, ...
