of such a concrete presence. Imperative is to stress that I mean “concrete” in two senses: the material (the cement of the moulding) in which this particular marsupial was made and hung on the lateral outer wall of the local bar, facing the main square; and its categorical ubiquity. The kangaroo was there and I could fantasize that it has been –from immemorial times- monitoring every movement in this community: from the unperceived panting of a fly to the exact instant of the crunching echo of…

“You talked to Jenna.” His eyes dropped to the floor. It was strange to view Fredrick all shameful and insecure. His hands combed through his hair. “It’s hard. The matching is even hard for me and I at least ended up with my soul mate, but Jenna really feels awful about last night,” I said, hoping his mood would change. “It’s not her,” he broke in.

30% of the subjects claimed that they have encountered 9 types of online bullying in the previous month, which point out that these types of aggressive behavior in the online society are what we call recurring behavior.

The first analysis shows the bivariate relationship of the collapsed extraversion and hourly wages. The purposes of the second and the third analyses are to investigate the role of occupations in the relationship of extraversion and hourly wages. Table 2 shows the ANOVA result of hourly wages by extraversion. I collapse extraversion into five groups. The…
Current daycare costs far exceed the income of parents, leading them to resort to alternative care providers. The introduction of a pilot program may resolve space shortages, but may also hold potential as revealed in McLaren, Zarrabi, Dutton, Auld, & Emery’s 2012 article regarding the association between care type and change in childhood obesity. With slight adjustments, the pilot project could influence greater health outcomes than initially anticipated. In November 2016, Albertan Premier,…

When people try to protect against change they make no progress or improvement in their…
