Friendship Friendship is an important component of people’s personal and social life. Friendship is such a basic process that children begin to involve in complex social behaviors in the early part of the second year of their life and can distinguish friends from unfamiliar peers by the age of four (Hartup, 1983). Throughout life, notions of friendship and its specific functions change depending on a variety of factors such as age, gender, marital status, and work, but what remains constant…

depression, visionaries like Henry Kaiser and Milton Hershey saw the value in making investments in employee health and wellness. Hershey firmly believed that healthy employees are happier and more productive, so he built a state-of-the-art employee recreation complex. (Take Care Health, 2015). In 1968, the roots of today’s Take Care Health Employer Solutions took shape with the formation of Corporate Dimensions and Meridian Health. In 1991, Whole Health Management was formed with a strong…

civets, and bearcats(72). Although blowpipe hunting was done by both men and women, the men were the main ones hunting the larger game and bringing back food. The women would hunt the smaller game like squirrels and birds, and would often hunt for recreation rather than specifically for food. Because of this, the procurement of meat was mostly depended upon by men and in…

I believe that the Zeffirelli version does a better job of presenting the original Shakespeare play. While lines were slightly changed, and certain scenes were deleted, or added, this version is a more classic, and traditional retelling of Romeo and Juliet. One reason why this version is better, is because of the production, and the ways in which the scenes were depicted. In the modern version, the scenes were exaggerated to an extent where they became too cheesy, and extreme. While it followed…

Dog park's would especially be benifical in cities, beings the amount of property space citizen's reside in is so little, due to the greater amount of population, as well as the housing addition's being apartment units. However, dog park's would be just as benifical in small town's. Yard space is more available in smaller town's. There isn't as much of a demand having to require as small of living space in what cities do. Dog park's benifit in many ways, such as exercise, less pour…

In my role as the Bilingual Outreach Coordinator for San Benito County, I’m tasked with the responsibility to recruit, train, and retain an active high school poll worker database (over 150). The database is used to employ poll workers, surveyors, interpreters, and outreach volunteers. Unfortunately, there is not enough known about best practices in this area, and there is no uniformity throughout the programs. Often outreach work consists of trial and error. I’ve found over the past years that…

My utopia represents two main themes, shared public spaces and facilities and environmentalism and preservation. My utopia would preserve the look of modern, present-day society but build upon it and attempt to fix the ways in which our modern world is flawed. Public spaces and facilities are a major component of my utopia. Firstly, my utopia will feature free health care. Individuals have the right to free and efficient health care. I chose an image of Children’s Hospital in Phoenix because it…

Camp Widjiwagan (Rough Draft) Albus Dumbledore once said, “It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live.” Often, when summer comes around, many kids begin to dream about summer camp. Some of those kids actually get to live those dreams like I did, at Camp Widjiwagan, this summer. It was one week of a Harry Potter themed, outdoors day camp. Camp Widjiwagan was one of the best camps I’ve been to complete with fun and new learning experiences from the new and different people, to all the…

Living in Richmond, KY for nearly two years, three places where food can be purchased are Meijer, Kroger and Wal-Mart. Meijer is located in a nice part of town. From my observation, Meijer ambiance is great, and the customers are slightly higher income and older age. Meijer has a lot of whole grains and organic options with great quality fruits and vegetables. Kroger is also located in a nice part of town. The selection at Kroger varies, and the customers are average income young adults. Kroger…

It is not the kind of news you expect when you are in Disneyland and what you’d like to see are mascots. But recently, the real thing showed up that turned the fantasy land into a realistic nightmare. The body of a 2 year old toddler, from Nemaska, was mauled and dragged into the lake by an alligator at Walt Disney World, Florida. According to CNN, the body has been recovered later in the afternoon. It’s not the usual alligator you’d see walking around signing autographs or taking selifes with…
