... loans available. (Gates, McDaniel; 1999) In
our situation this is not the case. In addition,
stratification can be time consuming because of
the time required to obtain the necessary
information. Again this doesnt affect our research
because the segmenting information is internal and
readily available. Once the means of sampling has
been established you can determine the size of the
sample by working with management and the
designated objectives. (See Appendix Ba for

his research? Both of these questions arose to me
after reading the two articles: Malnutrition: An
Intellectual Odyssey by David Seckler and Small
but Healthy by Gretel H Pelto and Perth J. Pelto.
In the next couple of pages I hope to compare and
contrast these two articles by examining both
hypothesis by each. Then, Im going to give my

True Or False Nature Of Reality
1,904 words
The question as to whether scientific theories can
be shown to be true or false is a complex one. The
answer depends on one's interpretation of the
meaning of theory. To what does it refer? Is its
role to reveal the nature of reality, or is it
merely a human construct? In which case what do we
mean by truth? Is it an accurate description of
reality, or does it simply refer to a successful
theory that produces accurate predictions? Duhem

non-metaphysical st...

based on how an elderly is taken care of, and by
whom they are given the care from. So many factors
affect this situation though. Situations that may
depend on this decision may include marital
status, age, and what not. The information at hand
though, is how marital status affects the decision
on care for these elderly. This kind of
information leads...

Drinking has become an increasing problem in our
society. Many people now see drinking as a norm.
Lisa McIntyre, author of The Practical Skeptic
states that, For one thing, we know that norms

Human Evolution: the water theory. Elaine Morgan
The crucial question about human evolution is why
humans differ so strikingly from the African apes
despite their close genetic relationship. Most
Darwinists would agree that such differences are
usually attributable to differing environmental
pressures; and hence that our ancestors at some
stage probably occupied a significantly different
habitat from the ancestor of the gorilla and the
chimpanzee. For the last half-century it has been
generally ...

Statistics are used everyday in life, and are very
important in the everyday world. One important use
of statistics is to summarize a collection of data
in a clear and understandable way. For example, if

college, How might these measurements be
summarized? There are two basic methods: numerical
and graphical. Using the numerical approach one

Squirrel Behavior Relative To Human Contact
Garrett Gabel 12 / 14 / 00 Abstract As our
population expands and cities grow and spread out
into the country, the line between wilderness and
civilization becomes thinner and thinner. The
relationship between animals and humans becomes
more and more strained, and the understanding of
animal behavior in the presence of man becomes
increasingly important. A great example of a
species that has successfully adapted to life with
humans is the gray squirrel...
