631 words
Expectations are something we all encounter. Some
of us rise up to them and reach beyond those that
are set, some of us ignore the expectations that
are constantly brought up in society, and some
people cringe at the thought of even trying to
meet them. From the day that I was born my parents
told me that average meeting societies criteria
for everything -- was not good enough. I grew up
in an environment that was full of expectations.
My parents set a high standard of performance for
everything...

Light Bulb Grolier Multimedia
1,351 words
On October 22, 1879 Thomas Edison created the
electric light or what we know of it today as the
light bulb. To make a statement like this that
Thomas Edison invented the light bulb is both a
huge hyperbole and a huge understatement all at
the same time. A more correct view is that he
perfected a practical light bulb and that his real
plan and accomplishment was the invention of an
electrical system to produce and distribute
electrical power. He did in fact invent a light
bulb with the correct fi...

Fall In Love Men And Women
1,978 words
This topic is also well discussed in many of the
standard textbooks, but a bit unevenly and a bit
oddly. Thus Haralambos and Holborn (1990), or
Barnard and Burgess (1996) have good sections
specifically on gender and educational
achievement. However, rather strangely, the
section on education is treated almost entirely as
a sort of empirical matter and not linked very
well to the other admirable sections on gender
generally, or gender in the family or work
sections. This is especially odd in the...
