Teenage Rights
... wont. Either way you will hear our voice. We are of millions in size and will not fall to the beck, call, and command of those who only hold age higher than us.
Inside this document of our complaints, compliments, and worries you will hear how the young leaders feel and suffer. Points will be explained and many voices will talk. This is not just the viewpoint of me, but that of the entire generation around me. I am just the “message bearer.” Take offense to the following if you wish. Though this is not meant to offend, it is meant to constructively criticize. We are here not to exploit ourselves within the name of heroes. We are here to under ...

Smartcards
... information in electronic form that can be easily, securely and accurately accessed by all sorts of electronic data processing equipment.
Some are smarter than others, the smartness of a card depends on the complexity of the embedded processor, as well as the software that is installed on the chip. Even the simplest cards, like the pay phone cards, are smart enough that they are virtually impossible to copy or falsify. However, the simplest do not provide any security against unauthorized use. In other words, if you lose your pay phone card, anyone else can use it. There are of course smarter cards that provide such security by incorporating a password or eve ...

Social Perception
... qualities. But in reality, I am more of an introvert than the opposite. I do not drink, neither do I smoke.
Despite my academic achievements and fluency in the English language, several people still stereotype me as an "Ah-Beng", which is basically the Hokkien translation of a punk. From my feedback, some people actually consider me quite a benevolent person. I'm amiable by nature, even I do not realise it. Even so, I sometimes, am still discriminated because I have long hair. Many young people out there have similar hairstyles as I do, but my relatives and parents don't seem to understand that a person's characteristics, personality or academic capabilities, has ...

Aristotle Defination Of Friendship
... of good as long as both parties of a friendship are considered good. Therefore, the role of friendship in a society is to promote goodness between all parties involved in it.
As previously mentioned, Aristotle has identified three different types of friendships. The first is friendship based on utility. This is a friendship in which both parties become involved with each other for their own personal benefit. An example would be a working relationship with an individual. These are people who do not spend much time together, possibly because they do not like each other, and therefore feel no need to associate with one another unless they are mutually useful. The ...

Observing Communications
... between men and women in various other social settings as well. Consider, for example, those individuals employed in customer service-related Jobs. While in JC Penny, I noticed that female customer service representatives were more apt to offer immediate friendly assistance than the male reps. Men are not as cocky nor as confident in this sort of situation; their eyes tend to dart around the area of the store while the eyes of a women remain focused upon the eyes of the customer. The men seem to communicate with a lot less smiles. Apparently they have to get past a certain “ice-breaking” point before they will feel comfortable with a genuine look of ...

... is the approach of product/service towards consumer. Off-line the consumer is told to “check out” the new store next door, but online the consumer checks out what he wants.

One of the features about surfing on the net is that one normally surfs on the page he or she wants, therefore the consumer almost gathers the total control of what to buy, choose, compare with, or how much information to retrieve. This change brings the first difficulty for companies, the bargain of a product. O ...

The Birth Of An American Super
... made a number of attempts creating the Superman character. The first attempt utilized a bald middle aged man with advanced mental abilities. The next attempt was closer to the Superman we now know. He was younger and had hair but was not an alien with super powers. “The ultimate version of Superman was born one night in 1934, when Siegel found new ideas coming so fast that he couldn’t sleep” (Daniels 21). Seigel and Shuster collaborated on these ideas and created comic strips created for the Sunday comics.
Seigel’s new Superman came from a planet called Krypton. “This was the first benevolent alien created” (Daniels 21). ...
