... for the official Seal of Guam. The dimensions of the flag are thirty-four inches by sixty inches with a three inch red border all around. Set within the red border is dark blue and in the center is an oval shape that measures twenty-six inches by seventeen inches with a one inch red border. The oval is filled with symbols that represents the people of Guam and its rich culture and heritage. The river channel flows into the sea and is surrounded by unfertile yellow orange sand on each side. To the right of the oval sits a coconut tree with its brown trunk slightly bent to the left and then straightened into the sky. The green fronds on the tree spreads into the sk ...

... their favourite players and obediently echoing every cheer flashed on the electronic scoreboard. Baseball fans are really fascinated by trivia. Every day, they turn to the sports page and study last night’s statistics. They simply have to see who has extended his hitting streak and how many strikeouts the winning pitcher recorded. Their bookshelves are crammed with record books, team yearbooks, and baseball almanacs. They delight in remembering such significant facts as who was the last left-handed third baseman to hit into an inning-ending double play in the fifth game of the play-offs. Last of all, baseball fans are insanely loyal to the team of their choic ...

... with the survey that says it doesn't work. Communicate. If you can't do that, call the engagement off. Here are some topics for exploration before deciding on marriage: · How much time do we spend together? · Do I need permission to hang out with the friends you hate? · Who keeps track of the money? · Who decides how to spend it? · How often does your family come for dinner? · Do they help clean up? · To whom do we lend money? (Your chronically out-of-work sister? Does she qualify as a charitable tax deduction?) · How much of your mother's approval do we need when making decisions? · Who explains to your father why we no longer want to spend summers at the cabin fis ...

... her body. When the little ones are running and screaming in the hallway, they are told to "walk slowly and play quietly". Suddenly, we have created well-mannered, soft-spoken, and gracefully striding creatures. Have we really? Or are we creating the opposite of what we intended? The most important rules of parenting are often unknown, or overlooked: 1. Respect Your Child. Treat your child the way you want to be treated. The fact that Tommy's body is smaller doesn't make him less of a person. He has feelings, concerns, and opinions. Value, don't invalidate them. No child is ever too small to deserve your respect. 2. Grant Your Child the Right to Own. Once you hav ...

... Therefore, schools must also use technology to improve the educational process. School systems often consider purchasing a computer network, and justify its purchase by applying it to routine administrative tasks, such as attendance records and grading. While these tasks are very important, they only show a small part of what technology can do for a school. Technology must go further than simply keeping attendance; it must focus on keeping students interested and productive. Since computers and the Internet have expanded in such a way in which education can be delivered to students, it is currently possible to engage in "distance education through the Internet. ...

... ‘sticky’ and ‘clinging’, conveys a sense of desolation. McBain then focuses on the visual ‘nastiness’, spraying sensory feelings throughout the next four lines, ‘off-white brilliance’, ‘light that is dizzying’ and ‘shimmer of blue’, all bring with them feelings of intense light, and a harsh, unnatural environment. The inseparable ideas of ‘heat’ and ‘July’ give the piece a secure foundation on which the detail builds. This structural security, reinforced by three other lines also set in isolation, gives McBain’s writing an uncompromising edge, thus compleme ...

... even hold jobs, how are they to have any spending money? The NCAA has recently tried to alleviate this by allowing students with scholarships to hold jobs that pay a maximum of $2,000 a year. This way students can have enough spending money to go to movies, buy pizza or just have some miscellaneous spending money. But many are opposed to this new rule. Douglas J Lany writes that "the problem is that a $2000 check for a job, even if work is not part of the job description, can't compete with a $2000 check plus $10,000 in cash." He is saying that the problem is not the $2,000 job, but the $10,000 dollars the agents will give to athletes as bribes. He says the m ...

... the economy, health, cultural development and the environment. Transportation would greatly be affected if we did not have cars. Especially in America since automobiles are the number one source of transportation. Life of everyday Americans would be slowed down. Children getting to school and employees getting to work would be a much harder task. The economy would be hurt if we did not have cars. Manufacturers would have a harder time transporting their goods. Another way of moving goods from city to city would need to be found. Also, cultural development would be affected if their were no cars. There would be more room for people to walk and cities w ...

... have shown that a couple with two or more college degrees among them are more likely to have a Downs baby then that of a couple of high school drop outs. This odd occurrence has lead to more affluent families to give birth to one or more Downs babies. The limitations facing a Downs child will affect the child’s whole life and it is the environmental circumstances around him that determine how he fares in life. Included in these circumstances are his family and their unity and maybe most importantly his level of education. In our society education plays a big part in all we do and this serves no difference for the Downs child. As we look back in time, we find ...

... times before, there was much controversy over this one. Michigan fans thought that Michigan should be the sole possessor of the crown, and Husker fans thought the same for Nebraska. To avoid more co-champions in the future, and to guarantee a match-up between the top two teams in the nation each year, a new system was setup prior to the 1998 season. This new system setup by ABC Sports and the NCAA is called the Bowl Championship Series or BCS for short. The Bowl Championship Series is a point system that selects what college football teams will play in one of the four major bowls. The bowls in the BCS include: the Rose Bowl, the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, the Nokia ...
