- Writing an eBook About the Nairobi Slums By : Lance Winslow
Not long ago I did a comprehensive study on the Nairobi Slums reading about 30 research papers, 100s of articles and all the NGO and government website information on this subject. There are reams of information and most of it all says the same thing. This is one of the largest humanitarian challenges in the World's Urban Slums. - Women in Literature By : Mary Anne Winslow
In the following article I am going to discuss the role of a woman and her place in society based on two novels. These novels have had a pretty big significance when they were published as the women of that time had a minor role in society and were subordinate to men in any way and aspect. It is important to picture a woman as an individual on the inside and show her inner world in detail because this will help the society to understand women better and understand their behaviour in certain situations. - With Godlike Light Our Personalization In Other Universe By : Sorin Cerin
Both, the future and the past are close to the being that lives its life in its own Illusion of Life! If the close future had not appeared more distant than the close past, the being would be for the past and not for the future, and this would determine it to disappeared from this Life Illusion and to be born again with a different one and not to live, hoping in a future. It would be for the past.This game, maybe cynical but very good for the being, took it the so wanted meaning of the self-awareness for the animal that has no past or future even in the most developed cases. Everything comes down to a past that consists in the cover of essential necessities. These essential necessities appear also to the man. Because of this, the man has a relationship with the animal even if he developed a conscious totally different from that of the animal through the two times, namely the future and the past. However much the man had liked God to become, he wouldn’t be able to be if he was animal in the same time! Never a God will be animal! - William Shakespeare By : Aaron Schwartz
William Shakespeare is customary regarded to be the finest dramatist the world has ever seen and the greatest poet who has created his plays in the English language.

Keleher's Masterpieces By : William Keleher
William A. Keleher was unequivocally a multi-faceted individual. While other great people focused on a single field of expertise, Keleher begged to differ. Yes, it is true that he was essentially a lawyer and he did excel in his field, no doubt. However, he did not want to restrain his potential to merely a single field. Instead, he chose to be versatile, something many of us cannot be in our entire life. - William A Keleher: The Unknown Facts By : William Keleher

By : Lance Winslow
There seems to be a huge debate in the United States whether or not we should reimburse African-Americans for the abuse during slavery. Why not give them millions of dollars each to make up for the problems that were caused any inequities, which occurred? Why not give all African-Americans restitution dollars for that terrible stain on our American heritage? - Why is It that No One Knows Anything About Trains? By : Michael W.P. Ball

Everyone has heard the Christian Saying; "Do not give a man a fish, teach him to fish" and for the most part this wisdom cannot be debated. Thus, we are all careful in the US to not just give free-hand-outs, but rather assist individuals and groups get back on their feet. Feeding the World's poor is a monumental task. There are over 1 Billion people living in Urban Slums throughout the World and 2 more Billion people in the living on less than 1.00 dollars per day. - What Would You Do About the Nairobi Slums? By : Lance Winslow

People approaching Washington divorces are often surprised by the deficiency of clear rules. People ask their lawyers, '' How much alimony do I have to pay?'' ''How much child support will I owe?'' How long I will have to pay?'' How much of my pension does she get?" With very few exceptions, Washington Divorce Online has found that the law itself cannot give you very precise answers to these questions. - Washington Divorce and Child Custody By : Pheonah Tiangson

William Aloysius Keleher was a multifaceted individual. No, it is no exaggeration, not an over-stretched truth either. It is a completely unadulterated fact. Why would one say that?

New immigrants who come to Canada from countries with cultures that are more like huge extended families - same language, same customs, same religion, same skin color - often have a rough ride. The loss of traditional comfort levels can give rise to a bad case of culture shock. - Urban Slums a Failure of Human Civilizations By : Lance Winslow
Today over one billion people live in Urban Slums on Earth and that number is rising at an alarming rate. In Kibera in Nairobi Kenya, some 800,000 people are living is severe conditions, including raw sewage and around 1,000s dying of HIV/AIDS. Kibera in Nairobi is merely one humanitarian crisis and there are many more like it Africa, Asia, South America and Indonesia. Africa had an estimated 14 million orphan children of HIV/AIDS victims and that was a figure from 2001, some believe the number now is nearly double if not triple today. Even without the AIDS crisis, 32.5 percent of the Earth's human population lives in Urban Slum areas with very similar living conditions. - Upgrading Living Conditions in Urban Slums By : Lance Winslow

Many people decry the homeless situation in the United States, yet fail to realize that the homeless rate in the United States per capita is one of the lowest if not the lowest in the World.

He cited the number of Homeless in America. - Traufett - English Literature Take on How to Fight Post 9/11 Hypocrisy By : Kathy Deisler
Written in 1664 Moliere ‘Traufett’ captures the spirit of its time – the beginning of ‘The age of Reasoning’. It is a satirical comedy aimed at religious bigotry. It is so much more relevant in the post September 11 world where environment around us has been marred with hatredness and religious fanaticism. - Transition—"Los Banditos" in The National Bank?

Burlesque and thoughts on costume setting in burlesque. - Thomas Hardy By : Aaron Schwartz
Thomas Hardy is one of he most outstanding English writers who was severely criticized during his life and was recognized as a real genius only later but it makes him, his life and his work, even more attractive for readers than many others. We have to admit that his literary work was very unusual for his time and could hardly be understood and accepted by critics. In my paper, I am going to focus on the biography of this prominent writer and some of his main works and first of all, it is necessary to study the biography of the writer and it would certainly help us realize what kind of person he was and what influenced his literary work because in my opinion there is always more or less strong link between the author’s personal life and his work. - Third World Economy By : Aaron Schwartz
Agriculture is very important branch of economy for the majority of developing countries. Production of the agricultural products is the main source of currency for developing countries and currency is necessary for buying some machines and equipment for development of agriculture.

Epic fantasy is not escapist literature just to be read for fun. It is a serious form of literature that tackles the big questions in a characters life (hence the epic). And in this way it helps us understand ourselves and helps us look at the big questions in our own lives. But epic fantasy uses one particular tool to help the hero find his way through the darkness of his challenges; and this tool doesn’t exist for us and this is where epic fantasy fails. - Theory Of The Nude In Art By : Richard Scott

Peru - a country with many rules mostly unenforced and a lot of rights, again mostly overlooked and unenforced when sought after. The youth of Peru are confused, if not down right torn between these dilemmas, adult behaviour (social comparison), and on what they should do. I've been asked the question by students from Radio Stations in Huancayo, to University Students at Saint Martin, in Lima. I think they want to do what is right, they need leadership, and they are influenced by adult actions, expectations, but what is right and wrong? A simple question, with many variables for them, I do believe. Let me give you an example: - The World Urban Slum Crisis and Committees By : Lance Winslow
One look at the Slum Crisis in Nairobi and one can see that this is a humanitarian crisis of epic proportions. Why is everything taking so long to fix? Well the city does not want the slums there calling them; "Illegal Settlements" and the non-profit organizations have taken this as a philosophical project to debate and have committee meetings around the world to "discuss" it. - The Wall By : Mary Anne Winslow
"Mending Wall" seems to be a straightforward poem about the relationship between two neighbors repairing a useless wall; but despite t it’s unsophisticated appearance, the poem contains many interesting metaphors. - The US Government should Match the Gates Buffet Foundation By : Lance Winslow
Most of us realize that our government could do a lot better with the way it distributes money to poor people. Remember the money that they are giving away; its taxpayers money and it is owned by the people. I believe the US citizens would agree to have the United States government match funds with the Gates Buffett foundation. - The United States is the Greatest Nation in Human History By : Lance Winslow
Believe it or not there are actually some people in the world who do not believe that the United States is the greatest nation in human history. In fact, the other day I was challenged on this issue in an online debate. The nice Arab lady who lives in Michigan said the United States was not the greatest nation and that there are greater nations in the Middle East. - The Truth about Small Non-Profit Groups Helping With HIV-AIDS in Africa By : Lance Winslow
If we look closely to all that is being done in Africa to combat HIV/AIDS the truth is not a lot. The population percentages in some parts of Africa with AIDS is so high the chances of contracting it are well over 80% and that means there is not a lot of hope. Many groups solicit monies from the public to assist in the combating of HIV/AIDS and yet when we look at the stats, well these groups as well-intentioned as they are fall miserably short. - The Theory of Names By : Sharon White

The disease and filth is ramped in Nairobi's slums and the task is overwhelming just to keep up. Non-profit groups are over taxed and it takes a lot of money to maintain a viable effort to help the people there. Even so, the slums of Nairobi are not completely dire nor do the people there feel absolutely down and out, there is a sense of perpetual optimism and "strong will" despite the conditions. - The Rut By : Ben Thomas
If we were to compare the state of computer entertainment with any stage of development in film, we are stuck in the cheap serials of the 1930s: repetitive plots, stock characters, and financially secure concepts. Two indie programmers are working to reset our paradigm entirely. - The Russian Orthodox Church And Its Relationship With Alaska By : Hal Granum
Beginning in the mid 1700's the Russian fur traders exploited and decimated the original Unangan people of the Aleutian Islands.

Poseidon is one of the more famous of the deities of ancient Greece. Here is an overview of who he was, what he did and his position the Pantheon. - The Religion of Terrorism By : Garima Mullick
In the contemporary world, religion is not a mark of spiritualism or peace but is becoming a mask of terrorism. The world, the empowered nations, the rich, the poor, no one today can easily comprehend the real motive of terrorism in our society. We are living each day amidst the grave possibilities of being terror stricken. Each day as it begins with new dusk also rises with the news of wars, terrorism hitting every corner of the world, demolishing people and societies. The real outcome of all this is the extinction of human life on this planet or may be the planet itself. - The Regency Debutante-A Feast of Fictional Heroines By : Linore Rose Burkard
The Regency debutante comes in very handy for authors like me, even though she is as individual as the writers who create her. She can appear in just about all shapes and sizes-within a framework of having the ability to attract "Mr. Right," of course. (In other words, she can be anything as long as it's attractive enough for the purposes of a romance.) - The Redeeming and Liberating Power of Literature – Part 2 By : Ugur Akinci
Standup comedy, for example, is notorious for completely avoiding that issue of honesty. Although we always laugh at what we instinctively recognize to be very true and thus appreciate the comedian for giving voice to what we usually do not have the courage to say out aloud in the open, in terms of its overall intention, standup comedy seeks to grab us, make us laugh, and then leave us exhausted with that one-two punch. It is powerful because it always catches us off-guard but there is no healing, no redemption in its aftermath. Like the morning of a loveless one night stand, it leaves us emptier than before. - The Redeeming and Liberating Power of Literature – Part 1 By : Ugur Akinci
True, serious, honest literature can liberate us from our chains and bonds and redeem the dignity and wholeness of a life that gets squandered in so many shopping trips to the mall, and so many idle days and nights spent in meaningless work and watching all that drivel on the tube. - The Real Dracula: A Monster of his Time By : Justin Kander

The only way to insure that The Kibera Slum is completely taken care of is to bulldoze it down and then rebuild it with plumbing. To do this will mean it must be done is sections and those sections will need to be further broken down into sectors. - The Plague of Language - Dispatx Art Collective Summer 2006 By : Oliver Luker
In considering The Plague of Language it is fundamental to acknowledge the exploration and analysis of various language forms that have emerged in the last century, and to refer them where possible to the creative arts. The possibilities of exploration are enormous, whether in the realm of sound, music and the spoken word, within the visual arts and literature, or in relation to the body. - The Place Of Goats In The Igbo Culture By : Uche Nworah
I love the Igbo tradition but followers and admirers of the Igbo culture will tell you that Ndigbo have this thing for goats and cows, particularly goats, an animal that they do not breed as much, choosing to rely instead on their Hausa-Fulani brothers from the North to supply all their protein needs. Probably as a result of oral tradition (handed down by the elders over the years) but it would seem that no event in any traditional Igbo family, kindred or village is complete without a goat or two, and even a cow being strung on the pole or wire to hang and roast. - The Painted Portrait - What Is So Hard About It? By : Dorothy Gauvin
Most people tend to answer: 'Getting the likeness.' But any experienced, successful, and honest portrait painter can tell you that 'getting a likeness' is purely a matter of careful observation and measurement of the physical proportions of your sitter. A human subject can, and should be, assessed by the artist in the same way as you would a landscape, still life or any other subject for a painting. - The Origins of Coats of Arms By : Tony Luck
Medieval noblemen were at risk of being hurt by 'friendly fire' as they were unidentifyable in their suits of armour. So the 'coat of arms' was devised to help identify them to their followers. - The Online Art Scene By : Kadence Buchanan

Renaissance humanism saw no mutually exclusive polarities between the sciences and the arts, and as impressive and innovative as Leonardo's artistic work are his studies in science and engineering, recorded in notebooks comprising some 13,000 pages of notes and drawings, which fuse art and science. - The Museum of Lost Wonder By : Jeff Hoke
No one really knows where we come from, but as you’ll see, a lot of people had a good time imagining it. Some of these stories are theories, some are myths. The theories want to be facts. The myths want to be truths. Both are useful in combating the dreariness of the waking hours. - The Murder of the Namibian Nation by Germany in 1905 By : Avinoam Amizan

If the circus is coming to town and you paint a sign saying "Circus Coming to the Fairground Saturday," that's advertising.

Mixture of things, they know not what,
Love, these mixt soules, doth mixe againe,
And makes both one, each this and that. - The Love Poetry of John Donne: Part 1 of 3 By : Ian Mackean

Much time has been expended on the subject of alleviating wars and re-uniting the human race. Some agree that if perhaps humankind would limit their infighting, chaos and controversy long enough to understand that we are all on this pale blue dot together and joined in a common cause of humanity, then all the other silly wars, sound and fury might appear rather trivial. - The House Rescued Me By : Katherine Morris

By : John Winkler
The story of the Masscre of Glencoe in the highlands of Scotland has had a chilling impact over the centuries. People in Britain cannot believe that a government of theirs, from London, would seek to exterminate a total clan in Scotland just to teach the Scottish Highland people a lesson. To do it while they were sleeping, in the middle of the night made it so much worse. - The Galant Villain By : Sharon White
