Pidgin: Dialect Of English Spoken On The Hawaiian Islands
.... toward behavior. The pidgin
dialect is a major part of life in the lower class Hawaiian neighborhoods. For
most children in these neighborhoods it is the language spoken at home. The
other people of the islands look at this dialect as a sign of a poor education
and up-bringing. My mother did not want her son associated with such a group of
individuals.
When I started school at Maunawili School and began to pick up Pidgin
and start to speak it at home she took it upon herself to change me. At this

The Rise Of Violent Crime In Canada
.... first define what
violent crime is in actuality. All to often, people in Canadian society refer to
general wrongdoing as being a crime. A simple example of this is when grocery
stores all raise their prices for certain food products. People then refer very
casually to this act as a crime or that these prices are criminal. Individuals
in our Society often have a fear of being victimized by others, such as the
government, friends and or strangers. This fear is often equated with crime
since all crimes h .....

cars and the lack of alternate routes, account for one half of the traffic
congestion in the United States (Clark 387-404). Although the number of traffic

In addition, traffic jams also demonstrate the need for better methods
of traffic management. Due to .....

Understanding The Nature Of Homlessness
.... for money. We looked for a number of signals in the interactions,
considering people's ages, how they reacted physically, whether or not they
communicated verbally, their demeanor throughout the interaction, and the
importance of eye-contact. We must also wrestle with the ambiguity of the power
structure within the situation, because it is not nearly as clear as it seems.
In the end, we will try to decipher the true nature of these confrontations,
concluding by comparing the analysis of these situation .....

Nontraditional Tradtions
.... us to create new family traditions.
Celebrating is not hard. We all know about celebrating and have some ways of
doing it. The only challenge is to find new ways. Why do we need to celebrate
tradition? It gives us something to look forward to and makes a formal
statement that there are some things in life to be grateful for.
The notion of honoring tradition is unsettling for some people; let
alone creating new ones. We understand that we need something to add a sense of
order and stability to our .....

Sociology And Its Aim

another or simply their nonverbal messages. There are many hand signs, both
good and bad, that people exchange as well as facial expressions in reaction to
an event or statement. Now that I have some of the terms described lets look at
an example.
I hate lawyers. This is a personal opinion of mine and a lot of other
peoples. Its nothing personal against any one of them, I don't like the way
they operate and the way they have set the system up for their own benefit. .....

What Is The Future Of The Family In Canada?
.... can adjust to.
With families changing in recent decades, data still shows that families
are still the most important in people's lives. Following recent studies Robert
Glossop said that "Canadians continue to report that the most important things
in their lives are their families...more important than their political
convictions, their religious beliefs, their jobs, their wages." A Statscan
study reported that only forty-five per cent of families are the ‘traditional'
type, however, Robert Glossop say .....

Why Are Individuals Aggressive?
.... defines aggression as :-"The intentional infliction of some form of harm
on others" (Gross page 444)
Freud proposed that aggression is an instinctive biological urge. According to
Freud this instinct, is made up of the libido (pleasure) and "Thanatos" (the
death wish) (pain). This basic instinct is present in the Id from birth, at
first the aggression is relatively uncontrolled, but with the development of the
Ego and superego it becomes channelled into socially acceptable behaviour If

Why Televisions Should Be Unplugged
.... movies such as Terminator and its sequel or the Die Hard trilogy and
conjure up bright ideas to go vandalizing or attacking innocent people. This is
especially true when speaking of the gang situation that is currently plaguing
our nation. Before the era of the television, crime like the kind we now have
was virtually non-existent.
Obesity is another indirectly related effect of television on our bodies
for people of all ages. The term “couch potato” adequately suits people who
would rather wat .....

Psychology: Women And Territory
.... life in
jeopardy.
Territory is not just environmental, but it is also bodily. A person
creates an imaginary bubble around them. This is considered their personal space.
Some people are allowed into the bubble while strangers usually must stay
outside. The bubble varies from culture to culture. A person in Europe will
stand closer to a friend than an American would. The odd feeling that Americans
experience in foreign countries when talking to local people is a common
misunderstood concept.

Gender In Sports
.... dedicated solely to the women football athletes. This lack of
recognition for female athletes only becomes more frequent as one progresses
through the levels of competition in virtually any sport. The games of women's
teams, where they do exist, tend to draw only limited crowds at most levels of
competition, scholastic or otherwise. In the realm of athletic activities, the
American society has chosen not to offer the same opportunities to its women as
it traditionally has to its men. For centuries, it .....

Sports In Society
.... relationships between a person's thoughts, feelings, and behavior which
if motivated correctly can help an individual excel with confidence in anything
they try to do. Most of the time self-confidence is viewed in accordance with
how well an athlete performs at a certain sport activity. To examine this

order to understand how their self-confidence reigns so high when it comes time
for them to actually compete. An ath .....

Sports In Today's Society
.... should learn about good sportsmanship, not the bad which the media find
important to us.
As people learn about how bad sportsmanship is in sports, the players
will realize this. To the players this means they will concentrate more on
playing their best, not trying to be someone they are not. In addition, it will
allow athletes to feel better and more proud of what they are.
