.... Mart allows customers to pay for their purchase at the pump by using a debit card or credit card. I myself have and regularly use a debit card. I feel Coastal Mart gains customers because of its convenience. I buy gas there and find this method of paying very convenient, especially if I am in a hurry. I also think debit cards are very convenient elsewhere as well as less expensive than writing checks for everything. Generally I only write checks for monthly bills. With the rise in technology I could opt for most of my monthly bills to be paid for through electronic tra .....

.... at home, they may have the tendency to seek it elsewhere. The attraction of belonging to a gang is becoming more popular among our youths. For some people, especially those that have lived in a gang-infested neighborhood for many years, it is unavoidable. For many they see it as their only future. Yet for others the attraction of belonging to a gang stems from loneliness or a need of belonging. These gangs can provide that sense of belonging. Not only can a gang provide a sense of belonging. They are structured into a closely-knit family like environment. They are ruled by a .....

.... earlier, these two sources are very reputed and the general population believes that they are correct. Yet, however often they may be correct, in this case they are not, or at least not completely. Not according to the scientific community at least. My sources for this statement are The World Book Encyclopedia, The Wizard from Vienna: Franz Anton Mesmer, Applied Hypnosis: An Overview, American Medical Journal, and Hypnosis: Is It For You? Although they state it in different ways they all basically agree that nobody can give a very accurate definition or description of hypn .....

.... mortal thought. According to Aristotle man possesses a natural want for knowledge. Immortalizing oneself aides the desire for knowledge and self-realization. Self-realization leads to happiness. We can find similar theories in modern day psychologists like Maslow. In his theory of hierarchy, Maslow places self-actualization as the last achievement before reaching true happiness. At heart, Aristotle was a teacher. He believed that knowledge and teaching went hand in hand, and regarded teaching as the “proper manifestation of knowledge.” The Lyceum is where Aristotle spent most .....

.... Act prompted Massachusetts to clean up its act, so to speak. It was not until the city of Quincy and the Conservation Law Foundation filed law suits against Massachusetts for violations of the Clean Water Act, that the state decided to make updates to its system (Aubrey, Connor 62). The result of these lawsuits was the creation of the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA) in late 1984. Once the MWRA took control of the sewer system changes began to be made. The MWRA oversaw the construction of new primary and secondary treatment plants of Deer Island, which remov .....

.... standard there must be some way to check that it is being followed. There are standards in place now that try and make sure that a student is learning what he or she needs to graduate. These are in the forms of test. The problem with these tests is that they are taken every few years. By this time a student may be so far behind and lack the skills necessary that it would take a miracle to have him or her master the essential skills. Another problem with this is finding out where they went wrong. The way these evaluations should be done is by looking at several of the stude .....

.... use the word “crazy” but that’s exactly how to talk about it with an obsessive-compulsives. Since they are so sane in every other way, you must agree with and understand how upset they are by how crazy it all is” (pg. 6). This stood out to me and made me realize many things. Many who would look at people with OCD would think they are crazy, but in fact they are as normal in a sense as anyone of us is but they suffer from a problem. We all suffer from some kind of problem but not to this degree, so when people label them as crazy it is wrong as yet t .....
