Title: Danger Signs of Possessive Relationships | Our Everyday Life Headings: Danger Signs of Possessive Relationships Danger Signs of Possessive Relationships Your Partner Disrespects You Jealousy Abounds You Are Being Manipulated You Are Being Controlled Your Partner Has a Temper Content: Danger Signs of Possessive Relationships | Our Everyday Life Danger Signs of Possessive Relationships Wavebreakmedia Ltd/Wavebreak Media/Getty Images Possessive relationships vary in severity. While some possessive individuals may try to control every aspect of their partner's life, other possessive individuals may only show mild jealousy. Regardless of the level of possessiveness, such relationships are typically unhealthy. However, spotting a possessive relationship is not always easy. It may even start out positively. Thus, partners who see warning signs may want to look closely at the relationship, even if things seem to be going well. Your Partner Disrespects You Disrespect is often a sign of a possessive relationship. Possessive individuals may make negative comments toward you or about ex-partners. This might take the form of name-calling, rudeness, sarcasm or critical remarks. In some cases, the possessive individual’s goal is to make you feel worthless and incapable of finding another relationship by damaging your self-esteem.

By Internet or Mail In Person Content: How do I Get my Baby's Birth Certificate? | Our Everyday Life How do I Get my Baby's Birth Certificate? Your baby's birth certificate is an important piece of information that clearly identifies the relationship between you and your child. Without a birth certificate, it can be difficult to travel with your child because many airlines request one to prove the child's age. You will also need one if you want to obtain a passport for your child or open a bank account for them. By Internet or Mail Photos.com/Photos.com/Getty Images After you delivered your baby in a hospital or birth center, it is likely that a representative from your county's vital records office visited you to obtain your baby's name and other pertinent information. Many hospitals or birth centers send home a form you can submit by mail to obtain your child's birth certificate. If you can locate this form, simply fill it out and send a check or money order to cover the fee. Make sure you pay attention to when it will be available in your county's database; often you are supposed to wait a period of weeks before submitting the request.

Title: Psychological Effects of Losing a Sibling | Our Everyday Life Headings: Psychological Effects of Losing a Sibling Psychological Effects of Losing a Sibling Guilt Childhood Traumatic Grief Regression Anger and Depression. Anxiety and Schock Content: While sadness is part of the normal grieving process, sadness that interferes with a child's ability to function may be clinical depression. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to discern normal grieving from clinical depression, as they have many of the same symptoms. Appetite and sleeping changes, sadness and a lack of energy are common responses to both grief and depression. However, a child who is grieving normally will experience periods of happiness whereas a child experiencing depression is consistently sad. Difficulty doing everyday tasks, feelings of worthlessness, preoccupation with thoughts of death or dying or excessive guilt that lasts for two or more months are signs that a child is clinically depressed. Anxiety and Schock Anxiety is another common reaction for children who have experienced the death of a loved one. A child may begin to worry that his body will fail him. He may express worry about any physical symptoms he experiences. He may become fearful that other loved ones close to him will die as well.

Though dresses were generally fashioned with high necks, long sleeves and long skirts to maintain a woman’s modesty, the types of dresses worn depended on class. A woman’s wealth was apparent from the clothes she wore, and farmers’ wives generally donned simple dresses practical for the work demanded of them. Dresses Unlike their urban contemporaries, women in rural areas -- including farmers’ wives -- wore simple dresses made from wool or linen. A white collar was usually the only adornment, over patterns of gingham checks and small flowers known as calico. City ladies, by contrast, predominantly wore paisleys, florals and wide stripes. Moreover, farm wives usually owned just one work dress and one better dress, both of which featured straighter skirts than those worn by upper-class women. These dresses composed a country woman’s wardrobe until they fell apart, at which point they were converted into children’s clothes or household rags. Accessories Affluent women often accessorized with gloves, jewelry, muffs and parasols, but farmers’ wives wore only cloaks or shawls with their dresses. Cloaks, prominently worn in England, were often red and sometimes had a hood of cloth or wool.

You're balancing a relationship-building conversation with information-gathering and sharing your own experiences. Humane Response Some friendships begin when one person reaches out to another in need. When an individual or a family in your community experiences sickness or other personal trauma, a thoughtful response can lead to friendship. Gifts of food or service bring welcome relief to a person who is ill. While making your own dinner, double the recipe to share. Offer to pick up items from the grocery store while you are making a run for yourself. Where a death occurs, a friendly smile and a listening ear can go a long way to make the bereaved person feel connected. When in doubt about what to do, just think about what you'd appreciate if you were in the same situation. Workplace Workplace friendships increase job satisfaction and performance.

Title: How to Freeze Spinach | Our Everyday Life Headings: How to Freeze Spinach How to Freeze Spinach Blanch the Greens Cooling and Wrapping Freezing and Storing Defrosting and Using Content: How to Freeze Spinach | Our Everyday Life How to Freeze Spinach DENIO RIGACCI/iStock/Getty Images Freezing spinach lets you take advantage of your garden's summer and fall bounty well into the cold depths of winter. To successfully freeze spinach and preserve as much of its nutrients and texture as possible, blanch your greens prior to freezing, and wrap them well to ensure that they don’t develop freezer burn. Use frozen spinach as you would fresh spinach in everything but fresh salads and in the juicer. Blanch the Greens You can blanch your spinach either with boiling water or hot steam, although steaming helps preserve more of the nutrients. To blanch in boiling water, bring a 1-gallon pot of salted water to a rolling boil, and then add in the cleaned spinach leaves in 1-pound increments. To steam blanch, boil 1 to 2 inches of water in a large pot, and lower a steaming rack filled with 1 pound of spinach into the pot, keeping the basket out of the water by at least 1 inch. It will take roughly 10 seconds to boil blanch spinach, and 30 to 60 seconds to steam blanch. Cooling and Wrapping Immediately after blanching, dunk the cooked leaves into a large basin of ice water to cool the leaves rapidly and stop the cooking process. Rapid cooling is crucial for high-quality frozen spinach. Drain the leaves and spin them dry with a lettuce spinner, or pat them dry with a towel.

Rapid cooling is crucial for high-quality frozen spinach. Drain the leaves and spin them dry with a lettuce spinner, or pat them dry with a towel. To prevent freezer burn, minimize the amount of exposure the leaves have inside the container. Freezer bags that have leaves layered individually inside work well, although vacuum-seal bags work best by removing all the oxygen. Freezing and Storing Place the packaged spinach in the coldest part of your freezer. Do not put more spinach in your freezer than can be fully frozen in a 24-hour period -- usually no more than 2 to 3 pounds of prepared spinach per cubic foot of freezer capacity. Keep your packets separated to ensure rapid freezing.

Title: How to Regrow Nails | Our Everyday Life Headings: How to Regrow Nails How to Regrow Nails Content: There are several ways to help a nail stay strong and regrow. Moisturize the nails with hand lotion daily and after hands are washed. This will keep the nails supple, which will help prevent cracking and drying. Apply nail polish once a week. This will provide moisture for the nails while giving them a protective coating. Avoid using your nails to open soda cans or dial phones. Instead, use your knuckle or a pen. Regularly trim the nails with fingernail clippers and clean underneath them daily. Keep them relatively short and remove any broken or cracked section immediately. Longer, damaged nails can snag on fabric or garments, causing the nail to break.

Each of the rules that are outlined, such as "think twice before asking favors," "respect others' opinions" and "give constructive criticism" can be put into practice so that you can connect with others in a positive manner. A simple way of becoming a more considerate person is to reflect on how your actions affects others, and to think if this is how you would want to be treated.

Title: Main Barriers of Multicultural Counseling | Our Everyday Life Headings: Main Barriers of Multicultural Counseling Main Barriers of Multicultural Counseling Counselor Competence and Values Understanding Language Barriers Belief Systems and Ideologies Cultural Bias Content: How to Be More Effective.” Body language can also have different meanings depending on your culture. If your counselor does not understand a break of eye contact or automatically attributes other body language to assumptions based on culture, you could wind up feeling uncomfortable or misunderstood. Belief Systems and Ideologies Counseling is a practice that originated primarily in western cultures. Therefore, it is largely based on concepts such as individualism, logic and competition, which are in opposition to the ideas associated with other cultures, according to psychiatrist Heesoon Jun in the book "Social Justice, Multicultural Counseling, and Practice." If you are from a culture that emphasizes family contributions to your identity and therapy, for example, it may come as a surprise to your counselor if you request the presence of family members during a session. Cultural Bias Bias can also be a major issue in multicultural counseling. To be effective, counselors must both understand bias in general and be able to refrain from engaging in stereotyping and prejudice in their practice, says Heesoon. Considering each client as an individual is essential, because even if two clients are from the same cultural background, they will have unique factors that will inform the session. Not discussing cultural factors at all, and minimizing the impact of differences, can be detrimental and can convey disrespect, even resulting in an inaccurate diagnosis or ineffective treatment.

When you have an overbearing partner, these may come second to control, frustration and guilt.

The key is to be assertive, confident and consistent, advises psychiatrist Judith Orloff. Your partner may thrive on power struggles, so don't give him one. Focus on the important issues that need to be addressed, rather than getting stressed about minor quibbles like whose turn it is to take the trash out. For example, if you are discussing whose family to spend the holidays with, say something like, "I'd really like to spend a few days with my parents, because we haven't seen them for a long time.

Find a way to let her know whenever she is crossing the line. For example, if she keeps forcing her opinions onto you, say something like, "I do appreciate what you're saying, but I would like some time to think this through on my own." If she dominates conversation when you're out with friends, take her to one side and say something like, "It's great that you're so friendly and sociable, but I'd like to speak for myself when someone asks me a question."

Turn to friends and family members for support if you decide to end the relationship.

Title: How Does Stereotyping Affect Relationships? | Our Everyday Life Headings: How Does Stereotyping Affect Relationships? How Does Stereotyping Affect Relationships? Gender Stereotypes Racial and Ethnic Stereotypes Stereotypes and Aging Long-Term Effects Content: Developing an awareness of the ways stereotyping affects relationships can help you recognize when it happens so that you can change your behavior. Gender Stereotypes The ways that men and women are expected to behave can have a profound impact on relationships. For instance, women are often expected to be nurturing. Men are expected to be stoic. If either of them behaves otherwise -- a woman doesn't care to dote on others or a man expresses grief and sadness -- others may be taken aback. Expectations based on gender can pressure people to behave in ways that make them uncomfortable, creating strained connections with others. For example, a man might not feel comfortable showing affection toward others for fear that they will think of him as less of a "man." Racial and Ethnic Stereotypes Assumptions based on race and ethnicity are some of the most pervasive stereotypes in society.

Title: How Does Stereotyping Affect Relationships? | Our Everyday Life Headings: How Does Stereotyping Affect Relationships? How Does Stereotyping Affect Relationships? Gender Stereotypes Racial and Ethnic Stereotypes Stereotypes and Aging Long-Term Effects Content: Expectations based on gender can pressure people to behave in ways that make them uncomfortable, creating strained connections with others. For example, a man might not feel comfortable showing affection toward others for fear that they will think of him as less of a "man." Racial and Ethnic Stereotypes Assumptions based on race and ethnicity are some of the most pervasive stereotypes in society. Discrimination can lead to police-initiated traffic stops and prison sentences, for example, according to "Gender and race: How overlapping stereotypes affect our personal and professional decisions," a study by Columbia University researchers. Racial and ethnic stereotypes overlap with gender stereotypes to the extent that they influence romantic relationships, the research found. For instance, the more a man is attracted to femininity, the more likely he is to be attracted to an Asian woman -- stereotyped as meek and passive -- and the less likely he is to be attracted to an African-American woman -- stereotyped as aggressive and outspoken. Stereotypes and Aging Stereotypes regarding age include the assumptions that the elderly are forgetful and frail, and that younger individuals are naive and do not know what is best for themselves. In either case, their feelings and opinions are minimized, which can cause decreased self-confidence and sense of autonomy. A teenager might feel frustrated and angry if someone tells him to stop taking a dating relationship seriously.

Stockbyte/Stockbyte/Getty Images Refusing to say "I love you" may be disconcerting for you and it can stem from many causes. Some people had negative experiences with saying "I love you" while others may demonstrate love in ways besides a verbal statement. Understanding the reasons behind others' refusal to say those three words can better help you relate to them. Such knowledge will prove helpful in many relationships of different kinds. Fear How people responded to their loving sentiments contributes to some people's refusal to say, "I love you." Fear is often a response when someone's emotional expression is rebuffed or refused. From childhood to adulthood, if saying "I love you" resulted in a negative experience, people may refuse to say it to protect themselves and their feelings. " I love you" may be associated with negative consequences, and people would rather be safe without love than vulnerable with it.

Parents and important adults model emotions for children -- when they do not model loving emotions, children may not learn how to express sentiments such as "I love you." As adults, these children may struggle with expressing love in many ways, including saying, "I love you." Men especially may have difficulty saying, "I love you." Males are not socialized to be as expressive or emotional as females, so many men may have trouble saying, "I love you."

Teenagers typically spend more time with their peers than they do with their parents, siblings or other social contacts. Therefore, friends influence many aspects of a teenager’s life. Healthy friendships can help teenagers avoid delinquency, isolation and many of the negative characteristics that are associated with this period of life. Acceptance and Confidence Healthy friendships help teenagers feel accepted and confident and can pave the way for the development of other positive social ties. Confidence and feeling accepted are integral characteristics for a teen’s social and emotional development. When a teenager feels as if he is a part of a group, he is less likely to be negatively affected by bullying and other forms of rejection. Teens who feel confident and accepted may also be less likely to engage in the bullying of others. Positive Influence Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images Friends can be positive influences in the scholastic, social and personal aspects of a teenager’s life. Because friends often share common goals and/or interests, they can persuade a teen to make good choices.

Men's Roles in the 1800s Differences Between Modern & Traditional Marriages The History of Child Care Programs British Wigs in the 1700s Many people assume that the traditional role of a man within a family is that of primary breadwinner, while a woman's job is to care for the children. However, according to the Digital History web site, it wasn’t until the 1920s that most families consisted of a wage-earning male, a stay-at-home mom, and children who attended school. In earlier generations, men and women both took active roles in commerce and child-rearing. Colonial Family Units The nuclear family of a mother, father and one or more children was virtually unknown during the early years of American colonization. Households were usually made up of parents, children, extended relatives and boarders, as well as servants and apprentices who performed household duties or learned career skills. These family groups often lived on farms, but some lived in towns or cities and worked in various skilled trades. Much as it is now, it was typically necessary for more than one person to generate income to support the family unit. Traditional Roles of Men in Families Religious European settlers brought their beliefs to the New World, and those beliefs helped define the roles of men and women within families. God was the highest authority, and husbands and fathers derived their household authority from God.

Men began working outside of the home in greater numbers, and they would often leave for much of the day. Wives could no longer help their husbands with their businesses, so the image of husband as provider and wife as dependent began to replace the image of a cooperative family unit where everyone participated in its success. As a result, men became less involved with the upbringing of their children, while women's roles became largely limited to child care and household duties. 00:00 00:03 09:20 GO LIVE Facebook Twitter Email Embed Speed Normal Autoplay Brought to you by LeafTV Brought to you by LeafTV Jamestown Settlement: Colonial Medicine

History Early Uses Modern Use Benefits Disadvantages Content: History Cologne was invented thousands of years ago. Some of the first known uses for cologne originated from the Middle East. These first fragrances were not like the colognes of today, but were more like incense scents. Sometimes the scents were mixed with oil and applied to the skin. The crusaders brought some of these colognes to Europe in the middle ages. By the 1600s the establishment of cologne worldwide was assured. The first cologne made with scent, water and alcohol was made in 1709 by Gian Paolo Feminis. Since then the definition of cologne has changed, and in the modern world cologne is any fragrance that has a concentration of 5 percent scent. Early Uses Cologne was so popular in ancient history because of the difficulty of bathing. Cologne was used to mask the smell of body odor, mud and feces.

Cologne was especially useful for densely populated areas, such as large cities, where people had to live in close proximity constantly. Baths were rarely taken before the 1700s, and cologne helped postpone the need for a bath even longer. Modern Use In modern society cologne is not used so much as a mask for stench as it is for making someone’s natural scent appear more pleasant. Cologne is often used in social settings and during dates. Cologne is now targeted mostly for men, with perfumes targeted toward women.

Title: Why oil under $30 per barrel is a major problem | Our Finite World Headings: Why oil under $30 per barrel is a major problem Why oil under $30 per barrel is a major problem 1. Oil producers can’t really produce oil for $30 per barrel. 2. Oil producers really need prices that are higher than the technical extraction costs shown in Figure 1, making the situation even worse. 3. When oil prices drop very low, producers generally don’t stop producing. 4. Oil demand doesn’t increase very rapidly after prices drop from a high level. 5. The sharp drop in oil prices in the last 18 months has little to do with the cost of production. 6. One contributing factor to today’s low oil prices is a drop-off in the stimulus efforts of 2008. 7. The danger with very low oil prices is that we will lose the energy products upon which our economy depends. 8. The economy cannot get along without an adequate supply of oil and other fossil fuel products. 9. Many people believe that oil prices will bounce back up again, and everything will be fine. This seems unlikely. 10. The rapid run up in US oil production after 2008 has been a significant contributor to the mismatch between oil supply and demand that has taken place since mid-2014. Conclusion Note: Like this: About Gail Tverberg Content: This is not really the case. 4a. When oil prices rise from a low price to a high price, this generally means that production has been inadequate, with only the production that could be obtained at the prior lower price. The price must rise to a higher level in order to encourage additional production. The reason that the cost of oil production tends to rise is because the cheapest-to-extract oil is removed first. Oil producers must thus keep adding production that is ever-more expensive for one reason or another: harder to reach location, more advanced technology, or needing additional steps that require additional human labor and more physical resources. Growing efficiencies can somewhat offset this trend, but the overall trend in the cost of oil production has been sharply upward since about 1999. The rising price of oil has an adverse impact on affordability. The usual pattern is that after a rise in the price of oil, economies of oil importing nations go into recession.

China Slowdown Fears, Capital Flight Currency War? A Boost For China, The Rest Of Us Not So Much Our Trade Polices Cause U.S. Job Loss Content: China could boost its own growth in ways that are not "bad for everyone else" by allowing a currency and trade balancing and the resulting overall increase of world trade over the longer term. But this would not provide an immediate shot in the arm in the way the mercantilist policies of currency and other manipulation have done. China's current policies essentially steal the business from other countries and do not expand overall growth and stability. Our Trade Polices Cause U.S. Job Loss Meanwhile the U.S. will not adopt trade policies that benefit the overall U.S. economy. June's U.S. trade deficit with China was an enormous, humongous $29 billion – in just one month and just with China. This deficit is a metric for measuring the loss of jobs, factories and overall wealth from our economy. China does what China does, for China. The U.S. should do what the U.S. needs to do, for the U.S. Instead, our "free trade" ideology causes us to let mercantilist countries do what they do.

During the play, the conflict will be complicated by several subplots or various other conflicts. These other conflicts will be put in front of the protagonist to prevent him from reaching his goal. Climax Many people mistakenly view the climax as the end of the play. The climax actually comes in the middle. This is the turning point in the story where things begin to change for the protagonist. Depending on whether the drama is a comedy or a tragedy, the turn will either be for the worse or for the better. Falling Action The fourth characteristic of a dramatic play is the falling action, which is where we will finally see the confrontation between the protagonist and the main antagonist. This confrontation will take different forms, depending of the type of story. By the end of this section, we will either have a resolution to the conflict or we will be left in suspense as to the outcome.

The most obvious way is their respective time periods. Classical music is typically considered music made before the 19th century, whereas modern music is music created after the 19th century. Both styles of music are vastly different in other ways, including instrumentation, form, style, purpose and method of creation. Instrumentation Ddickerson.igc.org states that typically, classical music is performed by groups of acoustic instruments. These instruments include the violin, viola, cello, flute, upright bass, piccolo, French horn, tuba, trumpet, trombone, clarinet, oboe, bassoon and saxophone. While all of these instruments make appearances in large orchestras, smaller classical groups called chamber ensembles only use some of them. Typical chamber ensembles include string quartets, brass quintets and woodwind quintets.

History Fashion Body Image Politics Environmentalism References Writer Bio Related Articles Content: From fashion trends to political views, the attractiveness of a celebrity's lifestyle can influence people's beliefs, interests and behaviors. This obsession with celebrity culture often starts at an early age. Many children and teens are infatuated with young, pop-culture icons. They think of celebrities as role models and may choose to imitate them. History Some historians credit the rise of mass celebrity culture in America to the early 20th century. Between 1900 and 1929, the entertainment industry in New York was flourishing with different forms of entertainment, including opera, vaudeville, radio and film. Many Americans became infatuated with celebrities and contributed to a new, consumer-based culture that continues today. Fashion The influence of chic fashion can be traced back to the 17th century, and it's often credited to Louis XIV and his obsession with glamorous and elegant clothing. Today, celebrities have become the trendsetters in fashion. From red carpet award shows to celebrity gossip magazines, media coverage of "who" a celebrity is wearing can influence a person's decision to buy the latest designer clothing and accessories.

Title: How Do Celebrities Influence People? | Our Pastimes Headings: How Do Celebrities Influence People? THEATER How Do Celebrities Influence People? History Fashion Body Image Politics Environmentalism References Writer Bio Related Articles Content: Body Image The entertainment industry often pressures celebrities--especially actresses--to look thin. Since some people look to celebrities as role models, this can have a severe impact on societal perceptions of body image. Some celebrities maintain their body images through extreme measures, including plastic surgery and eating disorders. Though celebrities do not directly cause people to seek out these extreme measures, the National Eating Disorder Association says that the media impacts the ways people define ideas of body image. Politics Through the media, celebrities have the ability to affect people's interests in political parties or politicians. One of the most recent, high-profiled celebrity endorsements was Oprah Winfrey's endorsement of Barack Obama in the 2008 presidential election. Though it's unclear exactly how influential Winfrey's endorsement was on the race, a USA Today poll showed that 8 percent of the adults who participated in the poll were more likely to vote for Obama because of Winfrey's backing. Environmentalism Many environmentally conscience topics, such as global warming, have received publicity because of celebrities. Al Gore, Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks are strong believers in living a "green" lifestyle. These celebrities have often vocalized support for "going green," and have endorsed hybrid cars, such as the Toyota Prius.

Though it's unclear exactly how influential Winfrey's endorsement was on the race, a USA Today poll showed that 8 percent of the adults who participated in the poll were more likely to vote for Obama because of Winfrey's backing. Environmentalism Many environmentally conscience topics, such as global warming, have received publicity because of celebrities. Al Gore, Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks are strong believers in living a "green" lifestyle. These celebrities have often vocalized support for "going green," and have endorsed hybrid cars, such as the Toyota Prius. Their advocacy for environmentalism can influence people in adopting a more eco-friendly lifestyle, while strengthening the environmental movement.

Public murals usually intend to make a political or cultural statement through art. Often the intent is to instill pride in local people about their culture and heritage. Artists Public murals are painted on walls by teams of untrained workers from the neighborhood under the direction of an artist, or they are created by a single artist with the backing of local citizens. By their nature, some murals are created without neighborhood sanction because they are designed to shock or surprise with their message. Mural Movement The mural movement in the United States began in 1967 with William Walker and a group of African-American artists in Chicago. Walker and his group emulated the political and cultural murals painted in the 1920s by Orozco and other Mexican artists. The Wall of Respect Walker and his team covered the wall of a Chicago building with a painting called "The Wall of Respect," using a theme of the accomplishments of black leaders in all fields.

Title: What Was Diego Rivera's Art Style? | Our Pastimes Headings: What Was Diego Rivera's Art Style? PAINT What Was Diego Rivera's Art Style? Cubism in Paris Muralism in the Americas Indigenous Influence A Style Influenced by Friends and Lovers Mexicanidad Content: Murals like "The Great City of Tenochtitlan" romanticized Mexican history and were meant to educate the population. Indigenous Influence Rivera's art was strongly influenced by pride of his heritage. Paintings like "The Tortilla Maker," depicting a woman making tortillas in the same way they've been created throughout Mexican history, represent this appreciation for his heritage. A Style Influenced by Friends and Lovers While painting in Mexico, Rivera teamed up with artist friends who reflected a similar style to his own: Jose Orozco and David Siquieros in particular. They painted murals together, focusing on Mexican heritage and using a strong style that often flattened three-dimensional elements into two dimensions, and presenting objects as broader and sturdier than they were in reality. Rivera married Frida Kahlo in 1929, who has become a household name in contemporary Mexican art. She was influenced by Rivera's simple-looking style, and her own work reflected her passion for her heritage, her psychological state and her memories. Mexicanidad All of the aforementioned influences came together for Rivera, and he coined this style of art Mexicanidad, of which he is known to be the founder. Mexicanidad uses Mexican culture and heritage, uses broad, sturdy imagery and can appear in mural form.

As with many art forms, no one person invented the salsa dance. Different people played a role in molding salsa. Diverse Ethnic Origins The person who invented the salsa dance cannot be easily identified, because salsa combines various Latino, European and Afro-Caribbean dances. As far back as the 1700s, these cultural differences formed a distinctly North American music landscape. 1950s Salsa dance grew out of the popularity of mambo in North America, due to the rise of Cuban and Puerto Rican communities in New York City. These two communities created their distinct versions of salsa dancing and became a part of the New York club scene. New York Style The New York style of salsa dancing is the most popular one around, because this is the city of salsa’s origin. Eddie Torres, the King of Mambo Dancing, performed with Tito Puente, the Mambo King, and his mambo influence helped form modern salsa dancing.

Definition A woodwind instrument is any type of wind-powered instrument that produces sound through the action of air vibrating against an edge or hole inside the instrument. Instruments Instruments in the woodwind family include flutes, saxophones, clarinets, oboes and bassoons, but also folk instruments such as whistles, bagpipes and ocarinas. Materials Woodwinds get their name because they're commonly made of wood; however, modern woodwind instruments may also be made of metal or plastic. Single Reeds Woodwinds such as clarinets and saxophones are "single reed" instruments that produce sound from a single vibrating reed, usually made of a thin section of bamboo. Double Reed "Double reed" woodwinds make their sound from two vibrating reed sections placed back-to-back. This group includes oboes, bassoons and bagpipes.

Although not perfectly matched, we see some relationship between the two: increases in oil (energy) prices tend to result in increases in cereal prices. This relationship may be attributed to two key reasons. Firstly, most modern agricultural and food systems require energy inputs (either in the form of on-farm machinery, transportation, distribution or storage energy). Increases in energy prices can inevitably have an impact of producer and distribution costs, resulting in higher food prices. Studies have suggest that the passthrough of price changes in energy and transport inputs to agricultural commodities to result in a price increase of approximately 15-20 percent. 11 The second potential reasoning for this relationship relates to the allocation of crops to biofuels – an important consideration in terms of food security. The rationale follows that a rise in oil prices drive demand in the production of biofuels; this increased diversion of food crops to biofuel production reduces food supplies, resulting in an increase in price.

The Global Burden of Disease is a major global study on the causes of death and disease published in the medical journal The Lancet. 2 The study’s estimates of the annual number of deaths by cause are shown here. This chart is shown for the global total, but can be explored for any country or region using the “change country” toggle. According to the Global Burden of Disease study, just over 400,000 (405,000) people died from homicide in 2017. This was around three times the number killed in armed conflict and terrorism combined. In some countries homicide is one of the largest killers. Homicide rates across some countries in Latin America are particularly high. In 2017, homicide was the third largest cause of death in Venezuela; fourth in Honduras;

Using the “change country” toggle you can explore this data for countries and regions. In Latin America homicides are the leading cause of death in 15 to 49 year olds. Twice as many young adults die from homicide as from road accidents.

In the map shown here we see how this share of deaths varies across the world. There are very large differences between countries and regions. Across most of Western Europe, for example, less than 0.1% of deaths were the result of homicide. Across much of Eastern Europe, North Africa, Asia and Oceania, it was less than 0.5%.

Content: How Does Outsourcing Help Developing Countries? Blog | Outsourcing | Social Impact | How Does Outsourcing Help Developing Countries? September 26, 2019 by Jamie Ayque Outsourcing benefits companies through a number of ways, from cutting costs, increasing the quality of their products and services to helping them grow their bottom line. This is a fact known to both multinational companies and SMEs based in developed countries who have been outsourcing aspects of their businesses, particularly to developing countries, for years. But how does it help the people at the receiving end of the process? How does outsourcing help developing countries? The Economic Impact of Outsourcing to Third-World Countries For more than 20 years, companies in developed nations have increasingly outsourced parts of their business processes to developing countries like India, the Philippines, Indonesia, and others. This phenomenon has given rise to what is now known as remote working or, in millennial speak, being a “digital nomad.” This is because most outsourced or remote workers today typically have their own home offices set up at their convenience or can be seen lugging their laptops in cafés or wherever they go. The concept of outsourcing is simple and straightforward:

The concept of outsourcing is simple and straightforward: non-critical business functions are passed on to economies that have lower labor market rates. Such functions include customer service, bookkeeping, accounting, marketing and human resources, among others. Outsourcing is a welcome concept not just for companies looking to outsource, delegate or sub-contract business activities but also for third-world nations like India and the Philippines—the two English-speaking Asian countries whose talent pools are being tapped for outsourcing jobs. Outsourcing has positively addressed the growing unemployment rate in developing nations and developed the labor forces of these countries for specific industries.

Title: How Does Outsourcing Help Developing Countries? Headings: How Does Outsourcing Help Developing Countries? How Does Outsourcing Help Developing Countries? The Economic Impact of Outsourcing to Third-World Countries Addressing Social Issues Important Jobs What’s out there for outsourced workers in developing countries? Content: BPO giant Teleperformance is focusing on providing learning opportunities, while Sykes’ Global Giveback effort supports local clinical health services and physical fitness. Likewise, three community boards of telecom company Telus, which are located in the Philippines, El Salvador and Guatemala, are distributing $100,000 each to local grassroots charity organizations. At Outsourcing Angel, we do our part too, by reinvesting our profits into community projects in the Philippines. We have contributed to feeding programs for hillside tribes, conducted donation drives of essential medical supplies, and have supported the efforts of Tribu Ni Bro (TNB) in their efforts to provide solar energy generation capabilities to remote tribes. In addition, we are involved in a partnership with the Virlanie Foundation, where our virtual assistants volunteer their time and knowledge to teach disadvantaged kids computer literacy skills. To find out more about or to extend a helping hand, please visit our OALoveProject website , Important Jobs Outsourcing can provide people in developing countries with well-paid jobs that might not be available to them otherwise. These jobs are not just low-end, low-skilled jobs that were created to support minor business functions. Outsourcing companies are not merely looking for cheap labor; they are seeking professional and skilled individuals who can support mission-critical aspects of the business. Outsourcing also provides workers with a sense of pride and fulfilment knowing that they have a job that can support their families.

Outsourcing also provides workers with a sense of pride and fulfilment knowing that they have a job that can support their families. Outsourced jobs are important to the people who get them, as most of them are college graduates who feel that they could never get jobs that could pay them US$400 to US$500 a month—the starting salary for most call centers—without this kind of opportunity. They are not only given employment opportunities but also a chance to climb up the career ladder. This helps create young workers that are confident about themselves, dignified, and optimistic. The many job opportunities that Outsourcing Angel has given to our virtual assistants have helped them gain the time and freedom to be with their families for important milestones and have helped them gain much financial freedom as well. From building their dream homes, to spending quality time with their families, to having an online career, this opportunity to work from home is much cherished and makes an immensely positive impact on the lives of our angels.

Vicarious trauma is an occupational challenge for people working and volunteering in the fields of victim services, law enforcement, emergency medical services, fire services, and other allied professions, due to their continuous exposure to victims of trauma and violence. This work-related trauma exposure can occur from such experiences as listening to individual clients recount their victimization; looking at videos of exploited children; reviewing case files; hearing about or responding to the aftermath of violence and other traumatic events day after day; and responding to mass violence incidents that have resulted in numerous injuries and deaths.

Responses to vicarious trauma can be negative, neutral, or positive; can change over time; and can vary from individual to individual, particularly with prolonged exposure. The chart below illustrates the VTT Model. Vicarious traumatization is a negative reaction to trauma exposure and includes a range of psychosocial symptoms. ( In the VTT, the term “vicarious traumatization” is used broadly to include other related terms such as secondary traumatic stress (STS), compassion fatigue (CF), and critical incident stress (CIS). These terms, often used interchangeably, have distinct and overlapping definitions, as illustrated in the Glossary of Terms .)

A neutral reaction signifies the ways that an individual's resilience, experiences, support, and coping strategies manage the traumatic material, not that it has no effect. Vicarious resilience and vicarious transformation are newer concepts reflecting the positive effects of this work. For instance, individuals may draw inspiration from a victim’s resilience that strengthens their own mental and emotional fortitude. Just as victims can be transformed in positive ways by their trauma, so can victim service providers and first responders. Compassion satisfaction reflects the sense of meaning that is gained from working in the fields of victim services and first responders.

Feminist Criticism (1960s-present) Summary: This resource will help you begin the process of understanding literary theory and schools of criticism and how they are used in the academy. Feminist criticism is concerned with "the ways in which literature (and other cultural productions) reinforce or undermine the economic, political, social, and psychological oppression of women" (Tyson 83). This school of theory looks at how aspects of our culture are inherently patriarchal (male dominated) and aims to expose misogyny in writing about women, which can take explicit and implicit forms.

This school of theory looks at how aspects of our culture are inherently patriarchal (male dominated) and aims to expose misogyny in writing about women, which can take explicit and implicit forms. This misogyny, Tyson reminds us, can extend into diverse areas of our culture: " Perhaps the most chilling example...is found in the world of modern medicine, where drugs prescribed for both sexes often have been tested on male subjects only" (85). Feminist criticism is also concerned with less obvious forms of marginalization such as the exclusion of women writers from the traditional literary canon: "... unless the critical or historical point of view is feminist, there is a tendency to underrepresent the contribution of women writers" (Tyson 84). Common Space in Feminist Theories Though a number of different approaches exist in feminist criticism, there exist some areas of commonality.

This list is excerpted from Tyson (92): Women are oppressed by patriarchy economically, politically, socially, and psychologically; patriarchal ideology is the primary means by which women are oppressed. In every domain where patriarchy reigns, woman is other: she is marginalized, defined only by her difference from male norms and values.
