...explode. Grease, generally considered a trivial little musical about The Fabulous Fifties, is really the story of America’s tumultuous crossing over from the 50s to the 60s, throwing over repression and tradition for freedom and adventure (and a generous helping of cultural chaos), a time when the styles and culture of the disengaged and disenfranchised became overpowering symbols of teenage power and autonomy. Originally a rowdy, dangerous, over-sexed, and insightful piece of alternative theatre, Grease was inspired by the rule-busting success of Hair and shows like it, rejecting the trappings of other Broadway musicals for a more authentic, more visceral, more radical theatre experience that revealed great cultural truths about America. An experience largely forgotten by most productions of the show today. Like Hair before it and The Rocky Horror Show which would come a year later, Grease is a show about repression versus freedom in American sexuality, about the clumsy, tentative, but clearly emerging sexual freedom of the late 1950s, seen through the lens of the middle of the Sexual Revolution in the 1970s. It’s about the near carnal passion 1950s teenagers felt for their rock and roll, the first art form that actually changed human sexuality. (The phrase rock and roll was originally African American urban slang for sexual intercourse, going as far back as the 1920s, and it made its way onto many rhythm and blues recordings before the 1950s.) As theatre, Grease finds its...

...INTRODUCTION “Success is like a vitamin. Everyone needs some of it. When you don’t have enough success, it’s hard to feel very good about who we are, especially when other people around you seem to be having plenty of success.”(Levine1990). Genuine, lasting success is never been an accident. It is the result of personal character. Winners always have a sense of mission. They know where they are headed and have figured out how to get there. They are focused. They plan their work and work their plan. They realize that time is more valuable than money. They work smarter, not harder. High achievers usually have one obvious thing in common: personal discipline. Successful people are willing to do things that average people are unwilling to do. The researcher wants to give attention and signify that these high school student workers were venerated by their much appreciated sacrifices.

Being engaged in a great responsibility at an unsuitable age is a violation...

...Symptoms of a failed or failing CPU include: * PC will not boot. * PC boots, but the operating system fails to load. * PC has POST parity problems with a number of devices. * PC locks up shortly after startup: * This symptom is possibly a cooling/heating problem. Check for this problem by shutting down, letting the system cool off, and restarting the computer to verify whether the problem repeats itself. Check the following if overheating seems to be the problem: * Check the heatsink and fan for placement and condition. * Verify that thermal paste or a thermal pad has been used between the processor and the heat sink. * Verify that the heatsink is firmly attached to the CPU. * Verify that the CPU is properly seated in its socket. * Verify that system case fans are working and that the case and expansion slots are in place. * If the CPU is an older Pentium without a heat sink or fan, add one. * If the computer is not overheating, but has this symptom, the problem could be the clock jumpers on the motherboard or system timers (in BIOS) are set incorrectly for the processor. * PC sounds a POST beep code indicating a CPU fault upon boot-up: * Verify that the CPU is receiving sufficient power by checking the power outputs. * If these are good, replace the CPU. * If the fault remains, the problem is with the motherboard. * PC crashes on startup or when running a software...

...Stuck in Grease, There’s no Such Thing Kevin was working late that night, almost every seat in the theatre was filled. After the movie ended Kevin took his snack break and headed towards the concession stands. From the corner of his eye he saw Mark with his crew walking into the theatre. Kevin stood there staring like he saw a ghost. Mark and his crew walked over to Kevin and started making fun of him. “Hey man, what’s that all over your shirt?” Mark chuckled, beginning to dump a bucket of popcorn on Kevin’s head. “Dude, what was that for?” Kevin yelled back, “I didn’t do anything to you.” “I don’t care, you’re in my way,” Mark smirked. Kevin turned away and headed for the bathroom, “What a jerk,” he mumbled under his breath. In the bathroom...

...Blood, Sweat, and Tears or Just a Little Elbow Grease? Abstract While many complain about the ill effects of unemployment, little is being done to prevent it from occurring in the future. This paper uses research from several employment training programs to help investigate what can be done to prevent teenagers and young adults from behaving unprofessionally in early jobs which could result in lack of desire to hire them in the future. Many of these studies have shown that a great deal of the issues that arise in employees are due to a lack of respect and a bad attitude. This paper proposes a set of courses be provided in the community to help better prepare teenagers and young adults for the workplace by teaching not only basic work skills but social skills as well. Blood, Sweat, and Tears or Just Little Elbow Grease? Bob gathers his courage and takes a deep breath. This is the big “make-it or break-it” moment. He walks up to the lady he has been nervous about meeting for weeks. They talk, he leaves his number, and they part ways. Weeks later, Bob is still waiting to hear back from her, wondering where he went wrong. Little does Bob know, the biggest mistake he made happened years ago. Bob was not asking a girl out on a date; he was applying for a job. Unemployment is a growing issue in America today, and unfortunately, one big reason for not being hired is past performance in previous jobs. With classes that specialize in training high school and college students for...

...Growing up you would find me playing football in the field or playing in the streets, but never in the kitchen. In grade school I took Home Economics where my teacher tried to teach me to cook. There I learned a few but I never learned to fry chicken. I have tried different methods of cooking. I’ve boiled, grilled, roasted, and pan-fried. However, frying with grease seems to be my problem. Either the grease is too hot or not hot enough. The chicken is either overcooked or undone. There is no winning with me versus cooking with grease. After hanging out with a few friends I noticed that they had a special fryer and he passed off a couple of pointers. Part of my “not knowing to fry chicken” comes from me being afraid of the popping grease. Starting off I’ll be buying a fryer. I figure with the purchase of a fryer it would make the job much easier, which is wanted in my favor. Next my buddy asked me how I warm my grease. Apparently I wasn’t allowing my grease to get hot enough before I dropped chicken in and once dropped I cooked it too fast. “Simple solution,” he told me. “Lower your temperature on the burner.” Later sometime down the line I had been invited to a kickback. The host of the party gave strict details of whom they wanted to bring what to the party. He told me to bring some chicken. Immediately I began to think I’ll just go buy some from Alberson’s or something then I thought about my new fryer and the tips I had learned. The chicken was a SUCCESS! Everyone...

The addition of soap, however, results in the removal of the grease. Examine the following structure of soap and explain why soap works.
