...make before eventually realizing that they have all along been on the losing side. Remarkably, in modern times, the youths engage in a lifestyle of negligence that endangers their present and future life. Pierce, in her poem, depicts the transformation of a modern youth by using flashback to recount the dark days to the transformed days. Given this, this essay makes an analysis of Pierce’s poem, "Relevant Details" in respect to the modern lifestyles and the way individuals come to realize of their endangering lifestyle. The poem begins with a description of a bar referred to as the Den of Iniquity and whose emblem was a “neon martini glass.” Notably, the name of the bar depicts the kind of place it is and the activities one would expect to place therein. In current times, such places are common and mostly target the young people, who frequent them to for their binge drinking habits and other inappropriate lifestyles. Pierce’s poem is written from a narrator point of view. In this case, the narrator, a youthful female was a regular visitor of the bar mentioned above, and she indicates that she used to dance in the presence of several men who watched her with truculent eyes. Obviously, considering the narrator's behaviour of going to such a place to satisfy her desires indicates a negligent way of life, which is in line with the modern times lifestyle. The narrator equally goes on to outline the details of her alcohol drinking. Evidently, one would expect her to do succumb to alcohol...

...The Medicine Wheel: A Guide to Achieving Personal Goals in Life One of the important subjects that is of great interest in Aboriginal Studies is the Medicine Wheel; how it is used as a guide for personal decision making and actions through life, particularly to achieving our personal goals. What the Medicine Wheel is all about and how it helps guide us to a more fulfilling life is a question most of us wonder. The Medicine Wheel is a crucial element of First Nation’s culture. It is a powerful symbol of the aboriginal people’s spirituality. It is the essence of their way of life, a key to understanding the universe, and a guide in which an individual can reach wholeness. It provides framework for growth and direction in one’s life (Roberts, Harper, Bull, & Heideman-Provost, 1998). “The Medicine Wheel symbolizes the interconnection of all life, the various cycles of nature, and how life represents a circular journey” (Traditional Aboriginal Medicine, 2009). The Medicine Wheel as a visual symbol is an effective tool for personal development (Native American Medicine Wheel, 2011). Based on my learning from the class discussions and presentations, I found this project very interesting and inspiring. I found it to be an important guide towards attaining success. In this paper is my vision of what a medicine wheel would be like and how I connect the medicine wheel ideas to my outlook, and to realizing my goals in life. ...

...Consumer Insights 1-1 1. Lifestyles centers allow the consumer to peruse the items available for sale in a relaxed setting. Consumers are able to stop and grab a bite to eat or go to a movie during their shopping excursion. The consumer is also able to take the items purchased home on the same day instead of waiting for it to be shipped. 2. Lifestyle centers are not able to house the same large number of shops that a traditional mall is able too. The consumer is limited to a small number of stores to make purchases. If the consumer wishes to visit a specific store, this is not an issue. However, when it comes to browsing several stores the product variability will not be the same as in a traditional mall. Also, during inclement weather, the outdoor mall setting will not be optimal. A consumer will be less willing to browse store to store when the weather is not ideal. A traditional mall, however, protects the consumer from the weather and promises the ideal shopping climate every time. 3. I am not sure what a virtual lifestyle center would look like. I am sure it would be possible to create because online anything is possible. However, it appears that one of the major attractions to a lifestyle center is the ability to stop for a coffee or see a movie and this does not seem feasible online. If one were created, I would imagine it would offer a small variety of stores set up to allow the consumer easy shopping among them all. Perhaps one checkout procedure would...

...In our modern urban lifestyle, we have lost our sense of community. We need to return to a simpler way of life. Discuss. Following the development of technology, the quality of life becomes better off. It is attractive enough to live in cities, because people can enjoy a lot of convenient facilities. However, some people believe that many people do not know their neighbours and the sense of community has been lost with the increasing number of people in cities. In this essay the effect of the modern urban lifestyle in cities will be discussed. Nowadays, many people tend to live in cities for different reasons. They move into cities mainly for work. Because they leave early in the morning and come back home late in the evening. They do not want to waste their time on a train or bus. If they live in cities, they do not need to wake up early to take a train or bus. Furthermore, living in cities means that they can easily find places or facilities to fill their every need in the urban life, which is valued in the individual lifestyle rather than the sense of community. On the other hand, many people seem to be more isolated than ever before. Because of focusing on the individual lifestyle in modern time, it is hard to have an opportunity to make a deep relationship with people living around. People do not usually know what happens to their neighbours. Humans are social creatures that cannot be independent of others. As a result, even if there are a lot of convenient places...

...1 The book Code of the Street is a book about urban city life in Philadelphia, PA, for African Americans and how unwritten laws are vital to abide and obtain in order to survive. In this book, Elijah Anderson captivates the reader’s attention by presenting extensive research on how Philadelphia natives adopt the laws of the code of the street and how and when to use these codes of survival. He provides several interviews with many different people who are either forced to enter the code of the street or who are the enforcers. Nonetheless, all are victims because the code is a factor in everybody’s life. As I read this book, I noticed how the code of the street could be a good thing and also a bad thing. I say a good thing because, first and foremost, no one wants to be disrespected and I saw how many of the characters adopted this role in the street life to gain respect and to not be fearful and to be viewed as a “tough” guy. I also saw adopting the code of the street as a bad thing because I saw that there were decent people who were forced to engage in the negativity that the street produced on a daily basis. I saw how the good turned into bad while the bad either were campaigning to be badder or campaigning to make something of themselves. You would think that trying to better your life, especially coming from the ghetto, would be two thumbs up but in the city of Philadelphia, as Anderson described, was a hard obstacle to overcome. Hate, jealousy and envy were the dominant...

...Life in the Global Era. A look into the daily life of a businesswoman who works in New York would tell you that a lot of things that she wears and does have developed over time. After waking up and showering, she puts on a designer sweater and a pair of khaki pants. She brews and drinks a cup of coffee and eats a banana before heading off to work which involves meeting with other business professionals and making business transactions as well. Each of these products followed a complex process from a different part of the world to take its place in this woman’s morning routine. Simply put, the sweater and the khakis for all we know could have been manufactured somewhere in Australia, knitted and sewn (as in the khakis) into a pattern by an Italian designer. The coffee beans used to make coffee maybe grew on a plant in the high mountains of Kenya. In essence, a lot of the things we do in our modern society are connected to various places outside our current place of residence. Over the past centuries, many instances of advancement have been observed. These instances of progression due to technological improvement have increased interaction and connectivity among people all over the world. From black and white TVs and cameras to coloured ones, from hand-woven fans to electrical fans, from smoke signals and couriers to phones, telephones and the internet as means of communication, from cowries to minted paper currencies in trade. It becomes indisputable that the common saying...
