Col. Kevin Reilly, the program manager for infantry combat equipment at Marine Corps Systems Command in Quantico, Va. Eyelets that allow the boots to breathe and drain water also are falling off.“These failures are not due to the RAT boot’s ...

Language and culture are two very large elements that
comprise the overall communication style and ability to form relationships for
each person. The culture and language that each person uses are a fascinating
part of what makes each person unique, and of course languages and cultures all
over the world continue to develop and evolve with the constantly changing colloquialisms,
pop culture, and media.
Often, what has
proved time and again to be a fascinating part of what makes each individual
unique can also become a challenge when it comes to cross cultural
communication, but when it comes down to language and culture, the debate
continues as to which ...

INTRODUCTION:
Oxford Dictionary gives a set of meanings
for the word “Race”: ‘each of the major divisions of human kind, having distinct physical characteristics’; ‘an
ethnic group’; ‘a group descended from a common ancestor’; ‘a group of people
or things with a common feature’; ‘ a distinct population within a
species: a subspecies’. It goes further
to define ‘Racism’ as ‘the belief that there are characteristics, abilities or
qualities specific to each race’. It subsequently added the later developed connotation
that ‘Racism denotes discrimination against or antagonism towards other races’.
Charles Darwin’s ‘Theory of Evolution’ has explained to us the preferential
selection of fitter races (species) in their fight for ...

Floods are one of those natural disasters which can cause tremendous damage not only for wealth and property of individual but also on life. There are several places of the world which face the wrath and havoc of floods often – the main problem arises when the flood water recedes and the damage is accessed. It becomes very difficult for the residents to get back to their homes after their ordeal and then get it back to its original position. It is completely impossible to do all the cleanup and related services all by yourself because flood waters cause many ...

What is ‘religion’? Most people who
consider themselves secular in their outlooks as well as tolerant monks and
priests of a few tolerant religions, give it a convenient definition,
convenient to buttress their secular credentials: “Each religion is a road leading to God”,
like the proverb “All roads lead to Rome”. Yet the followers or the descendents
of the ‘three cousins’ of the desert lands, will never agree to this simple
‘secular definition’; because they have been brainwashed to look at humanity in
two blocks: those who follow one cousin’s religion are ‘believers’ or the
‘faithful’ and the rest are ‘non-believers’ or the ‘unfaithful’. Each cousin
has his own ...

Political Corruption in
America
By Michele Marie Tate
Political corruption has been a problem
since the first European settlers arrived in America. From officials to
politicians, laws are circumvented to obtain riches and/or power. If you search today’s newspaper
headlines, articles about bribes, fraud, and illegal tactics can be found in
all levels of government. Right now this includes two U.S. senators and a state
governor.
This threatens our democracy and the
American people’s overall confidence in city, state and federal officials. It undermines the legitimacy of
government and the ethics we trust. Political corruption can be defined as
bribery, graft, extortion, robbery, patronage, conflict of interest, ...

There
is a lot of talk in the Christian community about engaging with those
who are outside of the walls of the church by being missional. Yet
when the word missional comes up, it seems like everyone has their
own definition. Missions have long been an emphasis of the church,
yet a missional church takes a look at what it means to be a
missionary in one’s own culture.
When
an average church member thinks about mission work, they see visions
of far away lands, foreign languages, primitive living conditions and
perhaps most importantly, work that someone else completes. However,
living missionally means that missions are something that everyone
has been ...

Advent
is an often-misunderstood part of the church calendar, primarily
because it is often ignored. Many modern churches focus on an
alternative theme surrounding Christmas for the weeks leading up to
December 25, which in the church calendar has traditionally held by
Advent, made up of the four Sundays before Christmas.

This gospel is a familiar concept to Christians and many other who grew up
in the church, however to others, the word can seem quite foreign or
one that is filled with misconceptions. For some, gospel is only
familiar as a musical genre, complete with bad haircuts and an
ancient sound. Even many Christians also have some misconceptions
about the gospel. While there is general consenseous about what the
gospel is, the good news that Jesus Christ came to earth to redeem
sinners, many misunderstand its applications. It is common for
Christians to believe that the gospel is only for non-Christians,
only necessary for those who have not yet ...
