I saw the brightly colored costumes, as well as everyone’s body and face covered with glitter. I heard the sweet sounds of the steelband playing and people everywhere dancing in the street. The smell of sweat was in the air as everyone bunched up together to see the floats in all their brilliant glory. I can also recall the taste of sweet syrup as I licked it off the snowcone I was eating. in New Orleans, however, was a whole new experience for me. On Fat Tuesday I woke up early so I ...

... hierarchy of needs, there are five classes: (1) physiological, (2) safety, (3) social, (4) esteem, and (5) self-actualization. Each lower level need must be satisfied before an individual experiences higher level needs. Also, Maslow hypothesized that as physiological, safety, social, and esteem needs were satisfied, they ceased to motivate, while the self-actualization needs actually motivate an individual more as they are satisfied (Schwab, 1978: 57). Herzberg used this theory as a base to build his motivation-hygiene theory which ties Maslow’s needs to on the job achievement. The hygiene elements relate to low needs (physiological, safety, and social). For a ...

... implies sex more often then sex implies love (59),” and men believe that women think that “sex implies love about as strong as love implies sex (59)”. The difference researchers explain is that there is an existence of a jealousy gender gap. In order to explain what causes the jealousy between genders scientists are now creating tests to prove “whether the mind’s ability to reason, rather than genes, can explain the jealousy gender gap (59).” Scientists’ theories differ on the science of sexual infidelity. Some scientists use a theory referred to as “my genes made me think it (58).” This theory proposes that jea ...
