FIGHT IN THE FIELDS: CESAR CHAVEZ :: essays research papers

Fight in the Fields : Cesar Chavez   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  In Fight in the Fields: Cesar Chavez, by Margo Sorenson, two teenagers were not paying attention in history class, and their teacher assigned them Saturday school, pulling weeds. Kenneth and Aleesa weren’t friends, they were caught passing a note to someone. After, they started to work on Saturday, they both drank from a blue water jug, that sent them back in time. To the year 1965, where Cesar Chavez was helping out the field workers get their own union. By putting on a strike against the Schenley Company, who grow grapes in Delano, California, and sold them around the world. While, the teenagers were in the past, they lived and worked with the Lopez’s, Juan, Rosa, and their son Luis. Luis helped Kenneth and Aleesa understand what was happening during that time with the NFWA- National Farm Workers Association and the strike to get the workers a union of their own, and they all joined the NFWA. Which ended in the year 1970 and they were able to go ba ck to their time. Both Kenneth and Aleesa were able to experience the strike first hand, and when they went back home, they wished that they had paid a little bit more attention in class, and that they were going to from then on.   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Even though, this is a fictional book, it tells a true story about the struggle of the farm worker to obtain a better life for themselves and their families. There are two main themes in this book, non-violence, and the fight for dignity. Cesar Chavez was a non-violent man who would do anything to not get in a fight while they where boycotting the growers. One, incident in the story was when a grower pulled out a gun, and he pointed it at the strikers, Chavez said, â€Å"He has a harder decision to make, we are just standing here in peace†¦Ã¢â‚¬  The picketer were beaten and put in jail before they would fight back and that is what why all farm workers look up to Cesar Chavez , along with his good friend Martin Luther King Jr. Non-Violence is the only way to solve anything. The growers in that time did not care about their workers, if people were striking, the growers would go to Mexico and bring in Braceros, mean that they would not have to sign the union contract and not take union workers, who were willing to work if the grower would sign the contract.

Night World : Witchlight Chapter 7

Keller faced him squarely. â€Å"Yes, sir? Or should I say ‘my lord?† He flinched but tried to hide it. â€Å"I should have told you in the beginning.† Keller wasn't about to get into a discussion of it. â€Å"What do you want?† â€Å"Can we go in there?† He nodded toward what looked like a small library-office combination. Keller didn't want to, but she couldn't think of any acceptable reason to refuse. She followed him and crossed her arms when he closed the door. â€Å"You saved my life.† He wasn't quite facing her; he was looking out the window at a cold silver sky. Against it, he had a profile like a young prince on an ancient coin. Keller shrugged. â€Å"Maybe. Maybe not. The bricks didn't kill me; maybe they wouldn't have killed you.† â€Å"But you were trying to save my life. I did something that was probably stupid-again-and you had to cover for me.† â€Å"I did it because it's my job, Galen. That's what I do.† â€Å"You got hurt because of me. When I dug myself out of that rubble, I thought you were dead.† He said it flatly, without any particular intonation. But the hairs on Keller's arms rose. â€Å"I've got to get back to Diana.† â€Å"Keller.† There was something wrong with her. She was facing the door, heading out, but his voice stopped her in her tracks. â€Å"Keller. Please.† She was aware that he was coming up behind her. Her entire skin was up in gooseflesh. She was too aware of him, that was the problem. She could feel the air that he displaced. She could feel his heat. He just stood there. â€Å"Keller. Ever since I first saw you†¦Ã¢â‚¬  He stopped and tried again. â€Å"You were-gleaming. All that long black hair swirling around you and those silvery eyes. And then you changed. I don't think I ever really understood what it meant to be a shape-shifter until I saw that. You were a girl and then you were a cat, but you were always both.† He let out his breath. Tm putting this badly.† Keller needed to think of something to say-now. But she couldn't, and she couldn't seem to move. â€Å"When I saw that, for the first time, I wanted to shapeshift. Before that, I didn't really care, and everyone was always telling me to be careful, because whatever shape I choose the first time is the one I'm stuck with. But that's not what I'm trying to say. I'm trying†¦Ã¢â‚¬  He reached out. Keller felt the warmth of his hand between her shoulder blades, through her hair, through the fabric of her spare jumpsuit. Keller shivered. She couldn't help it. She felt so strange. Dizzy and supernaturally clear at the same time. Weak. She didn't know what was happening to her, only that it was powerful and terrible. His hand remained on her back, warmth from it soaking into her skin. â€Å"I realize how much you dislike me,† Galen said quietly. There was no self-pity in his voice, but he seemed to be getting the words out painfully. â€Å"And I'm not going to try to change that. But I just wanted you to know, I also realize what you've done for me. I needed to say thank you.† There was something swelling in Keller's chest like a balloon. Bigger and bigger. She clamped her lips together, frightened as she had never been when fighting monsters. â€Å"And†¦ I won't forget it,† Galen was going on, still quiet. â€Å"Someday, I'll find a way to repay you.† Keller felt desperate. What was he doing to her? She wasn't in control of herself; she was trembling and terrified that the thing in her chest was going to escape. All she could imagine doing was turning around and hitting him, like a trapped animal lashing out at someone trying to rescue it. â€Å"It's so strange,† he said, and Keller had the feeling that he had almost forgotten her and was talking to himself. â€Å"When I was growing up, I rejected the Power of my family. All my ancestors, they were supposed to turn into demons when they unleashed it. I thought that it was better not to fight- if that was possible. It seems unrealistic now.† Keller could feel more than warmth now. There were little electrical zings spreading out from his hand, running down the insides of her arms. Not real ones, of course. Not the Power he was talking about, like the Power used by the dragon or Winnie. But it felt awfully close. Her whole body was filled with buzzing. Some people shouldn't have to fight, she thought giddily. But, no, that was insane. Everybody had to fight; that was what life was about. If you didn't fight, you were weak. You were prey. He was still talking in that abstracted tone. â€Å"I know you think-â€Å" Keller's panic hit flashpoint. She whirled around. â€Å"You don't know anything about what I think. You don't know anything about me. I don't know whatever gave you the idea that you did.† He looked startled but not defensive. The silver light behind him lit the edges of his fine hair. â€Å"I'm sorry,† he said gently. â€Å"Stop being sorry!† â€Å"Are you saying I'm wrong? You don't think I'm a spoiled and pampered prince who doesn't know anything about real life and has to be baby-sat?† Keller was disconcerted. That was exactly what she thought-but if it were true, then why did she have this strange feeling of falling? â€Å"I think you're like her,† she said, keeping her words short and brutal to keep them under control. She didn't need to specify the her. â€Å"You're like this whole ridiculous family. Happy mommy, happy baby, happy Christmas. They're ready to love everybody who comes along. And they're living in a happy happy idealistic world that has nothing to do with reality.† The corner of his mouth turned up wryly, although his eyes were still serious. â€Å"I think that's what I said.† â€Å"And it sounds harmless, doesn't it? But it isn't. It's blind and destructive. What do you want to bet that Hiana's mother really thinks my name is Kelly now? She can't deal with it being ‘demon,' so she just happily changes the world to fit.† â€Å"You could be right.† He wasn't smiling at all now, and there was something in his eyes, something lost and hopeless that made Keller feel more panicked than ever. She spoke savagely to hold off the fear. â€Å"You want to know what real life is like? My mother left me in a cardboard box in a parking lot. It was fixed up with newspapers inside, like something you'd use for a puppy. That was because I couldn't wear diapers, I was stuck in my halfway form-a baby with a tail and ears like a cat. Maybe that was why she couldn't deal with me, but I'll never know. The only thing I have of hers is a note that was in the box. I kept it† Keller fumbled in the jumpsuit's pocket. She had never meant to show this to anyone, certainly not somebody she'd known for less than twenty-four hours. But she had to convince Galen; she had to make him go away for good. Her wallet was slim-no photos, just money and ID. She pulled out a folded slip of paper, with creases worn smooth by time and writing that had faded from blue ink to pale purple. Its right edge was a ragged tear, but the words were on the left and clear enough. â€Å"It was her legacy to me,† Keller said. â€Å"She was trying to pass on the truth, what she'd learned about life.† Galen took the paper as if it were a hurt bird. Keller watched his eyes move over it. She knew the words by heart, of course, and right now she heard them ringing in her mind. There were only twelve of them-her mother had been a master of succinctness. People die†¦ Beauty fades†¦ Love changes†¦ And you will always be alone. Keller could tell where Galen was by the way his eyes widened in horror. She smiled at him, not nicely, and took the paper back. He looked at her. And despite everything she knew about him, she was surprised at the sheer depth of his shock. He stared at her with those gold-green eyes that went on for miles-and then he stepped forward. ‘You don't believe that,† he said fiercely, and grabbed her by the shoulders. Keller was startled. He'd seen her in action. How could he be so stupid as to grab her? He seemed to be completely unaware of his danger. There was nothing calm or hesitant about him now. He was staring at her with a kind of stricken tenderness, as if she'd just told him she had a terminal disease. It was as if he were trying to pour love and warmth and light into her by a direct connection. â€Å"I won't let you think that,† he said. â€Å"I won't let you.† ‘It's just the truth. If you can accept that, you won't drown in life. Whatever happens, you'll be able to cope.† â€Å"It's not all the truth. If you believe it is, why do you work for Circle Daybreak?† â€Å"They raised me,† Keller said shortly. â€Å"They snatched me out of the hospital nursery when they read the reports about me in the paper. They realized what I was and that humans couldn't take care of me. That's why I work for them-to pay them back. It's my job.† â€Å"That's not the only reason. I've seen you work, Keller.† She could feel warmth spreading from his hands on her shoulders. She knocked them aside and stood tall. There was a core of iciness inside her, and she hung on to that. â€Å"Don't get me wrong,† she said. â€Å"I don't save people out of idealism. I don't risk my neck for just anybody-only the ones I get paid for.† â€Å"You mean if Diana's little brother was in danger, you wouldn't save him. You'd stand there and watch him burn to death in a fire or drown in a riptide.† Keller had a sinking feeling. She held her chin up and said, â€Å"Exactly. If it meant putting myself in danger to save him, I wouldn't do it.† He shook his head, flatly positive. â€Å"No.† The sinking feeling got worse. â€Å"That's a lie,† he said, holding her eyes. â€Å"I've seen you in action. I talked to Nissa and Winnie last night. And I've seen your mind. You're not just doing a job. You're doing what you do because you think it's right. And you are†¦Ã¢â‚¬  He paused as if to find the words, then spoke deliberately. â€Å"You are the soul of honor.† And you're insane, Keller thought. She realty needed to get away now. The sinking was becoming a terrible weakness spreading through her. And although she knew that what he was saying was complete garbage, she couldn't seem to stop listening. â€Å"You put on a good show,† Galen said, â€Å"but the truth is that you're brave and gallant and decent. You have your own code, and you would never break it. And anybody who knows you sees that Don't you know what your team thinks of you? You should have seen their faces-and Diana's-when they thought you were dead in that rubble. Your soul is straight as a sword, and you have more honor than anyone I've ever known.† His eyes were the color of the first new leaves in spring, the kind you look up to see sunlight pouring through. Keller was a meat-eater and had never cared much about flowers or other vegetation, but now she remembered a line from a poem, and it froze in her mind like lightning: Nature's first green is gold. This w as the color the poet meant. You could drown in eyes like that. He was holding her arms again. He couldn't seem to stop reaching for her, as if she were some soul in danger of being lost forever. â€Å"Your life's been so hard. You deserve to have good things happen to you now-only good things. I wish†¦Ã¢â‚¬  He broke off, and a sort of tremor went through his face. No, Keller thought. I won't let you make me weak. I won't listen to your lies. But the problem was that Galen didn't lie. He was one of those idiot idealist types who said what they believed. And she shouldn't care what he believed, but she found that she did. She cared terribly. Galen just stood there looking at her with tears in his gem-bright eyes. Something ripped inside Keller. And then everything changed. Keller couldn't understand what was happening at first. In panic, all she could think was that she was losing herself. Losing her armor, her hardness, everything she needed to keep alive. Some part of her deep inside was melting, flowing toward Galen. She tried to snatch it back, but it was no good. She couldn't stop it With a distant shock, she realized that she had shut her eyes. She was falling, falling-and she didn't care. Something caught her. She felt the warmth of arms around her, supporting her. And she felt herself lean into it, relaxing, letting him take some of her weight, as if someone else were controlling her body. So warm†¦ That was when Keller discovered something strange. That warmth could give you shivers. Being close like this, feeling Galen warm and solid and there to hang on to-it made a shiver of pleasure go through her. And then she felt the true connection. It wasn't a physical thing. The spark that passed between them connected them mind to mind. It was a riveting flash of complete understanding. Her heart all but exploded. It's you. The voice was in her mind, the same voice she'd heard yesterday when he had tried to save her from the dragon. It was filled with wonder and discovery. It's you†¦ the one I've been looking for. You're the one†¦ And Keller would have told him how insane that was, except that it was just what she was feeling herself. It was as if she had just turned around and unexpectedly found herself facing a figure from one of her dreams. A person she knew instinctively, just as she knew her own mind. I know you, too, Galen's voice in her head said. We're so much alike†¦ We're not, Keller thought. But the protest sounded feeble even to her. And trying to hang on to her anger and cynicism right now seemed silly- pointless. Like a kid insisting that nobody loved her and she was going to go play on the freeway. We belong together, Galen said simply. Like this. Warm tingles. Keller could feel the force of his love like a bright light shining at her. And she couldn't†¦resist†¦ any longer†¦ Her arms came up to hold Galen back. Her face turned up slightly, but not much, because she was tall, and their lips were already only an inch apart. The kiss was shivery, delightful, and very sweet. After an endless time of floating in a golden haze, Keller shivered again. There's something†¦ something I have to remember†¦ I love you, Galen said back. Yes, but there's something I've forgotten†¦ We're together, he said. I don't want to remember anything else. And that was probably true. She couldn't really blame him. Who would want to disturb this warmth and closeness and quiet joy? Still, they had been talking about something-a long time ago, when she had been alone. Something that had made her terribly unhappy. I won't let you be unhappy. I won't let you be alone, either, he said. He stroked her hair with his fingertips. That was all, but it almost short-circuited Keller's thought processes. But not completely. Alone†¦ I remember. Her mother's note. You will always be alone. Galen's arms tightened around her. Don't. Don't think about that. We're together. I love you†¦ No. With a wrench, Keller pulled herself away. She found herself standing in the library on her own two feet, staring at Galen. He looked shocked and stricken, as if he'd just been slapped out of a dream. â€Å"Keller-â€Å" â€Å"No!† she spat. â€Å"Don't touch me!† â€Å"I won't touch you. But I can't let you run away. And I can't pretend I don't love you.† â€Å"Love,† Keller snarled, â€Å"is weakness.† She saw her mother's note lying on the floor where he'd dropped it and snatched it up. â€Å"And nobody is making me sentimental and weak! Nobody!† It wasn't until she was out the door that she remembered she had left out the strongest argument of all. He couldn't love her. It was impossible. He was destined to marry the Witch Child. The fate of the world depended on it.

buy custom Business Ethics essay One of the principles of Caltex was that they needed to expand their business globally. They wanted to penetrate in the African market. In this case, they had to make a business deal with government of South Africa. In order to conduct this business deal they had to follow the South African law and use the correct method. The principles for the South African government were that Caltex should provide them with one thousand dollars and jobs for the South African citizens. The two parties struck a deal and the Caltex is among the leading companies globally and in the African market. I tend to believe that the best principles for this case are the Caltex Company following the South African law. Additionally, I think the South African principle for the job opportunities for its people is the best. This is because the South African country needs the economy of the country. Additionally, the Caltex Company did the most ethical thing to follow the normal protocol followed by other foreign companies that wanted to invest in South Africa. This shows that both parties have corporate social responsibility. In the world of mrketing, companies employ different strategies in order to gain the competitive advantage. It is even more distinct for companies that do produce the same product. For example, in the case, food companies have distinct marketing strategies as compared to those of drug companies. The food companies use advertisements and pamphlets as their marketing strategies but the drug companies only use advertisements. For instance, when Formula Company tried to use panaflex their sales went down and the company was under a lot of criticism. This means that drug companies only use advertisements as there marketing strategies as compared to the food companies. Price fixing is one of the marketing strategies where companies set prices for their products (Velasquez, 2006). In the case of telecommunication companies, they set prices on their products in order to attract their customers. There are ethical implications in the prices fixing of the different prices. For instance, when the companies set high prices for their products they may harm the society because they are over charging them. In this case, the company may be seen as if they are exploiting the society by overcharging them thus it is unethiical. On the other hand, when the companies set law prices for their products they may harm themselves because they might not make any profits thus running at a loss. It is important for the companies to consider the society and at the same time consider themselves so that they cannot harm themselves. In the case of Clarence Burk, his marketing strategies were ethical because he was considering the society and at the same time considering the c ompany. Unlimited goods simply mean that the goods are readily available or there are in abundance. Carrying capacity is the total amount of goods in the marketing. For instance, air is referred to as unlimited goods by the companies because air has a huge carrying capacity. Air pollution is common with companies because they fail to consider the society. Unlimited goods and carrying capacity are closely related to pollution control in the sense that when the unlimited goods like air are mismanaged they deteriorate slowly causing pollution. Therefore, in order for companies to have ethics they must consider the society by protecting the environment thus creating a relationship between unlimited goods and carrying capacity (Velasquez, 2006).

How Carbon Fiber Tubes Are Made

How Carbon Fiber Tubes Are Made Carbon fiber tubes are ideal for both the hobbyist and industry professional. Using the rigidity of the carbon fibers, an extremely stiff yet lightweight tubular structure can be used in a wide range of applications. Carbon fiber tubes can replace steel, but more often than not, it is replacing aluminum. In many instances, a carbon fiber tube can weigh 1/3rd of an aluminum tube and still have the same or better strength characteristics. Because of this, carbon fiber reinforced tubes are often found in applications lightweight is crucial, like aerospace, race cars, and recreational sports. The most common carbon fiber tubular profile shapes are squares, rectangles, and circular. The rectangular and square profiles are commonly referred to as a box beam. Carbon fiber box beams provide excellent rigidity to a structure and simulate two parallel I-beams. Carbon Fiber Tube Applications Any application where weight is crucial, switching to carbon fiber will be beneficial. The following are some of the most common uses of carbon fiber tubes: Aerospace beams and sparsFormula 1 structural componentsArrow shaftsBicycle tubesKayak paddles Manufacturing Carbon Fiber Tubes Hollow composite structures can be difficult to manufacture. This is because pressure needs to be applied to both in internal and the external side of the laminate. More often than not, carbon fiber tubes with a continuous profile are manufactured by either pultrusion or filament winding. Pultruded tubes are by far the most cost-effective method of manufacturing continuous composite profiles. When pultruding a hollow tube, a floating mandrel is required. A chromed steel rod is firmly affixed in place on the side of the die where the raw material enters. The mounting hardware is far enough away that does not interfere with the impregnated fiber as it enters the die. The space between the mandrel and the die will determine the wall thickness of the carbon fiber tube. Pultruding carbon fiber tubes allow for the production of tubing of virtually any length. Transportation of the tube is generally the restriction on length. In pultrusion, most of the fiber will run the direction of the tube. This creates a tube with a tremendous about of stiffness, but not much hoop strength, or cross-directional strength. Filament Wound Carbon Fiber Tubes For increased strength and properties in all directions, filament winding is an effective method in manufacturing carbon fiber tubes. Filament wound tubes are cost effective and have excellent properties, however, the largest limitation is based on the length of the winding machine. Other Manufacturing Processes Pultrusion and filament winding, although the most common, is not the only way to manufacture carbon fiber tubes. Bladder molding, compression molding, vacuum infusion, and autoclave processing are all methods to manufacture carbon fiber tubes. Each has its own advantage and disadvantage as well.

Branding Assignment Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 2000 words

Branding - Assignment Example The companies look at branding to create certain amount of awareness and reputation related to the product and the organization and places the firm at a better place in the market. The real value of brand comes from its ability to add values and delivering profit to the organization by creating loyalty among the customers. Branding is not only used in terms of marketing but also from the financial perspective. Getting the value recognition and image for the customers helps the organization to gain financial impact (Schatte, 2010; Clifton, 2010; Blackett and Boad, 1999; Franzen and Moriarty, 2008). This report focuses on the company Cinnabon Inc., that started its first operation in the year 1985 in the Sea Tac Mall. The company was specially known for its â€Å"world's best cinnamon roll†, which was prepared after the team found the best flavoured cinnamon in Indonesia and mastered the recipe (Cinnabon, Inc., 2012a). This company has grown into a world famous brand with its un matched craving appeal among the customers for their baked goods and various types of beverages. This report aims to design a branding strategy for Cinnabon Inc. Current branding strategy of Cinnabon Inc. Few decades ago Cinnabon Inc. ... bon to the distribution channel along with the varied range of products and at the same time making sure that the expanding brand of Cinnabon continuous to operate as an integrated and seamless whole (Fehrenbach, 2013; BusinessWire, 2013). Multi-Channel Operations Cinnabon Inc, does not operates as a one-dimensional brand that plays in just one segment or channel. They are into a multichannel business leading the brand across different channels and ensuring that every channel integrates with each other so that it can accelerate the brand image. Thus, the multichannel brand management successfully is the major challenge for the organization. The organization is currently operating in about 48 countries with over 900 franchises and is approaching towards the annual sales of about $1 billion (Fehrenbach, 2013; Goudreau, 2012). In recent years the organization has experienced a magnificent growth by creating and marketing new products that can looked through two new conduits such as lice nsed product that are sold by other outlets like fast-food restaurants and consumer packaged goods that are sold in grocery stores. Immediate consumption food services has been operating as the main channel through the franchise bakeries, which is the most common company’s face to the consumers; but now the company has planned to move towards few more newer channels like grocery retail and food service licensing (Thorn, 2013). Therefore, the main aim of Cinnabon Inc. at present to manage these multichannel operations such they mingle among themselves well and enhance the brand image of the organization. Protection of Brand Image Using multiple channels to make the products available to the consumer opens door to other challenges too like protecting the brand. According to Cole there are

MGM626-0902A-03 Economics for Decision-Making - Phase 2 Individual Project - Essay Example The products are also identical and there is complete freedom of entry to the market. Moreover the information about the products and prices from various firms are also available to the customers at no cost. Hence, in a perfect competition, the price is purely set by the market and the firms adhere to the price (Salvatore, 2006). In the case of CPI, if it decides to raise the prices of the toothpaste unilaterally, the demand for the firm’s toothpaste will be completely reduced and the firm will lose its market share. Customers will prefer to buy the products which are priced at the market rate. This will eventually lead to the shutdown of the product totally. In this case, the market price of the toothpaste is increased to $ 54 per case. As discussed earlier, it is evident that the profit is maximized when the marginal cost (MC) equals the marginal revenue (MR). The marginal cost function remains unchanged as MC = 0.006 Q, as the costs are unaffected due to raise in prices. Also, the marginal revenue will equal price, as the sale of an additional case results in a revenue equal to the price per case. In a perfect competition, the market price rises only when the demand rises from the current level. In such a case, the supply also has to rise to meet the demand. The point where the supply meets the demand is set as the market price. Hence it is very clear that the demand in the market has risen (Sloman and Sutcliffe, 2004). This will lead to the profit maximizing level of the firms to increase, as the firms now have the opportunity to exploit a higher demand than usual with increased prices. It is important to note that the products of all the firms are homogenous and are not differentiated in a perfect market. Moreover the customers already have all the information about the products available in the market. Hence it is very difficult to create an impact by advertising the product. The main theme of advertising is to provide information

Exercise as a Means of Preventing Substance Abuse Relapse Essay

Exercise as a Means of Preventing Substance Abuse Relapse - Essay Example The situation may cause other illnesses associated with poor eating habits. The multiple disorders caused by substance abuse are referred to as co-morbidity. The risk factors associated with substance abuse include the availability of the substance and peer influence. Many people start using alcohol. Young adults are also likely to start abusing drugs in order to fit in their peer groups. Another big cause is the immaturity and difficulty in relating to parents. This has resulted in parents not even aware of their children’s daily activities and doings. Other risk factors include poor management of problems in families. Studies also show that ADHD also increases the risks using drugs among children and adults. Â  It is important to note that mental health disparities are also recorded among the substance users. Another major catalyst for the increase in alcohol abuse is the economic problems. Individuals who lack financial capabilities are more likely to have more mental prob lems connected with substance abuse because of their inability to seek medical help in time. The teachings of the targeted group about the effects of exercises will focus on two Erickson’s developmental stages. These stages are the intimacy versus isolation and the generative versus Stagnation. Â  It will also focus on Piaget’s development concepts within the Formal Operational Stage. The cognitive abilities developed at this stage include logical thinking and deductive reasoning, starting from adolescent years to adulthood.
