Abstract The focus of this paper is Carl Sauer's view of what constitutes the proper philosophy or perspective on education in geography, and also the main components it ought to have. The paper will also discuss the fact that Sauer was writing about fifty years ago and some of what he recommended (and experienced in his own education), has changed; some has remained the same.
Abstract This paper discusses how each individual progresses through the social order with the expectations of conforming to religious political community and personal expectations. Religion is in theory supposed to address the spiritual needs of the individual. The paper further discusses that as religions are consistently changing in society, this is not often the case. Medicine may address the diseases and illnesses that can be scientifically detected in the patient but often times there is pain that cannot be identified as having a direct physical cause. Psychologists, such as Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung, believed that as human beings progressed through life their psychological conditions would create upheaval in a way that could create physical and spiritual unrest, with no apparent cure for the ailment.
Abstract This paper describes the concepts put forward by Carl Jung. The paper begins by discussing Jung's life and the history of his works. It describes him as a psychiatrist and founder of analytical psychology. The paper discusses the ways he used his background on Freudian theories to explore the "inner space" of the human psyche, involving mythology, religion, and philosophy into his studies and becoming an expert in mystic symbolism.

From the Paper "Socrates, Aristotle and Plato opened the floor for the study of human behavior and mental life in their philosophical discourses. The fundamental question involved what motivated man to do the thighs he does and how ideas come about. Two thousand years have passed and these questions remain the driving force behind the study of the human psyche- of Psychology."
This paper discusses the life and work of Carl Orff, a German composer born in Munich, Germany, in 1895, who is most famous for his composition, "Carmina Burana".
Abstract This paper describes that Carl Orff's genius in music was nourished and developed into a master's art at the Academy for the Musical Arts, a music school in Munich. The author points out that Karl Orff believed that every child has a talent for music; hence, his "Schulwerk" is a pedagogical compilation of music for children. This paper explains that "Carmina Burana", or "Songs of Benedikbeuern", is a cantata including songs of drinking, food, love, and happiness, which are based on an old manuscript. Illustrations.

From the Paper "Today, Orff Schulwerk has been a music tradition in many nations worldwide. It has long been established in countries such as the USA, Austria, Hungary, Germany, and Greece. Aside from being an institute of music education for children, as it has been since the 1950s, Schulwerk is extended as a music institute for adults alike. In the USA, the American Orff-Schulwerk Association is a music institute that adheres to the teaching techniques developed by Orff and Keetman.

Abstract In the first segment of this paper the techniques and theoretical perceptions used in symbolic/experiential family therapy are outlined. The paper mentions that Virginia Satir and Walter Kemplar are also seen as having had equal, initial importance in the birth of experiential family therapy. However, the paper concentrates mainly on the work of Carl Whitaker and his colleagues, whose style of therapy differs greatly from that of Satir and Kemplar. The second section of this paper paints a picture of how these sessions of symbolic, experiential therapy might appear in order to give the reader a deeper understanding of the applicability of Whitaker's somewhat unconventional methods.

From the Paper "Anxiety and confusion are increased through use of metaphors, teasing, humor, free association, fantasy, confrontation or silence. The underlying premise being that the way to promote individual growth and family cohesion is to liberate effects and impulses. This is often referred to as "expanding the symptom" and is done to refocus the family members on the problem as within the family, as opposed to one person having the problem. (Connell, et al.; 1999, pp.53)"
Abstract This paper relates that evaluating and comparing human personality theories requires an examination of the history of psychology and an appraisal of the most prominent theorists. The author points out that Sigmund Freud and Carl Rogers have influenced psychology profoundly with distinctly different approaches to therapy. The paper explains that Sigmund Freud's psychoanalysis and Carl Rogers' humanistic therapy each have their strengths and weaknesses, but humanistic psychology seems to have much greater potential than Freudian analysis.
From the Paper "In evaluating personality theory, it is important to examine the professional history and experiences of the theorists themselves, for these factors inevitably influence the formulation of their theories. We are all products of our own distinctive life experiences, and famous psychologists are no exception. Sigmund Freud and Carl Rogers were each influenced consciously and subconsciously by their own unique heredity, their respective professional environments, and a host of other personal, educational, and professional circumstances and events. The respective theories of personality they each constructed reflect all of these influences. Robbins (1999) notes that psychoanalysis was founded by Sigmund Freud more than a century ago."
Abstract This paper discusses Carl Rogers as the founder of client-centered therapy. It first describes and examines his concept of client-centered therapy and how it needs to be applied by therapists during treatment sessions. The paper then looks at the ways that Rogers has influenced many psychological theories and therapies present today, especially positive psychology.

Conclusion
From the Paper "Many of Carl Rogers's ideas have been influential on modern psychological practices, and specifically in the area of positive psychology. Client-centered therapy is humanistic in nature and is concerned with the quality of human experience. Froh (2004) posits that positive psychology mimics the ideas of Rogers's theory in that it emphasizes the importance of positive subjective experiences to achieve significant personal growth, even though many positive psychologists have attempted to distance themselves and the new theory from past models of therapy. Many positive psychology theorists believe that those in the humanistic realm did not use scientific methodologies as a foundation for their theories. However, "humanistic psychology has an extensive research base that uses both positivistic and phenomenological designs" (Misiak & Sexton, 1973; as cited in Froh, p. 19)."
Abstract The following paper is a review of the background of the company: Carl's Jr. Restaurants, its products, its internal marketing and competition. The branding techniques currently being used and a comparative analysis of CKE and the industry "leader" McDonald's are also discussed.
From the Paper "The history of Carl's Jr. restaurants is similar to that of McDonalds ? an enterprising young man realized the potential in providing consistent food "fast" to passersby and drive-up customers. Carl Karcher delivered bakery goods to various locations and, noticing how good business was at a hot dog sidewalk stand in L.A., took out a loan on his car to buy it. He and his wife, Margaret, sold hot dogs, chili, tamales and soda for a nickel. Within four years, they were able to expand their operation to four stands, and then moved to Anaheim, California, where they opened their first full-service restaurant, Carl's Drive In Barbecue, adding hamburgers to the menu. In 1956, Carl opened the first two Carl's Jr. restaurants in Anaheim and nearby Brea ? he chose the name based on the idea that they were "junior" versions of his full-service restaurant, utilizing the fast food concept: customers paid at the time they placed their order and received their food quickly. Within a decade, Carl was operating 24 restaurants, with a fast-growing reputation for quality food and great service. The company incorporated in 1966 as Carl Karcher Enterprises, Inc.?
Abstract Robert Frost and Carl Sandburg are both important poets in their own right. Although they both grew up in the same era, their poetry styles have many differences. The paper firstly states their different origins, history and poetic style. Secondly, it analyzes a selected major work ? "The Road Not Taken" and ?The Road and The End,? ? of Frost and Sandburg respectively. It is worth noticing that the chosen poetry of both poets contain many elements of similarity. This makes the chosen sample most suitable to distinguish the most minor, as well as the major differences in the poetic styles of the writers. Thus, in the paper, their lives and poetic styles are compared and contrasted using an example of their poetry.
From the Paper "Unlike the individualized thinking of Frost, and the reflection of his viewpoints on life, Sandburg carries the spirit of the people in his writings. As was appreciated for being the voice of the Americans, Carl Sandburg emphasizes the voice of the nation in his writings. Unlike giving answers to one's personal questions that arise within, Sandburg responds to the thoughts that live in every person's life and mind. If Robert Frost can be said to be digging into his own experiences in his poetry, Sandburg can be called to be analyzing the experiences of his fellow countrymen, and responding to them with his poems, with him as a countrymen or the unified spirit of the nation, in most of them."
Abstract This paper analyzes the book "Absolut : Biography of a Bottle" by Carl Hamilton and discusses the story of how Absolut Vodka emerged as an unknown product and with a unique marketing strategy managed to conquer the United States market.
From the Paper "The first step in the story is the proposal Gunnar Broman, head of Sweden's top advertising agency, made to New York executives in 1978. At this time the belief was that all good vodka came from Russia. In reality, vodka had been being produced in Sweden for centuries, but the cultural belief in America was that vodka came from Russia."
Abstract This paper discusses the lives of Archimedes and Carl Friedrich Gauss, two of the greatest mathematicians of all time. The paper provides a point by point comparison of their childhood and education, outlines each of their mathematical contributions and examines the influence their work continues to have on the science of mathematics.
From the Paper "Far more details survive about the life of Archimedes than about any other ancient scientist, but scholars disagree on which details are fact and which are anecdotal. The most famous Archimedes story centers on how he determined the proportion of gold and silver in a crown made for Hieron through measuring water displacement. Since he supposedly made the discovery while in the bathtub, the excited Archimedes ran naked through the streets of Syracuse shouting ?Eureka!? (Muir 20)."
Abstract This essay deals with an indepth look at the psychological theory of Carl Jung and how it came to be. It speaks of the influences from his personal life as well as those from other psychologists of the time. The essay looks at the idea of archetypes and how dreams manifest what is really in our unconscious mind and that to be a "whole" person one has to face the unconscious.
From the Paper "Man is not an isolated figure, but lives in a world that has many facets. Being constantly immersed in a specific culture and environment is bound to affect any field of study in which one is engaged. This is true for Carl Jung and his analytic personality psychology. Throughout his life, Jung was greatly affected by many events and incidents. He strived to make sense of them in an organized manner, but it was not until later in life that he was able to fully understand the true meaning of these events. Jung brought to his work and theories personal experiences, familial relations experiences, as well as the cultural-historical ideas of his time that, combined would give Jung the foundation he needed to create his great psychological theory."
Abstract The paper traces the roots of Carl Jung's interest in psychology, from his studies in science to his personal feelings of connecting to something deeper within the human mind through the analysis of dreams. This self-proclaimed inner wisdom helped to define his personality theory. The writer looks into this theory and how Jung applied it to his patients.
From the Paper "Jung graduated in 1902 with a broad background in biology, zoology, paleontology and archaeology and began his work in "associations" in which a patients response to stimulus words signified what Jung called "complexes" one of his terms that are still in use today. At this time, Jung discovered the works of his mentor, Sigmund Freud. Despite the value Jung saw in Freud's work, he was not able to accept Freud's idea that repression is caused by sexual trauma. Jung published Symbols of Transformation in 1912, which challenged some of Freud's basic ideas and precluded his break with Freud. Jung began developing his theories, using his vast knowledge of mythology and history, his encounters with the diverse cultures of New Mexico, India, and Kenya, and his memories of the dreams and fantasies of his childhood (Fadiman and Frager, p. 56)."

Abstract This paper examines how Carl L. Becker was one of the most eminent American historians of the early 20th century. It looks at how his long and distinguished career and his impressive list of scholarly monographs alone qualify him as an important figure in the development of historical understanding and how his contributions to historical methodology were equally weighty. It shows how Becker was a progressive historian and how his historical analyses tended to focus on how historical process lead to later development and how these later developments could indeed be seen in the earlier historical precedents. He saw history as defined solely by the store of knowledge that we have about a historical event.
From the Paper "Becker's work was typically presented in book format, and, while in his early work, especially, he presented his work in ways that were meant to be scholarly and academic, his work was to have a much broader popular appeal as well. As a progressive historian, much of Becker's concern was in reevaluating history and in occasionally examining social movements that were not culturally dominant in considering how they also affected history. As a result of his interest in action and untold narrative, Becker has a tendency to bias these elements in his later work. Often, he focuses on how events have continued to be significant today, rather than focusing on their unique historical importance of the time. Similarly, he is often willing to privilege the untold history of a movement that had not received what he considered to be a significant enough amount of historical attention over received historical narratives that were commonly accepted."
