Abstract
The paper uses Rollo May's book, "The Courage to Create" as a basis for describing the creative genius of Beethoven and Mozart.

From the Paper
"Rollo May in "The Courage to Create" states that creativity is a yearning for immortality. In his text, he sees the creative person as a rebel but also believes that creativity requires limits because the creative act arises from the struggle of human beings with and against that which limits them. In the life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, creativity was linked to such attitudes as hedonism and such constructs as organicism, contextualism and moralism as is evident in "The Magic Flute".

Abstract
Ecosystem engineering is one factor in the realm of ecology, which happens when certain organisms create, alter, and preserve natural habitats. Ecosystem engineering can change significantly modify biodiversity and the distribution and quantity of a large numbers of animals and plants (Jones et al., 1994, 1997; Wright et al., 2002; Lill & Marquis, 2003). Human beings are considered to be ecosystem engineers, however, such engineers also exist in what most consider the natural or animal/organism world.

Abstract
This paper examines how two parallel magazines, "Shape" and "Men's Health," with similar market bases, target women and men with similar interests and from similar lifestyles and age groups. It compares the different ways the magazines conceptualize their readership and how the magazine's advertising attempts to influence the targeted reading populations, despite the mutual parallel between the target audiences in their interest in living a fit lifestyle.

From the Paper
"Both magazines discuss fitness, nutrition, going out, and what to wear when working out and going out on a monthly basis, in both male and female incarnations. One of the most pernicious stereotypes that cling to women's magazines, as noted by Mary Kay Blakely, in her essay, "Help or Hindrance" Women's Magazines Offer Readers Little Fear, Failure" is that such women's-targeted magazines as "Shape" are alleged to hinder women's pursuit of independence. Yet "Shape" magazine, and other female fitness magazines of its ilk, all often show women pumping iron, riding mountain bikes in the great outdoors as well as in great gyms, and show examples of women pushing themselves beyond their available limits on the playing courts as well as in terms of weight loss."

Abstract
This paper, broken down into five parts, describes the creation of a true experiment to examine the use of stationary cameras in crime prone areas. All elements are included, explained and discussed. The author also includes discussions related to data gathered, the test instrument itself and the validity and reliability of the results. The forth section discusses the advantages and disadvantages of cross-sectional, panel and trend designs and which is most effective. Finally, in the fifth section, the writer presents a discussion of the relationship among the various concepts explained in the text.

From the Paper
"One of the ways to determine the causal impact of certain conditions upon social groups it through the use of "True Experiments". True Experiments contain at least three elements, being: at least two comparison group, an experimental group and the control group; before the measuring of change in the dependent variable, a variation must be made in the independent variable; and, members of the comparison groups are randomly assigned (Schutt, 2006, p.201). These elements are important in determining the causal mechanism and controlling the experiment."

Abstract
This paper is an instructional essay that teaches a typewriter user how to use MS Word for the first time to create a document and format the references in APA style. The paper describes the differences between using a typewriter and computer software. The paper concludes by discussing the benefits of using a computer.

From the Paper
"I'm going to teach you how to create a document in Microsoft Word. On a typewriter you simply type in the words that you want to appear on the page and they are imprinted directly on the paper. On a computer, though, software programs are necessary to process the words inside the computer so that the computer knows how to print them. Microsoft Word is a software program for creating documents. There are a lot of benefits..."

Abstract
The paper explains that when it comes to creating homemade musical instruments, the students will perform several language functions including reading and writing. The paper discusses how creating homemade musical instruments gives them an opportunity to inform, exchange information about different instruments, to interact by writing about why they chose a specific instrument, and then to play their musical instrument.

From the Paper
"Primary Subject: Music. Secondary Subject: Language Arts. Grade Level: 6th. Objective: Perform two language functions while learning about music by creating a handmade musical instrument. The basic objective of this lesson plan is to connect reading, writing, and creating a musical instrument as different language functions. This assignment gives the student three language functions to perform: To inform, to command, to indicate continuity of actions. The student must be..."

Abstract
This paper first relates that the literature review supporting the research clearly indicates that the provision of adjunct tourism services to hajj pilgrims has become a growth industry. Next, the author outlines the purposes of the study to provide tour operators with verified information about relevant sites to enhance the hajj experience and to understand the elements that are important to these pilgrims.The paper suggests a secondary research methodology using a critical review of the relevant peer-reviewed and scholarly literature and a primary methodology using a custom quantitative and qualitative survey of hajj pilgrims and tour service patrons designed to identify those elements of the experience that are deemed most important. The paper includes statistical tables and figures.

From the Paper
"Since the birth of Islam, it has been a requirement that all Muslims who are able to do so must perform the Hajj, or pilgrimage, to Mecca at least once in a lifetime. Since the earliest days there are certain to have been those who have performed their pilgrimage before subsequently failing to return home for one reason or another. This suggests that the attraction to these holy sites and the region in which they are situated is sufficiently compelling to a large number of Muslims to make these areas highly attractive in terms of their potential as tourist attractions as well."

Abstract
In "Paddy Clarke, Ha Ha Ha", Paddy's father is distant and pre-occupied, dismissive and cursory in his attention to his children. The situation is more complex as the 'father' is absent in "Lives of the Saints" and various surrogates, including Vittorio's mother, her lover and grandparents must fill this role.

Abstract
The author of the paper shows that graphic communication has always been important through history as an art, and therefore website designing today should be based on the same principals of art as a painting or a sculpture. The author argues that the best website will be founded on the principles of art and even recognized as art itself.

From the Paper
"Contrast must not stand alone, however. Pattern is also very important in graphic design, and goes hand in hand with balance and rhythm. For example, elements should be patterned to some degree geometrically. For example, if one were to take a ruler and drawn a straight vertical line from one of the corners of a left quadrant graphic, any graphics or text below it should be placed with some reference to this imaginary line. The squaring, or even circling of elements is important to direct the eye, and provide coherency. In addition, pattern may be used to group similar elements spacially. It should dictate the way in which typefaces are applied as well, so that there is a repetition of usage. (e.g. sans serif typeface is always a header, Roman typeface is always used in the text, thus establishing expectations and an ability to interpret the data one is receiving based on this pattern)"

Abstract
This paper will perform a book review of the book "Self Matters: Creating Your Life from the Inside Out" by Philip McGraw. By showing how he reveals his methods of self-help for his readership, we can see how Freud's personality theories can be compared.
