Obedience to Authority
Obedience is an essential part of everyday life of members of modern society. This word has become a synonym of good work and quality performance in the work place.

National Law Center on Homelessness and Poverty
Over the past year more than 3 million Americans were homeless. A scary thing is that a lot more people are at risk of becoming homeless. The Department of Housing and Urban Development conducted a study in 2001 which showed that nearly 5 million low-income American households were paying more than a half of their income on rent and thus were a great risk of becoming homeless.

Koryo-Choson Dynastic Change
The transition from Koryo to Choson dynasties was not a drastic and radical change in the historic sense. It was a rather logical and reasonable transformation not of the ruling power in Korea but societal, economic and cultural change that was caused by centuries of Koryo rule.

Sawyer who is a chairman of House Sub-committee on Census, Statistics, and Postal Personnel. Although the question of race and ethical belongingness could seem to be of a minor importance in other countries, it is a very debatable and controversial issue in the States.
