Skateboarding is a very extreme sport. Professional skateboarders are dedicated to being as extreme as they can in competition. Skateboard competition is divided into three categories which are: vert, street, and freestyle.The first type of competition is vert or vertical riding. Vert competitions began in empty swimming pools, but are now held in large half pipes. A half pipe is considered the more difficult one. While on the half pipe, skateboarders try to rise beyond the coping of the half pipe and perform various tricks. Vert competition is considered the most radical form of skateboarding in terms of risk.The second type of competition is street. Street competition involves performing a

First off, Stem cells are the earliest of cells that give rise to other types of cells, and have the potential to turn into many different types of tissue. Like Totipotent cells. Totipotent cells are considered the "master" cells of the body because they contain all the genetic information needed to create all the cells of the body, plus the placenta. So in other words, Stem Cell research can go along way to figure out the body's functions, and disease causing illnesses.So the British took in affect that this research is extremely valuable to their country and waist no time in testing their research further.

When linguists claim that their discipline is the scientific study of language, they have in mind certain principles which distinguish between a scientific and a non-scientific study of language. First, linguistics is objective, that is, it considers all languages to be equal. For a linguist, there are no 'primitive', 'pure', 'beautiful', 'cultural', or 'sophisticated' languages. Objectivity is difficult to attain because language is so familiar to us that we can hardly dissociate ourselves from it. The objective study of language is hindered by various cultural, social and historical misconceptions about certain languages. Linguistics has demonstrated that any language, however 'primitive

"One could say physical anthropology is closely related to the biological sciences just as cultural anthropology is closely related to the other social sciences and the humanities, however it is the integration of these two approaches that characterizes anthropology" (Haviland 7).Linguistic anthropology covers language of families and includes population migrations and informs the public of the importance of the culture. For example, a culture's many ways of describing a single word can denote the word's importance to that culture. "Ultimately, language is what allows people to preserve and transmit their culture from generation to generation" (Haviland 13).The

equilibrium theory in the postwar era has "made the theory a less useable tool" . To put it simply, economics has narrowed the horizon of what is knowable in development theory into a narrow band which comprises only the set of what can be measured. Anything else becomes nonexistent.Anxious not to lose its authority and dominance in the realm of development, a revolution has begun within economics. In order to account for the unknown forces in societal change, or what have been classified in the language of economists as market imperfections, it has sought to 'bring in' to its analyses the other social sciences.

This "intellectual reform" led not only to the transformation of science - which gradually developed into a range of many and varied sciences, each of them in turn splitting up into more and more specialized sub disciplines - but also to one of perceptions, structures, and institutions40. The break between arts and crafts and science reflected a break in the social order and hence a class distinction; technology, until then reserved for the "servile class," becomes the indispensable collaborator of speculative science, which had been reserved for the "professional class."41 This nearing of theory and practice was a revolutionary turn at both the intellectual and the social
