    It is important to keep honoring our veterans because they have sacrificed so much for this country. Also we honor them because we need to tell them how appreciative we are of their dutiful service to our country. Even the president honors our veterans. Each year the president or one of his representatives lays a wreath on The Tomb of The Unknown Soldiers in the Arlington Cemetery every Veterans Day to honor those veterans. Even though the first unknown soldier was laid to rest there on Armistice day on the year of 1921 this ceremony still continues. This is one way that shows just how important honoring our veterans…

    There are four major themes which emerge in early encounters with Vietnam veterans: control, integrity, ambiguity, and personal accountability. Theses themes indicate the presence of the disorder. Control is often the most significant issue in the initial session. “The depth of the therapy possible is largely determined by the extent to which the veteran believes he or she has self-control or the ability to predict emerging symptoms, outburst, or intrusive episodes.” (Dean 133) Integrity will always arise in the initial discussion with a veteran. It will usually arise in the form of blame or criticism of an institution or individual for a lack of integrity.…

    In 1918, President Wilson established November 11 as a day to show honor and thankfulness for those who have risked their lives for our country. This day was significant because it was "The War to end all Wars,” World War I. This day was mainly set aside to show pride to our veterans of World War I. In 1938, Armistice Day, Veterans Day original name, became a legal holiday. In 1945 just after World War II ended, congress changed Armistice Day to Veterans Day. Since then, Veterans Day was created to show pride to American Veterans of every war, with the oddity of a few years in which it was celebrated every year on a Monday, November 11th.…

    become a person of value”. ~Albert Einstein.Veterans are not just men and women who went to war. Veterans are the cause, we live in a safe country they are the cause, we walk on the sidewalk laughing and enjoying what life brings us. But the question in my mind is we laugh, play, and learn, what about Veterans they don’t laugh, they cry they don’t play they fight they don’t learn they die. We are not grateful we don’t respect the lives we live in every day. But that's not the point, we don’t even remember the reason we laugh, play and learn, if I were to tell you the number of people who died for us to have a bright future those numbers won’t matter the thoughts will. When I think about Veterans day I think about people who came back from the war and live a happy life, but I was wrong after learning the truth. Veterans day was the day we respect what we lose but even more we respect what we gained. That is what Veterans day means to me.…

    Like Robert X. Cringely says in his article “Facebook Puts Your Privacy on Parade”, Facebook owner, Mark Zuckerberg is having problems with his “privacy policy.” It all begins when Zuckerberg speaks for many at a ceremony saying that “Everyone is okay with their information being viewed by others.” Cringely goes on to talk about Zuckerbergs Social norm policy, meaning you can get away with just about anything in todays world compared to previous years. While talking about it, Cringley mentioned how Zuckerberg put everyones information non private without many knowing, however his was only public for a day. The article also mentions how the majority of the people who don’t care about information being public are those who buy and sell identity. The Privacy issue was a big deal to many but the severity depended on the person. Cringely called Zuckerbergs idea a “beginners mind” as it got him in trouble with 350 million of his users for potentially harming and putting them in risk. Then there was the other half of course, who posted and shared naked pictures and other eye sores to the social media page. Cringely’s part of the article focused more on what the public wanted while Zuckerberg focused more on what could bring him money.…
