Tab. 3.2 Temperature effects on the ion product constant of water (pKw = logKw)

That was the stage setting, so to speak, for the production known as the twentieth century. Looking back, we can see that the playwright provided plenty of clues for what was to come. Accordingly, it is highly instructive to look around us today for a sneak preview of what we can expect tomorrow. However, one of the most profound events that would direct much of our present century occurred long before it began, back in 1848 smack dab in the middle of the nineteenth century. In that year, Karl Marx and his associate, Friedrich Engels, published the Communist Manifesto. Its goal was novel and even noble: To create a new society where there would be a fair and equitable distribution of wealth, ending the vast disparities between the rich and the poor. The concept of Marxism, more commonly known in practice as communism, would dominate the political thought of Europe and later Asia for most of the twentieth century. Today, some 150 years after the concept was conceived, we know it to have been an unmitigated failure. The truth was of cially ashed to the world in 1990 at what seemed like another traditional May Day celebration in Moscow Red Square. As usual, all the government top brass were present, as usual there were banners and marches and songs, as usual there was all the expected pomp and circumstance. But something was drastically different. It was the banner! Communists: have no illusions you are bankrupt, it blatantly proclaimed right there, in the middle of Moscow Red Square, on May Day 1990! Indeed, those of us, citizens of planet Earth, fortunate enough to be present in the nal decade of the twentieth century, have been privileged to witness events equal to any celebrated milestone in the history of mankind. In what seemed like a made-for-TV video, we were ringside spectators at a global rebellion. In less than an eye-blink in terms of world history, the Berlin Wall fell, Germany was uni ed, apartheid ended, Eastern Europe was liberated, the Cold War ceased, and a doctrine that impaired the freedom of three generations, wrecked the economies of scores of nations, and misdirected the destiny of the entire planet for seven decades was decisively repudiated. What a magni cent triumph of democracy and freedom. What a glorious victory for capitalism and free markets. What a majestic tribute to Thomas Jefferson, Adam Smith, Abraham Lincoln, Friedrich Hayek, and Milton Friedman. What a divine time to be alive. Surely these represented the de ning moments of the twentieth century. But let us be clear: What transpired was not the result of a single in uence but rather of a multitude of forces. Nor did the wild re of freedom we witnessed occur by virtue of a random spark. The underground ame took years to overpower the forces of tyranny. It was fueled by some universal truths: that fundamental human rights cannot forever be denied; that totalitarianism is evil; and that an economic system based on central planning is vastly inferior to a market-driven economic order.

Although earlier conceptualisations have considered stress to be a feature of the external environment or a feature of the individual (e.g. an internal physiological response), the cognitive transactional theory of stress (Lazarus & Folkman, 1984) places stress as the relationship between an individual and her environment. In this model stress is experienced when the demands of some person environment encounter exceed an individual s resources for coping with that situation. Although stress can be studied at many levels (e.g. environmental, biological), the cognitive transactional theory of stress is essentially psychological. It requires not only the presence of some (potential) stressor but also the absence

Once you have selected a course, you need to select the players you wish to score in this round. You can add as little or as much information about your partners as you wish. Once a player has been entered, you don t need to keep adding them for future rounds, as their profiles are stored in the mScorecard database. Figure 10-10 shows the player selection screen in action. You are now ready to tee off! mScorecard starts by presenting you with a scoring form for the first hole, as shown in Figure 10-11, and thereafter moves from hole to hole as you progress through your round. Entering scores is simple. Just use the trackwheel to navigate to the cell entry where you wish to record information and either type in a value or choose a value from the menu.
