The concept of personhood (who is a person within a society) is the fundamental component of any selective concept of people. A distinction is maintained in philosophy and law between the notions "human being", or "man", and "person". The former refers to the species, while the latter refers to a rational agent (see, for example, John Locke's Essay concerning Human Understanding II 27 and Immanuel Kant's Introduction to the Metaphysic of Morals). Central issues of interest to people are the understanding of the human condition and the meaning of life, and survival. Religion, philosophy, and science show or represent modes and aspects of inquiry which attempt to investigate and understand the nature, behavior, and purpose of people. Sociology, economics, and politics represent modes by which people investigate how to maximize a collective survival strategy. From Wikipedia under the

Hey people, I am just wondering how do people color cartoon pictures with computer? I am trying to color this cartoon picture I drew. I've already scanned it into the computer but do not have any idea how people can clean the scanned image and color it. Is it photoshop? If yes, any recommended sites that teach people how to color? Thanks people. Asked by Bobby L - Sat Oct 27 23:35:01 2007 - - 2 Answers - 3 Comments A. You can save it in .bmp format and open it in paint then color it easily. Answered by socoms8_ball - Sat Oct 27 23:41:25 2007 What do people often forget to consider when choosing a breed? Q. What should people consider why starting to choose a breed? What is often overlooked when people fall in love with a breed? Does this generally happen because people don't consider it at all, or because they think they can make the dog adapt to it because they really want the breed even though it isn't a good fit? What were some of the worst breed choices you have seen people make? Asked by sciencechick - Mon Nov 17 17:23:29 2008 - - 15 Answers - 0 Comments A. The most overlooked would be the dog's energy level, grooming needs and basic breed characteristics. It's appalling to me that people think they can keep a breed like a german shepherd or border collie in an apartment. Or think a dog like a lab is good with a half hour walk a day. My pet peeve is people who buy a gorgeous, long-haired breed (afghans come to mind!), then keep their hair cut short because they're too bloody lazy to groom the dog. Then there's those who are dismayed because their terriers dig and bark, their beagles bay, etc. Too many people in this world of instant gratification are lacking the common sense to research a breed before getting it - then when they find they can't groom, train or exercise it, the dog ends… [cont.] Answered by walking lady - Mon Nov 17 17:39:57 2008 How do some people get to be fortunate enough to have work @ home jobs, & they don't help others get them?
Q. I mean, even if it ISN'T a home-based business. I hear how some people work @ home. How can some people be lucky like that if 97% of work @ home offers are scams? & for people who ARE successfully working from home, how come you can't tell anyone what you do & how you get access to such good job? I thought with business, you're supposed to recruit people & help them, too. Asked by Question Queen Y!A veteran - Sat Jul 26 12:13:16 2008 - - 1 Answers - 1 Comments A. Because nobody actually has those work-at-home jobs, and legitimate business owners want their staff to show up to the workplace every day. The few people who do really work at home aren't just cruising the internet spamming message boards and posting AdWords. They're typing legal documents as a transcriptionist or paralegal, running their own home-based technical business or consultancy, or being brokers, bakers, etc. They have no use for a faraway home-based staff member who they're never going to meet.
