... in the Western Hemisphere. Appreciable gains were made in crop reduction, in interdiction, in weakening trafficking syndicates, strengthening law enforcement, and in targeting drug money laundering.

Number of Words: 1031 / Number of Pages: 4

... cheerless room with no one but themselves for company. There were no toys in the rooms, the children were neglected day after day, and most died at a very young age, much to the relief of their families.
These newscasts also told of other horror stories. Finn (1996) writes that children were abused, burned and beaten by institutional caretakers, but the alternative was perhaps even worse.

Another example of why redrawing boundaries is a bad idea is to look at reapportio ...

... Since the new code of conduct produces equality, and since it sets forth equal status among individuals, then the students will have a standard that the entire province takes part in. Now, the schools are going from each one entailing their code of conduct. To treating all schools as equals. For example, if a student in Ontario skips out of class, and if the student receives a punishment (making up that class on their time ® weekends), then the students in other provinces will not skip out of class.
