Animal Testing: Testing....1....2...3
Number of Words: 963 / Number of Pages: 4
... transplants are beginning
to become a more and more common every day. Who knows what is possible with the
proper research. Today there are a great deal of people who oppose animal
testing in laboratory research. This is limiting our medical capabilities .
Could we be holding ourselves back from medical breakthroughs such as a cure for
cancer or AIDS? Animal testing is already controlled to a great extent. Many
cats and dogs are killed annually by shelters and pounds. Animal testing is not
as cruel as it is portrayed and is an essential to reaching medical
breakthroughs.

Ethical Decision Making Model
Number of Words: 1510 / Number of Pages: 6
... when I joined Blitz. Recently, there have been a large number of complaints in the shipping department, and Tom believes that someone is setting him up. The poor performance in the shipping department has caused many problems. Deadlines have not been met, employee turnover rate is high, and John, my best salesman, is losing major accounts. Also, Paul, a promising young employee, who I have been thinking about replacing Tom with, has just informed me that he has been offered another job with another company. He also gave me an ultimatum. He said that if I cannot offer him a higher position s ...

Why People Dye Their Hair
Number of Words: 921 / Number of Pages: 4
... on the
dye or the way you dye it, or sometimes on pure luck.
Sometimes people dye their hair because they need a change. They're
sick of the brown-haired, boring old person they see in the mirror every
day, and want to add a little spice to their look. It's really hard to be
boring looking when your hair can be seen from a block away. It's a valid
reason to make a change, and seems like a good idea to me.
A more common reason that people dye their hair, but most wouldn't
admit to, is to try to be "cool". If making friends or getting respect is
your reason for bringing out the dye, I would seriou ...

Materialism Is The Root Of All Evil
Number of Words: 529 / Number of Pages: 2
... to be somebody, to pursue
our own happiness. Even our own Declaration of Independence assumes we are
individuals first and for most: "We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that
all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain
unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of
Happiness. . ." For Americans to be primarily self-reliant and selfish is not
surprising. Americans only do what is beneficial to themselves, if it helps
someone along the way, then that's great, but helping people is not their
initial motive.
In order to have the neces ...

Marriage: Try It Before You Chance It
Number of Words: 456 / Number of Pages: 2
... problem has now become your problem. This exact situation is known to break 4 out of 10 marriages in the U.S. today. (Los Angeles Times) The last thing any happily married couple wants is to end up in a divorce court over an issue such as this one. By living together first, is one possible way of avoiding a situation like this.
Another example would be if any young lady were to marry a totally housebroken mama’s boy. Being a mama’s boy is something a guy would not just admit to. That’s usually that is only viewed by other people. But once they are married he’s probably going to expect for her to co ...

“A Fair Chance For The Girls”
Number of Words: 445 / Number of Pages: 2
... this article was not convincing to me I was still able to point out strengths and weakness and the one strength that I saw was the way he tried to draw you in by believing that by stating the effects on the reproductive system and the brain. The weakness that I found in this reading was his failure to cite more cases of this so-called “fair chance”. When I say that I mean that maybe if he could have showed us more then maybe we {women} might have seen this as a fair warning that before we get to deep into the learning process we should sit down and evaluate his findings.
I really just thi ...

Sex In Black, White And Mulatto
Number of Words: 1647 / Number of Pages: 6
... for sex.2 This, of course, is not true.
Not all slave women were so compelled to give into their owner's demands.
For some slaves the only way they could resist the advances of an
oncoming sexual predator was through resistance. Such an example is Jermain
Loguen's mother. When attacked, "she picked up a stick and dealt her would-
be rapist a blow that sent him staggering. She stood her ground even as he
rebounded with a knife, and finally she knocked him out cold."3 The
punishment for such aggressive actions though often involved a whip, a
slave auction or a bullet to the head. Another reason ...

Civilize The Wilderness
Number of Words: 515 / Number of Pages: 2
... computers, fax machines, cellular
phones, and all of the modern conveniences that we have today. The fact is,
that many people believe that the wilderness is like an unborn country. A
country that has nothing and is striving to become more advanced. We see
this as an opportunity to better it and make it seem like we are actually
helping. But, are we really helping? In my opinion, no. I feel that we
are destroying something natural and something of beauty.
In many ways we are making the wilderness worse by civilizing it.
We put unnatural objects into the wilderness, and it destroys the
wildernes ...

... parent produces which type of child or which
type of child elicits which type of parental behaviour," explains
Oldershaw.
As a result of their work, Walters and Oldershaw have identified
distinct categories of abusive parents and their children.
'Harsh/intrusive' mothers are excessively harsh and constantly badger
their child to behave. Despite the fact that these mothers humiliate
and disapprove of their child, there are times when they hug, kiss or
speak to them warmly. This type of mothering produces an aggressive,
disobedient child.
A 'covert/hostile' mother sh ...
