The effects on major organ systems include a wide range of digestive disorders
such as ulcers, inflammation of the pancreas, and cirrhosis of the liver. The nervous system
can also be permanently damaged. Blackouts, hallucinations, and extreme tremors may
occur to the person as a direct result of drinking alcohol. Studies have evidence that
shows that heavy or even moderate drinking during pregnancy can cause serious damage

Gun Control- A Firing Issue
Words: 1334 - Pages: 5.... not be controlled.
Gun ownership by private citizens is protected under the 2nd Amendment. It
states that “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the
right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.†The forefathers of
our country meant for the people to own and use firearms, and any law or control on that
right would be unconstitutional. Gun control activists essentially believe the Second
Amendment guarantees only to its militia the right of arms, but the “Gun control
proponents have yet to identify even a single quote from one of the founders to support
their claim .....

An operational definition of my independent variable will be the reliability and validity of the journal articles selected for the study. One important factor for the operational definition will be what questions the articles ask and how well the findings they produce would support or not support my hypothesis. In fact, I used only studies that mentioned a relation in patient success or outcome and length of treatment, regardless of whether the outcome; or dependent variable, was positive or negative.

Abortion - Pro-Choice Views
Words: 1424 - Pages: 6.... say that emotional trauma and guilt haunts every woman after she has an abortion. However, during my research, I found numerous women who led (and continue to lead) prominent and scot-free lives after their abortions. I think that the mental state of the mother depends very much on her personal feelings toward abortion, and the actual experience the had before and during the abortion.
Pro-life propaganda
In my study of pro-lifers, I have found that most of the time, they employ the use of a few strategies for making their views known. One tactic pro-lifers use to convince people of their views is to play on fear and emotions. Their g .....

Juvenile Justice
Words: 870 - Pages: 4.... that.
The notion of separate treatment for children under criminal law goes back to a
very early English law. Children under seven years of age were legally
incapable of committing a crime, and children between seven and fourteen were
presumed incapable, this concept being based upon a child's inability to have a
guilty mind, or mens rea. Thus, from almost the beginning children have been
treated differently from adults who commit the same acts.
The origin of juvenile corrections in the United States goes, back at
least to the opening of the New York House of Refuge in 1825. This house of
refuge was established to meet the same kinds of .....

In fact, men and women have biologically different capacities and interests (aggressive vs. maternal feelings, etc) In the role of the family, men have power in making decision and the women have control of housework. @@@@I had encountered to see the different aspects of gender role in two societies. These two societies have their own values and beliefs that keep the man and the women different. However, the role of man is somewhat similar, though women have no similarities in a large scale. In Japan, women are .....

Presidential Debate `96
Words: 386 - Pages: 2.... seemed to overlap enough to cause an
answer similar to if not the same as an earlier one. I do admit, though,
that the questions did attack key points and some answers that were given
did seriously cause some thought not to where the vote is going, but where
it will lead us. The answers given were fairly definitive, and the only
topic not seriously touched was scandals such as Watergate, etc.
The debate was key in helping me decide a now important part of my
life. I have decided that I am a Democrat. I found most of what Clinton had
said to be closest to what I believe, but there were a few points where I
did agree with Dole. Particula .....

Its stance is that any testing is painful, inhumane, and unnecessary when alternatives are available. The PETA website says that "animals, like humans, have interests that cannot be sacrificed or traded away simply because it might benefit others." (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals 2-3). Essentially, PETA is of the opinion that animals and humans should have identical rights. In their press releases PETA puts out pictures of rabbits with open flesh wounds and dogs with rashes on their skins--all in an attempt .....

The Doctrine Of Fascism
Words: 1422 - Pages: 6.... of Fascism, but reaction to what?
Mussolini forged Fascism in post-World War I in Europe. The national
aspirations of many European peoples nations without states, peoples
arbitrarily assigned to political entities with little regard for custom or
culture had been crushed after World War I. The humiliation imposed by the
victors in the Great War, coupled with the hardship of the economic
Depression, created bitterness and anger. That anger frequently found its
outlet in an ideology that asserted not just the importance of the nation, but
its unquestionable superiority and predestined role in history.
