Such facts often decide who wins or loses." He characterizes that juries have .....

.... was more than just a product of drugs and music, but a result of the change that was sweeping the entire western world. These changes were brought about by various events in both the fifties and the sixties, such as: the end of the "Golden Years" of the fifties, the changing economical state from the fifties to the sixties, the Black Panther Party, women moving into the work force, the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and John F. Kennedy Jr., the war in Vietnam, the Kent State protest, and finally the Woodstock festival.

.... successor, named the force the Bureau of Investigation on March 16, 1909. At that time, the title Chief Examiner was changed to Director of the Bureau of Investigation. When the Bureau was established, there were few federal crimes. The Bureau of Investigation primarily investigated violations of laws involving national banking, bankruptcy frauds, antitrust crime, naturalization, and neutrality violation. With the April 1917 entry of the United States into World War I (1914-1918), the Bureau was given the responsibility of investigating espionage, sabotage acts, sedition (resistance against lawful authority), and draft violations. .....

.... from the Greek words for 'good' and 'death', and is commonly called mercy killing. Voluntary euthanasia may occur when incurably ill persons ask their physician, friend or relative, to put them to death. The patients or their relatives may ask a doctor to withhold treatment and let them die. Many critics of the medical profession contend that too often doctors play god on operating tables and in recovery rooms. They argue that no doctor should be allowed to decide who lives and who dies.

.... to purchase food, and a small amount of dollars to aid with either rent or utilities. Because of this income from welfare, crime is reduced. This is because there is now more income so the poor no longer have the need to go out and commit crimes to attain that income.

Instead of enrolling in welfare themselves, in the future these people will make contributions to the economy and will be tax paying citizens. On the contrary, welfare is currently a great government expense that tax .....

.... chose to ignore. This year I had the great opportunity to volunteer my services to the Democratic party. I was excited to work for the Democrats because it was my first ever experience involved with the election. For 17 years I stood as a common bystander to this great American tradition. Volunteering my hours made me feel like I was part of something important. Mostly my work consisted of random polling. I would call people up between the hours of 7 and 9 P.M. and ask them a few questions about the election. With every call I hoped for the best, but it seemed that I was calling people at the time they were most irritable. Most w .....

There has been instances where one country’s pollution problems in turn pollute neibouring countries such as Mercury used in manufacturing process eventually leaking into river systems (This happened between Canada and the United States). Another example is acid rain caused by burning fossil fuels without capturing or burning off the chemicals that cause acid rain, for example, UK’s industrial plants affecting the forests of Germany and Scandinavia. Chemical pollution has no boundaries, dumping chemical in the North Sea by the northern European countries not only destroys the food chain in that area, but, with tidal and ocean .....

.... and "unconstitutional," it was the only effective way to get anything done (Simmons 142). In the beginning, Lincoln's secretary of state, William H. Seward, clearly considered himself the President's superior, and blandly offered to assume the executive responsibility. He entered the cabinet with the thought of becoming the power behind the Presidential chair and openly opposed Lincoln's control of the Union. This made Lincoln's position as Chief of State exceedingly difficult and hindered his communication and control of the military. As time passed, however, Seward recognized Lincoln's capabilities and gave him complete loyalty (Simmo .....

.... rights. It then became the responsibility of the states of the United Nations to protect those rights. This is where the United States is lacking. The U.S. is one of the founding nations of the United Nations and one of the most influential, yet it has failed to take adequate state responsibility for human rights. Before tates can be discussed, the concept of state responsibility for human and civil rights must be clearly defined. The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines state as "a politically organized body of people usually occupying a definite territory," and responsibility as "moral, legal, or mental accountability." These definitions o .....

George McGovern was the opponent that Nixon really wanted because he figured he could beat him pretty easy. Having both Houses of Congress being controlled by the opposite party, Nixon became very fearful of being a one-term President. John Edgar Hoover was the leader of the F.B.I. at the time of the affair. Hoover was a legend in his own time and was very feared by many. Nixon said that he had a very close relationship with Hoover and that he supported him a lot. Hoover was said .....
