McDaniel comments: “For the female child, to be assessed as ‘pretty’ or ‘beautiful’ is the highest accolade, one that usually makes her parents proud…To be pretty is to be approved of, liked and rewarded.” She also mentions that in “infancy, females are judged by standards of ‘cuteness’ and ‘prettiness’ and this shifts with age into standards of ‘beauty’ and ‘glamour.” Parents of newborn babies tend to emphasise appearance more in girls than in boys. .....

Analysis Of International Law
Words: 1663 - Pages: 7.... Statute of the
Permanent court of International Justice and forms an integral part of
the present Charter.
The commands of international law must be those that the
states impose upon themselves, as states must give consent to the
commands that they will follow. It is a direct expression of raison
d'etat, the "interests of the state", and aims to serve the state, as
well as protect the state by giving its rights and duties. This is
done through treaties and other consensual engagements which are
legally binding.
The case-law of the ICJ is an important aspect of the UN's
contribution to the development of international law. It's judg .....

The New Initiatives Of George W. Bush

federal role in education is not to serve the system. It is to serve the
children.” (The True Goal of Education, 1), that is precisely what Bush’s
optimism demands, an arrangement powerful enough to postulate proven
achievement in return for appropriation. A few illustrations of the
appropriations Bush is proposing are: Establishing a $500 million incentive
fund to reward states for improving student performance (making federal
funds to states and local districts more flexible in return for greater
accountability and improved student achievement), and supporting expansive
education savings accounts fo .....

Independence Of Judiciary In Australia
Words: 885 - Pages: 4.... dividing it.
a) Why is the independence of the judiciary an important feature of Australia's
system of justice?
The judiciary is the government branch that is concerned with the administration
of justice. The judiciary is absolutely separate from the executive and the
legislature, so it can check the concentration of government power. The
independence of the judiciary is crucial of a democratic community because when
judges are presiding over cases, there must be no interference and intimidation
from the external forces. The independence issues touches upon the conflict of
authority and freedom. If the doctrine of separation of powers did .....

Diplomatic Immunity

law. For the longest time this privilege produced little or no incidents.
However, this unique position of freedom that diplomats, their family, and staff
have been graced with has not been so ideal. Recently the occurrences of abuse
for personal or national gain has grown out of proportion. What once protected
the diplomat and his staff from parking tickets and some differing social laws,
now grants them protection under the law to commit crimes such as drug
trafficking, kidnapping, rape, and murder. Even though serious crimes are rare
and punishable to various extents i .....

HOPE Foundation
Words: 621 - Pages: 3.... a grant to help cover the cost of tuition, book, and mandatory fees at any public Georgia college or university and a $3,000 dollar scholarship to any private college (Educational Uses of Lottery Proceeds 1). Also, they will provide full tuition, books, and fees to any technical institute in the state of Georgia. That sounds like a whole lot of incentive for young adults to make a 'B' average in school. I just don't understand why North Carolina does not have the same incentive for our children. To keep the college student a good student, you must also keep a 'B' average in college to keep your scholarship. Georgia has given more than 1 b .....

With new research, scientists think that the disease was first contracted through a certain type of green monkey in Africa, then somehow mutated into a virus that a human could get. AIDS is a complicated illness that may involve several phases. It is caused by a virus that can be passed from person to person. This virus is called HIV, or Human Immuno-deficiency Virus. In order for HIV to become full-blown AIDS, your T-cell count (number of a special type of white-blood cells that fight off diseases) has to drop below 200, or you have to get one of the symptoms of an AIDS-induced infection .....

For one, no body wants to be a burden. If a person has had a car accident which paralyses him from neck and down, and is doomed to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, he knows that he will be 100% dependant on the ones that care for him, his lived ones, forever. It can also be mentioned that the life quality of a terminally ill patient, gets reduced a lot. Never being able to walk again, never being able to talk to your children again, never being able to go shopping, swimming .....

A World Of Intoxification
Words: 1003 - Pages: 4.... Secondly, if everyone else who is important, i.e. fraternities and sororities, does it, then to be important, you must drink. Finally, without parent instilling morals and good judgment into their children, the students do not think that it is wrong to participate in these activities. All in all, the biggest problem on college campuses is the consumption of alcohol and drugs. If a person was never exposed to the heat of a flame their whole life, and then was thrown into a family barbeque, where they asked this person to cook, how well would they do? They would probably put too much lighter fluid in the grill. Or, they would light th .....
