Capital Punishment: Pro
Number of words: 1323 - Number of pages: 5.... murder, is the fact that
if the killer is dead, he will not be able to kill again.
Most supporters of the death penalty feel that offenders should be punished for
their crimes, and that it does not matter whether it will deter the crime rate.
Supporters of the death penalty are in favour of making examples out of
offenders, and that the threat of death will be enough to deter the crime rate,
but the crime rate is irrelevant.
According to Isaac Ehrlich's study, published on April 16, 1976, eight murders
are deterred for each execution that is carried out in th .....

'96 Elections
Number of words: 485 - Number of pages: 2.... of
debates. There are debates between the candidates and there are some between
the possible vice-presidents. The speakers must be very good at thinking of
something to say quickly and making their point clear to the audience in order

audience the flaws the other candidate might have and to also show them the good
things that you may have to offer them as their president or vice-president.
Dole is the major republican candidate for president. One of Dole's major
plans in his pr .....

Hardships Of Southern Sharecro
Number of words: 1230 - Number of pages: 5.... (4). A factor that contributed to this was their excessive mobility, which inhibited many children from going to school (Corder 27). It is common knowledge that any child who constantly moves around will not be able to attend school on a regular basis, and even if they go to a school when they get a chance they will be so far behind they would have a difficult time catching up. Another factor that impeded on a child’s attendance at school was the fact that they never went to school when there was cotton to be picked (Walker 8). This may not seem like a large .....

A Working Alternative To Capital Punishment
Number of words: 1082 - Number of pages: 4.... such as wartime (Doan, 2).
Currently 34 of the states in the U.S. exercise capital punishment. The most recent to abolish capital punishment was Massachusetts, in 1984, and New York, in 1995, was the most recent to reinstate it, according to the NAACP. During 1977 and 1994, Texas executed the highest number of prisoners, a total of 85. As of 1996 there were 3,122 inmates on death row. These convicts could help with government labor with a hope that they might be free someday. Figures show that, with men, 80% decide in favor of the death penalty, and women the .....

Is Drug Testing The Answer?
Number of words: 1160 - Number of pages: 5.... comes in many forms. It can be a walk
in the park, some quiet time with a loved one, or even reading a good book.
Conversely, coping can come in the form of substance abuse. Substance abuse can
take humans to that alternate reality they seek. Different drugs have different
effects on the mind and body. The reason for the effect is the same no matter
what drug is used. This reason is to escape reality.
Addiction follows this escape from reality. Once addiction comes into
play, it is no longer a matter of escaping. People addicted to drugs, such as
cocaine, .....

Driving Laws In India
Number of words: 609 - Number of pages: 3.... This is the Indian
drivers' mantra.
ARTICLE IV
Use of horn:
Cars (IV, 1, a-c): Short blasts indicate supremacy, i.e. in clearing
dogs, rickshaws and pedestrians from path. Long blasts denote supplication, i.e.
to oncoming truck, "I am going too fast to stop, so unless you slow down we
shall both die". In extreme cases this may be accompanied by flashing of
headlights. Single casual blast means "I have seen someone out of India's 870
million people whom I recognize", "There is a bird in the road (which at this
speed could go through my windscreen)", or "I .....

Reasonable Accommodation In The Work Place Under ADA
Number of words: 1752 - Number of pages: 7.... reasonable accommodation.
This definition poses three main questions: Who is considered disabled?

mental impairment that substantially affects one or more major life activities.
The impairment may not be due to environmental, cultural, or economic
disadvantages. For example a person who cannot read because they have dyslexia
is considered disabled but a person who cannot read because they dropped out .....

Pornography
Number of words: 5241 - Number of pages: 20.... to the
traditional conception of a rights holder's cause of action. This
subsection reads:
Any woman has a claim hereunder as a woman acting
against the subordination of women. Any man, child or
transsexual who alleges injury by pornography in the
way women are injured by it also has a claim.
[emphasis added]
My goal in this paper is to suggest that a slight modification to
this subsection of the ordinance would make it very difficult for liberals
and legal conservatives to object to it. This modi .....
