Drugs Debate
... drugs and mind constricting drugs. It might also be useful to consider a category of drugs which are neither mind expanding or mind constricting, though, it would be difficult to find any recreational drugs which would fit in this category. The division of categories should be based on how the drug affects intellectual stimulation. The drugs in the mind expanding category should broaden the scope of perception and knowledge for the user. The drug should educate the user and "expand" the user's mind. The drugs in the mind constricting category should deter the user from learning, and even if one did claim to gain some sort of knowledge from the high, the knowledge, i ...

Cloning Is Ethically And Moral
... in severe psychological effects in the cloned child, and that the cloning of non-human species subjects them to unethical or moral treatment for human needs. The possible physical damage that could be done if human cloning became a reality is obvious when one looks at the sheer loss of life that occurred before the birth of Dolly. Less than ten percent of the initial transfers survive to be healthy creatures. There were 277 trial implants of nuclei. Nineteen of those 277 were deemed healthy while the others were discarded. Five of those nineteen survived, but four of them died within ten days of birth of sever abnormalities. Dolly was the only one to survive (Fact: ...

Smoke Free Restaurants
... to eliminate this problem is to create all restaurants
as non-smoking. A second idea is to require all restaurants to install air purifier/cleaners. Non-
smoking restaurants, enclosed smoking sections and required air purifier/cleaners offer different
ways to eliminate dining in a smokey restaurant.
Creating restaurants as non-smoking would avoid the problem of nicotine odors ruining
many meals. The Onion, located in downtown Spokane, requires that all smoking be done in the
bar area. The bar is separated from the main restaurant by a gate. I ate lunch at this restaurant,
and while I was there smoke from the bar drifted to my table and spoiled my lunc ...

Muslim Girls
... 52-4). The busiest part of a Muslim woman’s day was in the morning when she did the cooking and the cleaning. A women’s daily routine, which includes social calls to her neighbors, know as “coffee visits”, revolves around both her children and husband’s schedule. A woman was expected to be home whenever her husband was home (Bringa 87-8). The daily interaction between neighboring households occurs mainly through the women’s “coffee visits.” During the “coffee visits” the women are expected to uphold Muslim community values so as not to damage the reputation of their household (Bringa 91). Tone Bringa wrote: “as a wife a woman’s behavior was judged in relation to he ...

Affirmative Action: Opportunities Of Character, Not Color
... There are numerous arguments that defend the use of affirmative
action and advocate its effect on college campuses. Supporters of
affirmative action believe that minorities are still disadvantaged and that
it is "absolutely necessary to level the playing field" (Wilkins 334).
They believe that minorities will never be given a fair chance at college
unless diversity is forced upon the campus. Proponents also argue that
affirmative action is the best solution to past discrimination and color-
blindness, and that without affirmative action the gaps between our races
will never close.
Although these arguments may have positive aspects such as creating
a mu ...

To What Extent Is Canada’s Election System/Process Democratic?
... to some of the candidates who run individually because they don’t have any support from big parties.
· Therefore, the fewer parties get invited, the fewer issues the people can get.
· Each candidate has to pay a $1000 deposit, if he/she has over 15 per cent of the votes, he/she can get the deposit back. If he/she doesn’t have 15 per cent of the votes, his/her $1000 deposit is gone.
· Boardcasters play an important role in election. The Boardcasters have the power to determine which political parties to get shut out or not.
· A party who has 42 per cent of the votes only has the second most seats in the legislature. Meanwhile, a party who has 39 per cent o ...

Should Racist Speech Enjoy Pro
... Central Michigan University, for example, had instituted a discriminatory harassment policy,
only to have it shot down by the Supreme Court in 1995 on grounds that the policy "necessarily requires [the]
university to assess racial or ethnic content of speech." Since Central Michigan University is a State school, the First
Amendment prohibits it from enacting regulations that would limit an individual's right to free speech unless the
regulations, according to a 1986 ruling by the Supreme Court, are "narrowly and precisely designed."
As you can imagine, precisely tailoring any statute in order to prohibit racist speech is nearly impossible - and as
many other speake ...

Aircraft Law: Liability
... in methods of diplomacy." (1)
The principles of air law have been evolving at a rapid pace since the
beginning of the Twenty-first Century, however, they also remain inadequate to
meet the needs of contemporary society. Concern for this immense growth and the
accompanying implications produced the impetus to devise a means to ensure
orderly and appropriate development. Thus, "The general policy of the world
community in regard to emerging issues of air law demands the maintenance and
promotion of a balance between technological advance in aviation and the
preservation of a wholesome environment by providing adequate policies and
prescriptions." (2)

1984: A Political Statement Against Totalitarianism
... contributor to anticommunist literature
around the World War II period. Orwell lived in England during World War
II, a time when the totalitarianism state, Nazi Germany, was at war with
England and destroyed the city of London. " I know that building' said
Winston finally. Its a ruin now. It's in the middle of the street
outside the Palace of Justice.' That's right. Outside the Law Courts. It
was bombed in-oh many years ago'" (Orwell 83). This reflects Orwell's own
life experiences as a citizen in war torn England and how he uses this in
1984. George Orwell is famous for two major novels which attack
totalitarianism. The first is Animal Farm a satire de ...

Business And Government Agencies
... that those who work for him would at least try and guess
his desire for the outcome, at worst he would directly or indirectly tell them.
Probably at this point no procedural rules have been breached. This is of course
only if the director has not tried to influence the Administrative Law Judge in
which case many legal issues could be raised, more on that in question three.
Back to the ethics involved, it would be very important if the Director were to
try and be ethical about the issue he/she should give the appearance of ethical
procedure. One way this could be done is that a recommendation could be made
rulemaking be in a formal format. In addition she/he should b ...
