... was imposed in 1789. Without question, this was a time of intense debate between the Anti-Federalists and the Federalists. Scores of papers were composed from both sides attesting to the fact that proposed ratification should either take place or should not, depending upon which group one supported. As a collective work, each side cited significant points that clearly illustrated their agendas. The Federalists, however, seem to have struck a chord more influential in the minds of the citizens. This not only because their attempts to rally a political consensus on their behalf seemed to have been a step ahead as well as more organized, but possibly more s ...

... The Censorship of music in the United Stated is documented as far back as 1954, when "Michigan congresswoman Ruth Thompson introduces a bill in the House that would ban mailing of any pornographic recording, punishable by five years imprisonment and a $ 5,000 fine" (http://ericnuzum.com/banned/fifties.html). Even Elvis Aaron Presley, ‘The King of rock-n-roll’ was once thought of as obscene. In 1957, when he appeared on the Ed Sullivan show for the third time, the cameramen were told to only film him from the waist up. "Elvis’s dancing was considered lewd" (http://ericnuzum.com/banned/fifties.html). In 1964, "Indiana Governor Matthew Welsh asks the State ...

... said "Women have made a major contribution to this [war] effort. We could not have won without them." Leaders in the field agreed. The Gulf War had the largest deployment of women in the armed forces in history. These women encountered the same risks as the men they served with. Twenty one females lost their lives (Holm, Women in Combat: The New Reality, pg. 67-68). In the Persian Gulf, there were no exact positions and all areas were equally vulnerable, so the idea of safe havens for women was not really applicable. By many armed forces policies, females are banned from combat jobs and units, but in the Persian Gulf War females were assigned to battl ...

... continued to grow. Today, she remains a powerful inspiration to leaders in both the civil rights and women's movements. Eleanor shattered the ceremonial mold in which the role of the First Lady had traditionally been fashioned, and reshaped it around her own skills and her deep commitment to social reform. She gave a voice to people who did not have access to power. She was the first woman to speak in front of a national convention, to write a syndicated column, to earn money as a lecturer, to be a radio commentator and to hold regular press conferences. The path to this unique position of power had not been easy. The only daughter of an alcoholic father and a beaut ...

... independent, the different degrees of freedom granted to the different colonies by the Crown in the view that the Declaration itself was signed by all 13 colonies. By 1776, Britain’s control was as Perry suggests a « light touch and with little or no control ». The colonies all had a different degree of independence so that some were more or less inclined to declare independence in 1776. Connecticut and Rhode Island, the charter colonies, enjoyed considerable independence. There was an annual election for a governor and key officials including judges in Rhode Island so that there was a minimum of interference from Britain, this situation can be described ...

... does not need to separate from Canada to maintain its culture since Canada has always greatly encouraged it. Voting YES to the referendum will cause problems in many relationships between peolpe who live in Quebec and those in the rest of Canada. Some of these problems are unemployment and jobs. The residents of Quebec will no longer be able to work in Canada just as Canadians will no longer be allowed to work in Quebec. This will cause a rise in unemployment because many people will be forced to quit thier jobs. The border between Canada and Quebec will impose even more obstacels. Travel will become stessfull because passports will be needed and duty taxe ...

... late 1960’s early 1970’s. As feminism became more popular the feelings that men owned their women began to subside. But this change in society did not so much to change the occurrence and violence of violence in the home. So what exactly is domestic violence? “ Domestic Violence is usually defined as physical, emotional, sexual and other abuse by someone (usually but not always a man) of a person (usually not always a woman) with whom they have or have had some form of intimate relationship such as marriage, in order to maintain power and control over that person. It may include threats to kill or harm the woman and/or her children or other family members” (Barron 1 ...

... and the Caribbean, and 2 percent in Europe and Central Asia. In 1994 and 1995 was the leading cause of death among Americans ages 25-44 years old. It was also the leading cause of death for men in the same age group and the third leading cause of death in women 25-44. Adult males are the leading sex to contract . They account for over 80 percent of all cases in the U.S. Adult women make up 15 percent and children make up the other 1- percent of the cases. (Encarta 99) People have been lead to believe so many fictional stories about the ways of contracting and HIV; it’s hard to know what to believe. The truth is, the main way of getting this disease is unprot ...

... in the last federal election in 1993, won 54 seats in that province, and claimed the title of Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition over the Reform Party, who garnered only 52 seats. Because the Bloc ran candidates only in Quebec, it would be difficult to think of them being a national political party, even though they hold a significant number of seats in the national legislature. This paper will examine the significant early history of Canada's four main national political parties, and then will analyse their current state, referring to recent major political victories/disasters, and the comparison of major economic policy standpoints, which will ultimately lead ...

... use material or external influence to achieve this type of manipulation. The movie "Erin Brockovich" immensely demonstrates this characteristic. Julia Roberts portrays a poor, single mother who uses her cleavage in a few situations to get what she wants. Another negative characteristic I feel about being a male would not being able to buy and wear female clothing. I wanted to make sure that I took into consideration what is negative about the entire gender role itself from a male's perspective. So, I got onto the Internet and joined a transsexuals chat channel. I felt this would give me a great new point of view about being a male. One valid issue that I feel societ ...
