Abortion - Right To Choose
... side is wrong.
Many people believe abortion is a moral issue, but it is also a constitutional issue. It is a woman's right to choose what she does with her body, and it should not be altered or influenced by anyone else. This right is guaranteed by the ninth amendment, which contains the right to privacy. The ninth amendment states:
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
This right guarantees the right to women, if they so choose, to have an abortion, up to the end of the first trimester. Regardless of the fact of morals, a woman has the right to privacy and choice to ab ...

Breast Implants
... or miscellaneous types of accidents.
The early history and use of implants showed no ill effects of the use
of paraffin or silicone. Because of this newly developed surgical process and
relatively little use of FDA guidelines there was no comprehensive testing done
to ensure the utmost safety of a silicone recipient.
By this time the millions of women throughout the world who already had
Dow's silicone prosthesis implanted into their breasts had no idea of the
dramatic health risks. Because of these potential health risks, women should
avoid the use of breast implants.
In 1976, Congress gave the FDA authority to regulate breast
implants. By t ...

Concepts Of Lifetime Fitness
... detects the drop by means of the blood. To compensate, the brain
sends chemical and electrical impulses to the muscles. These impulses tell the
muscles to begin to contract and relax at very high intervals. This is commonly
known as shivering. The production of Adenosine Triphosphate or ATP in the
mitochondria of the muscles produces heat. If the body temperature does not
rise immediately after this, then a second function begins. The brain will
signal the blood vessels near the skin to constrict or narrow in diameter. This
occurs so the heat deep in the muscles is conserved. Since the vessels are now
smaller in diameter, less blood is needed to fill them. ...

AIDS
... fatal weakening of the immune system which has given AIDS its name
(Acquired Immuno-Deficiency Syndrome)," write the Segals, "has been traced back
to a destruction or a functional failure of the T4-lymphocytes, also called
'helper cells`, which play a regulatory role in the production of antibodies in
the immune system." In the course of the illness, the number of functional T4-
cells is reduced greatly so that new anti-bodies cannot be produced and the
defenceless patient remains exposed to a range of infections that under other
circumstances would have been harmless. Most AIDS patients die from
opportunistic infections rather than from the AIDS virus itself. The ...

... and generalized weakness.
Swelling of the legs, caused by the gathering of lymph, a yellowish body fluid,
under the skin may also occur. Skin will show telangiectasis, inflated intra-
epidermal (intra - within, epidermal - outer layer) spaces filled with blood.
Places (vessel wall) where there is no telangiectasis are filled with deposits
of glycolipids. These deposits are also found in the heart, muscles, renal
tubules and glomeruli, central nervous system, spleen, liver, bone marrow, lymph
nodes and cornea. Retarded growth, delayed puberty and ocular abnormalities are
also common symptoms. These symptoms are mostly fond in males because they
display f ...

What's Wrong With Our Food And Drugs?
... I don't know about you but I think something has
got to be done to keep our food clean and edible.
The other half of this story is the ridiculous cures that some people
are receiving. I have heard of alcohlics who are trying to breaktheir habits
being given a bottle of medicine that contains 80 % alcohol. Something there
doesn't sound right. People are being given the same treatment for epilepsy and
all sorts of other disorders. How is alcohol going to help someone that has
epilepsy? The only thing these nonsense treatments are doing is making the
physical ailments that these people have worse. If you were terribly sick do do
you think alcohol would cure yo ...

Suicide In Las Vega
... cities in the United States, nighttime
is the appropriate time "to enter."
Exiting is another matter. According to a recent cover story in Time, Las Vegas
has the highest per-capita suicide rate in the country. This coincides with its
enormous expansion, yet the most talked-about suicides -- those of tourists
leaping from hotel balconies after losing everything they had -- are dangerous
myths for a city poised to become America's newest economic icon. In fact,
tourists taking their own lives surrounded by the glamour of the Strip comprise
only a small percentage of the fatalities. The bulk are those who moved here for
jobs, who live just beyond the lights. Eight ti ...

Abortion In America And Elsewhere
... may give insight into possible reasons or causes and effects from various laws and sanctions. South Africa presently is in a state of political reform and struggles with social identity. However, because it exists in this state, issues such as this are highly controversial. Clearly from looking at the huge majority of South Africans, abortion is a morality issue, but is addressed from a political overview. Despite the overwhelming 80% majority of South Africans who do not support the practice of committing an abortion it has recently become legalized and protected by the law. The action of legalizing abortion in South Africa provides insight into the values and ...

Abortion: Life Or Death Who Chooses?
... this. Those of us who
would seek to protect the human who is still to small to cry aloud for it's own
protection, have been accused of having a 19th Century approach to life in the
last third of the 20th Century. But who in reality is using arguments of a
bygone Century? It is an incontrovertible fact of biological science - Make no
Mistake - that from the moment of conception, a new human life has been created.
Only those who allow their emotional passion to overide their knowledge,
can deny it: only those who are irrational or ignorant of science, doubt that
when a human sperm fertilizes a human ovum a new human being is created. A new
human being who carries ...

Anorexia
... sparked by medicall studies and extensive media coverage, has
led many poeple to seek help. Nevertheless, some people with eating
disorders refuse to admit that they have a problem and do not get treatment.
Family and friends can help recognize the problem and encourage the person
to seek treatment.
Anorexia nervosa is a disorder where people intentionally starve themselves.
It usually starts around the time of puberty and involves extreme weight
loss. Sometimes they must be hospitalized to prevent starvation because
