Police Corruption
... Corruption within police departments falls into 2 basic categories, which are external corruption and internal corruption. In this report I will concentrate only on external corruption because it has been the larger center of attention recently. I have decided to include the fairly recent accounts of corruption from a few major cities, mainly New York, because that is where I have lived for the past 22 years. I compiled my information from numerous articles written in the New York Times over the last 5 years. My definitional information and background data came from various books cited that have been written on the issue of . Those books helped me create a b ...

Industrilization
... the economic changes brought about by industrial development physically transformed Europe. Greater levels of production were achieved, and more wealth was created than ever before. Industrialization simultaneously created unprecedented advancement as well as unprecedented hardships and social problems.
The editor of the source book Western Civilization cited many works from chapter 22 “Industrialization and Social Change” to further the explanation of how economic and social aspects were dealt with. The works cited raise many questions as to how economic and social aspects affected the Industrial Revolution. Why did industrialization occur first in England ...

The Boss
... is extremely difficult to start and once started, there
are many obstacles to face. The road to a successful business is a very
treacherous one that leaves many people heartbroken or hopeless. The boss
is an example of someone who has traveled this treacherous road
successfully, and therefore has a thriving business.
The boss is shown to be intelligent through his success and also by
the way he contemplates a situation before making a decision or an
assumption. For example, when the boss is confronted with the fly, he
doesn't merely think of the fly as insignificant. On the contrary, the boss
examines the fly's actions, questions them, and experiments to fin ...

Say No To Premarital Affairs
... remain so until teenagers decide to
respect themselves and society stops using sex as a medium to sell, attract and distort reality.
Sex is a powerful force that can destroy if not used properly. Like atomic power, sex is the most powerful creative force given to man. When atomic power is used correctly it can create boundless energy; when it is used in the wrong way it destroys life. Sex is very much the same kind of powerful force. It is a gift from God to give us the greatest pleasure, to help in creating a deep companionship with one's marriage partner and for procreation of the next generation. But if you play with this powerful force outside the bounds of ...

Terrorism 2
... from the threat of
force, or the use, of covert or open war. Who is or is not a terrorist?
The suicide bomber, the rebel guerrilla, the liberation front, the armed
forces of the state?
Historical Background
Terrorism has had a long, and tainted, history. Aristotle recognized it,
even if it had no name, at the time. He wrote, "The first aim and end of
tyrants is to break the spirit of their subjects." What we know as
terrorism can be traced back to the Russian Nihilists and Anarchists of
the 19th century, who gave a name to what would otherwise be considered
"Random acts of violence" that were performed to advance their
revolutionary cause. They el ...

Teaching Practice
... a foundation for government. Government is instituted to serve man's wants and needs, but we are frequently unaware of our true wants and needs. We fail to recognise what is in our best interests or on other occasion we are the victim of our own passions and drives. There is a need for a power outside of us, a power that we do not consent to that will restrain our passions.
3. "The science of government being therefore so practical in itself, and intended for such practical purposes, a matter which requires experience, and more experience than any [one] person can gain in whole life, however intelligently and observing he may be, it is with infinite caution that a ...

Proposing A Solution
... do not learn at the same rate. This is true; there shouldn’t be a standard that is untouchable for most students. There should be a standard so that when a student graduates he or she is prepared to be a productive part of society. Besides just having a standard there must be some way to check that it is being followed.
There are standards in place now that try and make sure that a student is learning what he or she needs to graduate. These are in the forms of test. The problem with these tests is that they are taken every few years. By this time a student may be so far behind and lack the skills necessary that it would take a miracle to have him or ...

Reforestation
... could help slow the atmospheric
accumulation of carbon dioxide by replacing old-growth forests with
faster-growing young trees". A new study of young and old forests says
how this is in fact not true. Loggers have said that new trees pull the
carbon dioxide better than old trees, and this may seem true, but it is
not. There is one point being overlooked from all of this. The older,
larger trees can store much, much more carbon dioxide than a new tree
could. By cutting and burning these magnificent seasoned trees, the CO2
is being released back into the atmosphere. These releases of carbon
dioxide add up in our surroundings, only to intensify Global Warmi ...

Gatsby Essay For Rocco's Fat Ass.
... writers such as Hemingway, E.E. Cummings, and T.S. Elliot, but Fitzgerald was on of the best, (American Literature 6 ). In the novel The Great Gatsby he uses all of the techniques of modernist writing to make the reader go back in time to the 1920’s and experience what life and people were like.
In the novel The Great Gatsby, Fitzgerald uses uncertainty, disjointedness, and disillusionment for the content of his story. The reason why he is a master of modernist writing is because he not only makes his characters uncertain, disjointed, and disillusioned, but he also makes the reader feel that was.
