.... only known as patricians, or landowning people of the upper class. Then other people were elected the commoners, or plebeians could be elected into the Roman Senate. This form lasted much, much longer the actual time it lasted was from 509 BC to 27 BC, just barely under 500 years of control. During the rain of these forms of government law was a large issue and much later in 527 AD the Justinian Code came about, which was just a collection of the laws in ancient Rome. Back in these ancient times there were three very intelligent philosophers known as Pericles, Plato, and Aristotle. All of these men were teachers and gave some valid contributions to the id .....

.... After a month my sister called me on the telephone to let me know she had gotten an . I was so hurt and angry that I didn’t know how to respond. All I could ask her was “Why?” I finally got an answer from her, but it was not an adequate reason to eliminate the life of an innocent child. Her answer did not justify such a hasty decision as far as I was concerned. My sister has always been very independent so she let me know, in no uncertain terms, that it was her decision and her body. I will never understand how she could have taken a life without carefully thinking over the consequences of her actions. Getting to know my niece or nephew would never become .....

.... agreed with in Federalist 10 but vehemently oppose in Federalist 45. This, along with federal opposed mandates and categorical grants given in the past is taking the power out of the hands of the states and putting them in the hands of the federal government, something that the James Madison of Federalist 45 would have a strong opinion against. Madison’s comparison to the federal government as a type of feudal system is true to an extent in todays government as the local sovereigns can speak more for their smaller population whereas the larger governmental bodies cant speak as well for the people as the smaller ones were able to do. Therefore, the federal .....

.... people free. The majority of the population are Indians, and much of the struggles arise out of the ashes of the past. Spain conquered Guatemala in 1524, which was the start of the oppression of the native people of Guatemala. Since this time the native people have been ruled by the Spanish speaking minority, the Ladinos, many of which are descended from the Spanish colonists. Beginning in 1954, when Guatemala's elected government was overthrown by the army, the military began a brutal war against the Indian people. This type of torture and oppression continued, and during the 1970's the repression was especially harsh; during this time more and more Indi .....

.... news today is with reference to the chaotic condition of our planet, or something else that society as a whole sees as detrimental or damaging. But the news on television is not the only type of media taking the criticism of society. Other forms of mass media, specifically movies and television programs containing pornography and violence have been heavily criticized. The underlining concept to be debated here is that society is negatively influenced, specifically, by these images of pornography and the result is increased violence against women. This assumption, and it is indeed only an assumption, is completely fallacious, however, as no concrete and comple .....

.... failed to nationalize “Health Security”. It was this fear of centralized government and Clinton’s failure to reform Health Care that makes a more centralized social policy unlikely in the near future. There has been a necessity in the twentieth century (due in part to the Great Depression and World War II) for big government. The legislation behind Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal called for the involvement of the federal government to create a highly bureaucratic social policy. The combination of Roosevelt’s political assertiveness and society’s willingness to allow such centralization that made big government possible. The laissez-faire mentality of the twe .....

.... the cosmetic industry is not necessary because they have many other ways to find out if it harms the human race. The testing that goes on is harmful to the animals and can cause serious side effects. The cosmetic companies hold down bunnies in vices and spray the cosmetics into their eyes to see if it causes them redness, stinging, or even blindness. They also have baboons strapped down with their heads in vices to do certain tests on them. Animals are also used by pharmaceutical companies to produce drugs and health supplements. They estimate that 17 to 22 million animals are used each year for medical research, and these estimates do not include rats, mice .....

.... “Hidden Curriculum teaches girls to value silence and compliance.” (pg.35) The hidden curriculum is a theory that boys often get more attention than girls in the classroom, and that even if it is negative attention, the girls learn that they are not as important, and they eventually give up hope, and stop speaking out in class. “Educators reward assertiveness and aggression over docility, the very behavior that is prized in girls becomes and obstacle to their success.”(p.36) This means that while girls are acting the way a teacher would like them to, the boys that are more aggressive get the attention, and the girls lose their self-esteem. “Charles L. Richma .....
