.... in a way enabled us to create a 24-hour lifestyle. We have pushed the limits of the modern world further -- ATMs, high-speed modems, smart bombs and bullet trains. However, the limitations of human existence, like sleep, may still provide the stumbling block for infinite realization. That is, without chemical aid. In many ways, capitalism fuels the idea. Our society is based upon the mass consumption of these substances. Cultural ideals, while seemingly benevolent as "Have a Coke and a smile" have sold the link to chemical substances like caffeine and nicotine to "the good li .....

.... and subdivisions. Still, the fact remains that when a newly-elected president assumes office, he indeed has no ‘presidential’ experience. Granted, he may be a Washington insider (like Bob Dole), who has spent a great deal of his life in Congress working with (or against) the president on various bills, campaigns, etc. Nevertheless, he has still not had the experience that even approximates that of an incumbent president. Primarily this is because the presidents task is so multifaceted. (Neustadt 103) In one of his capacities, as head of state, the president receives repr .....

.... some type of physical or mental harm occurs within that person's body, thus, the occurrence of changes in health is the result of one's free choice. Any of the above stages can be easily applied into mother-child scenario. If a mother becomes, at some point, totally drug addicted, she can no longer control her actions, psychological stage of mind, etc. She can no longer be in a position of making the right choices and decisions, and of course, she will not be in a position to recognize and face the reality. The only choice such mother could make would be dicta .....

.... crimes. The most famous people to be executed are Socrates and Jesus. Only in England, during the reigns of King Canute (1016-1035) and William the Conqueror (1066-1087) was the death penalty not used, although the results of interrogation and torture were often fatal (Kronenwetter 12). Later, Britain reinstated the death penalty and brought it to its American colonies. Although the death was widely accepted throughout the early United States, not everyone approved of it. In the late-eighteen century, opposition to the death penalty gathered enough strength to lead to impo .....

.... owners. They were, on the whole, by most historical accounts, a very civil, obedient and law abiding people. They were better citizens than their educated, well-fed owners. Why? Some may say fear. Fear of Massah? Or maybe, the slave owners? Perhaps to a degree. Fear certainly is a motivator. I do not think the average American criminal is much afraid of the law or society, today. Society is not their master. So I concede that fear will work, to a point. But only to a point and it really wasn't fear that made the slaves into decent people. I contend that it was more th .....

.... this belief; however, “[a]ll the evidence taken together makes it hard to be confident that capital punishment deters more than long prison terms do.”(Cavanagh 4) Going ever farther, Bryan Stevenson, the executive director of the Montgomery based Equal Justice Initiative, has stated that “…people are increasingly realizing that the more we resort to killing as a legitimate response to our frustration and anger with violence, the more violent our society becomes…We could execute all three thousand people on death row, and most people would not feel any safer tomorrow.”(F .....

If we sit here and deny the fact that the problem is there then we are just setting ourselves up for disaster. II.)
