Women In Combat
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 642.... with.
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 battleships,
aircraft carriers, and marine support groups dug into the desert. From their
experience in the Persian Gulf, military women have earned the right to be
treated as equals with men and not as protected individuals.
In spite of their record as able combat personnel, .....

Justice
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 607.... line, is
completely unfair. (Unless, of course, you're the person budging.) A line
is formed as a way to make everyone wait the same. The whole system is
ruined if someone budges. Budging is rarely caught, but when it is, the
punishment is severe. The person who budged usually has to go to the end
of the line. The only problem with this is that people aren't caught often
enough.

school. This kind of deceit is a no-win situation. The assignment was
given for a reason, and it defeats the purpose .....

Teens And Sex

them. This would cut down on unprotected sexual intercourse and prevent the
pregnancies, sexually transmitted diseases, and H.I.V. infection. If a student
was at a party and decided, on the spur of the moment, to engage in sexual
intercourse, then it is more likely that they have a condom if schools
distributed them. This sounds good in theory, but will it really work? If
schools distribute condoms, shouldn't they also teach the students how to use
them and teach them a little about sex (sex education in schools, another
controversial topic)?

Life With Bureaucracies
Number of pages: 9 | Number of words: 2363.... level of control, and are based on specific rules of procedure. Weber recognized that bureaucracies existed in preindustrial societies such as ancient Egypt, ancient China, and in the Roman and Byzantine empires. It was not until recently, however, with the emergence of large societies based on complex technologies, that bureaucracies come to permeate people’s daily lives. The reason seems simple. Spontaneous, casual, and personal relationships, such as those found in primary groups, are inefficient when it comes to coordinating the activities of large groups of people w .....

Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 392.... share, to sit down together as a family and enjoy a meal. Now dinner time is full of interruptions; the sounds of shouting and laughter from the Drew Carry show or a honk for the passing cars at the Sonic. No longer is there assurance in knowing that every member of your family will be present at the designation eating time.
Refrigerators where mothers and wives once posted nightly menus describing delicious meals are now covered with marker boards and post it notes informing where each person has gone, all which seem a waste because there is no one there.

Nuclear Power: Cons

systems pertinent to survival."
Thus, the environmentalists believe that nuclear energy should not be
used for various reasons. First of all, the waste product, i.e. plutonium,
is extremely radioactive, which may cause the people who are working or
living in or around the area of storage or use, to acquire leukemia and
other cancers. They also show how billions of dollars are spent yearly on
safety devices for a single reactor, and this still doesn't ensure the
impossibility of a "melt down." Two examples were then given of Chernobyl
and Thre .....
