.... happen because agents will do anything for money. They know that if their prospect makes it big, they will get a cut of the earnings. Marcus Camby is one of the many athletes to accept gifts from agents even though it is a complete violation of NCAA rules. Sports Illustrated staff writer Phil Taylor wrote an article entitled “Tangled Web” which is a story about Marcus Camby and his violation with the NCAA. “…John Loensbury, who estimated that he, gave Camby more than $40,000 in cash and gifts between December 1994 and March 1996” (67). Agents are always ready for a good fight; they do not give up easily when .....

.... known as a high consists of changes in the users feelings and thoughts. Such changes are caused mainly by THC. The effects of a marijuana high vary from person to person and from one time to another in the same individual. In most cases, the high consists of a dreamy, relaxed state in which users seem more aware of their senses and feel that time is moving slowly. Sometimes, however, marijuana produces a feeling of panic and dread. The different reactions result partly from the concentration of THC in the marijuana. Other factors, such as the setting in which marijuana is used and the users expectations, personality, and mo .....

.... medical use in treatment in the United States. He added that it was "one of the safest therapeutically active substances known to man." This request was overruled not by medical authority, but by the DEA itself. This shows the little amount of government knowledge on the subject matter. Presently, the main chemical in marijuana which is THC is being used or in some states being proposed for medical purposes. Marinol, which is another chemical in marijuana, is used to counteract nausea, which accompanies most patients going through the chemotherapy process. It is also used for patients who suffer from glaucoma. Patient .....

.... fear of controversy. The last reason is the Fedral government would benifit two ways, First the fedral revenues would increase, because marijuana ciggaretes would be taxed at the point of sale. The companies that make the ciggaretes would also pay income taxes. Secondly there would be a reduse in the amount spent on law enforcement efforts to apprehend and procecute users and sellers of marijuana. III. There are reasons why marijuana shouldn't be legal. One reason is because there was one study that shows their were about 55% of all fatal accidents in the U.S. were related to alcohol intoxication. Marijuana may prevent s .....

.... 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 genes in its cells that make that human being uniquely different from any and other human being and yet, undeniably a member, as we all are, of the great human family. All the fetus needs to grow into a babe, a child, an old man, is time, nutrition and a suitable environment. It is determined at that very moment of conception whether the baby will be a boy or a g .....

.... nature of these crimes (Steele). These crimes, even today, are still viewed as violent and should be punished with the highest degree of discipline available to achieve justice. After much public pressure, was suspended on a trial run in 1967. This proved to be ineffective, because even though the law stipulated that crime such as treason or the murders of law enforcement agents were still to be subjected to the death penalty. The federal cabinet continued to commute those criminals from death to life sentences, hence the law was not being followed and justice was not being served. This soon was followed with 's abolishment .....

.... where's off and a person will sleep for days, there is a larger fatigue and one will be so damn depressed. I stopped talking to a friend because he was so addicted to this horrible drug called Speed. One thing I noticed is he was a totally different person when he was using speed. Whenever he was high on the drug he was a great guy with all this incredible energy, nothing would ever possibly make him upset. Though when the drug wore off he was so grouchy that no one could stand a single bit of being around him. Every little thing you did when he was coming down on Speed annoyed him and it made me wonder if I was wrong at ti .....

.... (such as TCI and Jones Inter-cable) are permitted to offer local telephone service. The "baby Bells" or Regional Bell Operating Companies (RBOC) (also called Local Exchange Carriers (LEC) such as BellSouth and Ameritech were permitted to offer long distance telephone services and cable TV services. The RBOC were also permitted to manufacture their own equipment and to offer online information services and electronic publishing (but under tight controls until 2000). Incidentally, electric utility companies, another traditionally highly regulated industry, were permitted to enter the local telephone market. I believe that t .....

.... the great amounts of money spent on enforcement every year. Drug dealers and users are one step ahead of the enforcement process. If one drug lord is caught, another one will show up somewhere else. We cannot win. In 1987, 10 billion dollars were spent alone just on enforcing drug laws. Drugs accounted for about 40 percent of all felony indictments in the New York City courts in 1989. This figure is quadruple what it was in 1985. One can only imagine what this figure would be like today. Forty percent of the people in federal prison are drug law violators. Too much money is wasted on a cause that there seems to be no en .....

.... and Latin-American nations, have abolished the death penalty since 1900 - including Canada, which did so in 1976. In the early 1990's, the United States was the only Western industrialized nation where executions still took place. History Capital punishment was common among all ancient civilizations. It was used for a variety of offenses that today aren't crimes at all, like stealing the keys to someone's wine cellar. There were many different methods of executions, and they all had a barbaric quality. Some of the more vicious methods were stoning, impaling, boiling in oil, burned alive, and being stretched on the ra .....
