.... of America's own interests, but for something used to strike down and inhibit the free exercise of religion itself. It is quite clear and has certainly been made quite clear by each of the city councils present here today, that there was no true emphasis on sectarian religion in either city. The designs of each emblem and logo have certain historical pretenses that explain the origins of each logo in question. Granted, the Zion city logo had certain religious intent, but as anyone can see by the testimony given by the mayor and city council members, the only reason it [the seals and logos] remained unchanged all these ye .....

.... his decisions account for a large share of cases that are taken into the courts, Athe character, quality and efficiency of the whole system is shaped in great measure by the manner in which he exercises his broad discretionary powers@ (Britanica). Like other lawyers, the prosecutor is subject to disciplinary actions for conduct that is prohibited by Acodes and cannons@ (Matrix). These Acodes and cannons@ are intended to assist and advise the prosecutor. The majority of the prosecutor=s work load consists of cases which a complaint was either files by a citizen or by following an arrest made by the police. But there .....

.... on affirmative action (1), the main one being, that these attacks are devoid of proper historical context and shrouded in white male hegemony and privilege. Then, I will discuss the moral and ethical issues raised by continuing to function within a system that systematically disadvantages historically marginalized groups. With that as a backdrop, I will make a positive case for continuing affirmative action programs and discuss the practical concerns that continuing such programs may raise. Perhaps the biggest complaint that one hears about affirmative action policies aimed at helping Black Americans is that they violate the 14t .....

.... decency and affordability. Firstly, decency is subjective according to different cultures. I think that the Canadian government is setting a very high value on living environment, and such a high standard may cause more difficulties in solving the problem. Secondly, Canadian government has continuously reduced its standard in defining affordability. It was consider affordable if housing cost no more than 20% of your income. Nevertheless, the standard has been reduced to no more than 40% until recently. Such dramatic change of the figure has made the goal become ambiguous. Practically, the government has tried many methods in deal .....

.... is further obscured by the Fourteenth Amendment which states, “No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges of citizens of the United States.” As a result, many questions begin to arise which seek to determine the true right of the accused to the assistance of counsel. Should legal counsel be provided by the government if the accused lacks the funds to assemble a counsel for his defense? Or, on the other hand, does this amendment set the responsibility of assembling a defensive counsel on the accused even if he or she lacks the funds to do so? Also, do the states have the right to make their own .....

.... into control during the Great Depression when the Republican Policy was ineffective in relieving the economic problems. The Democrats dominated for the most part through the 1960s. However, the Republicans have won five of the last seven presidental elections. The current President is a Democrat but it is not clear if the Democratic Party will be able to continue to dominate. There have been 900 other "third" parties throughout history but the Republican and Democratic Parties have remained the leaders of the two party systems since 1854. Realignment of the parties have occurred about every 30 years. The first four were in 18 .....

.... degree of unintentional support towards this global dilemma, but when compiled on paper one must question how mankind can, with conscience, commit these acts which shame us as human beings. Animals possess the same kinds of feelings and emotions as human beings, and without anesthesia, they are subjected to the pain as well. Mankind often fails to give animals the respect and rights they deserve, they are treated as lifeless, unfeeling scientific specimens and items that we may manipulate at our own convenience and for vanity’s sake. The Facts of Animal Tests - Laboratory research involving animals is cruel and merciless treatm .....

.... pink palace and riding her pink corvette with her molded man Ken. Barbie had taught me that every member of society was living this very same life. I have to question if the weight of responsibility for this beauty myth falls only on Barbie's tiny plastic shoulders? But of course not! To be fair, Barbie was not the only culprit, I can remember getting dolls whose main purpose was to remove or apply make-up, style hair, or spend fake money with a fake credit cards, as if that's all it meant to be a woman! Barbie had now redefined what is was like to be a feminine in our society. Although today I can see more of an ethnic variety w .....

.... Act The Brady Act was approved by Congress in November of 1993 and was then signed into law by President Clinton later in the month. The act was originally named for anti gun lobbyist Sarah Brady, and not for former press secretary Jim Brady. It was through Jim Brady's support and the media coverage that linked his name to the act. The act requires that there be a waiting period of five state government business days at the time an individual applies to purchase a handgun from a federal firearm license. During the five day wait, the local sheriff or police chief must "make a reasonable effort" to see if the purchaser is prohi .....

.... because a police officer was shot and the public was behind her. It was a case of public revenge where the mind- set was "We're going to get the guy that did this horrible crime. It doesn't matter that he was defending his home." This type of public revenge could include the execution of Shively. No matter what verdict would have been handed-down, someone, somewhere would have been unsatisfied. If Shively were sentenced to be executed, then his family and friends would have had to fight for justice until the day he died. As the verdict of "not guilty" arrived, Paterson's family, many police officers, and friends of the fam .....
