...Abortion Crystal Estell EN1320 Assignment 2.2 Abortion is one of the most controversial moral issues of our age. Although pro-choice and pro-life arguments centering on the morality of the issue are already well stated, the other more practical arguments on this subject have been underreported. I. What is an abortion? A. Why would a person decide to abort? 1. Is it right to be pro-life or pro-choice and then why. 2. Who should make this decision? B. Should the government be involved or should this be only the decision of one person? 1. Should the law protect the ones that cannot speak up for him or herself? 2. Or should the law be kept out completely and leave it up to the parents, or maybe just to the mother. II. Abortion is legal in the US and many other countries. A. Therefore, by creating a new abortion law we might put additional risk on women/mothers willing to abort somewhere else. 1. So does it make sense that abortion is not restricted by any law? 2. However, abortion not being restricted by law is being abused by many as they use it as contraception. B. So would it be dangerous if abortion were forbidden in the US? 1. How many abortions are done in the US in a year, month, and day? 2. How many are done worldwide? III. America, the land of freedom, therefore should there be the free choice even for abortion? A. What are the risks of having an abortion? 1. What are the possible complications of...

...Hayden Harvey MWF 9:00 AM Mrs. Edwards In my opinion, Anzaldua says "Wild tongues can't be tamed, they can only be cut out" for the purpose of expressing how she was treated. It was either, say it right, or get out, which seems to be a little harsh. Another possible meaning to this quote could be that if you are not afraid to speak up about what you believe in, you could be a very influential and threatening person, therefore the opposing party would take action to silence you. This is ultimately what many influential people fear the most, another person or group speaking out against them and challenging them. It makes me think of Suzanne Collin's Hunger Games trilogy, Katniss starts off as a little insignificant girl and blossoms into a star and the start of a revolution because she is not afraid to speak out and go against the system to pursue what she believes in. My goal in life is to achieve having a tongue that can't be tamed. Making a difference and seeing how many people you can positively affect in the process. That quote definitely makes you think about standing up for what you believe in. Defining some and not all of the Spanish phrases in this essay is an effective strategy to keep the essays spanish base. Anzaldua was limited by the things she could say and she decided to limit some of the parts that English speaking people could understand as a sort of payback. Why not serve up what she got dished out? I may not even be right about this, but this is what...

...Exploratory Paper: As Technology grows, there are more and more virtual schools popping up around the country. With this happening there are a few questions that you must ask yourselves. Is the education that you get from an online school as good or equal to the traditional school system? Can all students succeed in the online environment? Will students learn as much from an online course as they would in a face-to-face classroom setting? Are the degree’s that you may receive from these schools as good or treated as equal to an actual physically attended college degree? Some students feel different about this subject. Taking online classes makes more sense to them in their lifestyle or family situation. The students who take online classes may not be able to attend a traditional college, they may have concerning issues that will not allow this, whether it be having to raise a child and not being able to find adequate child care, or maybe just the cost of the actual school. There are students that do a mixture of both online and traditional classes. They take the classes that they can at a traditional college then take classes online as well. The mostly do this all at the same college that they attend. They may have some of the same issues in life and college but still find time to make it to a regular class room setting. This way they can choose and see what classes they can sign up for and take the rest online. So when comparing the degree’s that you get from...

...Over several years of living in the United States, there has always been a problem with illegal immigrants. The schools seem to be more over crowded because of all the extra immigrant students. Illegal immigrants reap some of the benefits that United States citizens have without having to do any of the work. Because of people, coming here and taking advantage of the excellent opportunities found within the United States. One attempt is the recent bill known as The Dream Act. Being a US citizen is a privilege, not a right and this action is trying to change that. The dream act should not be passed because of the burden it places on school systems, the strain it has on the economy, and they will end up enjoying the rights legal citizens are given. Illegal immigrants do pay taxes inside the United States indirectly but being as how they do not pay income and personal property taxes legally. The social security administration says that around 75% of illegal immigrants are on a payroll and paid by a check like legal citizens. But these immigrants get onto that payroll by using stolen social security numbers of legal citizens or the deceased. In the end, this will cause citizens to have to pay more. Did you know that as American taxpayers we pay over $113 million a year for illegal immigrants? The dream act should not be a law that should pass for the reasons following. Claim 1: Taxes The extra money that we will need for these children of the illegal immigrants to...

...Introduction to Speech M/W 1:30 Listening Activity Paper 4/27/2015 First allow me to say that I was truly dreading this assignment. I thought to myself, “How am I going to devote 12 hours of any given day to this?” I am just so busy. However, I learned a lot in a short period of time about myself. I realize I was wrong about myself. I truly thought that I was, at all times, a kind and gracious listener. God knows I have preached to my children enough about how important it is to really listen to people. Now I wonder if they take me seriously when I say that. I did not realize how focused I get about our structure and routine. Being a single mom with two honor roll students who are very involved requires structure. I did not realize that when I am in that zone I am literally tuning them out and dismissing what they are expressing to me. This must make them feel pretty unimportant. It also begs the question, will they feel justified tuning me out. I am not aggravated when I am focused on getting things done but I fear I come across that way in my direct and impersonal responses and lack of listening. I also did not realize that I was prioritizing listening to one child over the other according to the time I have with each. I have literally subconsciously been scheduling time to listen to each of them. That means that if the Sienna feels it is important to tell me something during Aidan’s primary time in the car, I may or may not dismiss her. How awful...

The sacred books hold the knowledge of that religion the arts and how to conduct oneself as a human. The Buddhist religion believes that humans should be perfect so there is no need for law. The Buddhist religion is amongst one of the only religions who do not have a scared God they praise Buddhist praise humans in general.

...The Gun Debacle, How to Reduce Gun Violence Without Losing Your Rights Gregory Guyer ITT Technical Institute. "Laws that forbid the carrying of arms ... only disarm those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed one." Are Thomas JeffersonThomas JeffersonThomas Jefferson thoughts about gun control during his era who he quoted from an article written by Cesare Bonesana, Marchese Beccaria “essay on crimes and punishments”. (1764) Such remarks from a prominent member of our founding fathers suggest that not only has this debate been going on for a long time but also how important to Americans it is. The second amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America says, “A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a Free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” This must have been thought important by our forefathers to have listed this one second, yet we are on the verge of losing yet another one of our rights as Americans in the name of safety. Will we really be safer, or is it simply a play of political control? According to the National Institute of Justice (2013), there are fewer gun related incidents nationwide than there were in the early 1990’s. Not only do we see fewer actual gun related...

...writing. In fact, the three universities that I have attended in the past have all required me to use the APA style of writing. As I recall my high school years, the APA style of writing also seemed to be a favorite amongst my high school teachers. They all required that term papers be written in APA style as well. This type of writing actually does not differ much from the ones included in the text reading. The text mentioned the APA style of writing several times. In my opinion, it appears to be the most popular style of writing, especially amongst college students. Based on the results of the quizzes, my grammar skills were actually a little better than average. I actually had expected to do better, but I guess my grammar skills are not as good as I thought they were. In any event I feel very confident when it comes to spelling, as I have always been a great speller. Even in grade school, I was a good speller. I learned at a very young age to challenge myself when it comes to spelling. Challenging my-self in that area really paid off as I became older, as I’ve never had a problem with spelling. However, I feel that I need more help with run on sentences and with thought patterns. Though I proof read my paper several times, it’s hard for me to see that I have several run on sentences until after I get my grade back. In general, I feel that my writing is just mediocre. However, I also believe that when it comes to writing, I am my own worst critic. Reason being, I am never...

...How to Write a Good Academic Paper? That is a question which most students ask and most of them are new to academic writing. Academic writing if taken as a whole, then it would help you figure its significance and what is more important is, it would help you understand the purpose of it. Any good academic writer’s quality is his/her mind is loaded with creative set of ideas that help him navigate through the whole topic of academic paper. Ideas lead you to somewhere and only a few good students are gifted by nature and if you are not then you can also build up a good rhythm of academic writing. Secondly, you should also have a good sense of your audience; you should know what element of your academic writing would entice them and also create some space for your write-up for reading in their schedule. You then research for resources and data that would be of great use to enlighten your readers. Knowing what you audience wants, should be in your priority because readers enjoy what they seek in your writing. Usually what they look out for is something that could either bring them a smile or get them to think over the subject. Having creative ideas doesn’t guarantee a good and well-researched academic writing. You need to able to figure out ways of putting your research in a proper format so that readers don’t feel deviated from the focal point of your write-up. You should use your sources with proper attentiveness else it would completely ruin your efforts from top to bottom....

...Joe Polce English 015 Mrs. Wickman How To Roll Your Own Cigarette Is anyone in your life a cigarette smoker? Do you often notice that they are always complaining about their ever-rising price? According to the U.S Census Bureau, out of the 6.7 billion people in the world, 2 billion are smokers of cigarettes or some other form of tobacco. Almost 75% of these 2 billion spend between $1000 - $1500 yearly on their favorite packs and cartons that they just cannot resist. We know its a habit, right? Its also an expensive habit. I am going to show you a quick and easy way to not only cut the cost of cigarettes in half, but also save you hundred of dollars. A select few smokers of the modern world have been fortunate enough to find the solution to the climbing prices of cigarettes. This solution is actually very simple. Why don’t we, instead of spending the $6 plus on an already produced pack of Marlboro Lights, make and produce our own pack of very similar cigarettes? Herein lies the solution; roll your own cigarettes. Most people shy away from such an idea claiming that they would never know where to start, or have no idea where they would buy the equipment, but on contrary the first steps to this new lifestyle are very easy, and the tools needed are readily available. The benefits of rolling your own cigarettes are numerous. First off, its inexpensive.
