...The Causes of Divorce In America today, one of many people’s main life goals is to marry the first person they fall in love with, live happily ever after, and skip gleefully away to live the American dream. However, millions of married couples quickly find themselves turning to divorce as an answer, to ending the fairy tale they had once dreamed. Many people would ask “why?” the perfect couple would choose such a negative ending to their once happy marriage. In some cases, many couples have to question their own motives for divorce. Although there are many alternate roots to fixing the simplest problems that may occur in a marriage, for some, simple does not always mean easy. It is certain that the cause of divorce varies from couple to couple, yet lack of communication, money and children, is among the most common causes of divorce. Lack of communication in a marital relationship, is one of the most common causes of divorce, because when two people lack communication, they are unable to solve problems that may occur in the marriage. Many married couples think that the minor problems that occur in their marriage, are insignificant, and are not worth talking about; however, they fail to realize that even the smallest things can cause conflict between the two when they are not able to solve them through communication. Many couples lack communication when it comes to making decisions about shared finances. This can cause financial issues to arise, and arguments to escalade in the...

One other thing is to have every child have parents and a home. Negativity is not only an attitude but can cause long-term damage to the environment. Negativity would have to be gone because it causes a lot of pain and long term damage. I believe this because everything that causes negativity in the world affects a lot of people around us for a very long time. For instance, 9/11 caused great damage for a lot of people the family's...

Many married couples think that the minor problems that occur in their marriage, are insignificant, and are not worth talking about; however, they fail to realize that even the smallest things can cause conflict between the two when they are not able to solve them through communication. The first significant cause of recent rise in the rates of divorce is that women completely change their roles; women become economic independent on their own, and they may make decisions when they feel desperation in the marriage. Divorce is the effect of a marriage that is faced with difficulties that seem overwhelming, an inability to get along, one or both partner's growing apart, substance abuse, a culture that condones divorce, legal ease of getting a divorce, the inexpensiveness of getting a divorce and other factors. As we known, divorce is the termination of a marital union, the canceling of duties and the responsibilities of marriage between married couples. I know several couples that fight a great deal about money and have also gotten a divorce because of financial situations. One of the major reasons that cause divorce is financial issues also known as money. This can cause marital problems to be over looked, triggering a range of feelings to explode in the...

...The causes of divorce These days so many marriages end in divorce, and divorce becomes the norm than ever before. As we known, divorce is the termination of a marital union, the canceling of the legal duties and responsibilities of marriage between married couples. Most people would think carefully before they get married. Most married couples are able to maintain their relationship while others do not, which leads to divorce. Why does the divorce’s rate trend to continually increase lately? Even though each broken marriage is unique, we can still find the common causes for marital despair. There are three main causes of divorce are changing woman’s roles, lacking of communication, and having financial issues. The first significant cause of recent rise in the rates of divorce is that women completely change their roles; women become economic independent on their own, and they may make decisions when they feel desperation in the marriage. In the past, Men had to earn enough money to afford the expense of whole family, whereas woman only do housework. Women had no money which led them to depend on their husband’s money; thus, it was too difficult for most women to separate from their husbands. Although women have thought about divorce for the unfair role in their marriage, they had to surrender their husband and family to raise kids at home. However, these situations have entirely changed. Now, women can work outside to earn money, while men share the household tasks such...

...Jael Lopez Grand Canyon University: HLT- 364 10/11/13 As one studies medical research, they discovers that there are many problems surrounding it. However, one of them can make a tremendous impact, which are, budget cuts. When researching this problem, several questions came arise. How is budget cuts affecting health care administration? Why are there budget cuts? How are budget cuts effecting society? Lastly how was the budget used in the past and if the budget cuts were affected by the actions of those that run research facilities? There are several reasons to why budget is being cut and it is not just one problem that helps explain this. As one goes further into HealthCare research they come to the fact that there are problems that affect this one particular area overall. The first question that arises when inquiring about budget cuts in the health care administration is: Where is the funding they receive going? When there are so many budget cuts and there isn’t enough funding how is this affecting them? As one comes to inquire about budget cuts one has to understand that this affects the health care administration in many ways. As budget cuts arise, problems arise as well. When there is not sufficient money to go around then there are problems as to how much funding does each department receive. As the funding is divided there are shortages that arise. For example, there are shortages in the equipment supply that is needed. A research study indicated that after inquiring...

Nicely discovered the problem around June 1994 he was the one that noticed it in two sets of numbers and did some tests on 486 and Pentium-based computers, Dr. Nicely was certain that the error is caused by the Pentium Processor. Dr. Nicely then contacts Intel Technical Support on October 24, 1994 Intel technical support then duplicates the problem and confirms it, but it was not reported before. Later the Intel person he had contacted admitted that Intel had been aware of the problem since May 1994, when the flaw was discovered by Tom Kraljevic. When Intel first knew about the problem they decided not to tell anyone, thinking that the flaw would hardly affect anyone and that it was just a commonplace for a complex microprocessor to have a few bugs. Then, when it was forced to acknowledge the problem, Intel pushed it away again and dismissed the chances of it causing problems for the average user. In my opinion, Intel was acting very unprofessional when they knew about the problems and did nothing to fix the problem. I think that Intel was just trying to save money with them thinking “maybe if we don’t fix it and just let it hurt a couple of people, the consumer will have to try to fix it themselves and keep buying parts from us”. But instead it was the other way around the people found out about the problem with the help of Dr. Nicely and him telling the people about the problem so they could...

...marriage. Divorce itself is both a cause and effect. There are many causes of divorce. Some of the causes happen more often than others. For instance, the most common causes of divorce are poor communication, financial problems such as lack of money, lack of commitment to marriage, a dramatic change in priorities, infidelity, sexual indiscretion and the ease of getting a divorce. These are some of the most common causes of divorce. The effects of a divorce seem insurmountable when comparing the grief it causes on both sides. Most people describe the cause and effects of a divorce. (Divorce Cause and Effect) (Causes of Divorce) The cause of increasing divorce is lack of communication. Most couples have poor communication. A marriage is on the rocks when the lines of communication fail. A couple can’t have an effective relationship if neither one of them won’t discuss their feelings, cant’ talk about mutual or personal issues, will keep their resentments simmering under wraps, and expect your partner to guess what the whole problem is about. Communication is a very important part of a relationship. This is one of the reason’s pre-martial counseling is encouraged. (Panse) Communication can help in understanding one another. Couples have to talk the problems over with their partners, which produces the divorce. Some couples are often quiet when they have problems with each other. Little problems can become huge problems when they are not discussed in a...

...a chronic, relapsing brain disease that causes compulsive drug seeking and use, despite harmful consequences to the drug addict and those around them. Although it is true that for most people the initial decision to take drugs is voluntary, over time the changes in the brain caused by repeated drug abuse could affect a person's self-control and ability to make sound decisions, and at the same time create an intense impulse to take drugs. However what people don't realize is the effects this can have on not only their own life, but on those around them as well. Addiction affects the individual, physical and mental health. It affects the individual financially and economically. Most importantly, drug addiction affects the people the addict cares about most. According to the gateway foundation, more deaths, illnesses and disabilities stem from substance abuse than from any other preventable health condition. Today, one in four deaths is attributable to illicit drug use. Drugs hijack the “reward” system of the brain. This can cause unusually large amounts of dopamine to flood the system. This flood of dopamine is what causes the “high” associated with drug abuse. The problem with this however, is that when one is sober their emotions and brain interactions do not function normally. This can cause them to have extreme mood swings, and often time’s very angry outbursts or paranoia. Not only does drug abuse affect the brain, it can also cause serious health issues down the line. Drugs...

...are caused by many issues and variables. People can work to earn income and improve their lives through all difficulties in the economic conditions. People also save some of their income for their future needs. Their save money would be affected by inflation and their purchasing power would be diminished. Inflation is mostly a matter of monetary policy which occurs when a government prints money without real asset backup more than the amount that is need for a stable economy. This study examined the effects of implementation of Islamic currency on the prevention of inflation and price instabilities. Economic students of IIUM were randomly given questionnaires about the agreeability of Islamic currency in today’s developed economy and its usefulness to prevent inflation. The survey showed that Islamic currency model (dinar and dirham) would be able to control inflation and instabilities of prices by having 100 percent of gold and silver reserves for every single amount of money circulating in the economy. Moreover, it is emphasized that Islamic governments should implement this model to overcome the problems people are facing by inflation which diminishes their purchasing power of saved money and their uncertainty in future investments.

...help the poor? Where the poverty rate in the world and in America is growing continuously and dangerous? Helping the poor is the duty of every member of society and governments. Several reasons for poverty are education, health, racism and others. Helping the poor should not just by providing them with money, food, clothes and housing. We should look for and solve the main causes of poverty. I am with helping the poor for several reasons, but not the usual ways, because helping the poor by just providing for their needs keep the problem of poverty continuous and increase the percentage of the poor. Also the problem of poverty causes other problems, such as an increased percentage of crimes, decreased percentage of safety, and decreased the economy, and failures to address the problem of poverty exacerbate the problem and create other problems. Those who are opposed to helping the poor or solve the problem of poverty may not realize that this problem may be reflected on them in the future for other problems. If we do not help the poor, crime rates will go up, and this affects the economy, which means an increase in the poverty rate. Education is closely related to the problem of poverty. For the illiterate person or someone who has a little education it is difficult for them to find any kind of job to fulfill the needs of themselves and their family. I do not mean education as just learning in the school, but also education and training for professions and trades that enable...

Solutions for the Emergency briefing of Loom technicians 5. Extensions – Additional situations III. Conclusion I. II. Introduction: Hovertec Corporation is the famous corporation in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland, which has been manufacturing civilian and military helicopters for nearly 50 years. The profit during 1990 before taxation exceeded £16.5 million and the total sales of over £280 million. Most of 6000 people work in three manufacturing plants. However, the latest technology used in these production and assembly processes, is a relatively slow process. It took 3 weeks for a civilian unit and 4 weeks for the larger and more sophisticated military helicopter. The main bottleneck in the process is the long time taken to assemble the helicopter loom and complete the 1200–2000 connections between the power unit and the numerous helicopter systems and services. A team of 24 loom technicians who have from 8 to 15 years experience maintain the production output. The 1991 Corporate Plan concluded that: ‘Because of the constricting squeeze on defense projects on the finances of civilian helicopter operators, which appears likely to continue until the world recession ends and general demands picks up, future activity in the three factories will be at a lower level...

...Tittle Inflationary cause and remedies in Latin American countries. Research Objective Aimed at trying to find out the precursors of inflation and its feasible cures. The paper examines the critical relationship between the cause of a problem and its possible solution. It emphasizes on the views of two theories– the monetarist and the structuralist theories. Overall, this paper seeks to answer the following question: what are the main determinants of inflation rates and the stabilization policies in Latin American countries according to those theories? Theoretical Background The two rivalling theories concerning causes of inflation include the monetarist view and the structuralist view. Monetarists consider inflation as a problem caused by the surplus of money supply. They [the problem and the cause] are positively correlated – when one goes up, the other follows. This is otherwise known as the Quantity Theory of Money which is the foundation of the monetarist view. Sometimes, an excess in money supply will result in the public seeking to reduce the excess by increasing spending. This in turn will cause an increase in prices, if they are free to change. If prices are fixed, this will result in either higher supply to meet higher demand or in shortages of supply which will cause overall price level to increase. Basically, the monetarist explanation proposes that an excess supply of money causes inflation. Long run changes in the demand for money are essentially a...

...Air pollution is a widespread problem that can be hard to contain. Air pollution can cause problems in both humans and animals. Not only that, air pollution can cause changes in climate which can affect our food sources. Air pollution is harmful to the environment and bad for people’s health. This problem needs to be contained. Many of the things that pollute the air are used by humans daily and at http://environment.nationalgeographic.com/environment/global-warming/pollution-overview/ it says that car, planes, buses, and many other modes of travel release carbon dioxide into the air which is one of the main components of global warming. Most of the activities that use fossil fuels emit carbon dioxide into the air. Cutting back on emissions of fossil fuels can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide on other greenhouse gases that cause global warming. A big problem with air pollution is that it can cause asthma attacks. “Asthma is a serious chronic lung disease that appears to be on the rise in, the United States and many other countries around the world. The prevalence of asthma in the U.S. has increased by more than 75% since 1980.” (http://www.arb.ca.gov/research/asthma/asthma.htm). Air pollution hasn’t been linked to causing asthma but has been linked to asthma attacks. Acid rain also is a problem created by air pollution. “Acid rain (or acid deposition, as it's called in technical circles) is produced by the burning of fossil fuels. It is formed when emissions of sulfur dioxide...
