...One side of the argument is Pro-Choice, this is the side that is for abortion. This side believes each woman should have the choice to do what they want with their body, this thought process is what spurned the Roe vs. Wade case. Pro-Choice focuses strictly on the women who is pregnant. The idea that it is their body is a valid point, the idea that not all pregnancies are planned or even wanted is another point that the Pro-Choice movement will argue to defend their side of this abortion debate. Pro-Choice feels that the women’s civil rights are being violated by not having the choice to decide for themselves. Pro-Life side, one that feels that every life is a miracle and deserves the chance to live. This side stays on the course that all lives matter and deserve the chance to live. Pro-Life argues that taking the life of another is not accepted in any society, they argue the side effects of abortions, and they argue that adoption is an alternative to abortion as...

...Since Roe v. Wade, abortion has headlined evening news, front-paged Sunday’s papers, and discussed around the Thanksgiving dinner table. The Supreme Court has voted on a number of cases, altering the course of abortion in favor of pro-life and pro-choice ideology. Abortion has also become a staple to Presidential candidate and party platforms to win elections. Anytime there is a new bill introduced in the legislator, it is always controversial and under the microscope across various media outlets. Under Trump’s administration, abortion will remain controversial to all branches of government, to both sides of the issue, and favor a pro-life theology. For the pro-choice idea of abortion, the next four years under the Trump administration is going to be very difficult....

...Debate Summary Amanda Missick, Karla Castillo, Kimberly Archuleta, and Kimberly Arzate BCOM 275 April 2, 2015 John Kungis Debate Summary Throughout the debate we chose to discuss the Chris Kyle murder case where Eddie Routh was convicted for the brutal murder of Chris Kyle, former Navy Seal, and his comrade Chad Littlefield. As the debate summary we decided to go with the pro side of the argument, which includes; Eddie Routh's history of mental disorders, how he fled the scene, and the sentence given to him for his murder charge. Not only did this topic make us have different opinions amongst each other, but made us open our minds to different views. Even though as a team we had our disagreements and different believes on the topic, we came together for the final decision of the debate. We believed that the murder trial of Chris Kyle was justly sentenced. Even though Eddie was facing a low point in his life we believe his alcohol abuse, violent behavior and strange conduct were contributing factors that led to his mental state. Living in a city with one of the biggest military bases in the country, we all in different ways are related to military personnel. Some of us personally know veterans with PTSD. It was discussed during our meetings that it normally takes more than a shooting range to trigger someone to relive those experiences that only veterans have experienced. We are devastated that this incident turned out the way it did, ending the life of not only the...

... Abortion has been a controversial matter in our society and this is from many years ago. In the United States, it is legal to abort a baby up until the day of birth. An abortion is the ending of pregnancy before birth, which leads to killing the fetus. Many people believe that abortion is a crime. Although some might see abortion is a personal right while others regret that it is legal, other people believe that no one except God has the right to take someone’s life. Supporters of abortion, however, do not consider an unborn child a person who must be protected .With an issue like abortion, there is a difficulty in knowing if it is right or wrong. Abortion has been around for thousands of years. Abortion was legalized in the United States (The U.S. Supreme Court Case of Roe vs. Wade in 1973) the rule was that babies are not legal persons and they do not carry rights or protection under our government. A woman has a right to make decisions regarding her body. Every woman has the right to control her own body. A fetus is part of a woman's body because it is dependent on her for survival in the womb. The fetus feeds on the food intake of the mother during the nine months. An unborn baby is the property of the mother and she can kill the baby or the fetus by aborting it...

...Has anyone noticed the hoopla about Trump wanting to defund Planned Parenthood? Whether he does or doesn't is of little consequense to them...financially that is. Saddly, Planned Parenthood gets more than enough financial support from corporations, organizations and private citizens to do what they do. That being said, a few of the many noted personalities that could have been aborted by their mothers but were not are pretty vocal about about when asked. Justin Beeber told Rolling Stone "I really don't believe in abortion. I think [an embryo] is a human. It's like killing a baby".

...There is an essential need for Planned Parenthood in the United States. It is commonly said the government should eliminate funding for this organization, but there are many health benefits which makes it vital. Thousands of Planned Parenthood centers provide health care services for men, women, and teenagers are scattered around the US. The centers provide low-income services that improves the health and well-being of Americans. These services provided by Planned Parenthood include alternatives to pregnancies, services for men's reproductive health, STD screenings or treatment. If funding were to end, millions of Americans would be out of options. When most people think of Planned Parenthood they think, abortions. However, that is not always the case. According to plannedparenthood.org, 80% of all services done by the centers are to prevent unintended pregnancies and only 3% of services are abortions. There are even services that are in place to help desperate couples to get pregnant. If the government were to stop the funding this organization, there would be millions of unintended pregnancies and unwanted babies each year. Planned Parenthood offers alternatives to pregnancies including adoptions. Abortions are available for any women who are having high risks pregnancies in which their lives are put into danger. While the majority of clients treated by Planned Parenthood are women, a great percentage of their clients are men. In fact the number of...

...When having an abortion, various things could go wrong and cause psychological damage to the mother. Support: People who are pro-choice support this because they think about the consequences it could result in if a mother had a child without wanting one. The reason for saying so is because some people just are not fit to be parents. They cannot provide for the child’s needs which include housing, food, and most importantly, love. Caring for a child requires a lot of responsibility and not everyone can handle the pressure of taking care of something that is actually living. Yes, some might argue that there are different options such as putting them in a foster home. There have been many stories of those children growing up feeling as if they are not good enough. In addition, they develop trust issues and constantly try to prove themselves worthy to be loved by their...

...Pros More coverage. Coverage will expand to cover nearly 95 percent of legal U.S. residents. With a recent study showing that patients without health insurance have a shorter life span, coupled with the number of uninsured approaching 50 million in 2010, that is perhaps the biggest reason to cheer. A more competitive insurance industry. Increased regulation will stop insurance companies from rigging prices–that recent 40% insurance premium increase in California comes to mind. Competition with newly formed public entities will ideally make the entire industry more competitive. Also, insurance companies are now required to post their balance sheets, executive compensation, and administrative costs online. Insurance companies will have to accept everyone. No more pre-existing condition exclusions. They can’t place limits on coverage anymore, either. Cheaper prescriptions for seniors. It’s reform. We need reform. We’re in a situation where healthcare is even becoming unaffordable to employers, leaving employees with higher out-of-pocket expenses even if they’re ensured. Healthcare costs have jettisoned innumerable people from the middle class. People get sick and die because insurers won’t take them. This isn’t functional. Any kind of reform helps. Cons Cuts in Medicare. The elderly on Medicare will see their benefits changed dramatically. The biggest item being used to pay for the new program is more than $500 billion in cuts to the program at a time when 72...

...Dressing with confidence is more than wearing the latest fashion trend, it’s about feeling good about what you’re wearing, looking poised and feeling self-assured in all situations. Would you believe that something as simple as how you dress could affect your attitude and self-confidence? The truth is, how people dress is related in some way to how they feel. They feel first and dress later. Just think of a time when you didn’t feel well, did you want to pull out all the stops and dress smart? Not likely. You probably pulled on whatever was closest to you and dressed the way you felt – not that well. If we change the way we dress the way we feel will change. When we are dressed well and look good we automatically feel better. When we feel good we are more likely to feel good inside, have more energy and treat others better. You can boost your attitude, self-confidence and feel good about what you’re wearing if you: 1. Knowing the occasion 2. Know your audience 3. Know your personal style 4.

...interviewed for the Oral History Project, canvassed door-to-door to during the last six months of the ERA campaign to gather support for the ERA movement. They campaigned for pro-ERA legislators and ran some of their own members for the Oklahoma House of Representatives. The activists knew that the had to elect legislators whom they could trust in order to get the amendment passed. In addition to their campaigning, Oklahoma feminists also focused on educating the public about the ERA (Ball 39-40). Ladies Against Women was a street performance group who spoke out against the lack of movement for the Equal Rights Amendment in Oklahoma. The group formed in response to the backlash against the ERA movement in the 1980s. Charlotte Bailey was recruited by Penny Williams to work for the ERA committee in Tulsa. Bailey worked alongside her partner, Rhoda Baker, in public relations, contacting the media to broadcast the committee’s announcements. Debbie Blasiar, who was a graduate student at the University Oklahoma when she became involved with the ERA movement, was stimulated to join the movement when she saw the animosity towards the movement. A community organizer for the National Organization for Women, she traveled across the state to recruit and train people for the organization. Marvin York was a former president pro tempore of the Oklahoma Senate. He served on the Senate from 1977 from 1987. Although the Oklahoma House of Representatives had already voted against the amendment, Senator...

...Advantages When properly applied to large production systems, Scientific Management could greatly increase productivity. For instance, at Bethlehem Iron, Taylor increased production over 350% and reduced workers by 70% by increasing the shovel size. He promoted rationalization to create prospering organizations. Taylor believed that his principles resulted in a win-win situation for workers and managers and overcame this conflict-driven relationship. Taylor spoke of '.... an emphasis on harmony, not the discord of competition'. He regarded the interests of workers and manager as mutually dependent and that improving organizational efficiency led to wage increases. Taylor provided a justification for management by being the first to describe management as a profession and providing practical tools for managers to better control their organizations. He broke the power of craftsmanship and handed it to managers as guardians of organizations. Taylor's methodology was the first to use statistical control to analyze work and provided a basis for time motion studies, an essential tool in job design efforts. He paved the way for the development of Ford's T-Ford assembly line in the 1920s. Taylor laid the foundation for separating the "staff" and "line" functions required to run large organizations. His intent was to solve the issue of conflicting instructions by setting up specialized departments responsible for work study, personnel, maintenance and quality control. His ideas were...

...Our recommendations of two wireless technologies are WLAN and Wi-fi. With WLAN it would service as a platform, which adds mobility to business solutions. What the WLAN does that would be beneficial to our business is that the WLAN would be integrated within intermountain wired network, it would also support a large range of devices and applications and would also offer centralized network management services. WIFI would also be a great asset due to its mobility. Wi-Fi is ideal due to not having any cables, which is basically wired LAN. The wifi wireless technology would provide an Internet connection giving users access to a small geographical perimeter giving about 100 feet access. This type of service would allow us to communicate wirelessly, mobile devices such As laptops and desktops. A Wireless local area network or a WLAN is the use of high frequency radio waves along with the use of an internet access point device allowing two or more devices to get reception and internet access without being wired to anything. The advantage of this is that the user can keep a connection while moving around the office because it is wireless. It is much easier to incorporate additional devices to the WLAN since there is no wires attached, however, the downfall is that it is not always the most secure or reliable method as. Wifi is a wireless networking technology that uses radio waves to grant access to the internet on multiple devices at a high speed level. The advantages of having...
