...Running Head: ADULTERY AND WHY IT MATTERS ENGL126-Sound Writing Skills Instructor: x Final Author May 09, 2011 The gimmick filled reality television and high-speed internet has spun us for a loop and left people so dizzy, they have forgotten which way is up. In an article from Time, Caitlin Flanagan explains why marriage matters and Olivia Stren from Flare discusses why women are optimistic about being given the opportunity to have an affair. As if it is now fashionable to cheat on your wife or husband, adultery has become a socially accepted “norm” as a result of changing demographics and its prevalent nature. This moral regression will leave our society scarred if left unchecked. Adultery cannot be dissected and understood without first understanding the institution of marriage and what it stands for. Let us forgo the typical, contract idea, “in sickness and in health” and the whole “love” thing and settle with the belief, for this argument, that marriages are the beginning of a new generation. Marriage is intended to raise the children, to protect, and instill in that new generation the teachings we want them to take into the future to make our world the best it can be (Flanagan, 2009). With that said, what is marriage as it stands today? If children are watching the moral fabric of society, one of the oldest traditions in the history of our people, melt away and be replaced with selfishness and depression? We are creating the ultimate “Me-Generation” who...

...The decade of 80’s has been a turning point for women in Pakistan. The imposition of Islamisation created unrest amongst women as they were forced to stay back in their houses because, apparently, working with men was against the laws of Islam. At that time, there was a common idea circulating amongst them that they should be given equal opportunities like men. This makes us think if they truly have the rights of being heard before being accused. A number of events of women harassment took place during the Zia regime, under the name of Islamisation. One of whom is, “… More than 70 percent of women in police custody experience physical or sexual abuse at the hands of their jailers…” (Thomas “Police abuse of Women in Pakistan”) Although men think they restrict their women from going out to work as they can’t trust the world, but then the difference between oppression and protection must be understood. This point of view fitted exactly in a men oriented society where women were looked upon as property. The martial law’s proceedings created an atmosphere in the country where individuals took law in their hands and beleaguered women. (Alvi 1328). The women, at that time, were right to stand up against who thought that the presence of a woman in a society is a sign of them. Zia-ul-Haq remained in power for around 11 years, 1977-1988. During this time he imposed ‘Shariah’ (Islamisation) in the country which, apparently, was to implement Islam in true sense. According to Shariah Laws...

...You should tie on a Rapala Husky Jerk and cast up onto the weedflat. Then use a sweep-sweep-pause retrieve; that should trigger a good fish. I am going to pick up my Quantum TS604F spinning rod with the Energy E7-4 strung with eight pound test Stren Magnathin and throw a one-eighth ounce jig head with a four inch Salty Ringworm. This is one of the best post spawn presentations there is! It has both attracting and triggering qualities. It is also a quiet bait. After seeing 10,000 spinnerbaits in the last two weeks we will need to show them lures they have not seen in a while. The beauty of a jig worm setup is you can fish in the weeds with a finesse type bait and not be hung in the weeds a lot. When you feel the jig worm is stuck on a weed you can snap your wrist and it will pop off the weeds 99 percent of the time. This method will also trigger bites. The bass think their meal is getting away when it pops off the weeds and will strike. Just like that one! Looks like about a two pounder...

Федерация съставена от 10 провинции и 3 територии, които са групирани в региони.Тя е парламентарна монархия в лична уния с Великобритания. Английският и френският са официални езици на федерално ниво. Западна Канада се състои от Британска Колумбия и трите прерийни провинции (Алберта, Съскечуан и Манитоба). В Централна Канада влизат Квебек и Онтарио. Атлантическа Канада се състои от трите морски провинции (Ню Брунсуик, о-в Принц Едуард и Нова Скотия) и Нюфаундленд и Лабрадор. За Източна Канада се считат Централна и Атлантическа Канада взети заедно. Три територии (Юкон, Северозападните територии и Нунавут) съставляват Северна Канада. Провинциите си служат с повече автономия от териториите, като те са отговорни за повечето социални програми на страната като здравеопазване, образование, социални помощи и заедно реализират повече приходи отколкото самата държава, едно почти уникално явление в света. Ползвайки своите права за оползотворяване на средствата, федералното правителство може да инициира национална политика в провинциалните зони, какъвто е например Канадският Здравен Акт. Това...

...Lisa Mojsin, M.A. Director, Accurate English, Inc. Los Angeles, CA Acknowledgments This book is dedicated to my accent reduction students who came to the United States from all parts of the globe. Their drive to excel, passion for learning, amazing work ethic, and belief in the American dream have inspired me to write this book.

Live the life you have imagined.” Thanks to all of the supportive and extremely professional people at Barron’s: Dimitry Popow, my editor; Wayne Barr for seeking me out to write this book; and Veronica Douglas for her support. I am enormously grateful to Lou Savage, “The Voice.” His is the beautiful male voice on the recordings. He was also responsible for all of the expert audio engineering and audio editing. Thank you, Lou, for being such a perfectionist with the sound and insisting on fixing the audio “mistakes” I couldn’t hear anyway.
