...Afternoon, you see a young lady walk up a flight of stairs to unlock a door, she drops the key and it falls down the stairs where she has to go back down and retrieve it. Without this key she cannot enter her house, but we see later that a man has no problem with the key in the same door. What if the key is not really a key? What if the key is the key to happiness? What if happiness isn’t what we think it is? What if it’s just an illusion of what makes us fall down the stairs. It’s never set in stone how our lives will end up. You have to fight through the obstacles in your way if you want to be happy in life. The same is true in the Meshes in the Afternoon. We see the lady running up and down stairs. I believe this is how her life has been. She has been in an up and down struggle with life. There have been hazards on her path to happiness; this is why we see her hesitate when we see the knife on the stairs. This is the same in life today. It’s never easy, but we keep pushing, we keep running up those stairs. We also see the lady in the film multiple times with a key. This key also has transformed into a knife. To me, in correlation to the stairs, the key serves the purpose of happiness. Even though the key can take her on the path of happiness, it’s what caused her suicide. When she dropped the key maybe this was a sign that she shouldn’t have gone inside. The key was a sign trying to save her life. When she preceded inside that was her unhappiness taking over. That’s what caused...

...In chapter 27, entitled, “Title IX at 40,” Mary Jo Kane analyzes the importance that Title IX has played for women in sports and corrected many misconceptions associated with the legislation. Following the enactment of Title IX, women’s participation in sports has increased substantially; however, work toward integration of women in the sports world is not complete. As Kane says in her conclusion, parity has not yet been attained (252). Therefore, not only do I agree with Kane, but also I will argue that headway in some aspects of athletics has actually been reversed since the implementation of Title IX. My main argument follows the disjunctive model as follows: Either Title IX improved all aspects of women’s participation in sports, or had a neutral affect on women’s sports, or Title IX diminished women’s contribution to sports in some ways, while improving others. Title IX did not completely improve women’s participation in sports. Therefore, Title IX has diminished some of women’s contributions to the sports world....

...Title IX is a law that states, "No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance..." —United States Code Section 20. There are most definitely people that would oppose this law, but most can agree. There should not be discrimination to women, and there shouldn’t have been from the start. Title IX provides women freedom to be able to do whatever men can do. Discrimination among women is huge and men feel that some sports should be kept for just men only. “The 1960’s were an especially important decade for transformations in American society, which supported the institution and protected of broad civil rights.” (Title IX: An Overview, Aliprandini, Michael) In 1972, less than 30,000 women nationwide participated in college athletics, while 170,000 men participated, according to the Washington Post. Now that Title IX is active, today more than 180,000 women play sports sponsored by their colleges. ”Women are 45 percent of the athletes at NCAA Division 1 institutions…” (Title IX: An Overview, Aliprandini, Michael) This shows that women have wanted to be involved in sports for a while. The number of women playing in college sports has increased 150,000 since Title IX started. This shows that women really have fought and are completely against the discrimination. “The law is applicable to all schools...

...Mark Zawada Title IX Title IX states, “no person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any educational program or activity receiving federal financial assistance”(Coakley). This law has been under scrutiny the last couple of decades. Mainly by those who have a misconception that the Title IX law has hurt male athletics in college sports. The fact of the matter is that Title IX does not affect the state of men’s athletics and has not had a negative affect towards male athletes. Title IX is a law that provides equal opportunities for both men and women. One of the biggest misconceptions is that Title IX has had a negative impact on male sports in intercollegiate athletics. People who are against Title IX state that men’s programs get cut due to the fact that universities have to provide equal scholarships to both men and women. The Women’s Sports Foundation states that, “Title IX's purpose is to create the same opportunity and quality of treatment for female athletes as is afforded male athletes. The law does not require reductions in opportunities for male athletes” (www.womenssportsfoundation.org). In fact, Erik Brady of the USA Today writes that, “Men’s teams in other sports have been added over the years to more than offset the teams dropped. She says schools that drop men's sports often give reasons other than Title IX. And she points out that of...

...An auto title, also known as a "pink slip," is a legal certificate of ownership issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). Among other information, it lists the current owner's name and address, the make, model and year of the vehicle, and the first date sold. An auto title is a very important document that is often kept in a safety deposit box or other secure location. When selling a vehicle, the auto title must be signed over by the seller. The buyer then takes the title to the DMV to register the car in his or her name. A fresh auto title is prepared by the DMV and mailed to the new owner, listing the buyer as the current owner. When that buyer wishes to sell the car, he/she must go through the same process of signing the auto title over. In addition to the owner or lien holder, the auto title also lists the vehicle identification number (VIN). This is a unique number that appears on a steel strip on the dash of the vehicle, inside the driver's door jam, or in the engine compartment. When purchasing a car from a dealership or private party, be sure to check that the VIN on the vehicle matches that on the auto title. The auto title also lists mileage at the last date of sale. This allows consumers to perform a cursory check to see if the odometer or mileage indicator on the car seems reasonable given the time that has passed since the auto title was generated. For example, if the title shows that the car had 65,020 miles on it two years ago, and the vehicle's odometer...

...Title IX: Equity or Elimination? Issues of gender equity have confronted American society since its inception. The Declaration of Independence specifically states that all "men" are created equal, leaving out women, just as the Constitution originally denied women the right to vote. Over the past two and a half centuries, however, women have striven to obtain equal rights. In 1848, for instance, leaders of the women's suffrage movement, such as Susan B. Anthony, adopted a Declaration of Sentiments calling for an equal rights amendment including women ("Women's Rights" par. 1). In 1920, the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution finally adhered to their wishes, giving women the right to vote. Despite these important steps, women in the United States, a nation founded on the ideals of freedom and equality, continue to battle for equal rights. A key moment in this fight for equality occurred in 1972 with the passage of the Title IX Amendment to the Equal Opportunity in the Education Act. Title IX states: "No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance" (Sadker par. 2). This piece of legislation has had a profound impact upon college athletics. The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) has interpreted Title IX as requiring an equal opportunity for male and female athletes at our...

...The Mabo case was initially seen as a revolution in Australian Law, but its legal effects have turned out to be largely illusory. Discuss this statement The Mabo vs. Queensland case was the first major land title claim made by Indigenous Australians for their traditional lands. When the Mabo case was resolved it was seen as a landmark decision by the High Courts and was an was the start of other of cases native title claims to be made against the States and territories. This was evident with the Wik case that followed in the years after Mabo. In order to determine the effect that the Mabo case has had on Australian Law and subsequent cases we need to look into the details of the case, what judgement was made, and how that judgement came about. Then the details of the judgement can be used to look at other decisions like Wik, and how the legislations and proceeding acts have been introduced. Discussed also will be the potential effect that the Mabo case had, not only with land rights and native title issues, but also to help with the reconciliation of the displaced aboriginal people upon British settlement. As you will read later there was a lot of potential for the governments of the day to use these decisions, but there was great reluctance to protect themselves and other members Australia. We can begin by having a look in further details of firstly the Mabo vs. The State of Queensland case, then the Wik vs. The State of Queensland case. You will note that although...

...There have been many laws passed to equalize the rights of different genders. One of these laws is Title IX. Title IX is an education amendment that took effect in 1972 and was signed by Richard Nixon. It makes school more equal for both genders. Title IX also “balanced” girls and boys education and athletics. An example is how girls cannot play football in high school while boys cannot play volleyball in high school. Title IX is a good thing for the most people, but should it be changed? Title IX has changed sports for girls. Before title IX was passed, only 1 out of 21 girls played a sport in high school.(Title IX official web site) It applies to all institutions that receive federal funding. In 1976, the NCAA challenged the legality of...

These thirty-seven words make up the civil rights law Title IX, which is widely known for reforming athletics, although it is never directly mentioned. First, the detailed history shows how many people worked rigorously to get the law passed. Furthermore, Title IX’s numerous tests show how verify schools complying with the law. Lastly, Title IX has increased the participation of women in athletics significantly over the past forty years. Title IX, the controversial federal civil rights act, has shaped athletics to how they are today by creating equal opportunities for female athletes. Flashback forty-one years to before Title IX changed the lives girls and women forever. Girls were not encouraged to play sports at a young and scholarships were not available for women to play athletics in college. People like Pat Summitt, arguably one of the best women’s basketball coaches ever, was not receiving fair treatment while playing collegiate basketball. In 1972, before Title IX was signed, Summitt played basketball for the University of Tennessee-Martin. The team was given uniforms that were used in the Physical Education classes and placed numbers on the back with tape....
