- Computer Fraud - 1,478 words
As much as $40 billion are lost every year due to
flourishing computer crimes. In 1993 alone,
Internet, the world wide system of computer
networks, was swindled out of approximately $2
billion, and about $50 million were stolen from
various companies such as GTE Corp., AT&T, Bell
Atlantic and MCI ( Meyer and Underwood 45).
Ironically these same organizations have been
collaborating with software manufacturers for an
expanded software production ( Cook 53 ).
Multinational corporations and international
authorities are threatened by these innumerable
white collar crimes since such crimes are most
difficult to prevent, and/or detect and highly
profitable to the offenders ( Stern and Stern 525
) ...

- Asbestoswhats This Stuff - 1,330 words
Six months ago, my husband and I purchased a small
piece of property in Manhattan, Kansas to start
our own computer repair business. The property was
in desperate need of remodeling, but we needed to
keep expenses to a minimium in order to make any
profit. We had two other employees besides
ourselves at this time, but as business started to
pick up, we had to hire five more technicians to
keep up with all the orders that were coming in.
Our space was getting limited and then we were
left with the decision that it was now time to get
ready to remodel the building. We hired our own
staff to help with the remodeling, at their
request for the overtime and their experience with
this type of work. ...

- Deciding For The Bomb - 853 words
There are many reasons that the Atomic bomb was
used on Japan. There are many that criticize the
bombing, but I support it. The main reasons for
President Harry Truman decided to drop the bomb
were, to save lives (American Lives), to bring
about a quicker resolution to the war, and to send
a message to the world that we now had military
supremacy. Growing up in a military family, (with
a dad a Vietnam vet, and a grandfather who would
have fought in Japan if we had invaded), may have
biased my personal opinions, but in my mind it is
all a matter of numbers when it comes to war. War
is a matter of how many lives each side has to
waste, and who runs low first generally
surrenders. War is hate b ...

- Analysis Of A Firm - 2,282 words
The Twentieth Century was profoundly affected by
the innovations of Henry Ford. The invention of
the automobile gave opportunities to multitudes of
people. These opportunities were not just in
transportation, but in occupation as well. Today,
no matter where a Ford is produced, the consumer
knows that they are receiving a high quality
product. The reason for this is that the majority
of Ford vehicle parts are designed by Ford
engineers, manufactured in Ford plants and
assembled in Ford product lines. When you purchase
a Ford product, you are truly purchasing Ford
quality. Ford is the number two manufacturer of
automobiles, second only to the General Motors
Corporation. This paper will analyz ...

- The Real Possibilities Of Cloning - 1,215 words
On February 22, 1999 news was announced that Dolly
the lamb was the first successful animal cloned.
Unlike the other cloning experiments done over the
past 15 years, this was the first successful clone
made with an adult cell. The cell was used to
activate and program the egg from which Dolly
grew. Past clones involved using the cell from a
fertilized embryo in the early stages of
development. As news of Ian Willmut's cloned lamb
got out across the globe, many people feared what
they thought could possibly never come true. With
the technology to clone identical animals, can
humans be cloned too? Since then topic of
discussion throughout the scientific world has
centered on the cloning of hum ...

... locally first. Mickey Mantle got his liver
quickly because he was classified the most
critically needy patient in the Dallas area
(Adato). The fifth myth is the minority candidates
wait longer owing to bias in the system. In fact,
no consideration is given to race, only to medical
facts. In many transplants the necessary matching
antigens are more likely to occur between people
of similar race or ethnicity. Blacks are one of
the lowest groups to give to organ donation. All
other organs can be shared between people of
different race, ethnicity or gender (Adato). The
sixth myth is that religion prohibits organ
sharing. In fact, only Orthodox Judaism opposed
organ donation; and now attitude ...

- Technology Is It Good Or Bad - 829 words
Matthew Fox is the president of the University of
Creation Spirituality and co-director of the
Naropa Institute's program in creation
spirituality. Fox states his distorted views of
what the world is coming to in an article called
Kosovo, Columbine, and Evil. These are the views
of a radical who thinks many of the
accomplishments of our time are destroying us as a
society. Fox mentions that the earth is destroying
itself by its technological culture. Technology
has improved the way of life for all and it is the
only way we will survive. The benefits from our
technological achievements can not be measured. I

- Eye For An Eye - 882 words
An Eye for an Eye As an American citizen, one
receives the rights of life, liberty, and
property. If someone is to rob one of these
freedoms of life, the court should also take away
his or her freedom. Murderers in the United Stated
receive too little of a punishment when they kill
another human being. Reinstating the death penalty
has hardly deterred criminals. This is because of
the easy sentences that criminals can receive
after they murder another human being. Presently
in the United States, the average sentence for
murder is six years. If a person were to kill
someone when they were twenty-three years old,
they would be out roaming the streets again before
they reach the age of thirty. ...

- Traffic Safety - 918 words
Driving an automobile is a risky and dangerous
activity. Every day, tragic accidents make the
headlines in newspapers and on the evening TV
news. Driving is an essential part of day-to-day
living for most people, and yet this ordinary
means of getting from one place to another can be
deadly. With so many people of all ages on the
road, practicing traffic safety is a must. Among
the most important steps to take for a safer
driving experience are knowing the possible
dangers associated with driving, learning simple
first-aid techniques, and being aware of how to
safely transport children. From the moment they
get behind the wheel, drivers are vulnerable to
many possible dangers. The best strat ...

- Deterrence - 530 words
The death penalty seems to be a controversial
issue for most people. Supporters claim that it
eliminates repeat offenders, deters potential
murderers, and is the ultimate retribution.
Opponents denounce it as murder, say that it does
not cause deterrence but rather promotes violence,
and claim that it introduces the chance of an
innocent person being executed. Of all the
arguments presented by both sides, one seems to be
more compelling and crucial than the
rest-deterrence. Will the use of the death penalty
cause potential murderers to be less likely to
commit murder? Deterrence may sound like a dull
word, but think of the implications. If the death
penalty really causes deterrence, then usi ...

- Mandatory Drug Testing - 1,880 words
It has become all too common for governmental
institutions across the nation to pass rules
saying that certain people are subject to random
drug testing. The central question that is raised
deals with the righteousness of being subjected to
testing even when there is no overwhelming
warrant. Under the protection of the unreasonable
search and seizures, including bodily searches, in
the fourth amendment of the constitution, certain
people, such as students and welfare recipients,
to name a few, feel that their rights as citizens
and human beings are being violated when they have
to submit to mandatory drug tests, but on the
other side there are those who believe that if
someone is willing to ...

- A Time To Die - 874 words
Active euthanasia is a necessary course of action
and should be allowed as long as the decision is
being made by the family members or the patient
themselves. The American Medical Association
claims active euthanasia is against its policy,
but improving the quality of life for a patient
is, so what happens if the patients life could be
made better by ending it? In a statement by the
American Medical Association, they claim the
intentional termination of the life of one human
being by another mercy killing-is contrary to that
for which the medical profession stands and is
contrary to the policy of the American Medical
Association. The American Medical Associations
policy is to save lives and ...

... not be developed to its current state. Since
the computers invention, society has changed
drastically. Computer technology is so helpful,
that it is even used to create newer, better
computer equipment. Almost everything today is
linked in some way, to computers. Before computers
were invented, very little was known about outer
space. With the technology we have now, we are
learning new things everyday. Computers are used
to follow the paths of asteroids and predict their
future movements. On 6 December 1997, a mile-wide
asteroid was discovered by astronomer Jim Scotti,

- Cell Phones Ban The Bans - 967 words
A young girl riding in her mothers car is killed
when a driver, talking on his cell phone, runs a
stop sign in Chester County, Pennsylvania. Further
south in a suburb of Camden, New Jersey, a driver
ploughs through a group of pedestrians. An elderly
couple dies as a result of his efforts to retrieve
a dropped cigarette. In western Ohio, a driver
causes serious injury to a father and son on their
way home from a fishing expedition. The offending
driver was changing stations on his radio and
unknowingly drifted into oncoming traffic. These
are all tragic stories of accidents that could
have been avoided. All of these incidents are also
covered in most states by existing careless
driving laws. ...

- Malcolm X - 740 words
Hero is defined as many things. One is a
mythological or legendary figure often of divine
descent endowed with great strength or ability. A
hero could also be a man admired for his
achievements and noble qualities. A hero is a
person that shows great courage and is an object
of extreme admiration and devotion. When people
think of a hero, they usually think of a strong
and big man like Superman and Batman. Their whole
life is dedicated to saving lives and helping
people. To me someone who helps save lives is a
hero, but there is also another type of hero. It
can be someone who stands up for their rights and
tries to change something that many people think
could never be changed. Malcolm X is ...

- Animal Rights - 1,511 words
Do you think a rat should have the right to go up
to your table and eat with you? No, of course not.
We are higher up in the world. This is what animal
right activists are fighting for. They say give
animals the rights they deserve. The truth is if
we give animals rights, we will be putting them on
the same level as the human race. I know that I do
not want to be on the same level as a rat. Animals
should not have rights! The use of animals in
medical research is necessary in developing safe
and effective medicines for treating human
diseases. Genetics has allowed the creation of
better, more precise mouse models for many serious
human conditions, including cancer, cystic

Descriptive essay written by Amy Retterath From
the time we were born until now, so many amazing
things have accumulated in our brains and in our
hearts. Everyday is a new adventure in which new
memories are created. Some things slowly fade with
time, but the more important things stay forever
vividly pungent in our minds. I believe that the
memories that are made in high school are the ones
that will undoubtedly be kept close with you for
the rest of your life. Our senior year is
definitely going to be the best year we've had
yet. It is overflowing with wonderful things. The
many events we have attended and the many more to

happiness, but yet, d ...

- Television Violence - 1,961 words
The other day while I was in a local McDonalds, I
noticed a disturbing scene. A father and two young
boys were waiting in line to get an early lunch.
The younger of the two boys lay dozing off, while
the other more energetic ran around, playing with
things as most five years olds do. The young boy
walking around saw a toy that was claimed to be
included in the infamous Happy Meal. He pleaded
quietly with his father, who told him that he
would get whatever toy came with the meal.
Unsatisfied, the little boy started to cry, and
then proceeded to throw a fit. The father,
seemingly at a loss for words told the boy to calm
down. The little boy then threw himself on the
floor and started to kick. ...
