importance of an individual rather than a group or
community....

Forest Roads And Their Effect On Water Quality

Journal of Forestry. Both discuss the different
techniques and methods for trying to limit the
amount of silt that contaminates roads due to
disturbance. The first article, ? What We Know-

Fake Id Jail Time

How do fake IDs assist in illegal activity in
underage minors? We think that with the use of
fake IDs, minors are able to obtain things they
would not be able to get without a fake id, thus
increasing the use of alcohol (going to bars), and
underage smoking. It also increases other things
that minors would not be able to do, such as get
into over 18 clubs, R rated movies, buy spray
paint and weaponry such as box cutters. The
problems of the underage youth using fake IDs to
buy substances, and do...
