464 wordsIn the Mobile County Justice System, a non-violent juvenile inmate is treated very differently from a non-violent adult inmate. A recent interview with an ex-inmate that had been previously convicted as a youth and convicted again shortly thereafter as a young adult, demonstrated that the programs implemented at both facilities are haphazardly executed, showing little regard for future rehabilitation of an inmate. Upon interviewing Mr. Covington, I discovered that there are very generalized sent...

Soft Cheeses Cheese Milk
318 wordsNo matter how far archaeological finds go, there is evidence that cheese came into being in prehistoric times. Cheese can not really be said to have been invented. This delicious food must have resulted from the simple observation that milk left in a container ends up by coagulating, even more if it is hot.
