House Of Lords Plays An Important
1,386 words
Clearly, in such a populated country such as Great

as the House of Lords is necessary. Although the
House of Lords cannot execute much power, compared
to the House of Commons, it is a vital part of
British Government. The House of Lords plays an
important part in revising, potentially delaying
legislation and as well as keeping a check on

Catch And Release In Fishing
1,302 words
Every bass fisherman fishes for the same reason,
in hopes of catching a ten-pound-plus bass. This
dream will not be fulfilled if bass fishermen, as
a brotherhood, do not practice catch and release.
Americas love affair with the catch-and-release
ethic has had a profound impact on the sport of

this valuable natural resource. Without question

wintry climate of New England and alone: "
All out-of-doors looked darkly in at him / Through

Record Keeping Private Sector

Public service is essential to protecting America
and its citizens. It is responsible for ensuring
that our air and water are clean, food is fresh,
and material products are safe. Without public

and consequently, decay. Thus, the government does
a great deed in providing civil service that is
often taken for granted. Coming from a family that
has been public service oriented has shown me the
value of public service, and even steered me in
