There is Jacksonville Port Authority (Jaxport) that controls three cargo terminals, a cruise terminal and an intermodal rail terminal. Blount Island (controlled by the Marines) is one terminal that I am familiar with because of the military. This facility has some of the tightest security even more than some operational bases.…

    Protocol for the Prohibition of the Use in War of Asphyxiating, Poisonous or Other Gases, and of Bacterial Methods of Warfare (Geneva Protocol) was penned and signed on 17 June, 1925. This was a treaty signed by the Allies at the close of World War I, which was actually just an extension and re-verification of the Treaty of Versailles (signed in 1919) prior to WWI. The Geneva Protocol furthered the Treaty of Versailles in that it expanded the weapons ban to include a ban on bacteriological warfare. In 1969, this protocol was further expanded to include CS gas agents and harassing agents (probably due to their use by the U.S. during the Vietnam War).…

    Allowing kids under the age of fourteen to play tackle football can have severe consequences to their young minds. I personally do not like football but I’m sure there are other ways that younger kids can play football without tackling each other and getting hurt. “ Goldstein and his colleagues advocate for no tackle football before 14 because children’s bodies, particularly their necks and upper bodies, aren’t strong enough to counteract the bobbling of the head and shaking of the brain that occurs during tackles” (Kounang 1). Not only does that sound painful but why would a parent want that for their child.…

    1. I think that I would rather have a conversation with others in phone because it limits the chances of misinterpretations. I mostly text my friends or family because if they’re busy with something, it is just more convenient for them to check their phone and see that I texted them. Another great reason I rather text is because I come from a big family and if there was an emergency, one person’s text can be sent to everyone in my family text group. The only thing that I hate is because I can send anything with emotion in the message, so conflicts would arise.…
