A significant amount of polices including mandatory minimums laws clog up the court system, allow the use of discretion by prosecutors, may cause law enforcement to use unethical methods, and contribute to overcrowding in jails and prisons. Ineffective, unsupported policies that have developed due to a perceived need or due to governmental incentive have caused the criminal justice system to become…
Technology, it's what everybody considers the thing of the future as it enhances and vastly improves our lives. Generation after generation, technology gets smarter and more capable to the needs of the consumer, or humans in this case. Researchers at the State University of New York in Buffalo have genetically engineered a way to change the color that can appear on a butterflies wings. Now this might seem crazy and what may be considered as the "Future" but may not be that insane or far…
to remember to remain calm because pigs respond better to a relaxed environment. Next year, I will try to choose black or darker skinned pigs so I don’t have to worry about them getting sunburned. I had to buy oil-free sunscreen (because oil can clog a pig’s pores) which is more expensive. The lighter the pig, the more maintenance is required. One thing I learned about myself through 4-H is that I am a very caring person. I put others (including my pigs) before myself. I constantly used my…

The epithelial cells in cystic fibrosis patients don’t produce viscous mucus like they should, so the thick mucus produced clogs both the airways and the intestinal track.

Health lifestyles are aspects of health that can be managed in order to live a longer, higher quality life with less illness. The American Heart Association lists “Seven small steps to big changes,” or “Life’s Simple 7” (http://www.heart.org/HEARTORG/Condi…
1. Of the different kinds of ecosystem services, you learned about, discuss two that are important in your local area, village, forests and/or nation. Each year in my town, lands are laid bare due to building or running of quarries, subdivisions, roads, clean fills as well as other developments or substantial regions of land are stripped of for plantation. Without proper erosion and sediment management, these actions can lead to accelerated onsite erosion and significantly increased…
first see her out gardening with a white apron over her business suit. Later on in the film it’s made clear the image is very important to Carolyn, hence not wanting to dirty her suit in any way. Lester even mentions that by no mistake Carolyn’s clogs match the handles on her gardening shears, which show us how, much of a perfectionist is. Carolyn lives to keep her life picture perfect, but when she is left alone for no one to see she has a totally different side to her. Another character in…
According to the Chairman of Food Science, Dr. George Borgstrom, in order to produce one pound of beef, 2,500 gallons of water are needed. Since, most people consume meat and meat by-products (dairy, cheese, and eggs), this statement by Dr. Borgstrom reveals that people are not educated about the major effects of animal husbandry. The government constantly suggest that humans should reduce water usage by taking shorter showers, checking faucets and pipes for leaks, and turning off the water…
