criminalization of the knowing exposure of HIV before unprotected sex. However, as I read through serval of my empirical research articles, I noticed that a lot of the studies dealing with the criminal transmission of HIV and have been increasing HIV exposure. First, future research that will reduce the spread of HIV should include how the rates of sexually transmitted diseases impact the public health systems and practices; if these practices are enforced after a high-risk infection then this…
In the cases of Haines, Hinkhouse, and Smallwood they are all being charged with attempted murder. In the case of Haines he was being charged with attempted murder, because he had the knowledge of caring AIDS and was spraying his blood to a police officer with the intention to infect him with AIDS.

1. Forest Grove in Saskatoon is an area that has not had much focus on their community’s personal and local health. I have been living here since September and I get the impression that people keep to themselves more than necessary since we do not have any substantial community centers or local community events to bring people together. This atmosphere may affect a person’s personal health because of the potential for people to be isolated in their own homes, not feeling welcomed by their…
The war against HIV …. The presence of HIV was tracked back to 1920 in Africa. There have been numerous attempts to stop HIV contraction through precautionary measures and detection and prevent progression once HIV has infected. The development of an effective process to fight the infection is crucial to sustain the disease and prevent spread, especially in poor and populated countries. But what if infection of HIV could be obstructed all together? Recent studies have explored the effect of…

I see SPBL as an extension of ‘life long learning’ (Olckers, Gibbs, Duncan, 2007: 2) as it aids me in drawing upon my prior knowledge, offering ‘modern methods of learning’ and encourages me to disprove myths and generate academic supported facts, that were suggested by Olckers, Gibbs and Duncan (2007:2). SPBL has made more aware of the people…

Dear Editor, The article “Women Need Dignity More Than Sex Without Consequence”, Aug. 22, by Grace-Marie Turner states that women do not have to be responsible for their actions and that the government will pay for them to have sex without worrying about pregnancy. She also argues that when government funding is involved ethics and religious liberty must be upheld. Government-funded contraceptives are not an issue about morality or possible sexual consequences – it is about providing women with…
limitations on Foreign Aid include whether or not it is effective, deciding between a planner and searcher, and misallocation of provided aid by government officials. The billions of dollars that have been collected worldwide, and specifically designated to foreign aid, have been abused by politicians in developing countries and in turn, have registered as not generating an economic growth or negatively affecting a developing country’s economy. The big argument within economics and foreign aid…
