International Breastfeeding Journal - 0 views

  •  
    The American focus on the sexual purpose of breasts, rather than the physiological function of breasts, has serious public health consequences. Discomfort with breastfeeding in public lowers breastfeeding rates, which in turn negatively affects women's and children's short- and long-term health.

Gun Control Debate: When Ammo Runs Short, Should Citizens Come Before Government? - 0 views

  •  
    Private citizens don't need ammo two or three years in the future.They need it at prices the poor and middle class citizen, who needs self-protection the most, can afford. We don't need single women being raped and murdered because they couldn't afford, or couldn't buy, ammunition for their personal firearm.

Mad about Brock Turner's sentence? It's not uncommon - 0 views

  •  
    Many of us have heard about the Brock Turner case and a lot of people aren't happy about the outcome of it. Yes, he was sent to jail, but he raped a woman and the majority of people believe that he didn't get the time in prison (he didn't even go to prison) that he deserved. He was just recently sent home from jail. This article advised that in the past college athletes have committed crimes and were not given the right punishment for them. It also talks about Turner being classified as a sex offender possibly being worse than sending him to prison, which is actually a good point.
  •  
    This is such a horrible case. It shows you how money and athletes can get away with things.

How states are dealing with older drivers - 2 views

  •  
    The article covers the personal freedom issue of whether or not older people should be allowed to drive. This article introduces different ideas of how different states are dealing with older drivers. Some states are requiring more frequent testing, or some sort of evaluation.

    I do feel that states should have people at a certain age be tested more often. I work in Sun City and almost everyday I see an accident or someone driving where they should not be driving.
  •  
    I think that once you get to a certain age that if you still want to drive you should be required to get tested again to be sure that you will be okay out on the road, its nothing against older people driving its more of a safety issue and I see that in this article. More frequent testing is the right move for the states that are starting to require that. Hopefully soon that will show all over America.
  •  
    I think this is a great article. I think for a lot of elderly people the possibility of having their drivers license taken away makes them feel as if they just lost that piece of end independent living. I do agree the elderly should be tested to make sure they aren't at great risks for accidents. This articles speaks about classes older people can take to help them be safer drivers. I this is a great article to share with many people.
  •  
    Long story short. All elders should go through REGULAR testing to continue to drive! These old people are really acting out! This article helps identify lots of points that need to be taken to keep our elders safe!

  •

  • ...3 more comments...

    This article was very informational on the different types of bottled water. Many people don't take the time to actually educate themselves on the differences. It's very helpful to know what kind of filtration and the process each water company goes through.
  •  
    I didn't even know this was an issue so this has really got me thinking and pretty freaked out so thank you I guess.
  •  
    I like how Consumer Reports breaks it down for you. I've heard of this issue before, but with so many labels I'm never quite sure what they all mean. It's also a shame that we can't trust our local water supply to provide us adequate drinking water without all of the chemicals.
  •  
    Wow! Thats interesting. I always wondered what the difference was between spring water and purified. I like that it showed the information in a chart whether than a long paragraph to read.
  •  
    The article is short and to the point. Like myself, I believe that there are numerous people who are unaware of where their water comes from. I would have liked the article to include information on the types of materials or plastic used to bottle our water as well.
